Abstract

This study attempts to reveal how language is being used in the conservation of orangutan in Bukit Lawang, North Sumatra, Indonesia. The researchers focus on investigating the framing and metaphor as the reflection of how language is being used to represent the ideology of the policy makers, conservationist, local communities in communicating the urgency of protecting orangutan. The problem is vivid since there is no attempt before by linguists to discover the role of language in the conservation of orangutan. Hence, the status quo remains unanswered. This research fills the gap of the missing links of the unknown about the language used in orangutan’ conservation. This research applied qualitative research in which the data gathered in the form of discourses from various sources like infographic, reports and interview. At the same time, this study embraced Stibbe’s approach in ecolinguistics. Some results are quite alarming because the type of the framing about orangutan is negative such as Human-wildlife conflict frame or destructive metaphor such as ‘orangutan is the pest’ and ‘the kidnapper’. There are also ambivalent framing and metaphor which put endangered animal in a vague situation.

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 research explores the representation of social class division in “12th Fail” movie using Marxism theory approach. The movie shows the struggle of individuals from the lower class in facing an unequal education system as a reflection of social inequality in society. This research aims to find out the representation of social classes such as the bourgeoisie, middle class, and proletariat, as well as how the class struggle is depicted through characters and storylines. In addition, this research also uses the concept of base and superstructure from Karl Marx, where the base refers to the economic structure acts as the foundation of social life and production, while the superstructure including institutions such as culture, law, education, and ideology that supports and maintains the existing class structure. In the context of “12th Fail”, the movie illustrates how limited economic access (base) impedes educational opportunities, and how schools, the legal system, and social norms (superstructure) uphold systemic inequalities. The method used is descriptive qualitative with literature study, through the analysis of dialog, character interaction, and visual narration in the movie. The research concludes that “12th Fail” movie reflects the core of Marxism theory, showing that education can be both a tool of domination and social emancipation. This analysis contributes to a deeper understanding of class issues in literature, and confirms that movie can be a medium for social criticism and awareness.
