Abstract

This study aimed to analyze grammatical errors made by eighth-grade students in writing descriptive texts, with a particular focus on the use of the simple present tense. The research employed a descriptive qualitative design. The participants were students of SMP Negeri 2 Kualuh Leidong, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a writing test in which students were required to compose a descriptive text in English. The students’ written works were analyzed using surface strategy taxonomy, which classifies errors into omission, addition, misformation, and misordering. The analysis procedure involved identifying errors, categorizing them into the four types, and interpreting the results to determine dominant error patterns. The findings revealed that students produced various grammatical errors, with misformation and omission appearing as the most frequent types. These errors mainly occurred in subject–verb agreement, verb forms, and the use of auxiliary verbs in the simple present tense. The results indicate that students still have limited mastery of basic grammatical structures in descriptive writing. This study suggests that teachers should provide more focused grammar instruction and writing practice to help students reduce errors and improve their ability to write descriptive texts accurately.

Abstract

This study analyzes the symbols in the drama script Diamonds and Toads by Charles Perrault and examines their function in building moral values. A descriptive qualitative method was applied, with data collected from the drama script adapted from Perrault's fairy tale. The analysis was conducted using Miles and Huberman's interactive model (data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing) combined with Roland Barthes' semiotic theory, which distinguishes denotation (literal meaning) and connotation (symbolic meaning). The findings reveal three categories of symbols: object symbols (40.91%), character symbols (31.82%), and place/event symbols (27.27%). Object symbols such as roses, pearls, and diamonds connote goodness and virtue, while vipers and toads connote evil and vice. Character symbols position the younger daughter as a symbol of humility and the elder daughter as a symbol of arrogance. Place symbols such as the fountain represent moral testing, the forest symbolizes exile and protection, and the palace represents reward. The symbols function through binary oppositions such as flowers versus snakes, humility versus pride, service versus selfishness, to convey the central moral message that good deeds produce good results and evil deeds produce evil results. The symbols serve four functions: providing concrete representations of abstract moral concepts, creating emotional resonance, serving as memory aids, and establishing a clear moral structure. This study contributes to literary studies, particularly in semiotics and symbol analysis in drama scripts, and offers practical benefits for educators and students in understanding moral values in literary works.

Abstract

The aim of this research is to determine the effect of using English Stories With Level application on students' vocabulary mastery in the seventh grade of SMP Negeri 4 Pematangsiantar in 2024/2025 academic year. The research aimed to determine the effect of using the English Stories With Level Application as a media for learning vocabulary at seventh grade of SMP Negeri 4 Pematangsiantar. The objective of the study was to find out whether this application could significantly improve students' vocabulary mastery. The research utilized a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design, which included both a pre-test and post-test. The population consisted of 300 students, from which two classes were selected via cluster random sampling. The experimental group received instruction using English Stories with Level Application, while the control group used conventional media (handbook). Data collection involved administering pre-tests and post-tests to both the experimental and control groups. The descriptive analysis revealed that the mean post-test score for the experimental group was 73.00, while the control group scored 66.50. A paired-sample t-test confirmed a statistically significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores of the experimental group, with a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), leading to the acceptance of the alternative hypothesis (Ha). This suggested that the use of this application as a media for vocabulary learning was more effective than traditional methods. In conclusion, the research demonstrated that English Stories with Level Application significantly enhanced vocabulary acquisition among seventh grade students.

Abstract

The objectives of this research are: (1) To find out the types of figurative language used in Bruno Mars’ song album. (2) To find out the most dominant type of figurative language used in Bruno Mars’ song album. The design of this research is descriptive qualitative research. The type of data for this research is Bruno Mars' songs from the album 24K Magic, namely 24K Magic, That's What I Like, Calling All My Lovelies, Chunky, Versace on the Floor, Finesse, Perm, Straight Up & Down, Too Good to Say Goodbye. In this research, the researchers used Keraf's theory. From the analysis, the results of this research show that the total data of types of figurative language used in the album 24K Magic by Bruno Mars is 32 (100%). The most dominant figurative language style is Eponym. There are 11 (34%) Eponym in the song lyrics, 6 (19%) total personification data, 10 (31%) total metaphor data, and 5 (16%) similes in the song lyrics. The presence of figurative language in songs makes the conveyed message more interesting for the listeners. The author suggests that other researchers continue to analyze figurative language as it can help readers understand the meaning contained in the song lyrics. Another suggestion is for researchers who want to analyze figurative language in song lyrics to use other objects such as novels, films, poetry, etc.

Abstract

This systematic literature review aims to examine how previous studies have investigated learners’ engagement with digital literature in EFL contexts from a multimodal perspective. Existing research has widely discussed digital storytelling, digital multimodal composing, multimodal literacy, and educational technology in English language learning; however, the relationship between digital literature, learner engagement, and multimodal meaning-making remains fragmented. To address this gap, this study reviewed 12 preliminary articles published between 2016 and 2026 from relevant international and Indonesian academic sources, using a systematic review procedure informed by PRISMA 2020 and Zawacki-Richter et al.’s approach to educational systematic reviews. The analysis focused on research demographics, forms of digital literature, dimensions of learner engagement, multimodal elements, benefits, challenges, and research gaps. The findings show that digital storytelling and digital multimodal composing dominate the literature, while other digital literary forms such as interactive fiction, e-poetry, hypertext narratives, fanfiction, and social media-based literature remain underexplored. The review contributes by proposing that EFL learners’ engagement with digital literature should be understood as behavioral, emotional, cognitive, and multimodal participation in meaning-making

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the function of setting in developing dramatic tension in D. M. Larson's The Waiting Room. The study uses a qualitative descriptive method because the data are presented in the form of dialogues and stage directions found in the drama script. The analysis focuses on how the setting, including the waiting room itself and the changing atmosphere of the ceiling, contributes to the development of dramatic tension throughout the play. The data were collected by reading the script carefully, identifying descriptions related to setting, and interpreting their relationship with the characters' emotions and the progression of the story. The findings show that the setting in The Waiting Room is not only used as the physical background of the story but also functions as an active dramatic element. The mysterious waiting room creates uncertainty from the beginning of the play, while the changing light of the ceiling reflects the emotional condition of the characters and increases the dramatic tension. The setting also supports the gradual revelation of the characters' memories and leads the audience toward the climax of the story. Therefore, the study concludes that setting has an important role in building suspense, creating emotional atmosphere, and strengthening the overall dramatic effect of the play.
