ASILE CONFERENCE 2016


Presenter


Dwi Noverini Djenar
ASILE conference presentation:
Colloquium 2

The future of research in Indonesian language and culture education

Overview:
In this panel discussion, we present recent research on various aspect of Indonesian language, Indonesian language teaching and Indonesian society, and explore the contributions such research can make to our understanding of how best to teach Indonesian to non-native speakers. We also ask what future directions research can take, that will continue to contribute to the field of Indonesian language teaching. Our four presentations aim to be a jumping off point for extended discussion, which will give conference participants a chance to respond to the ideas presented and to contribute their perspectives, input and suggestions for the future of research and the teaching of Indonesian. The four presentation are:

Abstract:
Do we still need to teach literature?

Dwi Noverini Djenar
The University of Sydney
 
There are many reasons why it is useful for students of Indonesian to read literary texts. Reading literature enriches language learning, enables students to examine social issues relevant to Indonesian society, and encourage them to critically reflect on their own society. Literature was an integral part of Indonesian teaching in Australia; however, in recent years it is taught only minimally. Is literature still relevant in Indonesian language teaching? How can we frame it within Indonesian language teaching today? What conceptual approaches can we call on to provide disciplinary depth to our teaching? I will draw on insights from socio-anthropological linguistics and stylistics to help me contextualize and address these questions.
