Abstract

Politeness strategies are important for people to interact and communicate with each other. One of the communities which are interesting to observe is the one with an educational setting. In this study, the writer is interested in investigating the application of politeness strategies by students and their lecturers on campus. This study focuses on politeness strategies found in the interaction between students and their lecturers outside and inside the classrooms. Two objectives of the current study are (1). To find out the politeness strategies applied by students when they make requests to their lecturers inside the classrooms, and (2) to reveal the politeness strategies students apply when they request lecturers outside the classroom. The researcher applied a qualitative research method. Data were collected by distributing questionnaires to the respondents of 22 FLA students of the 2020 batch. The researcher collected the data using DCT (Discourse Completion Task). In summary, in class, 33% of students mostly used Query Preparatory strategies which were very suitable to be used in a formal setting. When the students and lecturers were outside the classroom, the strategy they used the most was Performative (33%). This is not surprising because the location setting outside the classroom makes students more likely to communicate less formally. There were 32% of students who used the Preparatory Query strategy because they thought that it would be more polite to speak to older people using formal language
