Pelatihan difokuskan pada penguatan pemahaman konseptual tentang PBL dan PjBL, sedangkan pendampingan diarahkan pada penyusunan Rencana Pelaksanaan Pembelajaran (RPP) serta praktik implementasi di kelas. Evaluasi dilakukan untuk mengukur efektivitas program melalui peningkatan pemahan guru terhadap materi yang diberikan, produk yang dihasilkan, dan tindakan nyata dikelas.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate how undergraduate students exercise their critical thinking skills through the phrasing and sentence structure of their analytical writing. This research investigates how students translate their critical faculties into the linguistic choices and rhetorical techniques employed in their written analytical texts. In particular, it has investigated how students engage with critical argument and logic through the phrasing, sentence structure, and text structuring of their writing, as well as the linguistic and rhetorical resources used to communicate processes and outcomes of their thinking. This set of research questions is framed to allow the investigation into the relationship between critical thinking and written expression, whereby it hopes to gain insight into the way students can bridge such a gap in academic writing. The findings will enable pedagogical approaches toward the empowerment of students for better clarity and persuasiveness in communicating their ideas and reasoning.

Abstract

Mastering grammar is essential for English learners, particularly the accurate placement of modifiers, which is often overlooked in academic writing. This research investigates the types of misplaced modifiers found in the teaching practice blog posts written by SEA Teacher participants. Misplaced modifiers can disrupt clarity and change the intended meaning of a sentence, yet they are often overlooked in academic writing instruction. Referring to Fowler and Aaron’s (2012) classification, this research aims to identify and analyze seven types of misplaced modifiers. Using a descriptive qualitative method, the researcher analyzed 30 narrative blog posts by SEA Teacher participants. The data were collected by identifying sentences that contained misplaced modifiers, then categorizing them based on their types. The analysis reveals that the most frequently occurring type is misplaced phrases and clauses (36.4%), followed by incorrect adverb placement (21.2%). These two types are dominant because they involve longer, more complex sentence structures where the intended meaning is often lost when modifiers are placed too far from the words they describe. Less frequent errors include squinting modifiers, limiting modifiers, and the incorrect order of adjectives. These findings indicate the need for more explicit grammar instruction to help pre-service teachers improve their syntactic accuracy in academic and reflective writing.

Abstract

This study focuses on analyzing the illocutionary acts present in Retno Marsudi’s speech during the general debate of the 78th session of the United Nations General Assembly. This study aims to describe the types of illocutionary acts employed, discerning the most and least frequent types as well as their implications. The data were analyzed by the descriptive qualitative method, and collected by finding out the video, watching the video, transcribing the speech video, and then identifying the data that were related to the theory. The writers used Searle’s theory for the types of illocutionary acts, which categorizes illocutionary acts into five types: representative, directive, commissive, expressive, and declarative. The findings from the study revealed that there are a total of 87 data points found in the speech, with directive acts being the most dominant with a total of 37 (42,5%), followed by representative at 27 (31%), commissive at 13 (15%), declarative at 6 (6,9%), and expressive being the least dominant at 4 (4,6%). The findings indicate that directive acts are primarily used to convey urgent messages and prompt action, while expressive acts are the least dominant, reflecting Retno Marsudi’s emphasis on advocating for action rather than expressing personal emotions or attitudes

Abstract

Bullying merupakan tindakan kekerasan terhadap fisik maupun mental yang dilakukan dengan menyalahgunakan kekuatan dari yang lebih kuat ke yang lemah. Bullying membawa dampak besar terhadap korban yang menyebabkan si korban mengalami trauma, stress, melukai diri sendiri dan tak jarang si korban pada akhirnya bunuh diri karena merasa malu dan dikucilkan oleh lingkungan. Bentuk-bentuk bullying berupa kekerasan fisik maupun verbal, dan cyber bullying yang kerap kali terjadi. Secara tak sadar, sering kita lihat dan dengar physical bullying dan verbal bullying yang dilakukan oleh siswa disekolah dasar. Memukul, menendang, mencakar, menggigit dan aktifitas menyakiti fisik lainnya merupakan bentuk dari perundungan fisik yang dilakukan anak sekolah dasar. Sedangkan untuk verbal bullying, acap kali anak-anak mengolok-olok temannya dengan memanggil nama anak tersebut maupun nama orang tuanya, mencela, berkata kasar merupakan sebagian contoh dari verbal bullying. Sayangnya, kejadian seperti contoh diatas dianggap wajar sebagai kenakalan anak-anak. Berangkat dari fenomena ini, tim pengabdian masyarakat memberikan solusi dengan mengadakan pelatihan untuk meningkatkan kompetensi guru dalam menghadapi dan mengatasi bullying yang terjadi disekolah dengan strategi yang tepat. Solusi dilakukan dengan menggunakan 2 cara, yakni meningkatkan peran guru sebagai komunikator yang baik dengan siswa, sebagai pemberi nasehat, dan pembimbing dalam bersikap dan bertingkah laku bagi siswa. Yang kedua adalah dengan melaksanakan strategi dengan melakukan pembiasaan baik dikelas yang bersifat relijius, membentuk karakter dan kepribadian siswa, dan memberikan art therapy bagi siswa sebagai upaya untuk mengatasi trauma bullying. Dengan pelatihan ini, guru menjadi lebih ‘dewasa’ dan bijak dalam menyikapi bullying, mampu menerapkan solusi dan strategi yang tepat dalam menghadapi bullying dan meminimalisir dampaknya terhadap korban bully
