Abstract

This research aims to analyse the transitivity system of Pembangunan Berketahanan Iklim (PBI) documents, one of the key climate governance policy documents in Indonesia, based on an ecolinguistic approach. Using Halliday’s transitivity system (2014), researchers explore clues to the world experience of policymakers in positioning the relationship between humans and their environment through language features in texts. Also employing the same transitivity system, this research applies a mixed-method, integrating both qualitative and quantitative techniques to provide a comprehensive analysis. The authors utilized AntConc 4.2.2. to analyse the corpus of 46,789 tokens. Concordances containing keywords: lingkungan, alam, habitat, ekosistem, and hayati were analyzed using the transitivity system framework to identify the distribution of process types and participant roles within the corpus. Research findings show a significant prevalence of material processes, indicating a focus on actions and events. Furthermore, the analysis shows the patterns of the active roles of human participants, actor obscuring, as well as environmental keywords that fill the role of passive participants and circumstantial phrases that clarify the tradition of human domination over the environment. These transitivity patterns indicate stylistic features of an ambivalent discourse that perpetuates human domination over the environment. From the perspective of Living! ecosophy (Stibbe, 2021), language patterns that still represent anthropocentric perspectives are incompatible with sustainable ecological discourse. This research of transitivity analysis enriches the study of climate governance discourse in policy documents in the Indonesian context.

Abstract

This study aims to identify English vocabulary learning strategies used by non-English major students in the Intensive English Class (IEC) program, as well as explore the difficulties they face in the learning process. Using a qualitative case study approach, this research involved four students and four IEC tutors at a private university in Barito Kuala, South Kalimantan. Data were collected through classroom observations and in-depth interviews. The results of this study reveal that students use various strategies to learn vocabulary, namely recording new vocabulary along with its meaning and example sentences, memorizing by repeating, watching movies, or listening to English music, using online dictionaries or translator applications and asking directly to tutors or classmates. The strategy most often used by students is to record new vocabulary along with its meaning and example sentences, then the least used is asking directly to tutors or classmates. The main difficulties faced by students are lack of motivation and interest, as well as difficulties in understanding and applying vocabulary in various contexts, especially related to changes in word forms in sentences. The implication of the research is that students can increase their motivation in vocabulary acquisition through fun learning activities. Furthermore, teachers are also expected to be more creative, innovative, and give appreciation to students so as to create a pleasant learning atmosphere.
