    CARTOONS FOR YOUNG LEARNERS: PEDAGOGICAL AND CULTURAL VIEWS
    (International Journal of Psychosocial Rehabilitation, Vol.24, Issue 02, 2020) Supri, Ida Zuraida; Shidiq, Ilham Muammar; Awwali, Jasmine Nadira
    Children generally love animated cartoons. An animated cartoon is a film uses animation techniques to photograph a sequence of drawings rather than real people or objects. Stories in cartoons for children are humorous yet they may deliver life principles and concepts. Besides having a good time enjoying the cartoons, children learn and understand other people’s habits or cultures. As an addition, children can be exposed to English pronunciation, intonation, and stress in spoken English. Charlie and Lola is a cartoon produced by the BBC about a sibling’s daily life. Charlie is a caring brother and Lola is a witty cute sister. The stories are depicted in a simple yet interesting way. Showing this to young learners’ class is expected to lead to better intercultural understanding, broaden their knowledge and make sense of the world. McCloseky and Thornton (2002) propose that using stories (in cartoons) is very appealing and makes teaching more effective. Deacon and Murphy (2001) also add that stories also introduce new vocabulary and language forms within rich networks of associations. Therefore, integrating stories, specifically cartoons, in teaching and learning English may enhance young learners’ English and other related aspects even more as it is done deliberately this way. This paper will report on 1) young learners’ learning characteristics attended by Charlie and Lola Cartoon 2) language and cultural points they learn, and 3) their responses to the cartoon.

    A DIALOGUE JOURNAL: A Tool to Improve Classroom Interaction
    (International Conference on Language, Literature and Cultural Studies, 2013-08-22) Supri, Ida Zuraida
    ‘Do you have any questions?’ is a common question asked by a teacher to the students in the classroom. Unfortunately, this question often does not get the expected responses from the students due to several reasons. They may be shy or reluctant to ask questions. They simply do not have questions because things are clear or they just do not know what to ask. This situation indicates less favorable interaction between a teacher and students. A good communication between a teacher and students may lead to a better learning outcome. Brown (2001) states that from the very beginning of language study, classroom should be interactive. It means interaction is essential in determining the success in a language class. Therefore, an effort should be taken to cope with the above situation. Cited from Bolton (2013) Mansor (et al. 2011) proposes that dialogue journals can provide a substitute for actual conversation. This paper elaborates 1) challenges students encounter in language learning, 2) how dialogue journal facilitates interaction between teacher and students, and 3) to what extent dialogue journal helps better learning outcome.

    (TEFLIN International Conference, Indonesia University, 2013-08-27) Supri, Ida Zuraida
    Vocabulary is one of the influential elements that young learners must master in order to be fluent users of English. Fluent users mean that they are able to involve actively in different kinds of activities by using their receptive and productive skills of English: reading, listening, speaking and writing. Uberman (1998:20) states, “Vocabulary acquisition is increasingly viewed as crucial to language acquisition”. At this stage of life, young learners are capable of absorbing rich exposures of English if given appropriately since they are still in the stage of life called the golden age. This means that they are surprisingly able to learn and acquire vocabulary fast. Therefore, giving right scaffoldings may result in better learning outcome. On the other hand, young learners learn English quite differ from those of adults do. They need certain approaches in order to reach the learning objectives since they have unique characteristics in learning. Thus, the teaching and learning vocabulary should be designed in such a way catering their learning characteristics. This paper will discuss 1) challenges in vocabulary learning, 2) activities in teaching vocabulary, and 3) and suggestions to the teaching and learning of vocabulary

    (The 2nd UAD TEFL International Conference, University of Ahmad Dahlan Yogyakarta, Indonesia, 2012-10-13) Supri, Ida Zuraida
    Speaking is a productive skill that is very essential and enables students to convey their ideas. There are many activities involving speaking in a real world. Brown states that the benchmark of successful language acquisition is usually the demonstration of an ability to accomplish pragmatic goals through interactive discourse with other speakers of the language (2001:267). Therefore, preparing students with sufficient speaking ability is inevitable. There are plenty of activities allowing students to practice their speaking skills. One of them is by delivering a presentation. Brown (2001:274) also mentions that short speech or presentation is classified into extensive speaking perfonnance that is suitable for students of intennediate to advance level of English competence. Before delivering presentations, students have to employ other language skills, such as, reading, writing, or even listening in the preparation stage. Thus, this paper will report on I) what preparation students need to 00 before delivering a presentation, 2)what challenges that students face in the process of making their presentation, and 3) students' style in giving presentations.

    LEXICAL APPROACH: A WAY TO AUGMENT STUDENTS’ VOCABULARY MASTERY
    (Universitas Widyatama, 2014-02-14) Supri, Ida Zuraida
    “I think his dream job is different with mine”. In classrooms, we often hear students incorrectly use choice of words. The word ‘different’ should go with the word ‘from’ instead of with the word ‘with’. This occurs because vocabulary is taught in traditional way where it is understood as a stock of individual words with fixed meanings. As a result, students tend to guess randomly when they need to combine words. Michael Lewis’s Lexical Approach argues that language consists of chunks that produce coherent texts when they are combined (Lewis: 1997). The basic concept on which this approach supports is the idea that an important part of learning a language encompass being able to understand and produce lexical phrases as chunks. Students are thought to be able to perceive patterns of language or grammar as well as have meaningful set uses of words at their disposal when they are taught in this way. This paper will elaborate on 1. types of lexis, 2) activities to develop learners' knowledge of lexical chains, and 3) students’ responses to the use of lexical approach.

    STATE RESPONSIBILITY IN GUARANTEE TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION ACCORDING TO PERSPECTIVE OF HUMAN RIGHTS
    (International Journal of Psychosocial Rehabilitation, Vol. 24, Issue 1, 2020) Akbar, Muhammad Gary Gagarin; Guntara, Deny; Supri, Ida Zuraida
    Guarantees regarding freedom of religion for Indonesian citizens have been included in Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia 1945. The Government of Indonesia has made various legal products in order to fulfill the right to freedom of religion and belief. In recent times, issues regarding intoleration related to religious freedom have increasingly become more frequent in several regions in Indonesia which have caused conflicts between communities. The problem discussed in this research is how the state's responsibility in guaranteeing religious freedom in Indonesia is viewed from the perspective of Human Rights (HAM). This research uses the normative juridical method. The conclusion of this research is that the Indonesian government guarantees that every citizen has the freedom to embrace his religion and carry out his worship in accordance with their respective beliefs. This is indicated by the existence of various legal products issued by the government to guarantee religious freedom in Indonesia. Various kinds of existing laws and regulations, apparently not followed by the implementation of law enforcement, so that in some regions in Indonesia there are still cases of intolerance where a group of minority religious adherents are prohibited from carrying out their worship by adherents of the majority religion.
