The sample was 40 students; 20 students in the experimental group and 20 students in the control group. The data was collected by using a test. The instrument consisted of 40 items. The data were analyzed by using T-test formula. The findings indicate that using think-pair-share showed positive effect on the students’ learning achievement. It was proved from the result of the post test for the experimental group (78.5) is higher than the control group (55.25) and the result of t-test (4.42) was higher than the t-table (2.021) and level of significance (0.05) which means that the hypothesis stating that the students’ achievement taught by using think-pair-share was higher than the conventional method in teaching present tense was accepted. The conclusion is the t-observed is higher than t-table (4.42 > 2.021; p = 0.005). It means that students’ learning achievement taught by using think-pair-share is higher than the conventional method. So, English teachers/lecturers are suggested to apply think-pair-share in teaching present tense.

Abstract

This research is an initial exploration into the foundational branches of philosophy (axiology, ontology, and epistemology) and their profound implications for the philosophy of language. Investigating the contemporary study of language, the research examines five dissertations to uncover the interplay of these three philosophical domains. The research addresses three key questions: the domains within the philosophy of language covered by the dissertations, the featured interconnection of axiology, ontology, and epistemology in these dissertations, and the development of these domains to bolster arguments. The objectives include discerning how researchers describe these domains in relation to language philosophy, exploring the possibility of discussing a single domain without engaging the others, and fostering an objective discussion of language philosophy within an academic context. The research's significance lies in contributing to a comprehensive understanding of language, its relationship with users and the world, and how the three philosophical domains sustain language existence. It aims to enrich the study of language philosophy for students, particularly those in English Applied Linguistics programs, by emphasizing the correlations between philosophy and language characteristics, acquisition, planning, and translation. The research employs a qualitative approach, analyzing dissertations from a philosophical perspective. Findings reveal that the interconnection of axiology, ontology, and epistemology is intricate, challenging the initial assumption of discussing them separately. Notably, the dissertations exhibit varied emphasis on the three domains. The study concludes with valuable insights into the philosophy of language, highlighting the pivotal role of language in shaping reality, conveying experiences, and expressing cultural influences. The dynamic nature of language and the reciprocal relationship between language and philosophy underscore the need for an open-minded approach and continual engagement in discussions surrounding language philosophy. The research recommends incorporating philosophy as a mandatory course in university curricula to nurture a holistic understanding of language and its philosophical underpinnings.

Abstract

This research explores the multifaceted concept of translanguaging in the context of teaching English as a foreign language in three universities in North Sumatra. Translanguaging, a term encompassing various aspects of multilingualism, is examined as a pedagogical approach that utilizes multiple languages within a classroom setting. The study investigates translanguaging practices among lecturers and aims to address three key research questions: the types of translanguaging practices, perceptions of lecturers and students, and the motivations behind incorporating translanguaging in teaching and learning activities. The research method is a qualitative method with a case study approach model focusing on the exploration of a "bounded system" on one specific case or on some cases in detail by exploring data in depth. Through a combination of surveys and interviews with lecturers, the study identifies eight motivations for the intentional use of translanguaging practices. These motivations include adjusting to students' proficiency levels, clarification, and emphasis, translanguaging as an academic strategy, providing challenges for student growth, considering diverse student demographics, expressing firmness and solidarity, addressing real lexical needs in communication, and expressing group identity. The findings reveal positive responses to translanguaging from both lecturers and students, highlighting its versatility in meeting educational objectives and fostering effective communication in diverse learning environments. The motivations align with existing literature, emphasizing the adaptability and significance of translanguaging in enriching the teaching and learning experience. The study concludes with several insights into translanguaging practices in North Sumatra's universities and recommends possibilities for future research and practical implementation. The proposed recommendations include professional development for lecturers, curriculum design, student training, and calls for more studies in tranlanguaging. Overall, this research contributes to the understanding of translanguaging motivations and offers practical suggestions for enhancing its integration in higher education institutions.

Abstract

This study aims to identify and examine the challenges students face when composing recount texts, focusing on the experiences of grade XI MIPA 2 students at WR. Supratman 2 School. A qualitative research approach was utilized, collecting data through interviews and written tests to gain a comprehensive understanding of the difficulties encountered by students. The analysis of the data revealed that grammar was the most significant area of struggle for the students. Many students exhibited difficulties with the proper use of tenses, sentence structure, and vocabulary, which impacted their ability to write coherent and accurate recount texts. Based on these findings, the study recommends that teachers place greater emphasis on teaching grammar in a more structured and gradual manner, ensuring that students have ample time to grasp the concepts fully. Teachers should consider adopting a slower pace and using diverse instructional strategies, such as interactive exercises and practical applications, to reinforce grammar rules and facilitate better understanding. Additionally, the study suggests that students engage in daily English practice, including writing, reading, and listening activities, to enhance their language skills over time. Regular practice can help students become more familiar with the language, improve their grammatical accuracy, and increase their confidence in using English both in and out of the classroom. By addressing these challenges through targeted teaching strategies and consistent practice, both teachers and students can work together to improve the overall quality of students' writing and their ability to effectively compose recount texts. The findings of this study highlight the importance of a focused approach to grammar instruction and encourage a more supportive learning environment for students developing their English language skills.

Abstract

The study was a metaphor analysis of the poems of William Shakespeare, which investigated the tendency and occurrence of metaphors, including eight types of metaphors, based on the theory proposed by Goatly, to identify procedural techniques and make a complete analysis. The research method was descriptive qualitative, the purpose of which was to describe metaphors and analyze their appearance. The research material was twelve poems by William Shakespeare. The analysis resulted in twelve poems consisting of 115 lines of metaphors namely; Active metaphor 10 lines (8.7%), passive metaphor 2 lines (1.74%), subjective metaphor 28 lines (24.35%), mimetic metaphor 6 lines (6.22%), phenomenological metaphor 7 lines (6.09%), Precision metaphor 10 lines (8.7%), Symbolism Metaphor 11 lines (8.57%) and Approximate Metaphor 41 lines (35.66%). Based on this description, the most used metaphor in the poems is the approximate metaphor. This means that the writer tends to be approximate when constructing his thoughts, opinions and messages in the poems. Approximate metaphors open up spaces for interpretation and intellectual engagement. They invite readers to see beyond the literal meaning of words and to embrace the creative possibilities of language. By manipulating language and weaving together disparate concepts, writers can evoke emotions, provoke thoughts, and challenge conventional perspectives.
