Abstract

This study aims to determine and analyze the role of interpersonal communication between teachers and students in fostering awareness of gadget use at SD Negeri 2 Perumnas Way Kandis. Interpersonal communication is considered a key factor in shaping student behavior, particularly regarding the wise use of technology in the school environment. Teachers, as key figures in the school environment, have a significant responsibility in conveying values ​​and information regarding the positive and negative impacts of gadget use. The method used was a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data collection techniques included observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The informants in this study consisted of 15 individuals, including teachers, sixth-grade students, and parents, selected using purposive sampling and snowball sampling techniques. Data validity was tested through source triangulation to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the information. The results showed that teachers' interpersonal communication, which encompasses openness, empathy, support, equality, and a positive attitude, proved effective in raising students' awareness regarding gadget use. Teachers who are able to create two-way communication, provide open dialogue, and demonstrate empathy, are able to foster students' understanding and wise attitudes regarding gadget use. Furthermore, collaboration between teachers and parents also strengthens the implementation of gadget use rules both at school and at home. Consistent and educational communication makes students more aware of the time, content, and purpose of gadget use. This research confirms that good interpersonal communication between teachers and students is a crucial foundation for character education and digital literacy from an early age.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the phenomenon of oligarchy in Indonesian politics, focusing on how political power is concentrated in the hands of economic elites and the resulting implications for democratic governance. It specifically explores the role of political parties and government policy under President Jokowi in reinforcing oligarchic structures. A descriptive qualitative method with a literature review approach is employed in this study. Data is gathered from academic publications, news reports, books, and legal documents to critically assess the patterns and impact of oligarchic dominance in Indonesia’s political system. Political parties in Indonesia often operate as tools for oligarchs to maintain their power and influence. Although President Joko Widodo was initially viewed as a reformist leader, his administration has become increasingly aligned with oligarchic interests. Legislative changes, including the revision of the Corruption Eradication Commission Law (KPK Law), the enactment of the Omnibus Law on Job Creation, and the amendments to the Criminal Code (KUHP), have provided legal protection and advantages to political and economic elites. To reduce the influence of oligarchy in politics and ensure that power genuinely lies with the people, Indonesia must adopt several reform strategies. These include strengthening democratic institutions, enhancing transparency in political financing, promoting accountability in governance, and increasing meaningful public participation. The future of democracy in Indonesia will depend on the country’s ability to restrain oligarchic power and uphold democratic values rooted in public accountability and civic engagement.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the social reality of teenagers who are fans of Korean popular culture, particularly those involved in the Moments of Alwaysness (MOA) fandom community in Bandar Lampung. Using a qualitative approach and a case study method, the research focuses on how communication practices, group dynamics, and identity construction emerge within this fandom. The study employs five theoretical frameworks: social reality theory, representation theory, social identity theory, interpersonal communication theory, and group communication theory. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation of social media interactions. The findings reveal that teenagers use K‑Pop fandom not only as a space for entertainment but also as a medium for identity exploration, social bonding, and self-expression, both online and offline. The community serves as a cultural and social platform where members internalize values, norms, and collective meanings, shaping a shared reality within the local context. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of youth behavior in the digital era and highlights how global popular culture influences local social dynamics among adolescents.

Abstract

Volunteers who assist persons with disabilities must adapt their communication because spoken messages are not always sufficient. This study examines the process of nonverbal communication used by volunteers at Sahabat Difabel Lampung. The study employed a qualitative case-study approach within a constructivist paradigm. Data were collected through participant observation on two occasions, semi-structured interviews with nine informants, and document review. The informants consisted of one key informant, seven volunteer informants, and one supporting informant. Data were analyzed through reduction, display, and conclusion drawing, while source and technique triangulation were used to assess credibility. The findings show that volunteers begin by gaining attention and creating comfort through friendly facial expressions, eye contact, a calm approach, and appropriate physical distance. They then deliver messages through gestures, supportive touch, vocal cues, body position, sign language, writing, and digital media. Volunteers observe participants' responses and adapt the message to the individual and the situation. Instructions may be shortened, demonstrated, repeated, or transferred to a visual channel. When meaning remains unclear, volunteers check it again or seek assistance from another volunteer. These actions are interconnected rather than fixed in a linear sequence. Nonverbal communication therefore supports message delivery, mutual understanding, and the relationship between volunteers and persons with disabilities.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan bagaimana komunikasi sekolah berkontribusi dalam meningkatkan partisipasi siswa dalam kegiatan ekstrakurikuler di SMK Palapa Bandar Lampung. Penelitian ini dimotivasi oleh tingkat partisipasi siswa yang relatif rendah meskipun sekolah telah menerapkan beberapa strategi komunikasi, termasuk Program Pengenalan Lingkungan Sekolah (MPLS), orientasi anggota baru, penilaian ekstrakurikuler, dan penggunaan media sosial. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan studi kasus kualitatif. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi non-partisipan, dan dokumentasi, dan dianalisis menggunakan model analisis data kualitatif interaktif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa komunikasi sekolah diimplementasikan melalui empat strategi utama: sosialisasi selama Program Pengenalan Lingkungan Sekolah (MPLS), orientasi anggota baru, penilaian ekstrakurikuler sebagai bentuk apresiasi, dan pemanfaatan media sosial untuk menyebarluaskan informasi. Selain itu, komunikasi interpersonal antara Wakil Kepala Sekolah Bidang Kemahasiswaan, pembimbing ekstrakurikuler, pelatih, anggota komite siswa, dan siswa memperkuat pemahaman, motivasi, dan kepercayaan siswa, yang mendorong partisipasi yang lebih besar dalam kegiatan ekstrakurikuler. Studi ini menyimpulkan bahwa komunikasi sekolah berkelanjutan yang mengintegrasikan komunikasi formal, komunikasi interpersonal, dan media sosial memainkan peran penting dalam meningkatkan partisipasi siswa dalam kegiatan ekstrakurikuler di SMK Palapa Bandar Lampung.

Abstract

Komunikasi antara pelatih dan atlet merupakan unsur fundamental dalam pembinaan prestasi olahraga karena tidak hanya berfungsi menyampaikan instruksi teknis, tetapi juga membentuk hubungan interpersonal yang memengaruhi kepercayaan, motivasi, dan keharmonisan relasi kerja dalam jangka panjang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memahami bagaimana komunikasi pelatih dan atlet membangun hubungan harmonis pada pembinaan prestasi di Taekwondo Heliandri Club (THC) Lampung. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan strategi studi kasus. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi, wawancara mendalam, dan dokumentasi terhadap tujuh informan ayang dipilih secara purposive, terdiri atas dua pelatih, dua atlet, dua orang tua atlet, dan satu alumni klub, kemudian dianalisis secara tematik melalui tahapan reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan, dengan keabsahan data diperiksa melalui triangulasi sumber dan teknik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa hubungan harmonis pelatih-atlet dibangun melalui lima dimensi komunikasi yang saling berkaitan, yaitu proses komunikasi, bentuk komunikasi (interpersonal dan kelompok), fungsi komunikasi, umpan balik komunikasi, dan pola adaptasi komunikasi, yang beroperasi pada level individual, relasional, dan kolektif, serta diperkuat oleh keterlibatan orang tua dan alumni sebagai sistem pendukung eksternal. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa hubungan harmonis antara pelatih dan atlet tidak terbentuk dari satu bentuk komunikasi tunggal, melainkan dari proses komunikasi yang adaptif, terbuka, suportif, evaluatif, dan berkelanjutan, sejalan dengan Teori Tindakan Sosial dan Teori Interaksi Simbolik.
