Abstract

Myopia is a condition in which distant objects cannot be clearly displayed on the retina by the optical system of the eye, because the incoming light is refracted in front of the retina or yellow spot. Along with genetic factors, another important aspect that affect myopia is lifestyle. When a pandemic strikes, it alters people's behavior. Outdoor activities have decreased significantly, while the use of gadgets has increased as a result of youngsters learning online, which needs the use of gadgets. This study aims to determine the increase in the incidence of myopia in children due the online learning process. The type of research conducted is in the form of literature review. Searches for data that meets literature reviews that match the topic are conducted online. Online searches conducted through scientific journal sites have a diverse and quality database, namely PubMed, Schocar, and Libgen published in the last 6 years (2015-2021). Researchers found 8 journals using keywords relevant to the study. The findings highlight that the use of smartphones can cause DED, myopia and blurred vision. Due the pandemic Covid-19 situation that occur today requires children to take part in online learning programs from home via smartphone screens. Indirectly, short distance activities and lack of exposure to natural sunlight increase asthenopia conditions and increase myopia cases for children. If not addressed early on, these risks becoming an explosion of myopia cases, while the end of the COVID-19 pandemic is still unknown. Therefore, myopia preventive measures are required during pandemic outbreaks that are relevant and effective.

Abstract

The use of authentic materials has long been recognized as a valuable approach in language teaching and learning. This method not only aids in the development of learners' language skills but also helps them apply these skills to real-world situations, thereby enhancing their overall communicative competence. Incorporating authentic texts and tasks fosters an engaging and motivating learning environment, allowing learners to connect with the language in a meaningful way and improve both their autonomy and communicative ability. Moreover, the design of authentic materials can bridge the gap between theory and practice in language education by providing learners with motivating and relevant tasks that align with real-life applications, thereby enriching their overall learning experience. The present study aims to examine the benefits and practical considerations of using authentic materials to enhance language learning. This study is conducted at a junior high school in Central Java, Indonesia, which has been using authentic materials in English Learning. The study reveals that the teacher and the students feel that authentic material is helpful to be applied in classroom learning.

Abstract

This research examines the effectiveness of AI-based speech recognition technology in fostering English pronunciation skills among students. The study emphasizes the importance of pronunciation proficiency as a cornerstone of language learning and its impact on overall communication effectiveness. A quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group methodology was employed. The participants were 58 third-year Accounting Diploma students from State Polytechnic of Malang, Indonesia. They were divided into two groups: an experimental class utilizing the Google Read Along application and a control class receiving conventional teaching methods. The results demonstrate a significant improvement in pronunciation skills within the experimental group. These students achieved an average N-Gain score of 0.7646, categorized as "high," compared to the control group's average score of 0.6564, classified as "moderate." Furthermore, a t-test analysis revealed a statistically significant difference between the two groups, with a p-value (2-tailed) of 0.000. These findings strongly suggest that AI-based speech recognition technology offers a more effective approach to enhancing English pronunciation compared to conventional methods. This research paves the way for integrating this technology into language learning curriculums. The potential for significant positive impacts on student pronunciation skills is promising and warrants further exploration in future research endeavors.

Abstract

This research aims to assess the effectiveness of English language training in improving the competitiveness of MSMEs, with a case study on My Zahro Collection, an MSME in the field of Muslim fashion. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method in the form of community service. Data was collected through observation, interviews, questionnaires, as well as pre-test and post-test to measure the improvement of participants' skills after the training. The training involved four main sessions, namely business communication in English, international business transactions, product description creation, and digital marketing strategies. The results showed that before the training, the majority of My Zahro Collection employees had limitations in business vocabulary (65% low category), speaking ability (70% low category), and understanding of digital marketing strategies (75% low category). After the training, there were significant improvements in each skill aspect, with understanding of digital marketing strategies increasing by 55%, ability to write product descriptions by 50%, speaking ability by 45%, and understanding of business vocabulary by 40%. In addition, 90% of participants felt more confident in communicating with international customers. This research confirms that practice-based English language training is effective in improving MSMEs' business communication skills. Hence, similar training programs need to be developed sustainably to support MSMEs in improving their global competitiveness.

Abstract

In the continuously evolving digital era, mastering English in a professional context has become a primary necessity, especially for accounting students who are required to understand technical terminology and effectively communicate financial information. This research aims to explore the effectiveness of artificial intelligence tools in enhancing the teaching of English for Accounting, specifically within the framework of English for Specific Purposes education. Utilizing a quasi-experimental design, the study incorporates a pretest and posttest control group, comprising two distinct groups of accounting students. One group receives conventional instruction, while the other benefits from AI-enhanced teaching methods. The findings suggest that the group that participated in the experiment showed notable enhancements in their knowledge of technical terms, ability to comprehend financial documents, and proficiency in both writing and communication related to accounting when compared to the group that did not participate. Additionally, the use of AI proved to help reduce cognitive load and enhance learning motivation among students. These findings imply the need for systematic integration of artificial intelligence technology into the ESP curriculum, as well as training for instructors to optimize its use. Thus, AI technology plays not only a supportive role but also serves as an adaptive learning strategy relevant to current industry needs.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to determine the relationship between debt policy and tobacco excise tax rates with stock prices. Data sources were obtained from data published on the Indonesia Stock Exchange and company websites. This research uses multiple regression analysis tools. The research found that first, the debt policy variable has a positive effect on the stock price of tobacco company Gudang Garam (GGRM), while for Sampoerna Company, the debt decision contributes negatively to the stock price. Second, the excise tax rate variable has a negative impact on tobacco stock prices. Third, debt policy and excise tax rates simultaneously affect tobacco stock prices. The implications of these findings indicate that company managers must carefully design debt policies to create optimal capital structure, as the effects of debt decisions can vary between companies. Government policies related to excise tax rates have a direct impact on stock market performance in the tobacco industry, meaning that investors and stakeholders must consider regulatory dynamics as an important factor in investment decision-making. The results of this research provide evidence that excise tax rate adjustments not only affect state revenues but also affect the stability and valuation of companies related to the tobacco industry in the capital market.
