Abstract

This paper focuses on the user perception of their experience in using the auto-translate feature on social media. A mixed method is employed in this study to gain quantitative and qualitative results and provide a more in-depth understanding of the analysis, with an online questionnaire as the research instrument. In order to reach a broader audience, snowball sampling is used since there are no specific criteria for the subject target. The majority of the respondents are women with bachelor's degrees aged 17-28. There are three aspects of assessment on the questionnaire following Nababan’s theory: accuracy, acceptability, and readability. The findings showed that the result of the auto-translate feature on social media has good accuracy, moderate readability, and is very acceptable. Meanwhile, the shortcomings of this feature are lack of context understanding, mistranslation due to wrong diction, and grammar updates.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to investigate and describe the intrinsic and extrinsic motivations of tertiary-level EFL students in Indonesia toward reading English. The quantitative method was applied by asking students majoring in English at Brawijaya University to fill out a questionnaire adapted from Wigfield and Guthrie's Motivation for Reading Questionnaire (MRQ) (1997). The questionnaire was administered to students from 2018 generations to 2020 generations. Besides that, students’ self-assessment reading value used to measure students’ reading proficiency. In addition, this study also examined the correlation between students' reading motivation and their reading ability. The data collected were analyzed using the SPSS program with descriptive statistics to answer research question 1 and Pearson correlation analysis to answer research question 2. The results indicated that students are relative highly extrinsic motivated in reading English. Meanwhile, intrinsic motivation was found to have a significant correlation and extrinsic motivation was found to have a negative correlation with students' reading. Based on these findings, lecturers are expected to increase students' intrinsic motivation to read.
