Abstract

An abstract plays an important role in an article because it becomes the face of the whole paper.  Besides, voluntarily or involuntarily when writing an abstract, a writer also applies metadiscourse markers to communicate effectively by organizing, interacting, and showing the stance.  Thus, the application of metadiscourse in an abstract becomes an interesting object to examine.  This study is aimed at examining interactive and interactional metadiscourse suggested by Hyland (2005) in 50 abstracts written by Indonesian scholars and 50 abstracts written by NES scholars, 100-250 word range, taken from TEFLIN journal and ELT journal.  The results show that NES scholars apply more metadiscourse markers than Indonesian scholars (83.14 versus 76.37). NES, in details, apply more code glosses, and transition markers, while Indonesian scholars apply more frame markers and evidentials, and the similar result is found in endophoric markers (8.9 for both groups of scholars). But, from overall cases and variants, metadiscourse markers by Indonesian scholars are more varied than those of NES scholars (618 versus 559 cases, 66 versus 48 variants). Differences are mostly influenced by cultural interferences (Friedlander, 1987; Hyland, 2005; Abdi, 2009; Sanjaya et al., 2015; Mu et al., 2015). Apart from what causes the differences, the result of T-test shows that the difference in metadiscourse markers applied by both scholars is not significant. It means that metadiscourse markers applied by both groups of scholars are similar.

Abstract

In writing abstracts, authors usually include metadiscourses such as hedges and boosters. This study aims to compare the use of hedges and boosters in writing undergraduate thesis abstract as a mean of communicative strategy to increase or decrease the strength of the statement. This research data was taken from 25 undergraduate thesis abstract of English Language Education Study Program and 25 from Mathematic Study Program at Qomaruddin University Gresik with 100-250 word range and analyzed based on Hyland's taxonomy (2005).The results showed that there were 22 variants of hedges words with a total use of 53 words and 17 variants of boosters words with a total use of 130 words. In the undergraduate thesis abstract, the students of the English Language Education Study Program dominantly use hedges words, such as in the adverb and verb classes. However, for the use of hedges words in undergraduate thesis abstracts, Mathematic Study Program students are more dominant than English Language Education Study Program students even though the word variants used are still dominated by English Language Education Study Program students, such as in the verb class. In addition, students using hedges have greater value than boosters in writing undergraduate thesis abstracts as a way to reduce the risk of opposition, to show courtesy and to obscure authorship and strengthen opinions. Boosters are also used to demonstrate the originality of research. Hedging by the students shows that there is a lack of knowledge of English rhetoric. Thus, the use of hedges and boosters can also help to improve students’ academic writing skills.

Abstract

Bahasa Inggris di Indonesia memang bukan bahasa pertama atau bahasa kedua. Namun, faktanya, bahasa Inggris menjadi mata pelajaran wajib pada Ujian Nasional. Begitu juga dengan tumbuhnya sekolah-sekolah berstandar internasional yang mengharuskan siswa untuk memiliki kemampuan berbahasa Inggris, adaptasi kurikulum berbasis kemampuan berbahasa Inggris, hingga menjadikan keahlian berbahasa Inggris menjadi syarat kelulusan pada berbagai perguruan tinggi. Selain itu, di berbagai lembaga non-formal, seperti pondok pensantren, juga memfasilitasi santri untuk meningkatkan kemampuan berbahasa Inggris melalui program-program tertentu, misalnya Bilingualisme, Englsih Area, English Corner, English Intensive Program, dan lain sebagainya. Dengan program tersebut, bahasa Inggris dijadikan sebagai bahasa komunikasi sehari-hari dengan seluruh penghuni pondok, baik itu untuk komunikasi antarsantri atau dengan pengurus pondok. Seiring dengan maraknya program bilingual di pondok pesantren, misalnya di Pondok Pesantren Darussalam yang terletak di Gontor, Ponorogo atau Pondok Pesantren Mambaus Sholihin di Desa Suci, Gresik, Pondok Pesantren Al-Karimi juga mempunya tujuan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan berbahasa Inggris santrinya. Untuk mengawali program tersebut maka diperlukan bimbingan bahasa Inggris dasar bagi santri dan pengurus serta pengadaan beberapa media pembelajaran sebagai penunjang belajar.

As they present their academic presentation, composing and organizing their ideas are necessary to make their audience understand what they present. Code glosses as a part of metadiscourse function ‘to signal the restatement of ideational information’ (Hyland, 2005). Nineteen presenters delivered their academic presentation. Their presentations were then transcribed to analyze code glosses applied by the presenters when delivering their academic presentation. These markers are applied to elaborate, modify, define, exemplify or rephrase an intended idea or a concept to readers. The results show that there are 214 markers found indicating that students apply the markers to better modify or elaborate their ideas during their presentation.

Abstract

Writing is one of the essential things that all students must do. In writing, the delivery of ideas needs to be arranged so that the writing is easy to understand and practical. One type of writing is when students write a research article for their final project or thesis. Abstract writing is one of the crucial sections of a final project or thesis because the abstract contains an outline of the research they did. In writing abstracts, metadiscourse markers were possible because they aimed to organize a sequence of ideas, attract readers' attention, and indicate how important the information was presented. This study investigated one hundred and twenty abstract theses from six study programs at Universitas Qomaruddin. They are English Department (PBI), Mathematic Department (PMT), Industrial Engineering (TI), Electrical Engineering (TE), Mechanical Engineering (MS), and Informatics Engineering (IF). Hyland (2005) formulated the interactional metadiscourse investigated as the primary reference. The results showed that all six study programs applied interactional metadiscourse markers when writing their abstracts. Moredespite different styles and preferences in applying markers. In terms of usage of overall metadiscourse, PBI applied the most markers, while MS applied the least. In terms of variants of metadiscourse, PBI also applied the most, and MS applied the least varied markers. The reasons behind more or less usage of interactional markers were influenced by how familiar they were with using English, as it also revealed their writing style. PBI is one example that their exposure to English pretty helps them vary the way they arrange their ideas in their abstracts. However, other surprising groups were PMT  and IF groups, which frequently showed the uses of metadiscourse markers. It also strengthened that English was not only dominated by English department students. It was more on how this language was known to many students at Universitas Qomaruddin. It is hoped that English as one of the international languages is no longer a big problem for students, especially in the case of abstract writing.
