Abstract

This study was motivated by the low motivation and ability of junior high school students to write fantasy texts, which require a high degree of imagination and narrative skills. Students struggle to express their ideas, develop a plot, and write coherently, while teachers' teaching methods tend to be conventional and lack interactivity. This study aims to analyze the need for gamification in fantasy writing instruction to enhance students' motivation, creativity, and writing skills. The study employs a qualitative descriptive method with a needs analysis approach. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and questionnaires involving 29 students and two Indonesian language teachers. Data analysis was conducted using the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of the study indicate that most students experienced difficulties in developing ideas and had relatively low writing motivation, despite demonstrating a high level of imaginative interest in the world and characters of fantasy. These findings underscore the need for instructional materials that provide structured support and offer engaging learning experiences as a foundation for designing gamification-based fantasy text instructional materials in subsequent development stages.

Abstract

This study is initiated due to the limited review-writing proficiency demonstrated by junior high school students, which remains inconsistent with the critical and evaluative thinking competencies emphasized in Indonesian language learning. This issue is associated with the predominance of less collaborative instructional approaches and the lack of systematic literacy media capable of guiding students in the processes of reflection, idea organization, and critical expression. This study aims to analyze the needs of teachers and students for the development of the GEMAS Literacy Journal based on the Student Teams Achievement Division (STAD) model in learning to write reviews in junior high schools. The study used a qualitative descriptive approach in the needs analysis stage as the initial part of the model development. Data were obtained through interviews with three Indonesian language teachers, questionnaires of 37 eighth-grade students, and observation and documentation of learning. Data were analyzed through systematic reduction, presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate a gap between the demands of writing review competencies and ongoing learning practices, so teachers and students need media that can integrate group collaboration and literacy reflection in a structured manner. The development of the GEMAS Literacy Journal based on STAD is considered relevant to bridge this need because it is able to combine individual responsibility, teamwork, and reflective guidance in the writing process. Thus, this study confirms the urgency of developing collaborative literacy media as a basis for innovation in learning to write reviews in junior high schools.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the reading interests of Children In Conflict with the Law (CICL) and interpret them as indicators of mental resilience using the “I Have”, “I Am”, and “I Can” framework. This study uses a mixed-methods approach to examine the social phenomena experienced by children in conflict with the law, with 84 respondents. Data collection was conducted through structured questionnaires, in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation studies, which were then analyzed using thematic analysis. The results show the “I Have” framework as external support, with high scores across Compliance, Social, and Recognition. The “I Am” framework, as internal strength, includes aspects of Values and Curiosity, which also obtained high scores. Meanwhile, the “I Can” framework, as an interpersonal skills framework, contains aspects of Competition, Engagement, and Challenge, each with varying scores. These findings suggest that literacy programs in LPKA should be designed with a more holistic approach that not only meets CICL’s external needs but also stimulates their intrinsic motivation by selecting reading materials relevant to their cognitive and social development.

Abstract

Teaching advertising writing in vocational high schools continues to face a gap between students’ linguistic knowledge and the expectations of professional practice. Although students often understand textual structures, they frequently struggle to produce persuasive advertising texts that are contextually appropriate and aligned with creative industry standards. This study aims to develop and examine the effectiveness of a Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model grounded in constructivist principles for advertising writing instruction in vocational education. A Research and Development approach using the ADDIE framework was employed and implemented through limited and extensive trials involving intact vocational classes functioning as experimental and comparison groups. Data were collected through writing performance tests, multimodal product assessment, classroom observations, student questionnaires, and qualitative feedback from industry practitioners acting as guest teachers. Quantitative analysis using paired and independent sample statistical tests indicates a significant improvement in students’ advertising writing performance after the model revision, particularly in message clarity, copywriting effectiveness, and coherence between textual and visual elements. Qualitative findings further reveal increased student learning independence, reflected in greater initiative during planning, revision, and decision-making processes. Industry practitioners’ feedback also contributed to aligning student work with professional communication standards. These findings suggest that the revised PjBL model is effective in supporting advertising writing as a multimodal vocational competence and illustrate how constructivist project-based instruction can bridge classroom learning with professional communication practices.

Abstract

Research on phonological awareness has developed rapidly, yet the position of diagnostic assessment in early reading has not been mapped in an integrated manner. This study aims to map research trends in phonological awareness and diagnostic assessment in early reading during the 2014–2024 period. This study employed bibliometric analysis and a systematic literature review. Data were collected by retrieving articles from the Scopus database using Boolean queries. From an initial 103 articles, 40 met the inclusion criteria following the PRISMA 2020 flow diagram. The data were analyzed using VOSviewer to map publication trends, contributions by countries and institutions, author collaboration, and keyword co-occurrence, followed by thematic analysis to identify research focuses, methods, populations, and major findings. The results show that publications have increased since 2020 and that the United States is the dominant contributor. Thematically, the literature is dominated by studies on phonological awareness and phonological processing (35%), followed by decoding and word-reading development (25%), whereas diagnostic assessment and screening account for only 15%. The findings further indicate that phonological awareness is the main predictor of early reading in 20 articles, decoding contributes to word-reading development in 11 articles, and only 6 articles report diagnostic assessment instruments for screening. This study confirms that stronger integration between phonological awareness and diagnostic assessment is needed to support the early detection of reading difficulties. Abstrak Penelitian mengenai kesadaran fonologis berkembang pesat, tetapi posisi asesmen diagnostik dalam membaca awal belum dipetakan secara terintegrasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan memetakan tren penelitian kesadaran fonologis dan asesmen diagnostik dalam membaca awal pada periode 2014–2024. Penelitian ini menggunakan analisis bibliometrik dan tinjauan pustaka sistematis. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui penelusuran artikel pada basis data Scopus menggunakan kueri Boolean. Dari 103 artikel awal, diperoleh 40 artikel yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi berdasarkan alur PRISMA 2020. Data dianalisis menggunakan VOSviewer untuk memetakan tren publikasi, kontribusi negara dan institusi, kolaborasi penulis, serta ko-kemunculan kata kunci, kemudian dilanjutkan dengan analisis tematik untuk mengidentifikasi fokus penelitian, metode, populasi, dan temuan utama. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa publikasi meningkat sejak 2020 dan didominasi oleh Amerika Serikat. Secara tematik, penelitian didominasi oleh kesadaran dan pemrosesan fonologis (35%) serta decoding dan perkembangan membaca kata (25%), sedangkan asesmen dan skrining diagnostik hanya menempati 15%. Temuan lain menunjukkan bahwa kesadaran fonologis menjadi prediktor utama membaca awal pada 20 artikel, decoding memperkuat perkembangan membaca kata pada 11 artikel, dan instrumen asesmen diagnostik untuk skrining masih terbatas pada 6 artikel. Penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa integrasi antara kesadaran fonologis dan asesmen diagnostik masih perlu diperkuat untuk mendukung deteksi dini kesulitan membaca.
