Abstract

Literary theory is the systematic study of the nature of literature and of the method for analysing literary works.

Abstract

The textbooks published in the Merdeka curriculum edition have been prepared based on the Pancasila Student Profile to strengthen Pancasila-based character education. However, English textbooks published by different publishers tend to display western cultural values which can contribute to reducing the character values of Pancasila. For this reason, this research was carried out with the aim of finding out how far the values of the Pancasila student profile are integrated in English textbooks, and to find out teachers' views on books that integrate the values of the Pancasila Student Profile. This research used mixed methods with data sources from two Merdeka curriculum English textbooks are Bahasa Inggris;Tingkat lanjut and Pathway to English for class XI high school and 3 English teachers who used English books published by the Ministry of Education and Culture and the Erlangga publisher. The research instrument is document analysis checklist prepared based on a grid of results from the six values of the Pancasila Student Profile and interviews about Pancasila values which have been integrated in the book used. The results of quantitative research show that books published by the Ministry of Education and Culture are integrated (72%) and books published by Erlangga are very integrated 81%). The most prominent integrated value in each book is the Critical Thinking dimension which is most prominent, especially in the exercise section. Meanwhile, the independent dimension is the least integrated. Second, the results of teacher interviews show that the highest percentage of integrated Pancasila profile values of students are in the dimensions of faith, fear of god almighty, and noble morals in the second book already presents how students should, by writing letters of gratitude and folk tales about disbelief while in the independent dimension the lowest percentage of integration, this is because the integration of Pancasila student profile values is less concrete and less varied in the application of Self and Situation Understanding and Self-Regulation in everyday life. In conclusion, the integrated scores of the Pancasila student profile in both English textbooks are integrated with different percentage integration levels in each book. This study recommends that book compilers can increase the frequency of the presence of Pancasila student profile values in books, both in terms of content, exercises and visuals.

Abstract

Indonesia is the house of multicultural ethnic groups with more than 700 individual vernacular languages. This diversity puts Indonesia into both strategic and a vulnerable condition. It is strategic because the culture-rich Indonesia can commodify the diversity for the benefits of the people, however, it is also vulnerable as it can pose serious threats to the existence of the nation. For several decades, Indonesia has given attention to the language policy. Yet, the implementation still needs appropriate modification for the improvement. Objective of the paper: This paper is written on the purpose of giving a new form of language policy to be implemented in Indonesia. Theoretical Framework: A scheme of language policy is proposed for educational setting in Indonesia. Justification: Some arguments are also provided to provide a strong justification for the necessity of implementation of the policy. Conclusion: 1. It is imperative to have a language policy that can promote unity and prevent any potential separatism, provide a sense of belonging to the nations and ethnic culture in terms of nationalism, and open access to knowledge enhancement and the global world. 2. It is also important to have qualified and committing teachers to the implementation of language policy. If both points are present, the benefits of language policy can obviously be obtained.
