Abstract

Amid the growing polarization of identity politics ahead of Indonesia’s general election, political communication plays a central role in shaping public opinion and constructing collective identity. While much of contemporary political practice tends to exploit exclusive symbols based on ethnicity, religion, and social class, alternative approaches through inclusive rhetoric remain underexplored. This study aims to analyze how Ganjar Pranowo, through his political speech, constructs an inclusive narrative in response to the discourse of identity politics. The study employs Aristotelian rhetorical theory (logos, ethos, and pathos) as the primary framework to examine the persuasive strategies embedded in the speech. A qualitative approach with rhetorical discourse analysis is used. Data were drawn from transcripts of Ganjar Pranowo’s public speeches delivered during the national political campaign. The research instruments included a classification of rhetorical categories and thematic content analysis to interpret the strategic function of each rhetorical element. The findings reveal that Ganjar’s speech integrates rational argumentation, moral credibility, and emotional resonance in a balanced manner. He deploys narratives of social justice, equitable access, and recognition of marginalized groups as strategies to frame national identity inclusively. These results confirm that political rhetoric functions not only as a tool of electoral persuasion but also as a constitutive medium that reconstructs collective identity and challenges political exclusivism.

Abstract

This study explores how internal code-mixing in the short film Ayah reflects Javanese cultural values in family interactions. Framed by the ethnography of communication and sociolinguistic perspectives, it aims to identify the forms and functions of Indonesian–Javanese code-mixing and its role in cultural expression. Using a qualitative descriptive method, data were drawn purposively from fifteen dialogue scenes containing internal code-mixing. Analysis employed Dell Hymes’ SPEAKING model to reveal the communicative and cultural meanings of the utterances. Validity was ensured through theoretical triangulation and inter-rater agreement, and ethical standards were met through proper attribution and representation. Findings show that internal code-mixing, particularly using Javanese krama, functions to express politeness, affection, and identity. These linguistic choices embody core cultural values such as unggah-ungguh (etiquette), respect for elders, and familial harmony. The study concludes that internal code-mixing serves not only communicative but also symbolic purposes. It highlights the potential of culturally rich films as pedagogical resources to foster learners’ sociopragmatic competence and contextual speaking skills.

Abstract

This study examined the effects of fully online teaching and a blended teaching approach on the academic performance and digital literacy skills of student-teachers enrolled in an Educational Technology course at Alvan Ikoku Federal University of Education, Owerri. A quasi-experimental pre-test–post-test design was adopted, with a population of 589 level 200 pre-service teachers from the Faculty of Social and Management Sciences. The sample consisted of 92 student-teachers drawn from two intact groups in the Economics and Social Studies departments, taught during the second semester of the 2023/2024 academic year. Data were collected using two researcher-developed instruments: the Educational Technology Achievement Test (ETAT) and the Digital Literacy Skills Scale (DLSS), both validated by experts. Reliability testing yielded coefficients of 0.85 for ETAT (Kuder-Richardson 20) and 0.81 for DLSS (Cronbach’s alpha). Descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) were used to address research questions, while analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) tested the hypotheses. Findings showed that both groups achieved substantial learning gains, with the blended learning group outperforming the online-only group in academic performance. Additionally, both groups demonstrated improved digital literacy skills. The study concludes that blended learning offers greater instructional benefits and recommends that educational technology lecturers incorporate online delivery into regular face-to-face teaching to optimize learning outcomes.

Abstract

In the era of digital communication, language use in public discourse has shifted significantly, especially through platforms such as podcasts that promote informal yet influential conversations. This study aims to identify and analyze the politeness strategies employed by Prilly Latuconsina, a public figure, in a podcast hosted by Dedy Corbuzier and Vidi Aldiano. Using a pragmatic approach grounded in Geoffrey Leech’s (1983) politeness maxims, this qualitative study examines 150 utterances from the podcast transcript to determine the forms and frequency of politeness strategies in Prilly’s speech. The results show that she consistently applies the maxims of tact, approbation, modesty, sympathy, and agreement, predominantly using tact and approbation to construct a positive public image and maintain harmonious interactions. These findings suggest that public figures can serve as effective pragmatic models for formal education, particularly in teaching politeness strategies within Bahasa Indonesia language classes and university-level pragmatics and rhetoric courses. By integrating authentic digital discourse into language instruction, this research supports the development of students’ communicative competence in meaningful and context-rich ways, highlighting the pedagogical potential of podcast-based materials.

Abstract

This study explores the strategic functions of humor in an Indonesian podcast conversation between Raditya Dika and Pras Teguh. While humor in digital media is widely discussed, its pragmatic and cultural dimensions in Southeast Asian podcast discourse remain underexamined. Using a pragmatic linguistic framework and cultural discourse analysis, this study reveals that humor fulfills three key functions: building social rapport, mitigating face-threatening acts, and maintaining discourse coherence. The analysis draws on five major theories: incongruity, superiority, relief, general theory of verbal humor, and multimodal strategies. Methodologically, the study integrates verbal and non-verbal cues in naturalistic podcast data to capture how humor operates in spontaneous, informal interactions. The findings also show that intertextual references, cultural expressions, and soft stereotypes embedded in jokes reflect Indonesia’s high-context communication style and function as identity negotiation tools in the digital public sphere. This research contributes a Southeast Asian perspective to digital humor studies and highlights humor’s pedagogical value. It suggests that podcast-based humor, when contextually analyzed, can support language instruction by enhancing learners’ pragmatic awareness, intercultural sensitivity, and communicative competence.

Abstract

This study explores the forms, functions, and social meanings of code-mixing and code-switching in a digital youth podcast broadcast on the TikTok platform. Adopting a descriptive qualitative approach and grounded in Grosjean’s critical sociolinguistic framework, the research analyzes the transcript of a conversational podcast episode featuring two Indonesian teenage girls discussing the topic of boyfriends versus best friends. The analysis reveals that code-mixing serves not only as a communicative strategy but also as an identity marker, a symbol of modernity, and a medium for expressing social solidarity among urban female youth. Conversely, code-switching is employed to mark topic shifts, emphasize emotions, and manage interpersonal dynamics during the podcast interaction. These bilingual practices reflect a process of glocalization, wherein youth flexibly mobilize multilingual resources within digital, media-rich contexts. The study underscores the pedagogical relevance of integrating authentic, digitally mediated discourse into language learning to enhance multilingual literacy and critical awareness. It also contributes to bilingualism studies by highlighting how identity and symbolic power are constructed through everyday linguistic practices in online spaces.

Abstract

This study examines the use of humor, code-switching, and linguistic creativity in Indonesian–English bilingual podcasts oriented toward adolescents, with a particular focus on their pragmatic functions in digital communication, social interaction, and audience engagement. Grounded in sociolinguistic and pragmatic perspectives, particularly Gumperz’s (1982) theory of interactional code-switching and the General Theory of Verbal Humor proposed by Attardo and Raskin (1991), the study explores how bilingual practices are mobilized in podcast discourse. Employing a qualitative discourse-pragmatic approach, selected podcast excerpts are analyzed to identify patterns of humor including situational humor, self-deprecating humor, wordplay, and absurdity as well as strategic code-switching and linguistic creativity devices such as metaphors, neologisms, and creative categorization. The findings indicate that humor and code-switching function synergistically to convey social meanings, articulate speaker stance, and enhance audience appeal, while linguistic creativity expands the expressive potential of the discourse. These findings contribute to the growing scholarship on humor and code-switching in the Indonesian digital media context and offer practical implications for podcast-based language pedagogy aimed at fostering bilingual competence and pragmatic awareness.
