Abstract
The Negotiation in Students’ Casual Conversation: The Case of Muria Kudus University’s Intensive Course Group Chat in Facebook aims at a) describing the way how participants sustain their conversation, b) describing the negotiation pattern, c) describing the pedagogical implication of the findings. It is a qualitative research with Systemic Functional Linguistics approach on analyzing Casual Conversation. The instrument was the Eggins and Slade’s Move Network system. The corpus was 10 transcribed chats of Intensive Course Group Chat Muria Kudus University. The findings showed that 37.1% of the participants’ response was Sustain:Continuing Move, 45.7% was Responding Move, and 17.1% was Rejoinder Move. Participants therefore negotiated around what had been proposed by the initiator. Three Negotiation patterning were: (1) a pattern of splitting Moves relevancy (2) a pattern of collaborative support, (3) a pattern of particular choice of moves closed conversation exchange; particular others opened the channel of a conversation. The pedagogical implication was that Emoticons appeared in the text 64% functioned conventionally, while 36% functioned un-conventionally. The domination of Responding:Agree Move should be encouraged to the production of Developing and Rejoinder Move by treating the participants with some materials like expanding message using acceptable conjunction and Statement with question tagging.
