Teaching English generic nouns: The exploration of the generic idea in English and Indonesian and the applications of explicit instruction in classroom
Although the generic idea is often expressed in discourse, the acquisition of it is so slow among learners. Moreover, this idea is expressed through a highly complex system of the English language called the article system. As a result, learners tend to make errors when they attempt to convey the generic idea in their output. Since the Indonesian language has a different way to express the generic idea, Indonesian learners of English may be interfered by their first language when expressing this idea. Consequently, errors are inevitable. A thorough examination at how the generic idea is expressed in English and in Indonesian is perhaps the only way to understand this complexity. To help learners express the idea correctly and appropriately, teachers should give explicit instruction in forms of mini lesson and explicit corrective feedback (i.e. metalinguistic feedback). This article presents all the patterns to express the generic idea both in English and Indonesian, poses some pedagogical implications and discusses some useful approaches for English teachers in dealing with it

Applying Cognitive Linguistics to teaching English prepositions in the EFL classroom
This paper reports on a quasi-experimental study investigating the effect of cognitive linguistics-grounded instruction on learning the prepositions in, on, and at, which are known to pose tremendous difficulty to English language learners due to their language-specific features and polysemous nature. The participants (N = 44) were adolescent learners at a school in Indonesia. They were assigned into the cognitive group and the rule group. The cognitive group was presented with pictorial representations of the prepositions and cognitive tools used to motivate non-spatial uses, while the rule group was provided with rules. Participants’ performance on the three uses (i.e. spatial, temporal and abstract) was measured with pre-, post-, and delayed post-tests in a form of gap filling. The study yielded mixed results. The findings demonstrate that the cognitive group outperformed the rule group in the overall immediate and delayed post-tests. The cognitive group improved significantly in the immediate post-test; however, the positive effect did not last until the delayed post-test. On the other hand, the rule group gained a little in the immediate post-test, but the group’s performance decreased significantly in the delayed post-test. Although there was no indication of long-term effects of the cognitive instruction, the results still indicate a value of applying cognitive linguistics to teaching the prepositions, and thus lend support to the applicability of cognitive linguistic theory in second language instruction
Input-based processing instruction vs. output-based traditional instruction in learning plural -s
This paper reports the results of a quasi-experimental study investigating the relative effects of input-based processing instruction and output-based traditional instruction on Indonesian EFL learners’ ability to interpret and produce sentences containing the English plural marker -s. Subjects involved in this study were 20 secondary school learners (initially 97 learners) who sat in four intact classes. The classes were assigned into two groups randomly, namely, with processing instruction and traditional instruction. The processing instructional treatment consisted of grammar explanation, explicit information on a correct processing strategy, and structured input activities aimed at altering learners’ default input processing strategy and thus enhancing formmeaning mappings. On the one hand, the traditional instructional treatment included explanation of grammar rules and output-based activities directed at improving the learners’ ability to produce the form. On the other hand, the pre-test and post-test comprised an interpretation task and a production task. The results show that both types of instruction are equally effective in assisting learners to correctly interpret the target feature, and traditional instruction is more effective in enabling subjects to produce plural -s, although it does not differ significantly from processing instruction. Additionally, the results indicate that the subjects’ productive knowledge was still somewhat problematic despite having developed good interpretative knowledge of the form. Pedagogical implications are discussed at the end of this study
Hukum yang Visioner sebagai Orientasi Pembangunan Hukum Indonesia Menuju Indonesia Emas 2045
Indonesia sedang mempersiapkan diri untuk menjadi negara maju yang ingin dicapai ketika Indonesia berusia 100 tahun pada tahun 2045. Salah satu permasalahan yang perlu diatasi menuju Indonesia Emas 2045 adalah korupsi yang masif di Indonesia Korupsi merupakan salah satu tindak pidana yang menimbulkan kerugian bagi keuangan Indonesia dimana berdasarkan data dari ICW pada tahun 2022 total kerugian negara yang dialami oleh Indonesia mencapai 42,747 triliun rupiah. Beberapa alternatif selain hukuman pidana penjara bagi pelaku tindak pidana korupsi bisa dijadikan referensi bagi Indonesia seperti di Jepang dengan menerapkan sanksi sosialnya yang menimbulkan rasa malu bagi pelaku tindak pidana korupsi, atau di Jerman yang menerapkan aturan bagi pelaku tindak pidana korupsi untuk melakukan pengembalian nilai uang korupsi kepada negara. Indonesia berusaha mengatasi disparitas dalam pemidanaan terhadap pelaku tindak pidana korupsi dengan mengeluarkan Peraturan Mahkamah Agung Republik Indonesia Nomor 1 Tahun 2020 tentang Salinan Pedoman Pemidanaan Pasal 2 dan Pasal 3 Undang-Undang Pemberantasan Tindak Pidana Korupsi. Aturan ini mengatur mengenai seberapa berat dan ringannya hukuman pidana terhadap tindak pidana korupsi berdasarkan kategori “kerugian keuangan negara atau perekonomian negara, tingkat kesalahan, dampak, dan keuntungan, rentang penjatuhan pidana, keadaan – keadaan yang memberatkan dan meringankan, penjatuhan pidana, dan ketentuan lain yang berkaitan dengan penjatuhan pidana.
