Abstract

Listening is one of important skills in English language learning since it provides input for the students. However, many students still encounter a lot of listening difficulties caused by various factors, one of which that should be urgently solved is the use of poor and restricted materials in the language teaching and learning. As the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) develops rapidly, educators should take the advantages of it. Educators can use teaching media that provide various kinds of listening materials and can be accessed online. One of the most popular media that is accessible anytime and anywhere is YouTube. This literature review article aims to describe the use of YouTube as a media to optimize students’ English listening comprehension skill. YouTube provides a wide variety of materials for teaching language. Educators and students can use some of many recommended YouTube channels, namely BBC News Review, TED Talks, and Easy English. They provide listening materials; news review, talks, and daily conversation which are very useful for the students to improve their listening comprehension as well as their communication skills. However, several things need considering when using YouTube in language teaching. Educators need to plan the activities and find materials that suit the students’ needs, interest, and level in order to optimize the teaching of listening so that at the end, the listening comprehension skill of the students can be optimized as well. In addition, it is highly suggested that educators invite parents to work together in guiding the students when doing individual learning.

Abstract

This research discusses research that focuses on the capabilities of satellitebased LoRa, for satellite positions orbiting in low earth orbit (LEO). The expectation of low power wide area network (LPWAN) satellite can find the quality of transmitting data using LoRaWAN which is part of LPWAN and can provide quality of service (QoS) with high-quality real-time sensor data, low latency, long-range, low-power, no attenuation signal, no problem with obstacles in terrestrial areas, and other benefits that can be widely optimized. This article uses a comprehensive analysis of mathematical calculations as well as precise and accurate simulations for the actual development of satellite-based LPWAN. The satellite-based IoT is unlimited in terms of distance, to provide good services to all IoT users in the world. The comparison with terrestrial measurements is analyzed in detail, especially the signal attenuation factor that causes a lot of signal loss and data is not well received. Several methods are used to help reduce collision data, such as adaptive data rate (ADR) which can reduce collisions by 30%.

Abstract

The quasi-experimental study examined the effectiveness of nature-themed English songs in developing humanistic values among children in Early Childhood Education (PAUD). The population consisted of children aged 4–5 years, a critical stage for social, emotional, and character development. The research was conducted at Chatya Manis PAUD, and a non-probability sampling method was used. Two existing PAUD classes were deliberately selected because they were comparable in age, gender distribution, and baseline humanistic values. One class served as the experimental group, while the other functioned as the control group. Statistical analyses confirmed that no significant differences existed between the groups at the pretest stage, ensuring a valid comparison. The sample comprised 60 children aged 4–5 years (M = 4.6, SD = 0.52), evenly divided into two groups of 30 children, with a balanced gender composition. The experimental group participated in an eight-week intervention, whereas the control group continued with the standard PAUD curriculum. Data were analyzed with independent t-tests and hierarchical linear regression. Results show that the experimental group demonstrated a statistically significant and substantially greater improvement in humanistic values (M=4.25, SD=0.38) compared to the control group (M=3.45, SD=0.42), t(58)=7.84, p<.001, with a very large effect size (Cohen's d=1.99). Hierarchical regression confirmed the song intervention was a strong and unique predictor (β=0.74, p<.001), explaining 54% of the variance (ΔR²=0.54) in outcomes after controlling for age and gender. In conclusion, nature-themed English songs are a highly effective, evidence-based pedagogical tool for promoting humanistic character development in PAUD. The study recommends the systematic integration of such musical activities into early childhood curricula to cultivate empathy, environmental appreciation, and curiosity.
