Abstract

This study deals with the significance of parental involvement in students’ English learning. It centres its focus primarily on the students and tries to explore their take on their parents’ participation regarding L2 learning and also wishes to uncover some effective methods that might be used by parents to facilitate children’s English language learning. The findings indicate that students viewed the support from their family while learning English as something nonexpendable. Not only did parents’ active involvement leave a mark on students’ academic achievement, but also it seemed to affect the students’ psychology positively. Students with a higher degree of parental involvement, in the study, displayed greater self-confidence while interacting in the target language and also were appreciative of the support that they received from home. Contrarily, their counterparts, who did not have any noteworthy assistance from their parents, regretted not having it and saw it as an obvious drawback in their L2 learning. The study also shows that parents simply reading storybooks, watching English movies, or playing word games with their children aids English learning. Hence, recommendations were made to introduce parental involvement more extensively and as an academic and instructional mechanism for more productive L2 learning.

Abstract

Wordplays are fun and pleasurable, yet challenging for translators. The researcher translated the Paperboy novel by Vince Vawter and found many wordplays in it. In this research, the researcher aims to find the various wordplays contained in the novel, determine at what level of language the wordplays are, classify the wordplay into the appropriate taxonomy, and find out the most suitable translation strategy for each wordplay. The methods used are introspective and retrospective. The results of this research show that there are 26 data of wordplays that cover 3 lexical plays, 19 sound plays, and 4 visual plays. In terms of taxonomy, those data cover 7 homonyms, 7 paronyms, 5 malapropisms, 6 rhymes, and 1 eggcorn. The translation strategies used are 19 wordplay to wordplay, 3 wordplay ST to wordplay TT, 1 wordplay to non-wordplay, 1 non-wordplay to wordplay, and 2 editorial techniques. Based on the most used translation strategies, i.e. wordplay to wordplay, it can be seen that even though wordplays are challenging, they are not totally impossible to translate.

Abstract

This study explores the representation of gender and social class stereotypes in The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. The data were collected by analyzing key scenes and dialogues in the movie, focusing on instances that reflect stereotypes. The analysis employed theories of gender and social class stereotypes to examine how these stereotypes are represented and portrayed within the main characters, Katniss Everdeen, President Snow, and Plutarch. The findings reveal that gender stereotypes are more dominant than social class stereotypes in the film. The main female character subverts traditional gender roles, displaying strength and independence in contrast to the conventional portrayal of women as weak and reliant on men. Additionally, social class stereotypes are depicted through discrimination and prejudice against lower-class characters. This research aims to enhance readers’ critical understanding of gender and social class representations, promote gender equality, and encourage respect for social diversity.

Abstract

Peer evaluation can enhance learning outcomes, interpersonal skills, and student engagement in higher education. However, while factors like ability levels and gender influence peer evaluation dynamics, the role of social presence—projecting individual identities and connecting with peers—remains underexplored. Additionally, there is limited research on how culture affects peer evaluation in non-Western contexts, such as Indonesia. This study examines the intersection of social presence and peer evaluation in Indonesian higher education, focusing on students' perceptions, benefits, and challenges. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the study involved surveys and interviews with 69 students in an English for Specific Purposes course at a private Indonesian university. After completing online peer evaluations, participants completed an online survey with closed- and open-ended questions. Five students were also interviewed for additional insights. The findings highlight that peer evaluation provided benefits such as changed perspectives, closer relationships, and opportunities for self-reflection. However, challenges, including reluctance to provide honest feedback, were also identified. From a sociocultural perspective, these challenges may relate to Indonesia’s collectivist culture. Recommendations for improving peer evaluation include conducting evaluations in class, justifying scores, and providing task evidence. This study emphasizes the potential of peer evaluation to enhance social presence and educational outcomes when properly guided and supported while also underscoring the importance of considering cultural context in its implementation.

Abstract

This study investigates the language registers employed by women’s clothing sellers during TikTok Live sessions, emphasizing the specific words and phrases to promote communication in a fast-paced sales environment. Through qualitative investigation of live-stream interactions, the study finds that nouns (41.86%) are predominantly used to provide detailed product descriptions, followed by verbs, adjectives, abbreviations, and compound words. Nouns convey information about stock availability, sizes, and materials.  The study differentiates between lexical and contextual meanings, with lexical meanings (60.47%) taking precedence, providing precise definitions that improve intelligibility for potential purchasers. Lexical meanings enhance clarity and understanding for potential buyers, while contextual meanings, though less frequent, are vital for maintaining dynamic interaction with the audience. These findings highlight the sellers' strategic use of clear product descriptions and conversational language to boost audience engagement and drive sales. This study suggests that the language strategies used on TikTok Live Sessions are adaptable, effectively balancing product clarity with audience interaction to optimize the sales process.
