Abstract

This study investigates the impact of integrating innovative gestures into language instruction at Universitas Muhammadiyah Gresik (UMG) and Universitas Muhammadiyah Gorontalo (UMGO). The primary objective was to assess how various types of gestures, including interactive digital boards, emotional expression, dynamic movement sequences, gamified approaches, and multimodal feedback gestures, influence student engagement, comprehension, and retention. Through observational data and semi-structured interviews with language lecturers, the study provides comprehensive insights into the efficacy of gesture-based teaching methods. The results reveal that the use of gestures significantly enhances the visibility and impact of corrective feedback, making linguistic errors more noticeable and facilitating better understanding and retention compared to traditional verbal feedback methods. Observational data indicate that students are more actively involved in discussions and activities when gestures are used, leading to a more dynamic and interactive classroom environment. This increased engagement highlights the potential of gestures to improve comprehension and cognitive processing in language learning. Semi-structured interviews with lecturers further emphasize the perceived benefits of gestures, such as enhanced engagement, improved comprehension, and better retention of language skills. However, challenges including technological limitations, the need for professional development, and time constraints were also identified. To address these challenges, educators recommended strategies like gradual implementation of gestures, soliciting student feedback, and combining gestures with other multimedia resources. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that integrating gestures into language instruction can significantly enhance learning outcomes by making lessons more engaging and effective. Future research should focus on long-term impacts and the development of training programs to support educators in adopting gesture-based teaching methods.

Abstract

This study explores the representation of traumatic experiences in H.G. Wells' novel The Island of Doctor Moreau. Traumatic experiences are unpredictable, unpreventable situations that overwhelm victims and disrupt their ability to cope. Literature can provide insights into the range of responses to such overwhelming experiences as a reflection of human existence. The objective of this research is to increase awareness and understanding of trauma and mental illness through the analysis of literary depictions. Using a qualitative research approach, the study examines the traumatic experiences encountered by the protagonist, Edward Prendick, in the novel. The analysis categorizes Prendick's traumatic experiences into three main themes: a) being stranded, drifting away, and lost; b) witnessing death and seeing dead bodies; and c) meeting scary creatures, being attacked, and being terrorized. The findings reveal how the novel portrays the psychological and emotional impact of trauma on the protagonist, highlighting the challenges faced by victims of overwhelming and life-threatening situations. By analyzing the literary representation of trauma, this study aims to foster greater empathy and understanding for those affected by traumatic experiences and mental health issues. The in-depth qualitative analysis of the narrative techniques and thematic elements in the novel contributes to the literature on the literary depiction of trauma and its implications for raising awareness and promoting mental health.Keywords: Traumatic experiences, psychology, novel

Abstract

Sekarang ini, kebutuhan akan pariwisata sudah menjadi kebutuhan primer. Pergi ke tempat yang berbeda, merasakan pengalaman yang berbeda, makan makanan eksotis adalah salah satu hal yang diharapkan orang ketika mendengar kata pariwisata. Sayangnya, tidak semua tempat wisata menyediakan informasi yang dapat diakses dengan mudah oleh masyarakat yang berminat untuk mengunjunginya. Untuk mengakomodir pertumbuhan wisatawan yang cepat, digunakan beberapa strategi promosi, salah satunya dengan menggunakan brosur. Untuk memastikan bahwa brosur digunakan secara efektif, bahasa yang digunakan dalam brosur harus benar terutama dalam brosur dwibahasa. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bahasa yang digunakan dalam brosur pariwisata dwibahasa yang digunakan sebagai alat promosi oleh Dinas Pemuda Olahraga dan Pariwisata Kabupaten Gorontalo. Metode yang digunakan adalah penelitian kualitatif deskriptif. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui isi brosur yang terdiri dari beberapa objek wisata di Kabupaten Gorontalo seperti; Menara Pakaya, Pantai Talua’a, Bantayo Poboide, Festival Budaya Gorontalo, Museum Iluta, Resor Pentadio, Desa Wisata Religi Bubohu, Diving Center Pantai Itoduti, dan sebagainya. Kemudian dianalisis berdasarkan metode error translation. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat 4 macam kesalahan yang terdapat pada brosur wisata bilingual yang diterbitkan oleh Disporapar Kabupaten Gorontalo yaitu kesalahan penghilangan, kesalahan penambahan, kesalahan pembentukan dan kesalahan penempatan. Oleh karena itu, penggunaan teori appraisal disarankan untuk meningkatkan kualitas terjemahan pada brosur pariwisata dwibahasa di Kabupaten Gorontalo yang selanjutnya akan berdampak pada peningkatan wisatawan mancanegara yang berkunjung ke Gorontalo. Kata Kunci : Brosur, Terjemahan, Teori Appraisal
