Keberhasilan dalam pembelajaran biasanya ditunjukkan dengan prestasi akademik yang optimal dari para siswa. Tujuan pembelajaran dapat dicapai jika guru dapat menciptakan atmosfir di mana siswa sangat termotivasi untuk belajar. Salah satu cara untuk meningkatkan motivasi siswa adalah dengan memberi mereka umpan balik yang berarti mengenai kinerja mereka dalam belajar. Umpan balik bisa berupa umpan balik guru, umpan balik siswa, dan umpan balik dari rekan sejawat.

Umpan balik dapat diterapkan dalam berbagai teknik dan kategori sesuai dengan tujuan umpan balik. Dalam praktik ini, diberikan da...

Globalization enables people to be a part of a global community and live with global cultures. Nowadays, modern transportations and the advancement of information technology ease people to interact. Their interaction through different languages will automatically make a 'dialog' among cultures possible. Besides, translation also plays an important role in the spread of global cultures. As language is a part of human culture, inevitably, there is an exchange of cultures between the languages involved. This paper discusses the enrichment of Indonesian culture though translation from English into Indonesian. In the translation process, cultural words in English as the source language (SL) are transferred into Indonesian as the second language (TL). To illustrate how English words have entered Indonesian vocabulary, some works of translation including letters, novel, and textbook from English into Indonesian were investigated. As a result, it was revealed that English words are incorporated into Indonesian vocabulary through different ways which are classified into four types, namely (1) Pure borrowing (loanword), (2) Naturalized Borrowing, (3) Natural Equivalent, and (5) Created Equivalent. The latter, then, results in similar type called Newly Localized Equivalent. Besides, it is inferred that the influencing factors are the Indonesian goverment's policy and the widening scope if cultural words.

The languages used allover theworld have their own grammars consisting ofcertain components, like items, word order, and prosodic patterns. Based onthe findings ofthetypological research conducted bysome linguists, like Chomsky (1965), Greenberg (1966), andHawkins (1983), it is known that the human languages have certain tendencies. After comparing a number of 30languages, Greenberg made three classifications of language in terms of universal word order, they are; (1) the languages ofVSO type, (2) languages ofSVO type, and (3) languages ofSOVtype. Hefound that thethree types of classification correlate with the languages in other places in the grammar consistently. In addition, he also made 15 formulations of universal word orders,in which threeof themare; (1) Languages with dominantSVO order always have prepositions; (2) on the contrary, the ones with SOY type usually have postpositions; and (3) in the languages with dominant SVO order, the genitive and adjectives follow the noun. This formulation is supported by Hawkins after comparing 336 languages from different families. Based on the above formulation; it is found.that English hasuniqueness in terms of the phrase order. In this language, the order of NP is AN and GN despite having a relatively fixed order, SVO. This studyaimsto discuss the forms ofEnglish NP and to find outthe reason why English has uniqueness in its phrase order based on the formulation made by Greenberg and Hawkins.
