Abstract

This study examines how combining mind mapping with Wordwall.net can improve English vocabulary retention and learning motivation among Physical Education (PE) students. PE learners are often underrepresented in English Language Teaching research. The present approach integrates visual cognitive scaffolding with gamified learning to support active, learner-centered instruction. A mixed-method design involved 40 students from class A3, organized into eight groups. Data were collected through surveys, performance assessments, and semi-structured interviews. Findings showed vocabulary scores improved from pre-test averages of 55–60% to post-test averages of 73–82%, reflecting a 21–23% gain. Motivation indicators were also high: attitudes toward English (87.5%), peer and teacher influence (82.5%), and task value/enjoyment (85%). The combination of mind mapping and Wordwall.net effectively boosts vocabulary and motivation, providing practical strategies for ESP-oriented instruction in non-English programs. Keywords:‎ English learning; mind mapping; motivation; physical education students; vocabulary; wordwall.net

Abstract

Efforts for reforestation in the village are a crucial measure to safeguard the environment and enhance the well-being of the community. The Betungan Village RT 30 RW 05 is currently facing an environmental issue, specifically the insufficient number of trees, which leads to increased temperatures in the area, making it uncomfortable. This situation encourages the implementation of greening actions as a way to invest in the environment for the future. This article aims to explain the implementation and benefits of the greening initiative in Betungan Village, RT 30 RW 05, in supporting sustainable environmental development. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach that involves observing in the field, documenting activities, and directly engaging the community in the tree planting process. The results of this activity indicate that greening efforts have positive effects on the environment, such as improved temperature comfort, increased green space, and heightened public awareness of the importance of preserving nature. In addition to benefiting the environment, this activity also enhances community involvement in supporting environmental programs in the village. The cultivation of green plants and crops that can produce is considered to have the potential for long-term benefits, both environmentally and economically. Therefore, the greening efforts in Betungan Village, RT 30 RW 05, serve not only as a response to the current environmental issues but also act as a sustainable investment for the quality of the environment and the well-being of future generations over the long term.

Abstract

Vocabulary knowledge plays a crucial role in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning, enabling learners to communicate effectively and comprehend spoken and written texts. In many Indonesian higher education settings, traditional vocabulary teaching methods such as rote memorization and written exercises tend to reduce students’ motivation and hinder long-term retention. This study explored the perceptions of Physical Education students at Dehasen University regarding the use of English songs for vocabulary learning, with attention to enjoyment, perceived effectiveness, and challenges. A qualitative design was employed, involving 50 participants. Data were collected through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings showed that 90% of students (45 out of 50) reported high enjoyment, and the same proportion perceived English songs as effective for vocabulary acquisition, mainly due to their motivational value and repeated exposure to meaningful language input. Challenges were also noted: 30% (15 students) struggled with unfamiliar slang, 26% (13 students) found it difficult to maintain focus, 24% (12 students) reported pronunciation issues, and 20% (10 students) were affected by fast tempo. Overall, the results suggest that English songs can serve as an engaging and effective medium for vocabulary development when appropriate materials are selected to minimize comprehension barriers. Integrating songs into EFL instruction may enhance vocabulary retention and listening skills while fostering a positive learning atmosphere. Future research could complement perception-based findings with quantitative measures of vocabulary gains to strengthen the evidence for music-based language learning.

Abstract

This study analyzes the types of swear words and the social values reflected in the dialogue of Venom 3: The Last Dance. The topic is significant because swear words in films do not merely operate as offensive expressions; they may also reveal emotions, interpersonal relations, and the psychological pressure experienced by characters. A descriptive qualitative design was applied. The data consisted of film dialogues containing swear words, collected through documentation by repeatedly watching the movie, checking subtitles, recording relevant utterances, and classifying them using Pinker's typology of swear words and Schwartz's theory of social values. The findings identified 25 utterances containing swear words. Three categories appeared: 14 cathartic swear words, 9 abusive swear words, and 2 emphatic swear words, while dysphemistic and idiomatic swear words were not found. The social-value analysis identified security in 15 data, power in 7 data, conformity in 2 data, and benevolence in 1 data. Security was the most dominant value because most utterances occurred in situations involving threats, danger, panic, and uncertainty. The findings indicate that swearing in the film is primarily a spontaneous pragmatic response to emotional and situational pressure rather than a simple marker of impoliteness. Thus, swear words function as meaningful linguistic signs that express emotion, intensify meaning, and reflect social values within cinematic interaction.

Abstract

Habib Ja’far in Deddy Corbuzier’s podcast Close the Door entitled “Kaget Kalian Habib Ngomong Gini!! Azab Dan SDM Rendah!!”. The objectives of this study are to identify the types of illocutionary speech acts and analyze their communicative functions in the conversation. This study applied a qualitative research method using Searle’s (1976) theory of speech acts as the main theoretical framework. The data were collected through documentation techniques by watching, transcribing, and selecting Habib Ja’far’s utterances from the podcast video uploaded on Deddy Corbuzier’s YouTube channel. The findings reveal that four types of illocutionary speech acts were found in the podcast: assertives, directives, commissives, and expressives, while declarative speech acts were not found. A total of 19 data were analyzed, consisting of 9 assertive speech acts, 8 directive speech acts, 1 commissive speech act, and 1 expressive speech act, with assertive speech acts being the most dominant. This indicates that Habib Ja’far mainly functions as an informant and interpreter who delivers opinions, explanations, and moral perspectives. In terms of function, the most frequent functions identified are expressing personal opinions or viewpoints, providing advice or counsel, and expressing sympathy. The study concludes that Habib Ja’far uses speech acts strategically to educate, persuade, and encourage empathy among listeners, especially regarding humanitarian issues, while reflecting his role as a religious figure who combines moral values, social criticism, and compassion in digital communication. This research contributes to the development of pragmatic studies, particularly in analyzing speech acts in contemporary podcast discourse.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the verbal and non-verbal communication signs represented through the character of Elodie in Damsel (2024) and interpret their meanings and communication functions in relation to her character transformation. This study employed a qualitative descriptive method using Charles Sanders Peirce’s semiotic theory and Mulyana’s (2019) communication function theory. The data were collected through repeated observation of the movie and identification of scenes containing Elodie’s communication signs. The findings reveal 36 data, consisting of 15 verbal and 21 non-verbal communication signs. Verbal communication is predominantly represented through oral communication, including dialogues, emotional expressions, warnings, clarifications, persuasive messages, and confrontational statements, while non-verbal communication is represented through kinesics and eye movements, with kinesics appearing in all non-verbal data. The findings indicate that expressive communication is the dominant communication function in both verbal and non-verbal data, followed by persuasive, informative, and social communication. From Peirce’s semiotic perspective, the communication signs function as representamina that construct meanings related to vulnerability, self-reliance, courage, compassion, and moral maturity. Overall, the findings demonstrate that verbal and non-verbal communication work together to portray Elodie as a resilient character whose transformation progresses from vulnerability and dependence to self-reliance and moral maturity

Abstract

This study examines the English language needs of Physical Education EFL students at Dehasen University, Indonesia, using the English for Specific Purposes (ESP) approach. It fills a gap in ESP research about the specific needs of Physical Education students in Indonesia. A mixed-methods design was used, collecting data from 42 students via questionnaires and from interviews with one English lecturer and one Physical Education lecturer. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and thematic coding. Results show that 95% of students consider English important, especially speaking (76%) and listening (10%) skills for communication in academic practicum settings. The main challenges reported were listening (40%) and speaking (30%), while writing was the lowest priority. Most students are motivated to learn English for work (55%) and communication (31%). Lecturers agree on teaching integrated skills but emphasize oral communication and pronunciation. The findings suggest ESP curricula should focus on sports-related vocabulary and practical communication tasks. Diverse teaching methods are recommended to improve student engagement and language learning. This study offers practical recommendations for syllabus design that meet the academic and professional needs of Physical Education students, emphasizing communicative competence—especially speaking and listening—to prepare them for future careers.
