Abstract

Students’ awareness of academic writing is a crucial aspect as they are going to explore it for their study purposes. Their awareness of research articles would benefit them in finding supports for their academic writing. This paper explains the context in which the students have to familiarize themselves with research articles for supporting their study. It also discusses the literature review and how to address the problem the students face for raising their awareness of research articles. There are two steps proposed in this paper for raising students’ awareness of research article adapted from Flowerdew’s idea; they are discovering prototypical features of research articles and acknowledging modeling.

SEKOLAH BERTARAF INTERNASIONAL(INTERNATIONAL QUALITY SCHOOL)EMPOWERING OR ‘DISEMPOWERING’? A POSTCOLONIALISM APPROACH

Abstract

Designed as a response to the effects of globalization on education in Indonesia, Sekolah Bertaraf Internasional (SBI-International Quality School) is aimed at empowering students in tight global competition. It has been enthusiastically welcomed, particularly by parents, despite criticism on the use of English as the teaching-learning medium of particular subjects. As globalization is commonly considered another form of colonialization, it should carry similar characteristics to colonialism which Third World countries like Indonesia are familiar with. Taking the nation’s experience as a colonized country into account, this paper will utilize postcolonialism in examining SBI to find out if it can really empower learners in global competition.
This analysis reveals that SBI is a product of globalization as well as a reflection of neocolonialism.

THE EFFECT OF PICTURE DRAWING AND PICTURE COMPARISONS IN THE NEGOTIATION PROCESS OF NNS-NNS INTERACTIONS

Abstract

Many undergraduate students find it difficult to achieve an adequate level of English proficiency. One factor that may contribute to this lack of proficiency is because there are insufficient interactions to develop the students' language abilities. Another factor is that the classroom environment does not support the interaction process between teacher and students, since students rarely have an initiative to interact with their teachers. Even if the students have an initiative to interact with their teachers, there is
still limited time and the class size is usually big, so that it makes it difficult for the teacher to have intensive interactions with the students. This qualitative study attempts to find the benefits of using picture comparisons and picture drawings as communicative tasks in the negotiation of meaning for non-native speaker (NNS)-NNS interactions.
Two indigenous female Indonesian speakers studying at Satya Wacana Christian University participated in this study. The results of this study show that the negotiation of meaning using communicative tasks can motivate the students to be actively involved in interactions. However, negotiation of meaning does not directly lead to language development, since some of the responses are only acknowledgements and repetition.

Keywords: interactions, communicative tasks, negotiation of meaning

FATHOMING CULTURAL ASPECTS IN WRITING ABOUT ENGLISH LANGUAGE MOVIES FOR ESL LEARNERS

email: dvthren@yahoo.com

Abstract

Movie interpretation teachers need to understand and explain cultural differences when assigning writing tasks for ESL students. Students need to be given the proper cultural orientation and representation for a writing assignment. Since language is interrelated with culture, the cultural values and norms are expressed through the language. Therefore, it is imperative that movie interpretation teachers recognize and convey the cultural elements found within a film. Teachers need to be aware of what the cultural aspects and the cultural ideas are that need to be socialized to the students to enable them to fully grasp and immerse themselves within the context of the culture. This paper will reveal hindrances students may face in understanding
cultural aspects of a movie and provide teachers with guidelines as to how to overcome these obstacles. Examples of
various movie genres will be discussed to give teachers insights into how to act as cultural brokers and facilitators to tackle understanding of the cultural facets found within the films, and how to relay this knowledge to the second language learners.

Keywords: 
cultural aspects, cultural brokers, cultural values and norms, interrelation of language and culture

CHRISTIAN DISCOURSING ACROSS LLINGS OF THE SAME STORY: A CASE IN PRE-SERVICE TEACHER’S NARRATIVES

Joseph Ernest Mambu

email:jes_sala3@yahoo.com

Abstract

This study explores the linguistic ways an EFL pre-service teacher frames English language teaching (ELT) within the context of his religious (Christian) belief. Such ways are encapsulated by the notion of Christian discoursing. Central  to  this  notion  is  how  Christian  texts  are  interwoven with non-religious texts such as ELT practices. The importance of the discoursing transpires when the Christian texts are  believed  to  have  some  transformative  impacts  on  a teacher’s ELT practices. From the three collected tellings of the teacher’s same teaching experience over a period of less than three weeks, it becomes apparent that his Christian  discoursing  is  similar  across  tellings  in  terms  of  the underlying  memory  (i.e.,  “reliance  upon  God”)  and  yet slightly or very different from one telling to another with regard  to  wording  and  phrasing  of  routine  formulae,  including collocations, and allusions.

Keywords:Christian discoursing, telling(s), teaching, routine formulae, collocations, allusions
