Abstract

This paper explores the masculinity discourses appearing in an internet discussion forum in a graduate class. The discussion forum itself is a part of a course related to contemporary issues, media, and identity in literature for children and young adults. In the forum the students are required to respond to the weekly readings, especially the ones related to children and young adult literature. This study is aimed at understanding how masculinity discourses are presented by the members of the forum. There are two main thematic discourses found in the discussion forum. The first one is the dominant discourses of masculinity in which boys should be boys by showing their macho sides. The second one is the subordinate discourse of masculinity—the feminine sides of men. Beyond the texts and academic discussions, these findings show that the hegemonic masculinity persists and unconsciously has influenced many members of the forum. Keywords: masculinity, children literature, readers’ response, discussion forum

Abstract

This study explores the representations of the cultural contents in English textbooks used in Indonesian contexts. The textbooks as the sources of data are two textbooks for grade 12 that represent local and global textbook. The first one was Bahasa Inggris, a textbook published and endorsed by Indonesian government and the other one was Think, a global textbook published by Cambridge. This study aims at finding out how different cultural sources are represented in the two textbooks. The findings show that the two textbooks have different emphasis regarding the culture they present in texts and their accompanying visual illustrations. Bahasa Inggris puts the emphasis on global and local cultural sources. Other cultures that are not representative to the two main sources are very limited. On the other hand, Think provides a wide array of representations for global and other cultures but not local Indonesian culture. We end our discussion with a conceptual implication on cultural sources in English language teaching (ELT) materials.

Abstract

In this post-method era, perspectives and stances gain momentum as postmodernist’ educators highlight teachers’ agency in transforming the students and the society. In this framework, this paper discusses two approaches in teaching English as a second or foreign language (TESL/TEFL). The first perspective is critical pedagogy and the second is pragmatic pedagogy. By discussing the two important perspectives, this paper aims at understanding the path for better practices, both in research and teaching in TESL/TEFL. More importantly, it also discusses its relevance to teaching English in Indonesian.

Abstract

Teachers’ beliefs and their roles in the classroom may change over time as they are more informed about the profession from their own experiences, from their colleagues, and from their continuing education. In this study we investigated teachers’ beliefs and roles at 10 Christian schools in East Java, Indonesia to see how their beliefs influence their professional identity development. The data were collected from 107 teachers who participated in semi-structured interviews and who wrote reflective essays as a part of their career development program. The data were analyzed in the framework of narrative inquiry to see the emergent themes. The findings suggest that the most salient beliefs among the participating teachers are the beliefs which are based on their Christian affiliation. These salient beliefs and Christian identity of the teachers could enhance their positive image as teachers and could motivate them to be better teachers. However, the salient religious identity may also be able to be hindrance for teacher agency to solve problems in their practices as the beliefs can be the shielding for their reluctance to change.

Abstract

This paper examines thesis conclusions written by the students of an English education program at a private university in East Java Indonesia. The central question guiding this study is “How do the authors of the theses organize their conclusions?” This study is a genre analysis. The data sources were 24 undergraduate thesis conclusions written from 2017 to 2019, consisting of 12 quantitative theses and 12 qualitative ones. The analysis was conducted in the framework of genre analysis by identifying the major moves and steps. Bunton’s (2005) framework for the generic structure of conclusions was used to understand the data. The results indicate that the majority of the conclusions follow the generic structure with its moves and steps as suggested by Bunton. However, different preferences in organizing the thesis conclusions were apparent between the two groups of thesis conclusions. These findings reflect the mastery of the particular academic genre by the students as well as their preferences in organizing moves and steps. Pedagogical implications of the findings are discussed in teaching English as a foreign language (TEFL).

Abstract

This study explores the use of Indonesian (L1) in an English class at an undergraduate program in a university in East Java, Indonesia. The English class was called Intensive Course (IC). In the class the students were expected to learn general English so that they could have the required competence to become English teachers. The students who passed the course in 2018-2019 (50 students) were asked to complete a questionnaire. Follow up interviews were conducted to four selected students representing positive and negative perceptions on the use of Indonesian. The findings of this study shows that L1 could be a potential resource to learn English but when the L1 was overused in the classroom, the learning opportunities and exposure to the target language diminished, limiting their learning opportunities and bringing about negative perceptions of the students. Implications from the findings are discussed in relation to translanguaging as pedagogy.

Abstract

The aim of the study is to reveal the viewpoints of adolescents as media audiences, how they interpret their lives in the midst of Indonesia's diversity. The method used is Reception Analysis using encoding and decoding models from Stuart Hall. The subjects of the study were 9 Sampit City teenagers aged 15-18 years with a diversity of sex, religion, and ethnicity. While the concept used is the study of Indonesian-ness, imagined communities, nation and state and identity. The results showed that adolescents in Sampit City were traumatized by stories of riots based on ethnic sentiment as told by parents, based on YouTube's content and also through the context of the 2017 local election reporting. Ethnic sentiments still exist because the content on YouTube allows them to reconnect with the 2001 conflict. So the dominant meaning of hegemonic is that they agree that Indonesia's diverse ethnic situation can lead to conflict and is easily used by irresponsible groups. The next meaning on the negotiating side is that prejudice and stereotyping occur in Sampit, respectively. To eliminate the trauma of ethnic conflict, they hope that more activities will involve cultural gatherings.
