Abstract

In the digital era, social media significantly shapes adolescent identity by creating hyperreal representations that blur the boundaries between reality and simulation. This study aims to analyze how social media simulacra are depicted in Al Rawabi School for Girls Season 2 and their impact on adolescents. Using a qualitative approach, six episodes were analyzed through Jean Baudrillard’s four stages of images: reflection of image, denatures of image, absence of image, and no relation of image. The results show that denatures of image stage is most dominant, revealing how digital image manipulation affects teenagers perception, behaviors, and social interactions. The hyperreality of social media contributes to bullying, suicide, identity distortion, and consumptive banality among teenagers. This study contributes to research on modern Arab media and culture by applying postmodern theories of simulacra and hyperreality to contemporary youth media, providing insight into how digital images and social validation shape teenagers' identity.

Abstract

Background: The digital era, technology, especially artificial intelligence (AI), plays a crucial role in education, including at the elementary and secondary levels. Applications such as ChatGPT are considered capable of improving the quality of learning through interactive features tailored to student needs. Purpose: However, the application of AI in Islamic elementary schools (MI) remains limited, particularly in its impact on teachers' pedagogical competence and students' digital literacy. Method: This study employed a qualitative approach to explore and understand the experiences and perceptions of teachers and students at Islamic elementary schools (Madrasah Ibtidaiyah) regarding the use of artificial intelligence (AI)-based technology, specifically ChatGPT, in learning to improve students' digital literacy and teachers' pedagogical competence. Result: The results of this study, including the implementation of an AI technology workshop at MI Bina Umat, demonstrated an increase in teachers' competence in planning and implementing adaptive learning. Conclusion: The use of Canva and ChatGPT proved effective in developing interactive media and preparing learning evaluations. Furthermore, students' digital literacy also improved, as evidenced by their ability to independently use digital information and utilize AI to support the learning process. Implication: The integration of AI in elementary schools is an innovative solution to address the challenges of modern education.

Abstract

Increasingly competitive business competition has encouraged manufacturers to innovate in promoting their products, one of which is through audiovisual advertising media. However, most previous studies have only highlighted the persuasive aspect without exploring the symbolic meaning contained therein. Therefore, this study was conducted to reveal the hidden signs and meanings in rice comedy advertisements on the Instagram account @alamee.had, focusing on the mythology of AI sophistication and validity based on Roland Barthes' perspective. This study used a qualitative method with Roland Barthes' semiotic approach, which includes denotative, connotative, and mythical analysis. Three advertising clips showing the role of AI in determining product choices were then analyzed using descriptive interpretive techniques. The results of the study show that these advertisements implicitly construct a myth about AI as a technology that is considered intelligent, rational, and has great potential to influence human decisions regarding technology in everyday life. This research theoretically expands Barthes' semiotic study through the reading of modern technology myths in contemporary Arabic advertisements.Keywords - Advertisement, AI Myths, Semiotics.

Abstract

In the era of Society 5.0, the phenomenon of automatic translation is getting more attention as communication technology advances, especially with the presence of translation engines such as Auto Translation and ChatGPT. Both are widely used in language transfer, including for official texts such as diplomatic speeches. This study aims to identify and compare the translation strategies used by Auto Translation and ChatGPT in translating the Arabic speech delivered by Indonesian Deputy Foreign Minister Anis Matta during the OIC Summit in Riyadh on November 11, 2024. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a comparative method. Primary data is obtained from Arabic speech transcripts and the results of the translation of the two machines, while secondary data comes from various relevant literatures. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation and note-taking, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The results show that the most dominant strategy used by both is Transcription (34% Auto Translation, 42% ChatGPT). The Harfiyyah strategy was found 18% in Auto Translation and 19% in ChatGPT. The Ziyadah strategy appeared 12% in Auto Translation and 8% in ChatGPT. The Transposition strategy was found 6% in Auto Translation and 11% in ChatGPT. The Description strategy was used more by ChatGPT at 12% than Auto Translation with 3%). Taqdim wa ta'khir strategy appears equally at 6%, while Tabdil (9%) and Hazf (12%) strategies are only found in Auto Translation. The results show a significant difference in that Auto Translation is more flexible in replacing or omitting text elements, while ChatGPT is more descriptive and contextual. This research contributes to the study of technology-based translation, especially Arabic-Indonesian diplomatic texts.

Abstract

This qualitative study aims to reveal and explain the unity of meaning contained in Haninun's (حنين) poetry through Michael Riffaterre's semiotic approach, specifically by utilizing heuristic reading, hermeneutic reading, and tracing matrix structures, models, and variants. The data analysis technique used is Miles and Huberman's analysis technique. The results of the semiotic analysis of Faruq Juwaidah's poem Haninun using Michael Riffaterre's perspective show that the poetic meaning in the text is constructed through the process of heuristic reading, hermeneutic reading, and mapping the relationship between matrix, model, and variant. The results of heuristic reading show that the lexical structure of the poem is dominated by the forms ism, harf, and a number of verbs in fi‘il madhi and fi‘il mudhari, which linguistically indicate the poet's tendency to use diction with emotional, relational, and existential nuances.

Abstract

The conflict between the inner world and the need to find identity is a common topic discussed in contemporary literature, particularly through symbols of psychological relationships. However, a significant number of Jungian literary interpretations continue to view archetypes as fixed symbols, rather than as interconnected processes of individualization. This gap can be traced in readings of contemporary Arabic novels, such as Husein Mahran's Sanawat Ats-Tsaqb Al-Aswad, which depicts the main character, Yasin Imran, as torn between social norms and his strong inner desires. This paper will examine how Jungian archetypes are reflected and how the interaction between them contributes to the main character's individualization process. This paper is a combination of descriptive qualitative research and literary psychology based on Carl Gustav Jung's theory of archetypes. The primary data source is the 2021 edition of Sanawat Ats-Tsaqb Al-Aswad, and the secondary data are based on relevant academic literature on analytical psychology and literary works. Data collection involved a careful reading of narrative passages, conversations, and descriptions that exhibit characteristics of Jungian archetypes. The data were analyzed using Miles and Huberman's interactive approach, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results of this study indicate that the four Jungian archetypes presented in the novel represent evolutionary stages in Yasin's psychological growth. Yasin's persona is shown as a disciplined and obedient character, a mask used socially to maintain social stability. The shadow is Yasin's duplicate and depicts an unrealized life, emphasizing the dissociation between ego and inner desires. The anima manifests through Yasin's emotional involvement with Farida, thus intensifying the conflict between rationality and affectivity. Ultimately, the conflict between the two versions of Yasin's personality reflects the archetype of the self, meaning the union of the ego with all parts of the soul. Conceptually, through this study, the concept of archetype can be applied in contemporary Arabic literature not only as a psychological symbol but also as a narrative structure that shapes the individualization of the protagonist.

Abstract

Bahasa Indonesia: Cerpen Iblīsu Yantaṣiru karya Taufiq Al-Hakim mengisahkan seorang laki-laki saleh yang bertekad menegakkan kebenaran dan melawan kesesatan masyarakat. Akan tetapi, tekadnya akhirnya runtuh akibat godaan hawa nafsu duniawi. Narasinya disusun untuk menggambarkan pergulatan batin antara idealisme agama dan godaan materi, yang mencerminkan konflik moral yang kerap muncul di masyarakat. Alur cerita berkembang dari munculnya masalah dan tujuan sang tokoh utama hingga klimaks, yang mengungkap kegagalan spiritual akibat integritas moral yang lemah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji hubungan antartokoh dan bentuk-bentuk konflik dalam cerpen tersebut dengan menerapkan teori aktansial dan struktural fungsional AJ Greimas, menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif dan pendekatan naratologis. Sumber data utama adalah cerpen Iblīsu Yantaṣiru dan berbagai rujukan relevan. Data dikumpulkan melalui teknik baca, terjemah, dan catat, sedangkan analisisnya mengikuti model Miles dan Huberman: reduksi data, penyajian, dan simpulan. Analisis menunjukkan bahwa Nasik, sosok yang dikenal karena kesalehannya, adalah subjek yang ingin menebang “pohon kesesatan” demi menyelamatkan masyarakat (objek), didorong oleh keimanannya (pengirim) dan dibantu oleh kapak (penolong). Ia terhalang oleh setan dan hawa nafsunya sendiri (rintangan). Dalam kerangka struktur fungsional, Nasik gagal pada tahap transformasi karena motivasinya telah berubah dari niat tulus demi Allah menjadi hawa nafsu duniawi. Akibatnya, tujuan tidak tercapai dan masyarakat tetap dalam keadaan kebingungan.

Abstract

The Wanagama 1 Forest, owned by Universitas Gadjah Mada  in Playen, is an educational and research forest that is home to different species of trees that are managed and treated differently. Finding the quality index values for different cropping strategies in plot 17 of Wanagama Educational Forest 1 was the aim of this study. The soil quality index was determined using three methods: simple addition, scoring and weighting, and summation. The results show that in plot 17 of the Wanagama forest, the highest soil quality index values were found for ebony species and the lowest soil quality index values were found for mahogany and Eucalyptus species. The results showed that all land uses with different types of forest plants had lower soil quality indices. The stepwise analysis results showed that porosity, organic C, cation exchange capacity (CEC), P availability, K availability, and C biomass influenced the soil quality index. Measuring soil quality can help you learn more about soil properties and how to improve it through effective management.
