Abstract

The increasing use of authentic English materials in Indonesian English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms has highlighted the need to understand the syntactic characteristics of newspaper discourse. However, limited studies have comprehensively examined the syntactic features of English news articles and their implications for English language teaching in Indonesia. This study aimed to analyze the syntactic features employed in The Jakarta Post news articles and explore their pedagogical implications for English language teaching. A qualitative descriptive design was adopted using document analysis. The data consisted of twenty news articles selected through purposive sampling from The Jakarta Post. The collected data were analyzed through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing following the interactive model proposed by Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña. The findings revealed that all four major sentence types—simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex—were identified, with complex sentences occurring most frequently. The analysis also indicated the extensive use of coordination and subordination to organize information effectively in authentic journalistic discourse. These findings suggest that The Jakarta Post provides authentic linguistic input that can support the teaching of English syntax, reading comprehension, and academic writing. Consequently, authentic newspaper texts can serve as valuable instructional resources for enhancing students' syntactic awareness and bridging the gap between grammatical knowledge and real-world language use

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the influence of linguistic politeness strategies on effective classroom interaction and student communication performance at Universitas Harapan Medan. The research employed a mixed-methods approach using a sequential explanatory design, integrating quantitative and qualitative data to provide a comprehensive understanding of the implementation of linguistic politeness strategies in classroom learning. The research process consisted of preliminary observation, needs analysis, instrument development and validation, questionnaire administration, classroom observation, semi-structured interviews, and statistical as well as thematic data analysis. Based on the illustrative simulated dataset, the findings indicate that the implementation of linguistic politeness strategies contributes positively to the development of more effective classroom interaction and improved student communication performance. Lecturers' use of positive politeness strategies promotes a respectful, collaborative, and supportive learning environment, encouraging students to participate actively, express ideas confidently, and engage in meaningful academic discussions. The simulated structural model further suggests that effective classroom interaction functions as a mediating variable that strengthens the relationship between linguistic politeness strategies and student communication performance. These illustrative findings highlight the potential value of integrating pragmatic politeness principles into higher education teaching practices to enhance instructional communication and foster student-centered learning. Future research should employ empirical data from multiple higher education institutions to validate these relationships and improve the generalizability of the findings.
