Since fully online learning is new for most universities in Indonesia, teachers have to abruptly prepare effective learning material and activities to support student learning in distance. Several studies on listening classes in Indonesia have been carried out during the Covid-19 pandemic, but studies that focus on student’s perspectives on the material and activities in English listening class in higher education have not been conducted yet. This study fills this research gap because students’ perspectives are important to improve the quality of listening-focused courses. This study is conducted on January 2021 by involving nine English Education students enrolled in the Basic Listening class at the STKIP Media Nusantara Citra. Questionnaires and interviews are employed to collect qualitative data. Despite the abruptness of creating and adapting new materials with an unfamiliar learning style, results showed that students have a positive perspective toward the effect of the lecturers’ materials on their learning motivation, the usefulness of the material, the level of difficulty and quantity of the material and activities, the variety of material and activities, the usefulness of pre- and post-listening activities, the quality of audio and the suitability of worksheet.","PeriodicalId":284569,"journal":{"name":"Elsya : Journal of English Language Studies","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128309168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Involving students from 10th grade computer network engineering (X TKJ1) of SMK Swasta Imelda Medan, the method used in this research is classroom action research. The action research was conducted in two cycles and analysed two types of data, namely qualitative and quantitative, obtained with instruments of writing test and open-ended questionnaire. The results of the research show that the obvious improvement is, by using pantomime video as guided, students were able to create a variety of better ways to start a story or narrative. Besides, the students could make sure that they used the appropriate verb tense in their writing. Moreover, the students could widen their vocabulary in describing the action of the mimes in pantomime video. Remembering the online teaching-learning process held in this pandemic era is hindering students’ engagement with most English skills, the researchers proved that watching pantomime video via Zoom can significantly heighten students’ enthusiasm in learning online and push them to figure out ways, thus using more words, in describing pantomimes than they usually would with traditional lesson instrument of books or written materials.","PeriodicalId":284569,"journal":{"name":"Elsya : Journal of English Language Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131079909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Karl Maton offers sociological concepts of Legitimation Code Theory (LCT) - 'semantic gravity' and 'semantic density' – systematically. These concepts are used to analyse the way the classroom practices of secondary school learning in Indonesia, especially in Biology and History subjects. The researcher shows that the 'semantic wave' class can be a cumulative class practice. The most significant human society in education has the desire to build cumulative knowledge. Researchers usually produce ideas that have usefulness or attraction beyond the specificity of their original context. This research is useful to make the power to explore more in-depth knowledge with several policies that state that education must prepare students to live and work in a rapidly changing society by providing knowledge and skills that can develop throughout 'lifelong learning'. Educational learning can also be observed not only by context, but meaning and purpose also affect the cumulative and segmental parts. This problem forms the starting point for interdisciplinary research discussed in the papers collected in this special edition. Freebody (2013). At this point, the problem is the range with each discipline as the background of this research.","PeriodicalId":284569,"journal":{"name":"Elsya : Journal of English Language Studies","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124723903","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Politeness in English language teaching is still a major concern. This is considered a way of ensuring positive contact in the classroom. As an essential actor in the class, teachers and students must also cultivate politeness as a way to establish positive engagement in the classroom. In order to investigate the politeness phenomenon in EFL interaction, the researchers applied a descriptive qualitative research method. Two sections of English literature were included in this research. The key data sources were the individual student presentations recorded. The recording took fifty transcripts, which lasted between five and seven minutes for each performance. The transcripts were examined and debated on the basis of Brown and Levinson's theory of politeness. The findings of this research indicate that English students used different types of words to express their courtesy within the classroom. Such phrases were in the form of greetings, thanks, apologies and fillers. Some terms were also taken from the vernacular language of students who acted as a tool to soften their presentation. Such words were marked as positive and negative politeness. The results of this study could be used as a means of establishing effective interaction between teachers and students in the classroom.","PeriodicalId":284569,"journal":{"name":"Elsya : Journal of English Language Studies","volume":"206 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121455972","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Focusing on the paper written by Akdeniz University, Faculty of Education Nihat Bayat, titled ‘A study on the use of speech acts.’ This present paper uses descriptive qualitative analysis in an attempt to address the gap how to determine what type of speech act is used in the Turkish language strategy, which will provide convenience in teaching Turkish as a native and foreign language. Look at using data content analysis obtained from descriptive analysis for deeper processes. The data in this study were collected through asking participants to write the structure of the language they used in apologizing, complaining, rejecting and thanking. This present article aims to review and discuss the findings, as well as the strengths and weaknesses found in Nihat's paper. The article seems to have a clear flow on how to explain these two types of education and made the discourse easy to understand.
