Abstract

The concept of green flag in romantic relationships has gained increasing attention as a representation of healthy and supportive partner. However, its application in literary studies, particularly in relation to masculinity remains underexplored. This study aims to analyze the representation of the green flag concept in relationships through the character of Atlas Corrigan in the novel It Starts With Us by Colleen Hoover. It also highlights how Atlas’s actions and behaviors reflect green flag traits and demonstrate a form of non-hegemonic masculinity within a contemporary social context. This study adopts a sociological approach in literature, which sees literary works as a reflection of social realities, cultural values, and norms of interaction that exist in society. The theoretical framework applied includes the concept of the green flag in relationships, Judith Butler's (1990) theory of Gender Performativity, as well as research on masculinity. This research method uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data sourced from dialogues, narratives, and character interactions of Atlas Corrigan that are relevant to the focus of the research. Data were collected using a close reading technique and analyzed using thematic coding based on the green flag indicators, gender performativity, and masculinity type. The findings show that atlas consistently demonstrates green flag traits such as empathy, healthy communication, respect for boundaries, and emotional support. These repeated behaviors construct a non-hegemonic masculinity that is more egalitarian and supportive, reflecting a shift in contemporary social values toward healthier romantic relationship and more inclusive masculine identities in popular literature. This study contributes to literary studies by offering a new perspective on positive masculinity and encouraging the inclusion of healthy relationship representations in literary works.

Abstract

Grammar instruction in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context is frequently perceived as anxiety-inducing and monotonous, particularly when learning is dominated by rule memorization and form-focused explanations. This issue is especially critical for pre-service English teachers, as their experiences as learners may influence their future teaching practices. Although gamification has been widely adopted to enhance engagement in grammar learning, many existing practices rely on surface-level mechanics such as points and quizzes, offering limited support for deep cognitive processing. To address this gap, this study conducted a needs analysis to examine pre-service English teachers’ perspectives on grammar instruction and their readiness for meaningful gamified learning. Employing a descriptive quantitative survey design, data were collected from 49 undergraduate students from English Education and English Literature programs who had completed grammar courses. The questionnaire explored grammar anxiety, digital readiness, flow potential, and gamification design preferences, and the data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The findings reveal a moderate level of grammar anxiety and a notable gap between grammatical knowledge and its application in communication. At the same time, participants demonstrated high digital readiness and strong potential for immersive engagement. Importantly, they expressed a clear preference for deep, narrative-based gamification rather than quiz-oriented activities. These findings suggest that pre-service English teachers are cognitively and psychologically prepared for a deep-learning-oriented gamified grammar model, providing a foundation for future model development in teacher education contexts.Keywords: grammar anxiety, gamification, pre-service English teachers, needs analysis, grammar instruction

Abstract

Penulisan artikel ilmiah berbasis skripsi masih menjadi salah satu tantangan bagi mahasiswa karena banyak mahasiswa cenderung memindahkan isi skripsi secara langsung ke dalam artikel tanpa parafrase, pemadatan, dan penyesuaian dengan struktur jurnal. Selain itu, mahasiswa juga masih mengalami kesulitan dalam menyesuaikan naskah dengan template jurnal, memilih jurnal target, serta memahami proses submit artikel melalui Open Journal System (OJS). Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kapasitas publikasi mahasiswa melalui pendampingan penulisan artikel ilmiah berbasis skripsi. Metode pelaksanaan kegiatan dilakukan dalam bentuk pelatihan dan pendampingan melalui penyampaian materi, diskusi interaktif, praktik parafrase dan pemadatan isi skripsi, penyesuaian template jurnal, pemilihan jurnal target, simulasi submit artikel, serta refleksi peserta. Evaluasi kegiatan dilakukan menggunakan angket sebelum dan sesudah pendampingan untuk mengukur perubahan pemahaman peserta. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pemahaman peserta mengenai perbedaan skripsi dan artikel ilmiah dari 32,7% menjadi 87,8%. Pemahaman bahwa artikel tidak boleh hanya berupa copy-paste atau ringkasan skripsi meningkat dari 28,6% menjadi 89,8%, sedangkan pemahaman tentang pemilihan jurnal target meningkat dari 22,4% menjadi 80,6%. Pendampingan ini membantu peserta memahami proses transformasi skripsi menjadi artikel ilmiah, penggunaan template jurnal, dan tahapan submit artikel. Dengan demikian, pendampingan ini terbukti membantu meningkatkan literasi publikasi dan kesiapan mahasiswa dalam mengembangkan skripsi menjadi artikel ilmiah yang lebih sesuai dengan standar jurnal.
