Abstract

The multicultural traditional market in Biboki Anleu serves as a socio-economic interaction space where speakers from diverse ethnolinguistic backgrounds engage using Tetun as a lingua franca, revealing rich pragmatic dynamics. This study aims to identify and analyze the types of Tetun illocutionary acts in marketplace interactions and assess the role of Tetun in fostering multicultural communication and social solidarity. A qualitative approach was employed using participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and discourse analysis. Data were collected from real-time interactions between sellers and buyers in Biboki Anleu Market. Four dominant types of illocutionary acts were identified: directive, representative, expressive, and commissive. Language strategies reflected local politeness norms, pragmatic efficiency, and cultural adaptation. Tetun illocutionary acts function not only as transactional tools but also as mechanisms for reinforcing social identity and cultural integration. The findings contribute theoretically to regional language pragmatics and practically to multicultural market development and Tetun language preservation.

Abstract

Teacher performance is a crucial factor in ensuring the quality of education in Indonesia, but it is often affected by the increasing demands to complete many tasks simultaneously, This research aims to analyze the dual roles of teachers that affect their performance effectiveness in the context of implementing the Merdeka Curriculum. The method used in this study is qualitative. The population for this research includes all secondary school-level teachers in the three districts. Data was collected using several methods, including interviews, documents, and observation. Data obtained from interviews, observations, and document reviews were analyzed qualitatively using thematic analysis techniques. The findings indicate that excessive multitasking leads to reduced preparation time, increased work stress, and decreased focus on core teaching tasks. However, some teachers develop adaptive strategies, such as time management techniques and collaborative task division, to maintain performance. This research suggests policy adjustments to balance task distribution, reduce non-teaching workload, and provide professional development that enhances resilience in multitasking. This finding offers practical implications for improving teacher productivity and maintaining the quality of education in Indonesia.

Abstract

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk memgetahui pengaruh penerapan metode ice breaking terhadap peningkatan minat belajar siswa serta menggambarkan proses pelaksanaannya dalam pembelajaran Pendidikan Agama Katolik. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode quasi eksperimen, yaitu pretest-posttest control grup design. Subjek dalam penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas VA sebagai kelas eksperimen yang diberi perlakuan dengan metode ice breaking, dan siswa kelas VB sebagai kelas kontrol yang diajar tanpa metode tersebut. Data dikumpulkan melalui tes (pretest dan posttest) pada kelompok kontrol dan kelompok eksperimen serta observasi untuk melihat indikator minat belajar siswa, seperti perhatian, keterlibatan, antuiasme, dan rasa suka terhadap pembelajaran. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya perbedaan singnifikan antara kelas eksperimen dan kelas kontrol. Rata-rata hasil posttest siswa pada kelas eksperimen mencapai 76,21, sedangkan kelas kontrol hanya mencapai 59,72. Dilihat dari uji stastistik ice breaking tidak terlalu mempengaruhi hasil perbandingan rata-rata (Mean). Jadi pengaruh antara kelas kontrol dan kelas perlakuan 30,72%. Data  Observasi juga memperlihatkan bahwa siswa kelas eksperimen lebih aktif, fokus, termotivasi, dan menikmati proses pembelajaran. Hasil analisis data menggunakan uji t independen menunjukkan nilai signifikan (Sig. 2-tailed) sebesar 0,00 (<0,05), yang berarti terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan antara kedua kelas. Hal ini menegaskan bahwa penerapan metode ice breaking secara nyata berpengaruh positif dalam meningkatkan minat belajar siswa. Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa metode ice breaking efektif dalam menciptakan suasana belajar yang menyenangkan dan kondusif serta mampu meningkatkan minat belajar siswa dalam mata pelajaran Pendidikan Agama Katolik. Penerapan metode ini sangat disarankan bagi guru-guru agar siswa lebih antusias, aktif, dan termotivasi dalam mengikuti proses pembelajaran, khususnya pada mata pelajaran yang sering dianggap monoton.

Abstract

Abstract:  This study examines the implementation of an experiential-based literacy program through a feature writing competition aimed at strengthening students’ literacy skills in North Central Timor Regency. The program was carried out through several stages, including perception alignment, school-based mentoring, writing practice, and evaluation and reflection on the outcomes. The study employed data triangulation through observation, interviews, and analysis of students’ written works. The findings indicate that the experiential learning approach increased students’ engagement, particularly in the affective and reflective dimensions, and supported the development of narrative ideas. However, the study also identified a gap between students’ storytelling abilities and their mastery of journalistic writing techniques, including weaknesses in language use. Nevertheless, the program had a positive impact on students’ self-confidence, motivation, and reflective awareness. The study concludes that experience-based literacy is effective as an entry point for developing contextual literacy. However, this approach still requires continuous reinforcement in technical writing skills and students’ linguistic competence.   Key Words: Experiential learning, Literacy, Feature writing, Narrative competence, Contextual literacy   Abstrak: Penelitian ini mengkaji implementasi program literasi berbasis pengalaman melalui lomba penulisan feature untuk memperkuat kemampuan literasi siswa di Kabupaten Timor Tengah Utara. Program dilaksanakan melalui beberapa tahap, yaitu penyamaan persepsi, pendampingan di sekolah, praktik menulis, serta evaluasi dan refleksi hasil. Penelitian menggunakan triangulasi data melalui observasi, wawancara, dan analisis karya siswa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pendekatan experiential learning meningkatkan keterlibatan siswa, terutama pada aspek afektif dan reflektif, serta membantu pengembangan ide naratif. Namun, masih ditemukan kesenjangan antara kemampuan bercerita dan penguasaan teknik jurnalistik, termasuk kelemahan pada aspek kebahasaan. Meski demikian, kegiatan ini memberikan dampak positif terhadap peningkatan kepercayaan diri, motivasi, dan kesadaran reflektif siswa. Penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa literasi berbasis pengalaman efektif sebagai sarana pengembangan literasi kontekstual. Akan tetapi, pendekatan ini tetap memerlukan penguatan berkelanjutan pada kemampuan teknis penulisan dan kompetensi kebahasaan siswa.   Kata Kunci: experiential learning, literasi, penulisan feature, kompetensi naratif, literasi kontekstual
