Abstract

This study explores the role of family support in shaping an individual's identity and how such support influences personal success, as depicted in the film The Blind Side (2009). It focuses on how the emotional, social, and material support provided by the Tuohy family positively impacted Michael Oher’s psychological development, self-confidence, and academic achievement. Using a qualitative descriptive design, the study analyzed data in the form of dialogues, scenes, and storylines relevant to the research focus. Data collection involved repeatedly watching the film and noting significant scenes or dialogues, which were then analyzed using the Miles Huberman (1994) qualitative data analysis model, including data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion/verification. The results indicate that consistent family support was crucial in shaping Michael Oher’s identity, self-confidence, and motivation. The emotional warmth, acceptance, and structured guidance from the Tuohy family enabled Michael to overcome past trauma and social barriers, enhancing his academic performance, athletic abilities, and self-confidence. This research contributes by demonstrating how media portrayals, such as The Blind Side, can provide insights into the psychological and social dynamics of identity formation, offering valuable perspectives for educators, counselors, and researchers studying the impact of family support on adolescent development.

Abstract

This study explores students’ perspectives on the integration of TikTok storytelling in Project-Based Learning (PjBL) classrooms. The purpose of the research is to investigate how the use of TikTok as a digital storytelling platform influences students’ engagement, learning experiences, and perceived learning outcomes. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, involving students who participated in project-based activities that required them to create and share storytelling videos using TikTok. Data were collected through questionnaires, classroom observations, and interviews, and were analyzed thematically. The findings indicate that the integration of TikTok storytelling in PBL promotes positive student engagement, enhances creativity, and increases motivation in the learning process. Students perceived improvements in their communication skills, particularly in speaking and storytelling abilities, as well as greater confidence in expressing ideas. Additionally, the platform’s accessibility and multimedia features supported collaborative learning and learning autonomy. However, some challenges were identified, including technical limitations and the need for clear instructional guidance. Overall, the study concludes that TikTok storytelling can serve as an effective and innovative learning medium when integrated thoughtfully into Project-Based Learning classrooms, contributing to meaningful and student-centered learning experiences.
