Identity Negotiation and Pragmatic Language Use: Japanese ELF Users’ Narratives in Workplace
Get PDFThis study explores how Japanese L2 users in a higher education workplace in Japan experience language use and identity negotiation in the English as a lingua franca (ELF) discourse community, specifically focusing on whether/how pragmatic norms are constructed. The narrative analysis of the participants’ stories of their interactional experiences shows that the macro- as well as the mezzo-level discourses circulating around the intercultural workplace discursively made a significant impact on their pragmatic aspect of language use. The analysis also highlights the challenges faced by the participants in navigating their identities between contradictory sociocultural norms and co-constructing ad-hoc pragmatic norms. Yet, developing intercultural awareness relevant to ELF communication could lead to a breakthrough in achieving interactional robustness. The findings suggest the need for further investigations into the holistic use of ELF in intercultural workplaces in East Asia, as well as the implementation of ELF-focused pragmatic instruction in English education in Japan

PENDAMPINGAN PEMBERDAYAAN MASYARAKAT UNTUK PENGEMBANGAN PARIWISATA PULAU SEMAU NUSA TENGGARA TIMUR
Get PDFPulau Semau sebagai salah satu daerah tujuan wisata yang berdaya saing di Provinsi Nusa Tenggara Timur, namun masyarakat di Pulau Semau cenderung pasif terhadap potensi pariwisata yang dimiliki, hal ini terlihat dari masih jarangnya masyarakat local yang terlibat dalam penyediaan jasa maupun produk untuk ditawarkan kepada pengunjung. Hal ini juga disebabkan karena karena lemahnya kemampuan pelaku usaha dari masyarakat lokal dalam mengelola dan mengembangkan produk dan jasa, baik dari sisi manajemen maupun kualitas produknya. Oleh karena itu, pemberdayaan masyarakat melalui pendampingan untuk pengembangan sektor pariwisata di Pulau Semau diharapkan dapat membantu peningkatan kapasitas masyarakat terutama sebagai aktor utama dalam pengelolaan potensi wisata di Pulau Semau. Kegiatan pengabdian ini dilakukan dengan memberikan sosialisasi sadar wisata dengan tujuan meningkatkan kesadaran masyarakat akan manfaat keterlibatan mereka dalam pengelolaan potensi wisata yang dimiliki oleh desa mereka. Kemudian diberikan sosialisasi dan praktik pengolahan produk wisata berbasis kearifan local, serta sosialisasi tentang marketing, packaging, dan labeling produk sebagai buah tangan bagi wisatawan
SPENDING BEHAVIOR: REPURCHASE INTENTION FOR ONLINE SHOPPERS
Get PDFThe phenomena of online purchasing caused a rise in spending behavior. It was aided by the advancement of information technology, particularly the Internet. Electronic commerce creates an opportunity for numerous enterprises and consumers to respond by repurchasing products. An easy approach to get to the product, psychologically to follow the trend value, and a lower price from e-commerce would encourage customers to spend money to repurchase their favorite things. Based on that explanation, this research investigates the factors that drive the repurchase intention of online shoppers. The factors consist of electronic word of mouth (e-WOM), perceived convenience, and perceived value. The research’s sample was 188 respondents spreading online questionnaires in Indonesia. The findings reveal that perceived convenience and perceived value significantly affect the repurchase intention, yet electronic word of mouth (e-WOM) does not significantly affect the repurchase intention. In addition, perceived convenience significantly affects the perceived value, and the perceived value affects the electronic word of mouth significantly. The results emphasized the elements of spending behavior and would suggest the quality of the online platform should pay attention to it. So, the marketers will be able to make a reliable marketing approach to conduct the online business with compulsive buying by online shoppers
KARAKTERISTIK KEFIR SUSU HEWANI
Get PDFSusu fermentasi merupakan produk olahan susu yang diperoleh dari fermentasi bakteri asam laktat dengan atau tanpa mikroba lain (SNI 7552:2009). Kefir merupakan salah satu produk susu fermentasi yang mengandung etanol dan asam laktat sebagai hasil aktivitas fermentasi mikroorganisme yeast serta bakteri asam laktat. Kefir secara umum menggunakan susu sapi sebagai bahan baku, namun di tengah kebutuhan susu sapi yang meningkat dan ketersediaan yang semakin menurun diperlukan adanya alternatif susu hewani lainnya. Susu kambing dan susu kerbau dapat menjadi alternatif pengganti susu sapi karena ketersediaan kambing dan kerbau yang meningkat setiap tahun di Indonesia serta kandungan gizi kedua susu yang baik bagi kesehatan. Perbedaan kandungan gizi antar susu hewani menyebabkan karakteristik kefir yang berbeda. Susu kerbau yang memiliki laktosa lebih tinggi cenderung menghasilkan kefir dengan pH lebih rendah karena menghasilkan asam laktat yang lebih besar dari hasil perombakan laktosa. Kadar protein dan kadar lemak kefir sebanding dengan kadar protein dan kadar lemak susu yang dipakai sehingga kefir susu kerbau cenderung memiliki kadar protein dan kadar lemak yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan kefir susu sapi maupun kambing. Penggunaan bentuk starter kefir berupa bibit kefir (kefir grain) dan kultur starter menimbulkan karakteristik yang berbeda karena mikroba yang terkandung berbeda-beda, namun secara umum keduanya mengandung jenis bakteri asam laktat dan yeast. Aktivitas fermentasi bakteri pada dua bentuk starter dipengaruhi dari kandungan gizi susu hewani dan konsentrasi starter yang dipakai. Semakin tinggi konsentrasi starter, maka produk hasil fermentasi lebih tinggi
SOLID-STATE FERMENTATION DENGAN VARIASI MIKROORGANISME
Get PDFFermentasi merupakan proses pertumbuhan mikroorganisme pada suatu substrat tertentu untuk meningkatkan nilai gizi suatu bahan pangan. Fermentasi padat (Solid-State Fermentation) merupakan proses fermentasi pada substrat padat yang tidak menggunakan media cair. Solid-State Fermentation sering digunakan karena menggunakan lebih sedikit air yang dapat membantu menghemat biaya. Mikroorganisme yang digunakan dalam Solid-State Fermentation mayoritas menggunakan kapang kelompok Rhizopus, Aspergillus, dan Trichoderma, untuk khamir mayoritas Saccharomyces cerevisiae, dan bakteri yaitu kelompok Bacillus dan Bakteri Asam Laktat (BAL) seperti Lactobacillus. Proses Solid-State Fermentation bergantung terhadap jenis substrat dan mikroorganisme yang digunakan. Suhu inkubasi yang digunakan dalam proses Solid-State Fermentation spesifik pada jenis mikroorganismenya. Jenis mikroorganisme yang digunakan dalam proses Solid-State Fermentation menyesuaikan dengan spesifikasi substrat. Variasi mikroorganisme yang digunakan menghasilkan berbagai enzim yang berbeda, namun kandungan protein dan lemak pada hasil fermentasi akan meningkat serta kandungan karbohidrat akan berkurang. Metabolit sekunder yang dihasilkan dari proses fermentasi dengan variasi mikroorganisme serupa yaitu kandungan fenol meningkat seiring lama waktu fermentasi hingga batas tertentu dan perlahan akan mengalami penurunan
