Abstract

This study examines the construction of gender ideology in English textbooks published by the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture in 2022. As official pedagogical documents, the textbooks play a strategic role in shaping students' gender understanding. This study aimed to identify and analyze gender representations in text and images to uncover the gender ideologies underlying the materials' construction. To answer the research questions, high school textbooks for grades X, XI, and XII served as data sources. Using a qualitative design with documentation and discourse analysis techniques, this study classified verbal and visual excerpts into ideological frameworks through a multimodal discourse analysis approach. The findings revealed three main ideologies: egalitarian, intensive parenting, and moderate traditional. Egalitarian ideology is reflected in the representation of women and men as professional, high-achieving, resilient, and creative subjects; intensive parenting is evident through the collaborative division of caregiving roles, while moderate traditional ideology is evident in the continued dominance of women in certain domestic tasks. These three ideologies indicate a hybrid gender discourse that reflects the negotiation between progressive and traditional values in government-published textbooks. Practically, these findings encourage the need for gender sensitivity audits in textbook development and critical pedagogy in the classroom. Theoretically, this research contributes to strengthening the understanding that gender representation in educational media is dynamic, layered, and reflects broader social changes in the context of national education.

Abstract

Scenario-based learning (SBL) is a teaching method that uses real-life simulations to help students develop practical skills and apply their knowledge in relevant and realistic contexts. This study aims to explore the impact of implementing scenario-based learning in English for Nursing, with a focus on improving students’ communication skills. The research used a qualitative approach, conducting in-depth interviews with 41 students from Akper Kesdam I/Bukit Barisan Padang who had participated in scenario-based learning. Data were collected to identify changes in students’ confidence, language anxiety, and their ability to apply medical communication in real-world situations. The findings indicate that scenario-based learning significantly improved students’ confidence in using English for communication, reduced language anxiety, and deepened their understanding of the importance of clear communication in emergencies. The scenarios provided practical experience that helped students bridge theory with real-life applications, better preparing them for urgent medical situations. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that integrating scenario-based learning into English for Nursing is effective in preparing nursing students to address communication challenges in medical settings and in improving patient care quality.
