Abstract

This study investigates the manifestation and resolution of lexical ambiguity within the unique communicative landscape of Generation Z. As digital natives, Gen Z frequently engages in multimodal and context-dependent communication, often embedding double meanings in everyday discourse for humor, identity expression, and social cohesion. Utilizing qualitative content analysis, this research analyzed instances of ambiguous lexical usage gathered from Gen Z-dominant social media platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter. A corpus of 150 samples was selected and analyzed through the lens of discourse analysis and pragmatics. The findings reveal that Gen Z commonly employs lexical ambiguity in the form of polysemy and homonymy, relying on contextual cues, shared cultural knowledge, and digital semiotics (e.g., emojis and memes) to disambiguate meaning. These results underscore the dynamic and strategic nature of language in digital spaces, offering insights into Gen Z's sophisticated use of ambiguity as both a communicative tool and a marker of group identity.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze student agency through the manifestation of motivation and participation within the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model at SMP Negeri 7 Pematangsiantar. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, this research explores how students articulate their self-capacity within a project-based learning ecosystem. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving the students. The data analysis is grounded in the dimensions of intrinsic-extrinsic motivation as well as cognitive, emotional, and social participation. The results indicate that PjBL serves as an incubation space for agency, capable of enhancing students' intrinsic motivation and learning autonomy. However, the findings reveal that student agency is not uniform; variations in engagement arise due to the influence of self-efficacy and the dynamics of peer relations within groups. These findings underscore that student agency develops optimally when supported by adaptive teacher facilitation, authentic project relevance, and inclusive group management. This study concludes that PjBL effectively acts as a catalyst for student agency when implemented contextually in learning situations that value student voice and choice.

Abstract

This mini research Introducing TOEFL and Strategies for Mastering the Listening Section: A Learning Program at SMA Negeri 1 Siantar was conducted with 21 eleventh-grade students (Class XI) as participants. The main objective of this study is to provide a structured and available step in preparing students to face academic English requirements, especially the TOEFL Listening section. The method used in this study consists of three stages: preparation, implementation, and evaluation. In the preparation phase, students were introduced to the TOEFL format and the types of listening questions. In the implementation phase, students were trained using listening strategies such as note-taking, predicting content, and managing time. In the evaluation phase, students’ progress and performance were assessed. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ familiarity with the test and their listening comprehension skills. This program highlights the importance of early training and strategic learning in preparing high school students for academic English proficiency tests.
