Abstract

This classroom action research (CAR) examines the efficacy of Canva-based learning media in enhancing secondary students’ procedural writing skills. Addressing the common challenges of structuring logical sequences and articulating details in procedural texts, the study involved 30 tenth-grade students at an Indonesian public high school, selected through purposive sampling due to persistent difficulties in writing tasks. Over two iterative cycles, Canva’s visual design tools—templates, icons, and multimedia elements—were integrated into instructional strategies to scaffold students’ understanding of procedural text components (goal, materials, steps). Data were triangulated through pre- and post-tests, observational checklists, and student questionnaires, analyzed quantitatively via descriptive statistics and qualitatively through thematic coding. Results demonstrated significant progress: mean scores rose from 62.3 (pre-test) to 82.4 (Cycle 2), with pass rates (≥65) surging from 30% to 90%. Observational data revealed increased engagement, with active participation climbing from 65% (Cycle 1) to 90% (Cycle 2), while questionnaires indicated 90% of students credited Canva for improved idea organization. The intervention’s success aligns with Mayer’s Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning, as dual-coding visual-textual stimuli reduced cognitive load and reinforced retention. Additionally, collaborative features in Canva fostered peer feedback, aligning with Vygotsky’s social constructivism. Challenges in Cycle 1, such as incoherent transitions, were remediated in Cycle 2 through focused editing exercises and animated simulations. The study underscores Canva’s potential as a pedagogical tool for procedural writing, emphasizing its accessibility and capacity to bridge creativity with structured learning. Recommendations include teacher training in digital design tools and further research on Canva’s applicability across diverse text genres and educational contexts.

Abstract

Kegiatan pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kualitas lingkungan belajar yang positif dan inklusif di Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Swasta (MIS) Syababul Qorib melalui pendekatan humor sebagai strategi pedagogis. Berangkat dari permasalahan rendahnya partisipasi siswa, kurangnya variasi metode pembelajaran guru, serta belum optimalnya praktik inklusi, program ini melibatkan 15 guru dan 30 siswa dalam serangkaian pelatihan, penerapan di kelas, dan pendampingan. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan dalam keterlibatan siswa, kreativitas guru, dan kesadaran terhadap keberagaman peserta didik. Humor yang disisipkan secara kontekstual terbukti menciptakan suasana belajar yang menyenangkan, merangsang interaksi sosial, dan memperkuat relasi afektif antara guru dan siswa. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa humor tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai hiburan, melainkan juga sebagai strategi pembelajaran yang inklusif, efektif, dan berkelanjutan.

Abstract

This thesis analyzes the narrative structure of Baz Luhrmann’s 2013 adaptation of The Great Gatsby using A.J. Greimas’ actantial model. The study aims to explore how the roles of actants influence the story’s progression and themes, and how the narrative structure shapes character relationships within the film. Employing a qualitative descriptive method, the research identifies and categorizes the six actants—Subject, Object, Sender, Receiver, Helper, and Opponent—within the movie’s plot. The analysis reveals that Jay Gatsby functions as the Subject in pursuit of Daisy Buchanan, the Object, with the supporting characters embodying various actantial roles that shape the film’s development. The study also applies Greimas’ canonical narrative schema to examine the narrative progression through stages of Manipulation, Competence, Performance, and Sanction. Findings show that the movie’s narrative structure not only follows a classical storytelling model but also reflects deeper socio-cultural themes such as the illusion of the American Dream, class struggle, and identity. Through this approach, the research highlights how structuralist narrative theory enhances the understanding of character dynamics and thematic complexity in cinematic adaptations of literary works.

Abstract

This article analyzes nonverbal communication in the drama performance of Timun Emas at the Children's Forum (FASTi) in East Sambirejo. The aim is to understand how nonverbal expressions such as gestures, facial expressions, posture, eye contact, and intonation contribute to the delivery of moral messages to children aged 10–18. Using qualitative descriptive methods, the data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings suggest that nonverbal communication effectively supports children's understanding of the storyline and values such as courage, compassion, and creativity. This study highlights the educational potential of drama through nonverbal cues as a medium for character building.

Abstract

Studies related to revisit intention are important, especially in the post-COVID-19 pandemic era. At that time, many tourism destinations and businesses were destroyed and tended to close, so a strategy was needed to revive revisit intention at tourist destinations in Indonesia. This study aims to provide a tourism marketing perspective on tour service quality, Cleanliness, Health, Safety, and environmental sustainability (CHSE), tourist satisfaction, and gender. Tourist satisfaction as a mediator and gender as a moderator. This study employs a quantitative approach, data collection with a questionnaire, with a sample of domestic tourists. The study was conducted from June to September 2024, using a questionnaire administered directly via Google Forms. The study included 350 respondents; the sample was determined using purposive sampling. Data have been analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling and Multi-Group Analysis with Smart PLS 3.0. This investigation found that both female and male tourists: tour service quality has a positive effect on tourist satisfaction and revisit intention. Meanwhile, for both females and males, the role of CHSE does not significantly affect revisit intention. Tourist satisfaction has a positive effect on revisit intention. The results of the indirect effect show that tourist satisfaction mediates the effects of tour service quality and CHSE on revisit intention, for both males and females. The moderation effect of gender in the relationship between tour service quality, CHSE, and tour satisfaction has a positive influence, but the relationship is not significant.

Abstract

English communication skills are a crucial competency for tourism students in response to the growing demands of the global tourism industry. Nevertheless, many students continue to experience challenges in using English effectively for professional purposes. This research aims to examine the enhancement of tourism students’ English communication skills through the application of a Cooperative Project-Based STEAM learning model. A quasi-experimental research design was employed, involving tourism students as participants. Data were gathered through English communication skill assessments, observation checklists, and questionnaires. The instructional activities were carried out through cooperative group projects that integrated Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) elements into authentic tourism-related tasks. The findings reveal that students’ English communication skills especially in terms of speaking fluency, vocabulary mastery, self-confidence, and collaborative abilities showed significant improvement following the implementation of the learning model. In addition, students demonstrated positive attitudes toward cooperative and project-based learning. Therefore, it can be concluded that the Cooperative Project-Based STEAM learning model effectively enhances English communication skills in tourism education and may serve as an alternative approach in English language instruction.
