Abstract

The English language ability test, in this case TOEFL, is an international standard language test to measure English language skills for speakers whose mother tongue is not English. In Indonesia, there are several conditions that require someone to take the TOEFL test, including continuing higher education both at home and abroad, meeting college graduation requirements, knowing the level of language skills applying for jobs, and getting a promotion. In general, there are three types of TOEFL, namely IBT (internet-based test), PBT (paper-based test), and ITP (Institutional Testing Program).

Abstract

This article explores a community service initiative aimed at enhancing literacy among children in Rejatengah Village, Indonesia, as part of the national effort to develop Indonesia’s Golden Generation by 2045. The project was conducted by a team from Al Maksum College of Teacher Training and Education over a one-month period, targeting children aged 6 to 9 years. The initiative involved comprehensive educational activities, including literacy assessments, interactive workshops, and parental involvement, to foster a supportive learning environment. Significant improvements in literacy skills were observed, attributed to the innovative teaching methods and community engagement strategies employed. The establishment of a permanent educational resource center has ensured the sustainability of educational efforts, serving as a model for similar interventions in other rural areas. This project not only highlights the critical role of community-based educational programs in enhancing literacy but also demonstrates the potential of such initiatives to contribute to broader national development goals.

Abstract

This study aims to identify errors that are often made by 5th semester English language students in completing tree diagram assignments, especially in analyzing sentence structures in the Syntax course. The method used in this study is a descriptive qualitative approach, with data analysis techniques in the form of content analysis of 22 students who were divided into 10 groups to work on the task of making tree diagrams from English news texts from various sources. Based on the analysis, several types of main errors were found, namely errors in identifying word categories (168 words), incorrect node labeling (42 node labeling), and incorrect application of phrase structures (11 phrase structures). In addition, students also have difficulty in understanding the hierarchical relationship between syntactic elements, such as the correct placement of determiners and auxiliary verbs. These errors are often caused by a lack of understanding of basic word categories and the underlying syntactic rules. This study reveals that making tree diagrams requires a deep understanding not only of syntactic theory, but also its practical application in everyday sentence analysis. Errors in node labeling and errors in syntactic category identification indicate the need for a more contextual and deeper understanding-based learning approach.

Abstract

Peningkatan penggunaan alat berbasis Kecerdasan Buatan (Artificial Intelligence/AI) seperti ChatGPT di kalangan siswa tidak selalu dibarengi dengan kesadaran etis yang memadai, sehingga berpotensi menimbulkan risiko seperti ketergantungan, menurunnya kreativitas, dan pelanggaran integritas akademik. Program Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PKM) ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan literasi digital yang etis dengan mengedukasi siswa tentang penggunaan AI yang bertanggung jawab dalam konteks pendidikan. Program ini melibatkan 97 siswa dari SMP dan SMK Al Maksum, dan dilaksanakan melalui ceramah, diskusi kelompok, simulasi penggunaan AI, serta media interaktif. Untuk mengukur efektivitas kegiatan, digunakan instrumen angket pre-test dan post-test. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa lebih dari 85% peserta mengalami peningkatan pemahaman dan kesadaran kritis terhadap penggunaan AI, dengan capaian tujuan program melampaui 90%. Sebagai tindak lanjut, program ini merekomendasikan integrasi topik-topik terkait AI ke dalam kurikulum sekolah serta pengembangan modul pelatihan bagi guru guna mendukung praktik digital yang etis dan berkelanjutan di lingkungan pendidikan. Inisiatif ini menjadi landasan penting dalam membentuk budaya penggunaan AI yang bertanggung jawab dan berwawasan di lingkungan sekolah. Kata Kinci : AI;Pemanfaatan; Sosialisasi

Abstract

This research aims to explore the effectiveness of contextual storytelling in enhancing English speaking skills among students, with a particular focus on incorporating local wisdom from North Sumatra. The study was conducted with English Education students at STKIP Al Maksum, specifically targeting second-semester students across two classes. The research employed a developmental approach, using a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods. The participants engaged in storytelling activities based on local wisdom, integrating both digital storytelling tools and traditional narratives to improve their speaking abilities. Data were collected through pre- and post-tests, student feedback surveys, and observations. The results demonstrated significant improvement in students’ fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary usage, and coherence in English speaking. Additionally, students showed a deeper connection to their cultural heritage and reported increased confidence in sharing local stories in English. The integration of digital tools, such as video and audio recordings, proved highly effective in enhancing student engagement and creativity. Overall, the findings suggest that the contextual storytelling model, rooted in local wisdom, is an innovative and effective method for improving students’ English speaking skills while fostering cultural awareness. This study contributes valuable insights to the field of English language teaching by demonstrating the positive impact of incorporating local culture and digital storytelling in language learning.

Abstract

Provinsi Kepulauan Bangka Belitung memiliki kekayaan folklor yang berpotensi mendukung pengembangan pariwisata berbasis budaya. Namun, di SMPN 4 Sungailiat, pemahaman siswa terhadap kekayaan budaya lokal masih rendah, disebabkan oleh keterbatasan materi folklor dalam kurikulum dan metode pengajaran yang kurang menarik. Program pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pemahaman dan penguasaan folklor lokal di kalangan siswa dan tenaga pendidik melalui asistensi e-learning berbasis folklor, serta untuk mengidentifikasi kendala yang dihadapi dalam implementasinya. Pendekatan yang digunakan adalah Participatory Action Research (PAR), dengan teknik analisis data yang mencakup tahap Preparation, Implementation, dan Monitoring Result. Hasil program pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini menunjukkan bahwa integrasi materi folklor melalui e-learning dapat meningkatkan kesadaran dan apresiasi siswa terhadap budaya lokal, meskipun masih terdapat tantangan berupa keterbatasan infrastruktur teknologi dan kurangnya keterampilan guru dalam mengelola pembelajaran digital berbasis folklor. Kontribusi dari program pengabdian ini terletak pada pengembangan model pembelajaran digital yang mengintegrasikan elemen budaya lokal untuk mendukung pariwisata dan pelestarian budaya. Hasilnya dapat menjadi acuan bagi kebijakan pendidikan dan pengembangan kurikulum berbasis kearifan lokal di tingkat sekolah.

Abstract

This research employs critical discourse analysis (CDA) to examine a news article titled "KPU Chief Rebuffs Allegations of Bias during VP Debate" from the Jakarta Post, focusing on the transition from print to online media or E-Paper. In this research, the two main methods used to collect data are documentation via the Jakarta Post e-paper news page and content review. This approach provides the advantage of exploring information in depth and comprehensively related to the phenomenon or event that is the focus of the research. Utilizing Teun A. van Dijk's CDA framework, the analysis encompasses macro, superstructure, and micro structures. The macro-structural analysis reveals the social and political context, identifying social groups and emphasizing narrative importance. The critical discourse superstructure analysis delves into linguistic patterns, representations of power, and strategic language use. Finally, the micro-structural analysis explores word choice, grammar, writing style, and sentence structure to understand how language constructs arguments and responds to accusations. Through these lenses, the study provides a comprehensive understanding of how the news shapes and reflects social and political dynamics, contributing valuable insights into media discourse surrounding political events in Indonesia.
