This study explores the representation of traumatic experiences in H.G. Wells' novel The Island of Doctor Moreau. Traumatic experiences are unpredictable, unpreventable situations that overwhelm victims and disrupt their ability to cope. Literature can provide insights into the range of responses to such overwhelming experiences as a reflection of human existence. The objective of this research is to increase awareness and understanding of trauma and mental illness through the analysis of literary depictions. Using a qualitative research approach, the study examines the traumatic experiences encountered by the protagonist, Edward Prendick, in the novel. The analysis categorizes Prendick's traumatic experiences into three main themes: a) being stranded, drifting away, and lost; b) witnessing death and seeing dead bodies; and c) meeting scary creatures, being attacked, and being terrorized. The findings reveal how the novel portrays the psychological and emotional impact of trauma on the protagonist, highlighting the challenges faced by victims of overwhelming and life-threatening situations. By analyzing the literary representation of trauma, this study aims to foster greater empathy and understanding for those affected by traumatic experiences and mental health issues. The in-depth qualitative analysis of the narrative techniques and thematic elements in the novel contributes to the literature on the literary depiction of trauma and its implications for raising awareness and promoting mental health.Keywords: Traumatic experiences, psychology, novel

The biggest obstacle for teachers and tutors is the lack of students' vocabulary. It causes students to feel difficulty understanding the meaning of English, particularly their performance in applying and developing four skills of English. Therefore, this research aims to enhance students' English vocabulary mastery through a semantic mapping learning model. This model was applied to seventh-grade students in the 7.2 class of MTs Al-Yusra Gorontalo, consisting of ten students. Classroom Action Research (CAR) was used as the method of this study. For collecting data, there are four phases of CAR used; they were planning, action, observation, and reflection. Two cycles were applied in this study because the first cycle did not improve students' vocabulary. Based on the data finding on cycle one, the scoring average of students' task results was 56,2. It is because 80% of students still got a low score, and 20% got a perfect score. The content of the task was about the questions of material "Noun". Then, in cycle two, it was applied by involving students in the classroom action; they were asked to present the result of their group discussion of semantic mapping of Noun material. After that, they did the second task, and the average of their score was 79,5. It could be concluded that the semantic mapping model greatly affected the students' mastery of the vocabulary taught by the teacher.

The focus of this study is to figure out how ready English teachers are in West Popayato Subdistrict junior high schools to adopt the newly established curriculum. The method of data collection employed was interviews, with two English teachers from SMP Negeri 2 West Popayato and SMP Negeri 3 West Popayato Satap helping as participants. The interactive analysis phases of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing from Miles & Huberman were applied in data analysis methodologies. The findings demonstrated that English teachers were not at the point where they were ready to adopt the accelerated curriculum in their schools. The instructors brought up three points. Firstly, parents' involvement is still below the level of collaborating in tandem with teachers as resource persons. Second, to allow students to learn based on their accomplishments, teachers do not separate their classes into at least two groups that are subsequently taught by the same teacher. Third, teachers continue to employ the Ministry of Education and Culture's flow of learning objectives. Because teachers are still getting used to the accelerated curriculum, these three points are still in the early stages of implementation. Thus, according to the study's findings and the stages of the accelerated curriculum's implementation table provided by the Ministry of Education and Culture, English teachers are not yet at the point where they are prepared to implement it.

This study analyzes the difficulties faced by eighth grade students at MTs Negeri 2 Buol in reading aloud. This research aims to identify challenges and provide insights into the difficulties students face in reading aloud. The study used qualitative methods, including observation and semi-structured interviews with students and English teachers. The results showed that the main difficulty students faced was lack of comprehension (79.16%), then followed by pronunciation difficulties (70.83%) then followed by slowing reading speed which was (62.5%), and finally anxiety at (54.16%). Pronunciation difficulties are also common, where students often focus too much on articulation and lack of vocabulary, leading to errors in word pronunciation. Lack of comprehension became a significant issue due to students' limited knowledge of what they read, which hindered their ability to present the material fluently. Lastly, anxiety plays an important role, with students experiencing excessive anxiety due to factors such as low self-confidence, fear of making mistakes, discomfort with their reading ability, and fear of being laughed at by peers if they make mistakes.

Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi dampak sosial, budaya, dan akademik yang dialami mahasiswa Indonesia asal Provinsi Gorontalo yang menempuh pendidikan tinggi di luar negeri dan di universitas terkemuka di Indonesia. Penelitian ini berfokus pada tantangan adaptasi, termasuk gegar budaya, seperti yang dicontohkan oleh pengalaman salah satu peserta, Wulan, selama studinya di Michigan State University. Penelitian ini mengkaji lebih lanjut pengalaman serupa dari sembilan peserta lainnya yang belajar di Sydney University, Monash University, Leicester University, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Universitas Indonesia, dan Institut Teknologi Bandung. Melalui analisis naratif, penelitian ini menyoroti penyesuaian budaya, interaksi sosial, dan integrasi akademik yang dihadapi oleh para siswa tersebut. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa meskipun pada awalnya terdapat kesulitan seperti hambatan bahasa, perbedaan norma sosial, dan lingkungan akademik yang asing, siswa pada akhirnya beradaptasi dan mendapatkan pengalaman lintas budaya dan akademik yang berharga. Pengalaman-pengalaman ini tidak hanya meningkatkan pertumbuhan pribadi mereka tetapi juga berkontribusi pada institusi asal mereka melalui transfer pengetahuan dan perspektif global.

This research investigates the effectiveness of Wordwall as a learning media in enhancing English vocabulary mastery among first-grade students at SMAN 1 Biluhu. The background stems from students’ low vocabulary performance and the limited use of educational technology in the classroom. Employing a quasi-experimental design with one-group pre-test and post-test, the study involved 30 students and focused on four vocabulary categories: nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs. The treatment consisted of four meetings using descriptive texts and Wordwall games. Data collection was conducted through vocabulary tests and analyzed using statistical methods including validity, reliability, normality, and paired sample t-test. The findings showed a significant improvement in students’ vocabulary scores after the intervention, with the average score increasing from 49 (pre-test) to 65 (post-test). The hypothesis testing also supported the effectiveness of Wordwall, with a p-value of 0.001 (< 0.05), indicating that the media significantly enhanced vocabulary mastery. Additionally, students demonstrated increased motivation and engagement during the learning process. Despite challenges such as limited internet access and varying student proficiency, the study concludes that Wordwall is a beneficial and interactive tool for vocabulary development. These results are expected to inform future instructional practices and promote the integration of digital tools in language education.

The use of ChatGPT in improving students' academic writing abilities has been extensively studied, but how students perceive the use of ChatGPT affecting the quality of thesis proposals remains unclear becomes the novelty of this research. To address this gap, this study examines final semester students (N=55) utilizing ChatGPT in preparing final assignments across universities in East Indonesia. Employing a mixed-methods research design, this study collected data through surveys and short essays. Descriptive statistics, bivariate correlations, independent t-tests, linear regression, and thematic analysis were used to analyze the data. Findings indicate that i) perceptions of ChatGPT positively correlate with the quality of students' proposals, ii) perceptions of ChatGPT use predict the quality of research proposals, iii) gender does not influence perceptions of ChatGPT use or the quality of students' proposals, and iv) ChatGPT has a positive impact as research reference model, source of ideas, framework reference, translation tool, and paraphraser, but it also has limitations, particularly in providing accurate responses and posing a risk of reducing critical thinking abilities. ChatGPT has proven effective in helping students prepare research proposals, developing ideas, and research frameworks. However, institutions must provide appropriate guidance to prevent the decrease of critical thinking abilities.
