Abstract

While TikTok videos have shown promising effects on vocabulary learning among junior and senior high school students, further research is warranted to assess their impact on vocabulary mastery in twelfth-grade students specifically. This study seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of TikTok videos in enhancing vocabulary mastery among twelfth-grade students in senior high school. Employing a quasi-experimental design, the research involved 70 students divided equally into an experimental group and a control group. The data were collected in both groups through pre-tests and post-tests using multiple-choice items to measure students’ vocabulary mastery. The results from the statistical analysis of the paired-sample t-test indicated a significant improvement in vocabulary mastery for students using TikTok videos. This made strong evidence that TikTok videos were significantly effective in enhancing vocabulary acquisition among the twelfth-grade students. Although the study involved only a specific group of words, it offers valuable insights for educators seeking innovative strategies to improve students’ vocabulary acquisition through engaging digital media.

Abstract

Folklore serves as an important medium for transmitting cultural values across generations, yet many local narratives are increasingly neglected by younger communities. One of these is the Silampari Myth from Lubuklinggau, which has not been widely examined for its educational potential. To address this gap, this study analyzes the cultural values contained in the Silampari myth as an alternative material for character education. The research employed a qualitative descriptive method. The data were obtained from local folktales in Lubuklinggau City in the form of cultural values found in the Silampari myth, which include the nature of human life (MH), the nature of human work (MK), the nature of human relationships (MM), the nature of human time (MW), and the nature of human–nature relationships (MA). The results indicate that the cultural values reflected in the Silampari myth include honesty, tolerance, democratic attitudes, hard work, conflict avoidance or peacefulness, building friendship, and responsibility. Based on these cultural values, the Silampari myth can serve as an alternative material for character education, considering that the values it contains are aligned with national cultural and character values.
