Abstract

This article presents the findings of sentence characters in article introductions written by Indonesian authors in Applied Linguistics published in national accredited and international reputable journals. This study aimed to identify sentence characters in article introductions used by Indonesian authors in Applied Linguistics published in national accredited journals and reputable international journals. The method employed in this study was a mixed-method to describe and compare the data. This study’s total number of articles was forty from eight different journals. The results indicated that the average sentence lengths in terms of words number per sentence in the international reputable journals articles were 22.38 words, and those in national accredited journals articles were 21.84 words. Also, the results revealed that the most commonly used sentence pattern in both groups of articles was complex sentences, with 414 sentences in national journals and 378 in international journals. It is followed by simple, compound-complex, and compound sentences. Therefore, it can be concluded that the Indonesian authors from both groups prefer to use long words and use complex sentences more often than the other sentence patterns. Hence, there is no important difference in sentence characters between national accredited and international reputable journals.

Abstract

ABSTRACTThis study is aimed at investigating the rhetorical structure of Introduction chapters of English master theses written by Indonesian postgraduate students and identifying the frequency of communicative moves and their constituent steps as well as finding how the students justify their research projects reported in their Introduction chapters. The research design was mixed method research combining quantitative and qualitative method. Twenty Introduction chapters of English master theses were taken from two different fields; English language education and applied linguistics, and they were analyzed using checklists. The results: (1) three moves and fifteen steps are found in the introduction chapters of master theses and three newly identified steps other than those specified in Bunton’s are also found in the corpus of this study and (2) three moves are considered obligatory moves, seven steps are classified as obligatory, four Steps are conventional and seven Steps are optional. Further, the majority of Indonesian postgraduate students tend to rhetorically justify their research project based on the knowledge gap found in the literature. This study concludes that the move and step model suggested by Bunton (2002) and modified from Swales’ CARS is effective enough to capture the possible rhetorical structure of introduction chapter of master thesis written by Indonesian postgraduate students. ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk menemukan pola retorika bab pendahuluan dalam thesis bahasa Inggris diantaranya mengidentifikasi bagian pendahuluan yang memiliki moves (tahapan), steps (langkah), dan menjustifikasi pentingnya penelitian dilakukan. Desain penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode campuran (mixed method) yang menggabungkan kuantitatif dan kualitatif, dan instrumen utama yang digunakan dalam menganalisis data adalah instrumen ceklist. Data penelitian ini diambil dari dua bidang thesis yang berbeda; pengajaran bahasa Inggris dan fitur linguistik. Hasil dari penelitian ini: (1) tiga Moves (tahapan) dan limabelas Steps (langkah) ditemukan dalam bab Pendahuluan thesis pada penelitian ini. Selain itu, ditemukan juga tiga Steps (langkah) baru yang tidak ditemukan dalam pola Bunton (2002); (2) tiga Moves (tahapan) dikategorikan harus/wajib ada, tujuh Steps (langkah) diiklasifikasikan harus ada, empat Steps (langkah) boleh ada, dan tujuh Steps (langkah) boleh tidak ada. Selanjutnya, mayoritas mahasiswa pascasarjana Indonesia cenderung secara retoris menjustifikasi proyek penelitian mereka berdasarkan pada celah (gap) yang terdapat dalam penelitian-penelitian terkait terdahulu. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa pola tahapan (Move) dan langkah (Step) yang dikemukakan oleh Bunton (2002) dan dimodifikasi dari pola retorika Swales yakni Creating a Research Space (CARS) cukup efektif digunakan dalam menggambarkan struktur retorika bab pendahuluan pada thesis  yang ditulis oleh mahasiswa pascasarjana Indonesia.How to Cite: Pujiyanti, I.

Abstract

Religious values are needed in textbooks and learning process, such as in English Language Teaching (henceforth ELT) for both the student and teachers to support character education as suggested by the government of Indonesia. Indonesian people have more than one believes or religion and the most dominant one is Islam. This is important because Islamic characters can be an alternative media for students and teachers in the teaching and learning processes. There were three grades of English textbooks chosen in this investigation. The results showed that there are three aspects of religious values: ritual, social and material and the majority found in the textbooks was material aspect. In addition, there are two ways how Islamic characters are represented in the textbooks: visual and non-visual. The second result showed that the dominant value aspect is visual. This implies that English textbooks used by senior high school do not focus on ritual, social and non-visual aspects in developing English textbooks.

Abstract

This article analyzes the flouting types of maxim in classroom interaction videos on YouTube. The aims of this study are to find out the flouting types of maxim and also the gender representation of it. Descriptive qualitative method was used. The corpus of the study were 10 classroom interaction videos that were taken from YouTube. Grice’s theory was used to find and analyze the flouting types of maxim found in the video, those are; maxim of quality, quantity, relevance, and manner. The result showed that those four types of flouting maxim were found in the classroom interaction videos on YouTube. The highest flouting maxims found were maxim of quantity, relevance and manner and the least one is maxim of quality. This is probably because the speaker wants to build trust and cheer the hearer. The findings of the second research question shows that male was the most dominant gender flouting the maxims. Based on the results and limitation of the study, it is recommended for further research to take the data directly to schools to compare videos taken from YouTube and those taken directly from schools.
