Abstract

The present research aimed to analyze the cultural contents available in digital learning materials for Junior High School Students called myenglishstep.com. The data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis under two frameworks, particularly the cultural categories framework by Chao (2011) and the framework of the cultural dimensions by Moran (2001). The results revealed 1.472 cultural contents, covering all five cultural categories: Source Culture, Target Culture, International Culture, Intercultural Interaction, and Universality across Cultures. Further, the cultural contents are also represented through Cultural Dimensions, namely Products Dimension, Practices Dimension, Perspectives Dimension, Communities Dimension, and Person Dimension. The cultural contents mainly appeared as much as 1160 times in the Universality across Cultures and were presented through products created and invented by the social communities approximately 623 times. These results, to some extent, show that material developers are aware of the importance of cultural content to cater to diversity in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims at investigating the way Digital Citizenship Competencies (DCC) are incorporated into digital learning materials (DLM) in a web-based learning platform called myenglishstep.com. By compiling 115 DLM of 7th up to 9th Grade and utilizing the content analysis method, the finding shows skills dimension is found to be the highest incorporation, followed by the knowledge dimension. In contrast, the attitudes and values dimension showed low occurrences compared to the previous dimension. Knowledge, skills, and attitudes dimensions of DCC are mostly incorporated in all DLM categories through tasks, contents, and visuals, while values dimensions are incorporated through contents for the most part and tasks. Therefore, these findings are expected to raise people's awareness of digital citizenship competencies and aid teachers and stakeholders in providing reliable and varied digital learning materials.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to undertake a thorough study of a news article entitled "31 Policemen Questioned in Kanjuruhan Stadium Tragedy" by looking at both its contextual and textual elements. To analyze the data, the research used a content analysis and discourse analysis design. While the contextual study relied on Dell Hymes' ethnography of communication, notably the Speaking Model (Hymes, 1974), the textual analysis concentrated on the coherence devices given by Halliday and Hasan (1976). All essential elements, such as the setting, participants, ends, act order, key, instruments, and norms, were identified, according to the contextual analysis. The four content categories of reference, substitution, ellipsis, and conjunction were found in the textual analysis; however, the article did not fully contain all sub-categories.

Abstract

This study aims to find out the forms used in citation practices of ELESP undergraduate students’ theses at Universitas Negeri Jakarta. This research uses both quantitative and qualitative methods, which employ a corpus-based analysis. The analysis is conducted by adopting Hyland (1999)’s framework of citation category and citation integration as proposed by Swales (1990). The data source of this research consists of 50 theses in English Language Teaching (ELT), especially the introduction and literature review chapters, written by ELESP undergraduate students published from 2018 to 2022 in the repository of UNJ. The results revealed that ELESP undergraduate students frequently use summary and generalization in the introduction and literature review chapter. Furthermore, the use of integral and non-integral forms in the two chapters have nearly the same frequency, which indicates that the students focus on the actions of researchers as well as emphasize the research itself in the cited sources.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the nature of collaboration in an EFL collaborative editing task, particularly the evidence of first language (L1) use and patterns of interaction that students used and formed when working with a passage editing task. The study recruited 22 students in grade eleven of SMA Xaverius, Pringsewu. The study follows the framework of Storchs’ dyadic interaction pattern (2002) and Storch and Aldosari's L1 function to code and analyze its data. The data of this study were transcripts of 11 pairs of students participating in an EFL editing task. This study found that the number of first-language use is bigger than the target language use. In percentage, the student average produced around 55,7% of words in the first language and 43,3% of words in the second language. The main function of the L1 is for grammar deliberation, followed by the deliberations over vocabulary (20,2% of all L1 turns), task management (11,1% of all L1 turns), mechanics deliberation (5% of all L1 turns), and last is generating ideas (4,5% of all L1 turns). The main interaction pattern used by the learners was the collaborative pattern (eight out of eleven pairs). The remaining pairs fit dominant/dominant, dominant/passive, and Expert/novice for each of the pair, respectively.

Abstract

This study investigates parents' perceptions of early childhood English language education in Jakarta, Indonesia. With an increasing emphasis on English proficiency in a globalized world, understanding parental attitudes toward introducing English early age is essential. This research employed a mixed-methods approach, utilizing a survey questionnaire to gather insights from 52 parents, consisting of 40 mothers and 12 fathers, whose children were between 3 to 6 years old. The survey revealed that 92% of parents agreed that early English education enhances language development, 88% believed it provides a competitive edge, 83% considered it crucial for opportunities, and 74% saw its potential to boost cognitive skills. In-depth interviews were conducted with 16 participants, selected through purposive sampling, to delve deeper into parental perceptions, providing further insight. The findings underscore parents' collective recognition of the positive impact of early English education on language development and cognitive skills, presenting a valuable resource for parents seeking informed decisions about their children's early language learning journey. The study offers input for educators, policymakers, and curriculum designers aiming to create effective early English programs resonating with parental perspectives.
