Abstract

Language and literature are essentially connected, and one cannot function without the other. Thus, this study analyzes the language functions used by the main characters in the short story The Summer Solstice by Nick Joaquin. This study aims to determine the types of Language functions in the short story and identify the most dominant language function used by the main characters. Moreover, the study also aims to analyze the context of the language functions identified. The researchers used Janet Holmes’ Theory of Language Function (2013) to analyze the utterances of the main characters and Dell Hymes' SPEAKING Model to analyze the context of the language functions in each utterance. The researchers then applied the descriptive qualitative design to systematically analyze the data. The result of this study shows that out of the eight (8) language functions identified by Janet Holmes (2013), only seven (7) types of language functions were found in the short story, namely expressive, directive, heuristic, referential, metalinguistic, phatic functions. On the other hand, poetic function was not found in this research. The findings revealed that this story dominantly uses expressive functions, in which the speaker's emotion is what captures the interest of the readers.

Abstract

In recent years, due to the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI), emotional intelligence (EI) has become increasingly valuable as its uniquely human qualities cannot be replicated by machines (Beck & Libert, 2017). As an impact of this phenomenon, EI has also become a topic that is acknowledged as important in the educational landscape, including Indonesia’s. This is mandated by the current Indonesian curriculum, namely Kurikulum Merdeka (Merdeka Belajar Curriculum). The purpose of this study is to discuss the ways in which EI skills are taught in the English textbook used by 12th graders in Indonesian public high schools. This study adapted the content analysis method used by Babaei & Abdi (2014), which used Goleman's Emotional Intelligence Checklist to observe the emotional intelligence components in the dialogues, reading texts, and exercises in the textbook. The result of the study shows that 46.6% of the examined dialogues, 78.6% of the examined reading texts, and 40.9% of the examined exercise elements contain various EI components, including those required by the curriculum regulations. They are included in the content in the form of character dialogue and description, advice, questions or discussion and project activities.

Abstract

This study investigates the alignment between students' perceptions of their lecturers' teaching styles and their expectations in English language education under Indonesia’s Kurikulum Merdeka. Using a quantitative research design, data was collected from 200 undergraduate students through two instruments: the Teaching Style Perception Scale (TSPS) and the Student Expectations Scale (SES). The results reveal strong alignment in student-centered and inquiry-based learning areas, where students valued active participation and critical inquiry. Lecturers were perceived as knowledgeable facilitators, with the Expert (mean: 4.2) and Facilitator (mean: 4.1) dimensions receiving the highest scores. However, a mismatch was identified between students' expectations for less control and autonomy and their perception of lecturers' adherence to more traditional, teacher-centered methods, particularly in the Formal Authority dimension (mean: 3.8). A significant correlation (r = 0.72, p < 0.01) was found between students’ perceptions of facilitators and their expectations for student-centered learning. These findings highlight the need for further adaptation toward inquiry-based and collaborative learning approaches to meet students’ evolving preferences better. The study underscores the relevance of Kurikulum Merdeka in fostering a more dynamic, student-driven learning environment while encouraging lecturers to reduce reliance on formal authority and increase opportunities for independent learning
