This study analyzes Kiana Davenports the House of Many Gods, a novel that contextualizes the issue of the nuclearized Pacific and the islanders exposure toward the toxic substance as an intersection between environmental/eco-criticism and disability studies. Deriving from Carrigans concept of disabling environment, this article foregrounds the continuation of western colonialism and nuclear militarism in the Pacific which is positioned as the periphery, far from the Western metropolitan center. The presence of nuclearized military installations in the Pacific articulates the unequal relationship between the metropolitan center and distant overseas colony in the Pacific as a site for experimentation. The novel dramatizes how the islanders are exposed toward dangerous and toxic substaonces which ravaged their bodies, denied their agency as healthy citizens, alienated them from their landscape (aina) and kept them in a state of continuous disablement. Employing Carrigans concept of disabling environment, this paper argues that the exploitation of indigenous people is legitimized under the guise of advancing Western scientific advancement. This study concludes that the Pacific islanders as it is represented in the House of Many Gods are instrumentalized as the non-human in which their existence is necessary for the scientific progress of the Western powers.

Motherhood is seen as one of the essential aspects in a humans life. Although several values concerning motherhood is cross-cultural, its representation varied from time to time upon locations and cultures. Deriving from this line of thought, this paper compares the differing portrayal of motherhood from Asian and African literature. Undertaking the library studies, this article illustrates the depictions of motherhood and seeks to underline the reasoning why it is manifested through the selected literary works. The novels employed as the objects of study are The Joys of Motherhood by Buchi Emecheta and Ibuk by Iwan Setyawan. The finding extrapolates a global conception towards motherhood and how it is presented. It is concluded that the depiction of motherhood in the novels is employed to maintain a social construction that privilege patriarchy. The African motherhood may be different than what they call Asian motherhood. Yet mothers, no matter where they are will always focus on their childrens well-doing.

This paper offers a discussion on the interconnection between teacher professional development, teacher learning and teacher identity and how reflective practice can optimize Indonesian EFL teachers development of professional identity. This paper provides some ideas for designing reflective activities to foster the development of teacher identity. It presents practical suggestions about how to incorporate reflections in learning activities during the Teacher Professional Education (TPE). The reflection model proposed by Kolb (2015) is preferred as it is considered to be simpler and more suitable in the context of TPE in Indonesia. The reflective practice during TPE is fundamental to promote lifelong teacher learner identity.

English is an international language that most people in the world use to communicate. Video or movie is one of the effective media to be used in a language classroom. In the English Language Education Study Program (ELESPA) of Sanata Dharma University, movies with English subtitles were used in a class as a learning media. This research aims to know how ELESP students perceive English subtitled movies as learning media. There are two research questions in this research: (1) What is the ELESP students perception on the use of English subtitled movie? (2) What are the effects of using English subtitled movie for ELESP students? The researcher used a survey as the method in this research. The participants for this research were the students from C class batch 2016. The instruments used by the researcher were questionnaire and interview. The results of this research showed that most of the respondents had a positive perception of the use of English subtitled movies.

This study aims to investigate Shakespeares The Merchant of Venice in light of the application of Leechs politeness maxims. The study uses a qualitative method in analyzing the utterances of the major characters in the play; Shylock, Antonio and Bassanio, since most of the events within the play focus on their demands, personalities and behaviors. The purpose of this study is to reveal the degree of politeness reflected in the characters speeches. 17 extracts from Act 1 scene 3 (a street in Venice) and 6 extracts from Act 4 scene 1 (the court scene) are explored due to their importance in the plot development. In light of the analysis, some of the factors are highlighted according to their significant role in determining the use of politeness or impoliteness strategies. These factors are power, psychological aspects, personal values, irony principle, social status and religion. The study also examines the way in which the six maxims are employed in the extracts. To conclude, politeness strategies can be used to reveal much about peoples identities, values and psychology.

Vocabulary is one of the most important parts of language acquisition. Without vocabulary, people will not be able to deliver the message of the conversation. Therefore, students need to develop their vocabulary in order to be able to communicate in English. This research was conducted to investigate on how short story helped students on acquiring English Vocabulary in Basic Reading 2 Class. Therefore, the researcher had formulated two research questions: How do short stories help students to learn vocabulary in Basic Reading 2 class? and What are the activities using short stories that can be applied to teach vocabulary in Basic Reading 2 class? Theories from Nation (1990) and Parvareshbar Ghoorchaei (2016) were used to answer the research question formulated. Survey method was conducted in this research. The data were collected using observation sheet and field notes that were used to note the activities conducted in the class of thirty second semester students who were enrolled in Basic Reading 2 class, also an interview with the lecturer of Basic Reading 2 class. The result of this research is that there are five activities conducted by the lecturer. Two of the activities are stated in the theory by Nation (1990) and the other three were found in the teaching and learning process. Future researchers are suggested to explore more methods that will benefit the students of Basic Reading 2 class in their process of learning new vocabulary.

Similar to other studies responding to Krashens (1977) notion on natural acquisitionorder, this small-scale research aims at investigating whether Indonesian high school English learners also go through similar acquisition order as the respective notion. The data taken froma group of Indonesian high school students writing assignment were analyzed using theObligatory Occasion Analysis (Ellis Barkhuzien, 2005) to investigate the grammaticalmorpheme acquisition order of the students. Subsequently, the finding was analyzed to seewhether the acquisition order was influenced by Krashens hypothesis. The findings showedthat the morpheme acquisition order of the research participants did not go through similaracquisition order as stated in Krashens natural order hypothesis.
