Abstract

The ability to speak English effectively is essential in global communication and professional settings. However, gaps often exist between theoretical approaches to language teaching and their practical implementation in classrooms, particularly in enhancing students’ speaking skills. Teachers frequently encounter challenges such as limited class time, large class sizes, lack of training, insufficient teaching resources, and students’ low confidence in speaking activities. Consequently, speaking instruction often remains focused on grammar exercises and textbook-based learning rather than authentic oral communication. This study aims to analyse the effectiveness of an English program in improving students’ speaking ability at LP3I Tasikmalaya Polytechnic. A qualitative case study approach was employed, involving ten students, one program coordinator, and two English teachers selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through observations, interviews, document analysis, questionnaires, and audio-visual materials, and were analysed using data condensation, display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the English Conversation Journal (ECJ) is the most effective program in engaging students. Additionally, the program improves pronunciation, vocabulary mastery, confidence, motivation, and speaking awareness. In conclusion, the English program is effective in enhancing students’ speaking skills and supports teachers in achieving learning objectives.

Abstract

 The advancement of digital technology compels educational institutions to optimize digital media-based promotional strategies to enhance the visibility and competitiveness of schools. In a specific context, SMKS Wikrama 1 Garut faces challenges in the form of limited human resources, variations in digital literacy, and the absence of a consistent and  structured digital marketing strategy. Although many studies emphasize the role of digital marketing in educational institutions, there is still a knowledge gap that includes a lack of integration of technology adoption theory, utilization of internal resources, and long-term relationship strategies in the context of vocational schools in rural areas. This research employs a qualitative-descriptive approach through in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis to explore the current conditions and strategies for optimizing digital marketing in schools. The results of the study show that the use of platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube is still sporadic, lacks data-driven approaches, and does not optimally showcase the school's vocational identity and narrative; content management is influenced by low perceptions of ease of use, limited strategic resources, and the absence of an editorial calendar; while the use of short videos and storytelling has been proven to generate the highest engagement but has not been implemented consistently. The analysis also identified that school websites have not been optimized through SEO, and collaboration with alumni and industry has not been maximized as strategic content. This research implicitly emphasizes the necessity of a theory-based digital marketing strategy, utilizing data and internal resources to enhance promotion while simultaneously establishing sustainable institutional networks.

Abstract

Bullying in schools remains a troubling global issue. Data from various national and international institutions shows that many students experience or witness bullying. Given the high number of bullying cases in schools, how can implementing anti-bullying education based on assertive communication reduce bullying and increase a sense of security in the school environment? Bullying can be prosecuted under several existing laws, both criminal and civil, as well as more specific regulations in the educational environment. Bullying violates Articles 310 and 311 of the Criminal Code concerning defamation and slander, which are often relevant to cases of verbal bullying or the spreading of rumors. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study method to gain an in-depth understanding of the effectiveness of the education program. Assertive communication is believed to be key to empowering students to defend themselves without violence, reject bullying behavior, and report incidents effectively.
