Abstract

Environmental degradation, particularly in regions like Ternate, Indonesia, underscores the urgency of embedding sustainability education in early schooling. While ecoliteracy has gained global recognition, its integration into English language teaching (ELT) at the elementary level remains underexplored, especially in underrepresented contexts. This study investigates the strategies used by English teachers in Ternate to incorporate ecoliteracy into classroom practice. Adopting a qualitative case study design, data were gathered from ten teachers across five schools through interviews, observations, questionnaires, and document analysis, and analyzed thematically. Findings reveal six approaches, with three emerging as most dominant: embedding environmental themes in lessons, employing project-based learning, and modeling eco-behavioral English instructions. These strategies demonstrate how language instruction can simultaneously foster communicative competence and ecological responsibility. Beyond documenting classroom practices, the study highlights the potential of ELT as a platform for sustainability education, even in resource-limited settings. It contributes to theory by linking ecolinguistics to pedagogy, and to practice by offering context-sensitive models for ecoliteracy integration. Implications extend to teacher training, curriculum design, and education policy, underscoring the need for systematic inclusion of sustainability in ELT. Ultimately, the study positions ecoliteracy not as an enrichment but as a transformative approach that unites language learning with sustainable development.

Abstract

In small-island Muslim communities across Eastern Indonesia, the intergenerational transmission of oral literature and Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) is under growing pressure because of modernisation, urbanisation, and language shift yet this dimension of Islamic socio-cultural life remains underexplored in Indonesian scholarship. Ternate oral literature serves as a vital medium for transmitting local wisdom and ecological ethics rooted in the community’s Islamic spiritual relationship with nature. This study examines the condition of oral literary literacy in Ternate society, analyses how oral traditions preserve ecological values and cultural identity, and identifies socio-cultural barriers to intergenerational transmission, using Cultural Ecology and Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) as complementary analytical frameworks. Employing a descriptive qualitative design with an ethnographic orientation, data were collected from eighteen participants including elders, teachers, youth, cultural practitioners, and fishers between January and June 2025 (field observations: February–April 2025) through interviews, observations, and documentation of oral texts. Analysis of twelve oral forms four legends, four proverbs, two ritual chants, and two traditional songs reveals ecological wisdom emphasising gratitude, restraint, and reciprocity rooted in Islamic moral teachings and spiritual reminders (peringatan Tuhan), while a gradual decline in youth familiarity with these narratives reflects broader linguistic and cultural shifts. Oral traditions in Ternate persist not through static preservation but through what this study terms “intentional adaptation” structured mediation via education, Islamic ethics (dakwah ekologis), and digital technology demonstrating the adaptive resilience of Ternate oral culture as a living biocultural system. This study contributes to religion and socio-cultural life by showing how Islamic moral values embedded in Ternate’s oral tradition can be the basis for ecological literacy and sustainability education in Indonesia’s Muslim community.

Abstract

Bullying remains a serious issue in elementary school environments as it negatively affects students’ social and emotional development. This community service program aimed to enhance students’ understanding and attitudes toward anti-bullying through interactive educational activities. The program was conducted at SDN 1 Kota Ternate on July 21, 2025, involving 35 fifth-grade students. The implementation stages included a pre-test, material delivery, interactive discussions, value reinforcement activities, and a post-test evaluation. The evaluation results indicated improvements across all assessed indicators. In recognizing forms of bullying, students in the high understanding category increased from 5 in the pre-test to 23 in the post-test, while the low category decreased from 20 to 4 students. Understanding of bullying impacts also improved, with the high category rising from 5 to 19 students. In terms of response and prevention skills, the high category increased from 4 to 19 students, accompanied by a reduction in the low category from 22 to 6 students. Similar progress was observed in empathy and social awareness, where the high category rose from 6 to 19 students. These findings indicate that participatory anti-bullying education effectively enhances students’ cognitive understanding and fosters positive social attitudes. The program demonstrates strong potential as a sustainable preventive strategy for creating a safe and child-friendly school environment.

Abstract

This research aims to identify the types and functions of code switching used by Indonesian K-pop fans on Twitter. A qualitative descriptive method with a content analysis approach was employed in this study. A total of 40 tweets were collected through documentation from active Indonesian K-pop fan accounts that exhibit code switching. The analysis is based on Poplack’s (1980) classification of code switching types and Hoffman's (1991) framework for its functions. The findings show that Indonesian K-pop fans use three types of code switching: intra-sentential switching (19 cases), inter-sentential switching (18 cases), and tag switching (3 cases), with intra-sentential switching being the most dominant. Regarding the functions, the results reveal that code switching is used for talking about a particular topic (8 cases), being empathetic about something (expressing solidarity) (13 cases), quoting somebody else (1 case), intention of clarifying the speech content for the interlocutor (3 cases), interjection (inserting sentence fillers of connectors (3 cases), and expressing group identity (12 cases). The most dominant function is being empathetic about something (expressing solidarity).
