Abstract

Vocabulary mastery is crucial for nursing students to effectively communicate in English. This study aimed to develop and validate a tailored computer-assisted vocabulary learning (CAVL) intervention to improve nursing students' retention of English lexicon, which is essential for healthcare communications. The CAVL program was designed using the Moodle platform and focused on four thematic units that targeted essential nursing vocabulary. The learning process followed research-based principles of vocabulary instruction, including multimodal introduction, reinforced retrieval, and contextual repetition. This study utilized a research and development methodology to conduct iterative needs analyses, design refinement, and rigorous evaluation protocols. Expert reviews, prototype testing, post-intervention vocabulary tests, and delayed assessments were used to gather data and make data-driven improvements. Quantitative analysis evaluated the effectiveness of this approach for 100 Indonesian nursing students. Vocabulary assessments were administered before, immediately after, and two weeks after the intervention, revealing significant improvements in terminology knowledge following the implementation of CAVL. Importantly, scores remained stable during the delayed assessment, demonstrating durable retention. These results are consistent with previous literature on the benefits of contextual and multimodal vocabulary learning. The CAVL prototype facilitated learning and effectively improved vocabulary retention outside of the classroom. This research provides an adaptable framework for technologically-assisted language mastery, which is essential for the next generation of nursing education. Further studies can explore the application of this framework in allied healthcare fields and the transition to practice in nursing education.

Abstract

This study aims to examine gender representation in directive speech acts of Indonesian language teachers in Pasaman Regency Automotive Department Vocational Schools. Included in the type of qualitative research, this research applies descriptive analysis method. The research data is in the form of directive speech of male teachers and female teachers in Indonesian language learning at SMK Department of Automotive Pasaman Regency. It can be concluded that Indonesian teachers use various forms of directive speech acts, such as directions, orders, and instructions to students. Variants of the use of directive speech acts also show variations between male and female teachers, with three dominant variants commonly used by male teachers and five variants commonly used by female teachers. The results also reveal that female teachers tend to use the speech act of ordering or commanding as the dominant form, although they also show a sense of solidarity by using the speech acts of suggesting and advising. On the other hand, male teachers are more inclined to the direct approach and commanding without preamble. This difference reflects the complexity of the relationship between men's and women's language and thinking in the learning context.

Abstract

Indonesian is an asset for the Indonesian nation which is always maintained both in the realm of Education and non-Education. Therefore, Indonesian is expected to be global for other countries. Related to this, the Indonesian program for Foreign Speakers (BIPA) as a bridge in introducing the language to the world, namely through four language skills. One of them is writing skills. This study aims to determine students' ability to write Indonesian vocabulary through the  Indonesian teaching program for foreign speakers (BIPA) at Darul Maaref School Foundation, Satun, Thailand. This research method is descriptive qualitative with a case study approach. The results of the study found that written language errors in  Darul Maaref School Foundation students included the use of incomplete sentence types, namely 11 data, word arrangement 3 data, capital letters 96  data, pronouns 1  data, prepositions 15  data, word choice 27  data, spelling 46  data, hyphen 3  data, and affix 2 data. The factors causing students' written language  errors  are  caused by  the influence of spoken language, students have not fully understood Indonesian grammar, students have not carefully  written Indonesian, and BIPA learning has not been effective.  Related to these findings, BIPA teaching materials are needed by emphasizing Indonesian that are in accordance with the rules of Indonesian Spelling  (EBI)  and presented as innovative and fun BIPA learning for students.

Abstract

Fatwas are a form of persuasive argumentative discourse. This paper aims to describe the superstructure and structure of fatwa arguments regarding Akidah and Religious Traditions. The source of this paper's data is all fatwas of the fatwa commission of the Indonesian ulema council from 1975 to 2017. The method used to collect data and manage data is the document method. Discourse analysis methods are used to analyze data. The discussion of superstructure aspects utilizes Ashqar theory (1976) while Walthon theory (2006) is used to examine the structure of fatwa argumentation. The superstructure aspect of fatwas is realized by the Fatwa Commission of the Indonesian Ulema Council differently. All fatwa texts have presented substantial elements but formal elements are not included. The structure of fatwa argumentation is understood by the format of the text. For fatwas in the format of decrees, premise markers are identified through the vocabulary of "pay attention", "read", "weigh", and "remember" while conclusion markers are presented with the vocabulary of "decide", "establish", and "fatwa". Directly formatted fatwa texts are identified through inference, but some texts lack a premise and inference structure.

Abstract

As generative language models like ChatGPT and Google Gemini gain prominence in education, their efficacy in specific contexts, such as Indonesian English as a Foreign Language (EFL) instruction, still needs to be explored. This study investigates the pedagogical affordances and constraints of these models as perceived by Indonesian EFL sophomores, aiming to understand their contribution to active learning in language acquisition. Using a qualitative approach, we conducted open-ended questionnaires with 40 sophomore students from an Indonesian university's English department. Thematic content analysis was employed to analyse the data. Findings reveal that ChatGPT offers authentic conversational simulations and versatile content-based instruction, while Google Gemini's strength lies in its multilingual capabilities. However, limitations such as linguistic complexity and rigid conversational structures were also identified. The study suggests these models can enhance active learning experiences, particularly in conversational practice and interdisciplinary content exploration, though their efficacy depends on factors like learner proficiency and internet access. We conclude that integrating these models into EFL instruction requires careful consideration of their affordances and limitations. This study contributes culturally-specific insights to AI in education research, with implications for curriculum designers, educators, and policymakers in developing countries, emphasising the need for adaptive and inclusive approaches in AI-enhanced EFL education.

Abstract

This research is about the analysis of the American teenagers’ slang translation strategies in Easy A movie subtitles based on Gottlieb’s theory. Translation is seen as important aspect in helping the target communicant understand the content and messages of the utterance. Besides, slangs, though hardly ever discussed in classroom setting, are commonly used in social context, and in movies. Easy A is a movie talking about school life which is close to students’ daily activities. This research aims to know the English slangs appeared in Easy A movie, the strategies the translator uses in translating his or her subtitles of the slang expressions from the English language as the source language (SL) to the Indonesian language as the target language (TL), and the most strategies used.. In this study, the researcher uses a qualitative method to analyse the data. The slang expressions are analysed by selecting and marking the utterances and text containing slang expressions. To support the research, the researcher uses some online dictionaries to determine if the slang is originally from America and to find each slang meaning. The result of this research shows, there are seven strategies used by the translator or subtitle in translating slang expressions: Expansion, Paraphrase, Transfer, Imitation, Condensation, Decimation, and Deletion. Three strategies are not found. They are Transcription, Dislocation, and Resignation strategy. Based on this result, the most often used by the translator is Transfer strategy. It is because the translator translated every slang expression completely. Paraphrase strategy is in second place. It indicates that the translator attempts to make the slang expressions easier to be understood by the audience.

Abstract

Terminology has been identified as one of the impediments towards the intellectualisation and the subsequent use of African languages as languages of teaching and learning in specialised fields of knowledge. Although some terminologies have so far been compiled for specialised fields of knowledge, they seem not to be receiving acceptance in the functional spaces particularly the andragogic and pedagogic contexts. The central argument of the paper is that terminology needs to be created through the use of African languages in the process of teaching and learning in andragogic spaces instead of creating them through intuition, translation or knowledge of language. The communicative theory of terminology is used in the paper to argue for the adoption of specialised subject fields terminologies that are created in functional spaces. A sample of terms selected from isiNdebele and isiZulu that have so far been created for use in physics were used to critique the strategies that were adopted in their compilation. Terms for use in teaching and learning need not to be prescribed to the users but they should be harvested from functional academic spaces and then compiled for the writing of books and use in the classroom. A systematic way where the end users are involved in the process of term creation for specialised subject fields needs to be adopted.
