Abstract

This study discusses Korean and Indonesian morphosyntactic characteristics of closed interrogative sentences. The method used is descriptive qualitative with literature review and contrastive analysis. The results showed that there were differences and similarities in terms of closed interrogative markers, sentence structure, and sentence negation. The first difference in closed interrogative markers is that the marker in Korean is an interrogative sentence-ending (eomi) at the end of a sentence rather than a question word, whereas the marker in Indonesian is the question word apa at the beginning of the sentence and particle -kah at the beginning, middle or end of the sentence. Second, there are differences and similarities in sentence construction. Subjects that refer to the second person are omitted in Korean, whereas in Indonesian, the subject is required. The parallels lie in the fact that the predicate is a necessary component of sentence structure and that the presence of the object depends on the kind of verb used as the predicate. Thirdly, there is a distinction between Korean and Indonesian sentence negation in that Korean has a wider range of negation forms.

Abstract

In this article, we share our reflections and analysis on the potential of digital resources in teaching creative writing in English and promoting the learning of a foreign language in a collaborative environment. Our work aims to identify best practices in using digital tools such as Google Workspace, Padlet, and Issuu, for in-class activities with seventy secondary students. We conducted a study following an action-research methodology in the classroom and applied digital teaching strategies with learners of a second language. The focus was on a creative and collaborative writing process, to develop imagination in the conception of fictional stories while promoting collaborative skills. Our key question was "What are the digital pedagogical strategies that can contribute to the creative and collaborative writing competence in a foreign language with secondary school students?" We were interested in examining the potential of a writing collaborative activity in a digital environment as a stimulus to learn the linguistic rules and expand the vocabulary. Additionally, we analyzed the results of the assessment executed among peers, applying selected rubrics for the competencies of cooperation and participation. As a result, we found that the students had reached a higher level of reflection towards texts.

Abstract

This study aimed to explore and compare the difficulty level of alphabet letter recognition and hand-copying skills among children between two languages, English capital letters, and Dari alphabet letters. The participants were preschool children aged (4-5) in Taloqan City of Afghanistan. An observation method followed by a pre-test, a class session, and a post-test were conducted on the participants. The tests used in this study were Rapid Automatized Naming (RAN) and a paired samples t-test. The study's findings showed no significant difference in letter recognition between English and Dari letters; however, there was a significant difference in the hand-copying test. Also, the results of the study displayed that shapes of the letters played an important role in hand-copying the alphabet letters while it did not impact the letter recognition process.

Abstract

The existence of technology, particularly Google Docs, is vital to supporting students in surviving the online learning environment. This research, therefore, aims to investigate students’ perceptions of using Google Docs for online collaborative writing, as well as its benefits and limitations. There are two research questions addressed: (1) What are the students’ perceptions of the use of Google Docs for the ELESP students’ online collaborative? (2) What are the possible benefits and challenges of using Google Docs for the ELESP students’ online collaborative writing? This qualitative case study was conducted at the English Language Education Study Program of Sanata Dharma University. A close-ended questionnaire and semi-structured interview were utilized to collect data. The researchers discovered that most students had positive perceptions of using Google Docs for online collaborative writing. With the aid of its capabilities, Google Docs made online collaborative writing easier and more successful, particularly in students’ performance during group work, communication, and accessibility. Aside from the functionality of Google Docs, students’ active participation was also an important factor for successful online collaborative writing.

Abstract

The ubiquitous presence of mobile devices has benefited the implementation of foreign language learning through Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL). Previous research highlights the portability aspect of mobile devices such as smartphones that can lead to spontaneous, flexible, and personalized learning activities. However, challenges remain; particularly the connectivity issues. The present study seeks to continue the discussion by investigating 79 Indonesian undergraduate students’ experiences and perceptions of MALL in their Korean language classes. The data were obtained by distributing a questionnaire to the students. The validity and reliability coefficients were also measured. Interview sessions were conducted afterward with eleven students to dig for further explanations. The results demonstrate that most students used smartphones for sending messages to peers, checking notifications, accessing materials, submitting their work, and sending messages to lecturers. Regarding the applications used, they frequently utilized smartphones for accessing Google Classroom, Zoom, and WhatsApp during their Korean classes. The results also revealed that while they perceived MALL as useful and flexible for learning Korean toward increased language skills, motivation, autonomy, and critical thinking, technical problems, and connectivity issues remain to be the main challenges. This study discusses some concerns in implementing MALL and its implications for future research.

Abstract

The cultural context of speech communities represents people’s life experiences shaped by region, geography, ethnicity, language, and values; all these contribute to the construction of one’s identity. Our study explores the complex reciprocity between the socio-cultural environment and the learners’ identities. The cultural background of learners profoundly affects self-perception and identity construction. Simultaneously, identity construction has a reciprocal effect on interaction and involvement with cultural heritage. Hence, we investigate the impact of rural communities’ cultural repertoire on the personal and professional prospects of learners. To reach this end, third-year pupils from the High School of Sidi Housni, Tiaret, Algeria were selected using a non-probabilistic sampling. We collected data through a survey and an observation, employing both quantitative and qualitative approaches. The findings reveal that the cultural background influences learners’ perceptions of the world, besides their positive divergent attitudes towards gender roles. Furthermore, these valuable insights have important implications for cultivating a more inclusive and flexible learning setting. In a nutshell, divergent and convergent communities possess distinct qualities and resources that collectively foster a gradual transition toward embracing change.

Abstract

Reduplication in Acehnese serves many functions, such as plurality, reciprocity, emphasis, continuity, and repetitions. This word formation process has been previously analyzed in terms of morphology and phonology. The present study aimed to discover the constraint ordering of reduplication to determine the rules that govern each pattern of reduplication in the language. The study employed Correspondence Theory under the umbrella of Optimality Theory, focusing on total and partial reduplication, leaving out rhyming reduplication due to framework limitation. The results show that all patterns of reduplication in Acehnese follow regular application where well-formedness proceeds faithfulness (MAX-IO) and precedes reduplicative identity (MAX-BR). The well-formedness for total reduplication only includes the constraint of the complex nucleus, where a final diphthong in the base changes to a monophthong in the reduplicant. For partial reduplication, the constraint for well-formedness is that the syllable should be open, preceded by a reduplicant size of no more than one syllable, and alignment (either left for reduplicating prefixes or right for reduplicating suffixes). In addition, the well-formedness is proceeded by no insertion (DEP-BR). This study indicates the need to establish a ranking of constraints that govern the phonology of Acehnese outside the context of reduplication, which is a suggestion for future studies.

Abstract

English is the most learned language by EFL learners in multilingual countries, including Thailand. To communicate with others in English fluently, students have to learn English vocabulary. Since learning English vocabulary is difficult, it can be overcome with suitable learning strategies. One research question to be answered in this research is “What are the learning strategies undertaken by Thai students to learn English vocabulary?” This mixed-method research employed a Likert-scale questionnaire distributed to 18 Thai students, and the FGD interview was conducted via Zoom with 3 Thai students. The questionnaire contained 21 items of Likert-scale statements and two open-ended questions. The findings showed that the strategy they frequently use is the metacognitive strategy, while the strategy they rarely use is the memory strategy. It is recommended that future researcher interested in expanding this topic do extensive research to determine its trustworthiness and provide further information about the topic.

Abstract

It is widely acknowledged that coursebooks can be a useful source of information and knowledge for both teachers and learners. They are frequently written by subject-matter experts and can provide a logical and exhaustive overview of the target topic. Referring to the 2022-2023 academic year and with respect to the integration of English in Algerian primary school education, it was noticed that the circumstances in which the decision has been taken might need much more time because the interval between the decision of English integration and coursebook design was too short for a well-thought teaching material. Therefore, the major issue that is being questioned is how well ‘My Book of English’ meets the learners’ age, interest, and attractiveness. The issue under investigation seeks to scrutinize the un/suitability of the current English coursebook content and its impact on 3rd-year primary school learners as regards their competency, needs, and preferences. To answer the research questions and dis/confirm its hypotheses, the study relies on a mixed method, ensuring credible and valid data. Consequently, one questionnaire was put online, and addressed to primary school English teachers, and only fifty-four (54) respondents willingly responded.  Besides, the coursebook evaluation grid was filled out by two experts, i.e., primary-school English teachers’ trainers. The results reveal that the coursebook content contains some shortcomings such as poor representation of the language culture, authentic material, grammar logical order, and glossary. In fact, these deficiencies should be palliated for high-quality instruction and successful achievement.

Abstract

Self-regulated learning is an educational process that enables students to self-regulate when determining ideas or concepts and evolving their learning strategies to accomplish attainable outcomes. The present study investigated self-regulated learning strategies undergraduate English department students used and examined the significant relationship with students' grammar achievement. The researchers conducted a quantitative correlational design on 70 undergraduate English department students. The researchers collected the data through a self-regulated learning strategies questionnaire and students' grammar scores. The first result showed that the peer learning strategy was the dominant strategy used by students with the highest average score (M= 3.48, SD= 1.14), and the less dominant strategy with the lowest average score is time and study environment (M= 3.03, SD= 0.99). This study applied descriptive statistics using the SPSS program to describe the first research problem. The second result was analyzed using Pearson correlation, indicating a low negative correlation between self-regulated learning strategies and students' grammar achievement. Thus, this study concluded that the higher the grammar achievement students' got, the less self-regulated learning strategies they used, and the less grammar achievement students' got, the more learning strategies they used.
