Abstract

The utilisation of technology in assessing speaking tests is not a novel concept. Conducting an analysis of the washback effect should be done following the implementation of the assessment. This research study aimed at finding the washback effects of the use of the Google Meet automatic caption feature in assessing students’ pronunciation skill. A mixed-method was employed with the embedded case study as the research design. The instrument was a survey questionnaire designed with a four-point Likert scale. It was distributed to 63 students in English subject from the first semester of Management study program in Universitas Tidar, Magelang which were selected using the purposive sampling. A descriptive statistics analysis was used to analyze the results of the questionnaire. To strengthen the data, a semi-structured interview was conducted to gain more accurate descriptive data. It was found that there are three pedagogical dimensions of washback effects: students’ attitudes, motivation, and pronunciation awareness. Based on these results, further research on the feature’s accurateness in captioning is highly suggested.

Abstract

Old romantic songs of the 1980s linger; especially for people, at the moment, in their 60s or so. Such songs are rich in moral teaching, applicable in any religion on earth. The current study which examined Benjamin S’ and Ida Royani’s the same song lyrics Tragedi Cinta but of different versions aimed to construe the meanings of both songs viewed from their textual-metaphoric representations. The two song lyrics were analyzed employing a software application UAMCT 6.8, adopting Hallidayan SFL on thematic progression, leading to their modes of the discourse. Also dealt with herein is the use of both grammatical and lexical metaphors to examine how meanings are realized. The findings show that ‘female’ is marginalized in three ways, namely (1) the use of active voice without any attempt to hide the identity for doing sincere things as opposed to ‘male’ put in passive voice to hide the identity for doing bad things, (2) the use of marked themes indicate high literary values employed in both song lyrics, (3) the use of both lexical and grammatical metaphoric styles implies excellently-written song lyrics, and (4) moral teaching of both song lyrics is also highlighted to give evidence of ‘female’ marginalization and it is, thereby recommended to avoid romantic juvenile delinquency, especially of the millennial generation termed as ‘digital natives’ who can get access to abundant information without limit of time and space; no matter how hard the social, religious and familial authorities try to ban the negative impacts of the world’s largest information technology industry.

Abstract

This article investigates the influence of imaginative re-creation techniques on students' motivation and engagement within the context of literature teaching. Traditional pedagogical methods often struggle to maintain high student involvement in literature classes. This single-case research employed a mixed-methods approach combining observation and questionnaire data to assess students' motivation and engagement. A total of forty-five participants were involved in the study. Quantitative analysis of the questionnaires revealed an average level of motivation and engagement. However, a qualitative analysis of observations demonstrated that students exhibit a heightened sense of enthusiasm and engagement during class sessions that incorporate imaginative re-creation techniques. The findings suggest that while questionnaire responses might not fully capture the extent of students' enthusiasm, the classroom atmosphere is positively affected by the implementation of imaginative re-creation techniques. This implies that students' active participation and emotional connection with the literature are better reflected in their in-class behaviors than in self-reported questionnaire responses. In conclusion, this article highlights the complex relationship between students' self-reported motivation and engagement and their observable behavior during literature classes incorporating imaginative re-creation techniques. It underscores the need for a comprehensive assessment considering quantitative and qualitative data to understand students' educational experiences better. By integrating imaginative re-creation techniques into literature teaching, educators can foster a dynamic and engaging learning environment that goes beyond average questionnaire results and cultivates a genuine passion for literary exploration among students.

Abstract

Translating literary works such as novels, poetry, short stories, and dramas is widely conducted in Indonesia to introduce literature to the Indonesian people. In translating literary works, the transfer of messages from the source language must be appropriate and flexible in the target language because literary works have their aesthetic function, so translators need to have a broad knowledge of the qualified sociocultural background. Translators do not only translate meaning but also translate the values of literary works such as moral value and cultural value. The role of translators is to find out the equivalence in the target language and use their creativity to solve the non-equivalence in the target text. Equivalence is the main concept to achieve translation quality. This study aims to find the type of translation shift that occurred in the translated version of the children’s book entitled ‘The House at Pooh Corner’ based on Catford theory and to analyse the equivalence of translation according to Popovic. This research is qualitative research which applies content analysis. The data was collected through documentation. It is found that there are level shifts and category shifts in the translated version of The House at Pooh Corner. In addition, the types of equivalence found in this research are paradigmatic equivalence, stylistic equivalence, and textual equivalence. This research is expected to be used as the material for students to understand more about shifts and equivalence in literary translation

Abstract

Regulation of the Minister of National Education number 16 of 2007 stated that Teachers at the Elementary school level (SD/MI), or other equivalent forms, must have a minimum educational academic qualification of diploma four (D-IV) or bachelor (S1) in the field of Primary Education (D-IV/S1 PGSD/PGMI) or psychology obtained from an accredited study program. Thus, there are many schools that have English teachers from non-English educational backgrounds (NEB) rather than English teachers from English educational backgrounds (EEB). This condition will affect the quality of English teaching in Elementary schools. In order to evaluate further the suitability of government regulation regarding teachers’ criteria in teaching Elementary students, this study was to compare the pedagogical competence of English and non-English educational background teachers in teaching English at the elementary school level. The design of the study is qualitative research with a case study approach. The researcher took four English teachers consisting of two English teachers with EEB and two English teachers with NEB. This study used interviews, observation, and questionnaires to collect the data. This study used 10 indicators from the Ministry of Education, 2007. The results showed that from the 10 aspects, it can be highlighted that English teachers from EEB and English teachers from NEB have similarities and differences in implementing the indicators of pedagogical competence established by the Ministry of Education, 2007. It showed that the English teachers from EEB are more dominant in implementing indicators 1,2,8,9,10. Furthermore, the English teachers from NEB are more dominant in indicators 6 and 7. Thus, they have similarities in the rest of the indicators (3,4,5).

Abstract

Critical Discourse Analysis is a form of analysis that aims to reveal ideology, power, political attitudes, and gender. In this study, Critical Discourse Analysis is used to reveal the ideology and power contained in the language used by the author in Nyadran's book. Every discourse that discusses a topic of ideology and power always contains prejudice. This is what makes language expressions contain symbolic meanings. The critical discourse analysis that has been carried out in Nyadran-Belajar Toleransi pada Tradisi by Fajriyatun Nurhidayati can be concluded that to express ideology in a literary text, language cannot be placed in a closed manner. Nonetheless, the context within a literary text serves as a crucial factor in shaping discourse ideology. Furthermore, literary works are inherently intertwined with the author's creative circumstances, thereby rendering the interpretation of textual meaning inseparable from the employed language. Within this examination, it's evident that ideology in literary compositions and language itself defies rigid categorization, underscoring the significance of the contextual backdrop as a fundamental influencer on the ideology woven into the discourse.
