KATA PENGANTAR
Berbagai usaha untuk meningkatkan mutu akademik dan kualitas
Perguruan Tinggi di Indonesia telah banyak dilakukan. Salah satu upaya tersebut
adalah peningkatan kualitas penulisan skripsi, thesis, dissertasi dan jurnal ilmiah
dalam bahasa Inggris. Sayangnya, hingga kini masih sedikit mahasiswa dan
akademisi di Indonesia yang mampu menghasilkan tulisan dalam bahasa Inggris
dengan kaedah tata bahasa yang baik dan benar.
Walaupun tidak berbahasa ibu bahasa Inggris, para peneliti di Jepang,
Jerman, Prancis, Italia dan Korea sangat produktif dalam menghasilkan tulisan
ilmiah dalam bahasa Inggris. Mereka memiliki kiat tersendiri untuk menyiasati
kekurangan bahasa. Professor Antonio Strozzi, pengarang buku How to Write a
Technical Paper in English memberikan tips berikut:
I learned to write engineering papers in English by collecting useful phrases

from every article in English that I read. I have used these phrases throughout my
career in academia, and I believe that they have served both me and my students
very well.
Sangat sulit untuk mengumpulkan berbagai useful phrases yang dimaksud
oleh Professor Strozzi diatas. Frase-frase tersebut tersebar di berbagai jurnaljurnal internasional dari berbagai bidang kelimuan. Buku yang sekarang Anda
pegang ini berupaya untuk menghadirkan frase dan ungkapan bahasa Inggris
tersebut ke hadapan Anda. Frase-frase yang kami susun adalah ungkapan yang
sering digunakan oleh para peneliti kelas dunia. Kami memberikan banyak variasi
untuk satu bahasan tertentu, sehingga Anda akan mampu menghasilkan rangkaian
kata dan kalimat yang dinamis, tidak diulang-ulang dan monoton.
Akhir kata, keberhasilan dunia pendidikan Indonesia adalah keberhasilan
bangsa Indonesia untuk dapat berdiri sejajar dalam peta persaingan ilmu
pengetahuan dunia. Semoga buku ini dapat bermanfaat bagi perkembangan ilmu
pengetahuan di Indonesia.

Tips#1. Mengapa Topik Penelitian Anda Begitu Penting?
Sebuah karya tulis baik itu skripsi, thesis, dissertasi ataupun jurnal ilmiah
memiliki ciri khasnya sendiri-sendiri. Meskipun sedikit berbeda satu sama lain,
semua jenis karya tulis di atas memiliki beberapa kesamaan yang cukup
mendasar.
Salah satu kesamaan tersebut terletak pada penekanan betapa pentingnya
kemampuan penulis untuk menarik perhatian pembaca sejak pandangan pertama.
Hal ini dapat dilakukan dengan menonjolkan sisi keterbaruan dari riset yang
sedang Anda lakukan. Anda harus menjual penelitian Anda dengan memberikan
latar belakang mengapa Anda memilih topik itu. Apa saja fitur dan karakteristik
utama yang menjadikannya layak untuk diangkat menjadi sebuah topik penelitian.
Mengapa banyak peneliti lain yang juga tertarik melakukannya?
Selain itu, Anda juga perlu menjelaskan jenis dan model yang umum
digunakan berkaitan dengan topik tersebut. Paparkan juga secara ringkas
mengenai trend apa saja yang saat ini sedang populer. Peran dan kontribusi dari
peneltian tersebut juga perlu Anda jabarkan secara singkat agar pembaca
memahami aplikasi nyata dari hasil studi tersebut. Dengan menceritakan hal-hal
di atas, bukan hanya para pembaca yang dapat merasakan betapa pentingya topik
yang sedang Anda geluti, tetapi Anda juga sebagai penulis akan merasakan hal
yang sama sehingga akhirnya memotivasi Anda secara tidak langsung.
Untuk menuliskan secara detil tentang mengapa topik penelitian Anda
begitu penting bukanlah pekerjaan yang mudah. Terlebih jika harus ditulis dalam
bahasa Inggris. Ketepatan tenses dan pemilihan kata yang sesuai kerap membuat
pusing kepala. Untuk mengatasi keterbatasan tersebut, berikut ini disajikan frasefrase yang Anda dapat gunakan untuk menjelaskan mengapa penelitian yang Anda
lakukan begitu penting. Anda cukup mengganti X dengan nama penelitian Anda
dan menyisipkan karakteristik penelitian Anda ke dalam titik-titik yang telah
disediakan.

Tips#2. Kilas Balik Penelitian Yang Berkaitan dengan Topik

Anda
Sejarah dan kilas balik penelitian harus diberikan dengan ringkas namun
tetap menyeluruh. Hal ini dapat dilakukan dengan mereview dan membuat
ringkasan topik kajian Anda sejak minimal 10 tahun penelitian ke belakang.
Dengan cara ini, Anda sebagai peneliti diharapkan tidak melakukan sesuatu yang
sebenarnya telah dilakukan oleh peneliti lain di belahan dunia yang berbeda.
Seperti anjuran lama yang berbunyi Do not reinvent the wheel!
Selain perkembangan terkini yang perlu diberikan secara singkat, Anda
harus dapat menceritakan siapa, kapan dan dimana tepatnya topik yang sedang
Anda teliti tersebut pertama kali dilakukan. Hal ini dapat memberikan gambaran
secara global tentang siapa sebenarnya pemain-pemain besar yang
berkecimpung di dalam topik yang sedang Anda pelajari. Di masa depan,
informasi ini akan sangat bermanfaat bagi Anda untuk mencari sponsor, Professor
atau supervisor untuk studi Anda berikutnya jika ingin melanjutkan S2, S3 atau

dunia. Berbagai upaya pendekatan pun dilakukan dengan beberapa alasan
kepraktisan. Para peneliti di berbagai bidang disiplin ilmu menggunakan asumsi
yang berbeda-beda untuk memodelkan suatu fenomena yang ingin dikaji.
Semakin sedikit asumsi yang digunakan, semakin banyak pula variabel yang
harus diperhitungkan. Namun, hal ini akan memberikan hasil yang mendekati
kondisi ideal.
Oleh karena itu, bahasan mengenai ruang lingkup dan asumsi apa saja
yang membatasi penelitian-penelitian yang sudah ada perlu dijelaskan dengan
singkat. Apakah saat ini batasan ruang lingkup tersebut masih ada atau sudah
mulai berkurang, sehingga metode yang ada sekarang ini mendekati model yang

BACK COVER
Sebelum menulis skripsi, thesis, ataupun jurnal ilmiah, Anda tentunya
menghabiskan banyak waktu untuk membaca tumpukan jurnal dalam bahasa
Inggris yang berhubungan dengan topik penelitian Anda. Sedikit demi sedikit
Anda mulai menemukan dan mengumpulkan frase dan ungkapan penting yang
sering Anda temui. Frase-frase tersebut bersifat generic. Artinya Anda tidak akan
melanggar hak cipta dan dianggap melakukan tindakan plagiat karena
menggunakannya. Yang perlu Anda lakukan adalah menyisipkan data dan hasil
penelitian Anda ke dalam ungkapan-ungkapan tersebut. Hilary Glasman-Deal,
pengarang buku Science Research Writing For Non-Native Speakers of English
dan seorang trainer penulisan karya tulis ilmiah di Imperial College London
memberikan kiat jitu berikut ini:
When your language skills are not perfect, organizing your information in a
conventional way and using conventional language are very important.
Sayangnya, banyak diantara kita yang salah dalam memilih frase-frase
tersebut. Ironisnya, frase tersebut bahkan digunakan dalam konteks yang tidak
tepat. Buku ini menyajikan berbagai macam ungkapan-ungkapan penting dalam
bahasa Inggris dengan kaidah tata bahasa yang sesuai. Penting juga untuk
mengetahui bahwa para dewan juri dalam sebuah jurnal internasional akan merasa
risih dengan penggunaan istilah yang jarang digunakan atau terdengar aneh. Oleh
karena itu, buku ini juga memberikan banyak variasi ungkapan yang sering
digunakan oleh peneliti kelas dunia, sehingga Anda mampu menghasilkan
rangkaian kata dan kalimat yang mengalir dinamis dan tidak diulang-ulang. Anda
dapat menggunakan frase-frase yang ada dalam buku ini sebagai template untuk
nantinya dapat Anda gunakan kembali pada riset-riset selanjutnya.
