Abstract

This study investigates the English language needs of Mechanical Engineering students in a university ESP class. Through a questionnaire distributed to 21 students, the findings reveal that 81% recognize the crucial role of English proficiency in their academic and professional pursuits. Specific language skills such as vocabulary and grammar practice are considered important, emphasizing the overall significance of language proficiency. The research underscores the importance of reading tasks, with technical documents, textbooks, and instructions deemed essential. However, a lack of emphasis on oral communication skills is evident, as tasks related to speaking are generally considered non-essential by the majority of students. While specific listening skills in certain contexts are valued, the study also points to a need for curriculum development in oral communication. Writing tasks, particularly SOPs and technical reports, are highly valued, but other forms of writing receive less emphasis. The study provides valuable insights into the linguistic needs of Mechanical Engineering students, offering guidance for curriculum development and instructional strategies to enhance their language skills for academic and professional success.

Abstract

Translating messages across languages while maintaining grammatical equivalence presents significant challenges, often resulting in deviations. These deviations stem from differences in grammatical structures between the source and target languages. This qualitative research study aimed to analyze the translation outputs of students enrolled in an English-Indonesian translation course, with a primary focus on grammatical equivalence indicators. The study encompassed 70 students across two parallel classes, resulting in a total of 70 documents available for analysis. The data were collected from the students' responses to a project involving news texts, specifically a news article from The Jakarta Post. The analysis employed Corder and James' Error Analysis (1998) methodology, encompassing error identification, classification, and specification based on grammatical equivalence indicators. The findings revealed that students frequently made errors in various grammatical aspects, including tense, aspect, number, voice, and person, with the exception of gender. Additionally, the study identified specific challenges related to the misplacement of English modifiers within noun phrases, leading to inaccuracies in their translations. These results underscore the importance of balancing theory and practical application in English language teaching, specifically in the context of translation. Emphasizing grammatical equivalence in both English and Indonesian is essential to enable students to produce accurate and idiomatic translations. This study not only sheds light on the challenges faced by students when translating from English to Indonesian but also offers valuable insights for enhancing translation education.

Abstract

The function of national education is to develop the ability to think rationally and form noble character in relation to Pancasila values, namely religious values, humanity, unity, democracy and justice. Axiology is a branch of philosophy that examines the benefits or values of knowledge acquired by humans. One branch of axiology is moral conduct (moral action that gives rise to discipline, especially ethics). Environmental ethics are guidelines on ways of thinking, behaving and acting based on positive values in order to maintain the function and sustainability of the environment. The axiological foundation of the national education system is important as a basis for analyzing the application of educational theory related to educational goals, especially in relation to Pancasila values. This study describes the benefits or values of axiology and its application in National Education. The conclusion of this study is that from an axiological perspective, the benefits of applying axiology to the environment in education that are expected to emerge are the awakening of students' conceptual knowledge about axiology-based national education, the development of procedural knowledge to develop students' skills and capacities in applying axiological principles, students are encouraged to develop their personalities to become wise and moral human beings with care for education, the realization of educational interventions for better conditions of students, successful in developing the attitudes and beliefs of students to try to become human beings with knowledge, skills, attitudes, and environmentally sound values to shape a sustainable future for future generations.
