This situation gives an excellent opportunity for the community to communicate with others whose different cultural backgrounds, ethnicity, and language. Commonly, they talk in Javanese, the local language spoken in Yogyakarta. Meanwhile, due to the engagement with those who speak in different languages, Indonesian and English are gaining more frequent usage. Concerning this situation, this paper is to investigate the language choice among students in Yogyakarta. This study also scrutinises their language attitude toward English, colloquial Indonesian, and local languages. In achieving the objectives, a sociolinguistic questionnaire is given to 100 sample respondents who are the students of Universitas Sanata Dharma.

The researcher is also eager to identify whether or not the students find difficulties to decide which prepositions (for or to) they should use in making a correct sentence, especially in translating the Indonesian prepositions untuk, kepada, ke, buat and bagi into English. This will be related to certain conditions in which the students' first language (mother tongue) influences their second language learning. Thus, it is also very important to find out whether or not the students are influenced by their first language (Indonesian) in second language (English) learning process.

Based on the Joint Ministerial Decree on Learning Guidelines during the Covid-19 pandemic, academic units in the orange and red zones are prohibited from conducting face-to-face learning. This policy requires academic units to switch the approach used in the teaching and learning process, and distance learning is applied as an effort to maintain the educational services during this Covid-19 pandemic. An effective approach should be applied and good preparation must be done to ensure that the teaching and learning process can run smoothly and effectively. Considering this situation the writer is interested in conducting classroom action research on the implementation of Ignatian Based Online Learning, which is developed based on the experience of Ignatius Loyola, to maintain the 'presence' in distance learning. The writer believes that distance learning should be more than just sending online home paper packets to the students. The teaching and learning process should be interactive to maintain the connection and to help teachers and students feel part of a group. It is expected that by implementing Ignatian Based Online Learning, the teacher and the students can feel the presence of each other and can work together to reach the course objectives even though they are separated from each other.

Due to this point, UniversitasSanata Dharma requires the students who study in the non-English Departments to pass at least B2 level of CEFR. And to be able help the students reach this level, English is taught as a compulsory subject in the curriculum. Meanwhile, sometimes it is not easy to teach English in a non-English Department. There are some factors that influence the teaching and learning process. Some of the students are not motivated to learn English or do not have enough background knowledge. Others might not be confident with their English. These conditions lead the writer to conduct a classroom action research in an English class for the non-English Department students to identify the effectiveness of Ignatian Pedagogy to improve students' competence, conscience, and compassion. Ignatian Pedagogy is developed based on the experience of Ignatius Loyola. The teaching and learning process includes the following elements: context, experience, reflection, action, and evaluation. It is expected that by applying this pedagogy the students will be able to improve not only their competence or skills in using English, but also their conscience, and compassion so that they can grow as fully human persons and be the men and women for others.
