Abstract

Cooperative learning has frequently been studied experimentally, with evidence of its numerous benefits. However, the extent to which students understand their role in enhancing the method's positives is still being determined, and how learners perceive their interactions should be noticed. This study examined students of English as a Foreign Language perceived group interaction at different proficiency levels (proficient and less proficient) during online learning. The study employed a quantitative research design using a survey technique with statistical data analysis. Data showed insignificant differences in perceptions between the proficient and the less proficient students with (p>0.05). Thus, proficient and less proficient students could provide learning opportunities when they worked collaboratively. Moreover, all students preferred to work collaboratively regardless of their proficiency level. These findings suggest that proficiency differences were not the decisive factor affecting the nature of students’ interaction in groups. Instead, the pattern of interaction co-constructed by learners may have a more significant impact on students learning performance.

Abstract

After years of learning English, Indonesian prospective workers tend to make many errors in the use of tense aspects in oral communication. The study was aimed at reporting the main factors of the realization of tense aspect usage in oral communication. It has supported the research of Aditya and Chairuddin (2021), that the respondents found difficulties in the use of the correct tense aspects in conversation. The data were collected by interview method using the instruments of twelve questions, each of which used the twelve types of tense aspects, to the thirty students of Kulon Progo Work Training Center. The results demonstrated that they still lacked an understanding of the meaning, usage, and function of 12 types of tense aspects in spoken English. The errors in the equivalence of the time reference between the questions and answers were 82,78% of the dialogues. The first factor they made errors was that respondents tend to do overgeneralizations by using 79% of sentences in Simple Present Tense as the dominant tense aspect. The second factor was that they still defended using the time marking system of L1 in L2. Even though the rough translation of the dialogues in Bahasa could be 93,33 % accepted in Bahasa’s meaning, the original answers in English were not permissible in English grammar. The realization of using the English time-marking system in oral communication is that the respondents tend to make many errors and establish it being their standard language among the communities.

Abstract

Vocabulary learning is vital for EFL students. Students face difficulties in learning new English vocabulary. Meanwhile, few studies have investigated the strategies used by Indonesian English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners to learn new words and the relationship with their gender differences. And there need to be more studies that examine the vocabulary learning strategies (VLSs) of Indonesian students studying abroad in the ESL context. Considering the increasing number of Indonesian students studying in ESL communities, this study aims to identify the vocabulary learning strategies employed by Indonesian university students who are pursuing their studies at universities in Malaysia. There were 183 students (89 males and 94 females) enrolled in various degree programmes randomly selected in this study. The Vocabulary Learning Strategies Questionnaire from(Almabrouk, 2017),  based on (Schmitt, 1997)’s taxonomy, was adopted as the data collection instrument. The findings showed that the most frequent strategy employed by the respondents was 'trying to develop vocabulary knowledge by watching English TV channels (e.g. movies, songs, documentaries from the metacognitive category. Meanwhile, the least frequent strategy employed by the respondents was 'ask the lecturer for translation of the new word into an L1 translation' from the social category. The results also indicated that there were no statistically significant differences in the use of VLSs based on gender.

Abstract

The study is mainly aimed at exploring the Sufistic phenomenon presented in Tejo and Kamba’s book Tuhan Maha Asik by applying deconstructive analysis. Besides, this study also finds out the hidden philosophical meaning revealed in the opposite expression in the book as recommended by Derrida. In this context, deconstruction is concerned not with the discovery of ‘truth’ or of distilling correct conclusions, but rather with the process of questioning itself. It is a process characterized by uncertainty and indeterminacy. It is interesting to explore and reveal the internal logic of ideas and meaning. Tejo and Kamba succeeded in using paradox as a weapon to reveal the truth of thinking from two opposite points on the book. Two contrasting ideas are used to produce an in-depth truth. The characteristics or style of deconstruction in works of Sufism are discussed specifically from what is written on book. From the results of the analysis, it can be concluded that many statements in the book Tuhan Maha Asik describe the phenomenon of God. This characterizes that this book presents many events that are Sufistic in nature. The quotations displayed to prove that this understanding must continue to be evaluated in order to create depth and self-awareness of God's existence.
