Indonesian 3 is a lower-mid intermediate course designed to enhance Indonesian language skills and cultural knowledge further. This course focuses on developing reading and listening abilities to engage with various social and cultural topics. Students will also expand their active vocabulary, improve their writing skills by translating modified and naturalistic English texts into Indonesian, and gain a deeper understanding of essential grammar points through both written and spoken exercises.

Learning Outcomes

Upon successful completion, students will have the knowledge and skills to:

1. Demonstrate communicativeness and accurate pronunciation in spontaneous conversation.
2. Use an active vocabulary that enables them to engage in discussions and written communication on a variety of topics on Indonesian culture and society.
3. Recognise and produce phrases and sentence structures that enable them to engage in conversations and write short paragraphs on a variety of topics.
4. Demonstrate a developing understanding of Indonesian perspectives and practices on a range of cultural, historical and social issues.
5. Read, watch, listen to and comprehend authentic and simplified texts, enabling development of accurate transfer of meaning in translation.

You will need dictionaries for this course. The following are recommended as suitable for this level:

*Kamus Indonesia-Inggris (An Indonesian-English dictionary)

Author: J. Echols and H. Shadily

Edition: 3rd edition

Policies

ANU has educational policies, procedures and guidelines, which are designed to ensure that staff and students are aware of the University’s academic standards, and implement them. Students are expected to have read the Academic Misconduct Rule before the commencement of their course. Other key policies and guidelines include:

• Student Assessment (Coursework) Policy and Procedure
• Special Assessment Consideration Policy and General Information
• Student Surveys and Evaluations
• Deferred Examinations
• Student Complaint Resolution Policy and Procedure

Assessment Requirements

The ANU is using Turnitin to enhance student citation and referencing techniques, and to assess assignment submissions as a component of the University's approach to managing Academic Integrity. For additional information regarding Turnitin please visit the ANU Online website Students may choose not to submit assessment items through Turnitin. In this instance you will be required to submit, alongside the assessment item itself, hard copies of all references included in the assessment item.

Moderation of Assessment

Marks that are allocated during Semester are to be considered provisional until formalised by the College examiners meeting at the end of each Semester. If appropriate, some moderation of marks might be applied prior to final results being released.

Participation

Beginner level Indonesian is primarily focused on speaking skills, so merely studying the textbook on your own won't be sufficient. You're expected to attend classes to practice speaking as much as you can, and your instructors will make notes on your classroom performance. At the end of the semester, these will be collated to produce the “instructors’ assessment” which is worth 10% of your final mark. The main items to be assessed are:

• evidence of preparation for classes (bearing in mind lessons in The Indonesian Way should be studied prior to practice in class)
• the quality of participation in pairs, role plays and other classroom activities
• correctness, fluency and creativity in use of Indonesian in class

Assessment Task 1

Weekly quizzes x 10 (1.5 % each)

You are required to conduct a 10-minute short quiz once a week in your own time. The quizzes open at 5pm on Wednesday afternoons, and close at 12pm the following Wednesday. You have two attempts for each quiz. The grade will be available by the end of the following week.

No deferred exam will be given if you miss the quiz. Each quiz is worth 1.5% of your overall grade. The quiz is open book, and refers to lessons for that week in the Indonesian Way and the lecture for that week, where relevant. Your text book will be a better resource for correct answers than any translation apps or software.

Please be advised that you have the responsibility to always uphold  ANU's rules on the academic integrity. 

Assessment Task 2

Summative assesment quizzes x 2 (15% each)

There are two in-class major quizzes in this course, worth 15% each. Mastery of pronunciation and fluency in conversation is NOT tested in these tests (these are assessed in the instructors’ assessment and in the oral examinations). To do well in the tests, you're encouraged to complete all the exercises in the textbook at your own time and memorise the vocabulary in the relevant module. The two tests are worth 15% each or a total of 30% of your final assessment. Tests will be returned within two weeks where feasible. Tests take place in week 6 and week 12.

Assessment Task 3

Mid-semester oral exam (20%)

The mid-semester oral exam (20%) is conducted in Week 6 on Wednesday. The exam evaluates students' proficiency in spoken Indonesian, focusing on topics covered in the first half of the semester. The oral examinations test your communicative competence in Indonesian. Most marks (70%) are awarded for capacity to communicate in Indonesian in a conversational situation. Marks are also allocated for correctness of pronunciation and command of grammar and vocabulary (30% altogether). 

Oral exams are conducted in pairs or groups. You choose your partner well before the examination and you should practise intensively with him/her before taking the exam. You are assessed by an examiner, a regular instructor of Indonesian 1. The examination is audio-recorded. After the announcement of results, you will receive a copy of the examiners' written notes about your performance.

Oral examinations lasts for 10-15 minutes and comprises a role-play/dialogue or a narrative, followed by questions from the examiner. Given the brevity of the examination, it is imperative that you show initiative, creativity, fluency and capacity to keep calm during the twists and turns of a conversation. You will be given two topics/situations that have been covered in The Indonesian Way and lectures, and practiced intensively in class. You will be given a confirmed list of these topics/situations two weeks before each examination. You will choose which topic you wish to address and how you present. You are free to choose the role for which you are best prepared and which you can best show off what you can do.

Assessment Task 4

Final oral exam (25%)

The final oral exam (25%) is conducted in Week 12 on Wednesday. The exam assesses students' proficiency in spoken Indonesian, concentrating on topics covered in the second half of the semester. The oral examinations test your communicative competence in Indonesian. Most marks (70%) are awarded for capacity to communicate in Indonesian in a conversational situation. Marks are also allocated for correctness of pronunciation and command of grammar and vocabulary (30% altogether). Exam feedback will be returned within two weeks where feasible.
