Abstract

Communication is an important activity in one's life. Whether humans or animals, everyone wants to share feelings, emotions, thought, ideas and hence develops one way or the other to communicate. It is a basic human right and essential to our quality of life as a social species. In everyday day life we come across various forms of communication. We communicate with one another on may different levels, because we do not have direct access to the thoughts and feelings of another people. We must rely on communication to convey messages to another. There is more to communication than simply using language to speak to one another. Communication exists on a number of levels and in a variety of forms.Key words: Communication and messages

Abstract

Indonesia is culturally rich. Indonesian art and culture are intertwined with religion and age-old traditions from the time of early migrants with Western thoughts brought by Portuguese traders and Dutch colonists.The culture of Indonesia has been shaped by long interaction between original indigenous customs and multiple foreign influences.In addition to these basic cultural sensitivities, religion plays a large role in Indonesian life and values. Over eighty-five percent of the people in Indonesia consider themselves Muslims, though their practices differ considerably from Islam as it's practiced in the Middle East. This is because of the rich texture of different religious traditions in the archipelago, from Buddhism and Hinduism to Chinese Confucianism to European Christianity to indigenous animist and ancestor worship practices. For many, the name of Islam is only the sheet that covers the shape of their ancestors' and communities' eclectic spiritual practices. The islands of Indonesia have been major trade hubs for over a thousand years, and each island has its own unique mix of religious traditions and practices depending on who decided to set port there. Therefore, while there are a few religious and spiritual practices that are practiced by a majority of the population, the main rule regarding religion in Indonesia is,"Judge not, lest ye be judged."? By and large, Indonesians are very friendly people, always willing to strike up a conversation and interested in connecting with foreigners. This can seem extreme to some travellers, particularly for those from Western cities where just looking at someone in the subway can be cause for angry glares.The arts of Indonesia are many, especially Indonesian paintings which are unique works of art. Indonesian culture, especially its architecture has been to a great extent dominated and influenced by the Indian, although European influences have also been particularly strong since the nineteenth century. Traditional buildings in Indonesia are built on stilts with oversized saddle roofs which have been the home of the Batak and the Toraja.Key words: Indonesian Tradition, Indonesian Arts and Language and People

Abstract

The use of flashcards had affected the kids‘ activity in learning the words during the classroom activity. For examples, guessing and matching game in pairs were also effective to make the kids‘ motivation to learn getting better. Flashcards are so easy, so simple and so unassuming that learners often underestimate their power. In this case, the use of flashcards could help the kids to recognize the vocabulary of common nouns. Flashcards are quite effective because they promote the act of repetition. Because of their inherent simplicity, which we’ve already talked about, flashcards easily lend themselves to repetition. That’s why they’re so freakin’ awesome. They’re simple and unassuming, but they can pack a mean punch.Keywords: Teaching English For Kids, Vocabulary Teaching and Flashcards
