Teachers' views influence how they choose pedagogical methods and how they execute teaching practices in the classroom. An investigation of teachers' views regarding the notion of "language socialization" (LS) and how it may be used to enhance pedagogical application via the use of social networking technologies (SNTs) in a Yemeni EFL setting is the subject of this study. In this study, 30 EFL teachers participated in a survey. Five males were interviewed out of the total number of participants. The findings revealed that the vast majority of teachers had good associations with LS as a teaching method and positive reactions to the use of SNTs in the EFL classrooms even though most participants had never used SNTs in their own classrooms. Because of a lack of access to and training in the usage of SNTs, teachers have been prevented from integrating them into their classrooms when teaching English. This suggests that instructors recognize the important functions that SNTs play in improving students’ language learning and socialization but that they lack first-hand experience and training in how to use them in their classrooms effectively. That there is a shortage of provision must be addressed as soon as possible to guarantee that Yemeni English as a foreign language teachers and their students have the chance to engage with new technologies in order to enhance their educational experiences critically.
This paper studies word collocation of “poligami” in two Indonesian novels entitled Ayat-Ayat Cinta 1 and Catatan Hati Seorang Istri 1, aiming to examine cultural perspectives about polygamy in literary works. Corpus data is used as the basis of studies to examine the collocation of the word “poligami” in the two novels. The results obtained are further classified into nouns, verbs, and adjectives using the language theory involving semantic prosody and culture linguistics. Based on the collocations of “poligami”, the two novelists appear to have different attitudes towards polygamy. The neutral attitude in Ayat-Ayat Cinta 1 indicates that the male author is not exactly in favor of polygamy while Catatan Hati Seorang Istri 1 written by a female author is positive and this reflects women’s acceptance of the idea of polygamy in the novel.
This study examined the way language socialization fostered literacy development. It aims at exploring and illustrating how the richness of multimodal and multilingual communicative practices has been part of parent-child interaction at home in Jagir community in Surabaya. Twenty one first grade elementary school students reside in urban area were observed during learning activities at home for a period of 12 months. Audio and video recorded of parent-child verbal interactions were transcribed and analyzed and children writing portofolio were assessed. Based on micro level analysis of parent-child interaction the studies examine the pattern of socialization. The result of the research shows that to teach their children, parents use several strategies which are multimodal in nature leading to children development of multiliteracies. It has been suggested that multimodal text making with parents (which includes the use of voice, image, and gesture) as well as the use of technological facilities help children cope with school literacy practices. Not only are students skillful in reading and writing task, but they also develop critical thinking which is very important for their ability of solving school assignment. The findings point on the implications of language socialization by discerning at the interaction between caregiver and child, rather than just one side of the conversation as conceived hitherto by most of language socialization studies.
Literatures have shown that discursive investigation on universities’ vision and mission statements can reveal the universities’ ideologies as well as the prevailing sociopolitical factors in the country. However, there is no such investigation within Indonesian higher education discourse yet. This study seeks to fill the gap by conducting a corpus-assisted analysis on the vision and mission statements of 100 Indonesian universities. By implementing CADS procedures, this study combines corpus linguistics techniques and ideological discourse analysis approach. The final results reveal the social responsibility of Indonesian universities to support public welfare and the emergence of internationalization movement within the educational system of the country, denoting collectivism and neoliberalism as ‘negotiating’ ideologies within the institutional discourse. It is related to none other than the view that universities are institutional bodies that cannot be stagnant as they must always be progressing towards the current development of society and even the world.
This study aims at describing how the use of English on youtube videos play a significant role in the socialization and acquisition of the language for children in Indonesia. It particularly focuses on the depiction of how the media serve a platform for children’s English language development and socialization and whether parents or other adults’ accommodation reinforces or counteracts the language. Ethnographic interviews were conducted on five middle class parents with children of 3-5 years of age so as to collect information on children and parents’ everyday practices with the media. The findings suggest that parents’ beliefs and ideologies on foreign language socialization as well as their English proficiency lead to their primary support for English. Their everyday media consumption and communication practices with children show how arenas provided by parents have turned into an assumed form of scaffolding in the way that children reflect on the language collected from the media. The research indicates that global practices of English on the internet intersect with local practices of language socialization.
