Abstract

Students leave their countries to pursue tertiary education abroad under different motives. To understand this case, this study aimed to identify the prospective students’ perceptions on overseas academic settings. A total of 100 Acehnese students applying for overseas scholarship were surveyed. The obtained data were then processed using SPSS 24.0 for descriptive quantitative elaboration. The findings indicated that both females and males shared relatively similar views on the quality of international tertiary education. Both positively consider overseas universities to have better learning quality, better learning environment and better research experience. It is suggested that prospective students equip themselves with good English language competence to increase their chance to study abroad.

Abstract

These past years have seen the growing popularity of the Computer-Based Tests (CBTs) in various disciplines, for various purposes, although the Paper-and Pencil Based Tests (P&Ps) are still in use. However, many question on whether the use of CBTs outperform the effectiveness of the P&Ps or if the CBTs can become a valid measuring tool compared to the PBTs. This paper tries to present the comparison on both the CBTs and the P&Ps and their respective examinee perspectives in order to figure out if doubts should arise to the emergence of the CBTs over the classic P&Ps. Findings showed that the CBTs are advantageous in that they are both efficient (reducing testing time) and effective (maintaining the test reliability) over the P&P versions. Nevertheless, the CBTs still need to have their variables well-designed (e.g., study design, computer algorithm) in order for the scores to be comparable to those in the P&P tests since the score equivalence is one of the validity evidences needed in a CBT.

Abstract

Given the intensified number of online learning activities and having inadequate knowledge to identify the details of how it was organized within increased students’ language learning ability; this study focused on identifying the students’ perceptions of learning in two different situations. This study investigated how students perceived working in a new learning mode (online learning activity) compared to the traditional or face-to-face learning mode (offline learning activity) in regards to the learning frameworks, including the depth and comprehensiveness of learning, appropriate length for learning, comfortability of learning, and flexibility of learning. Ten students were selected to be the participants of the current study; all of whom were sixth and eighth semester students at the Department of English Language Education of Universitas Islam Negeri Ar-Raniry Banda Aceh. They were served by several questions related to their experiences working on two different learning modes. The findings revealed that working in offline learning mode was still the common preference among the students and only a few of them preferred online learning. Even more interesting was the finding of one or two students who perceived no differences between participating in offline and online class learning activities. In addition, the findings also indicated that interaction between the course instructors and students still becomes a prominent element on the students’ satisfaction and comfort of learning. The students also suggested that the keys to their satisfactory learning experiences are access to learning materials and to their class instructors. To conclude, this study also provides new insights on what matters the most to the students’ learning experiences with respect to the current online learning trend.

Abstract

This paper describes the types of irony used by Charles Dickens in his notable early work, Oliver Twist, as well as the reasons the irony was chosen. As a figurative language, irony is utilized to express one’s complex feelings without truly saying them. In Oliver Twist, Dickens brought the readers some real social issues wrapped in dark, deep written expressions of irony uttered by the characters of his novel. Undoubtedly, the novel had left an impact to the British society at the time. The irony Dickens displayed here includes verbal, situational, and dramatic irony. His choice of irony made sense as he intended to criticize the English Poor Laws and to touch the public sentiment. He wanted to let the readers go beyond what was literally written and once they discovered what the truth was, they would eventually understand Dickens’ purposes.

Abstract

Penelitian ini membahas strategi penerjemahan dan dampak strategi terhadap teks terjemahan yang dilakukan oleh sejumlah pelamar gelar Master di Sekolah Pascasarjana UIN Ar-Raniry Banda Aceh. Data yang dikumpulkan adalah sepuluh produk terjemahan, dari bahasa Inggris sampai bahasa Indonesia, dari pelamar. Teks bahasa Inggris yang diterjemahkan terdiri dari 390 kata. Mereka diizinkan menggunakan kamus tradisional atau kamus offline / elektronik saat menerjemahkan teks. Penelitian menggunakan teori strategi penerjemahan yang diusulkan oleh Jääskeläinen (1993), strategi global dan lokal, dan oleh Vinay & Dalbernet (1958 & 2000), metode terjemahan (terjemahan harfiah dan oblique) dan prosedur terjemahan (peminjaman, penerjemah kalque, terjemahan harfiah, modulasi , transposisi, kesetaraan, dan adaptasi). Temuan menunjukkan bahwa calon mahasiswa cenderung menggunakan strategi lokal dan metode literal dalam terjemahannya. Hal ini mempengaruhi kualitas terjemahan, membuatnya kurang alami dalam bahasa target. Selain itu, ada kesalahan terjemahan karena pilihan kata yang salah / salah, menyebabkan pesan dalam teks sumber gagal disampaikan. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan masukan yang berharga untuk studi dan kursus terjemahan di masa depan.
