Abstract

Children are naturally fond of stories that integrate meaning and humor yet engagingly deliver life principles and concepts. Stories provide not only entertainment but also a means of learning about various habits, cultures, and arrays of human experiences. In recent years, a remarkable shift has occurred in which children, previously passive consumers of stories, have become active contributors as child authors. In Bandung, the capital city of West Java capital city, a national publisher has emerged as a facilitator for child authors, allowing them to publish their creative works. This platform has published 536 novels written by young minds over the last two decades under the brand Kecil-Kecil Punya Karya (KKPK). This paper investigates the theme and genre preferred by child authors for their novels and to what extent immediate social factors influence their writing and topic preferences. This research may contribute valuable insights into the intersection of sociolinguistics, education, and societal influence by understanding the dynamics of child authorship. The results show that the themes preferred by the child authors are adventure and exploration, family and affection, friendship and mystery, and problem-solving. Immediate environment; family and school play a tremendous role in introducing, nurturing, and developing early literacy routines for child authors that lead to a positive productive literacy culture.

Abstract

This research explores the practices of distance learning in enhancing English speaking skills among migrant workers at the Community Learning Center (PKBM-PPI) in Taiwan. The research purpose is to understand how remote educational strategies are tailored to meet the unique needs of migrant workers, who often face challenges such as irregular work schedules and limited access to educational resources. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study combines quantitative data from pre- and post-course assessments with qualitative insights from participant interviews and instructor feedback. Key findings indicate that the integration of technology, such as mobile learning applications and online discussion forums, significantly improves learners' engagement and speaking proficiency. Additionally, the flexibility of distance learning programs allows workers to balance their educational pursuits with occupational demands. The study concludes that well-structured distance learning initiatives, supported by interactive and accessible content, can effectively develop English speaking skills among migrant workers, contributing to their personal and professional growth. The findings provide valuable insights for educators and policymakers aiming to implement effective language learning programs in similar contexts.

Abstract

This research aims to investigate the characteristics and functions of slang words used in the comment sections of international TikTok posts by Juliana Marins. The method applied is qualitative descriptive, based on Moleong (2017). Data were collected by reading the comments of international netizens on TikTok, gathering relevant slang expressions, analyzing and classifying them into various morphological categories, as well as examining their functions and drawing conclusions. The data were taken from several TikTok comments, using Allan and Burridge’s (2006) theory to analyze the types of slang, and Mattiello’s (2008) theory to examine their functions. The findings reveal that the morphological processes of the slang words include Clipping (28%), Blending (17%), Acronyms (23%), Reduplication (5%), Borrowing (7%), Semantic Shift (11%), and Compounding (7%). In terms of creativity, only 45% of the slang—particularly Clipping and Blending—were considered creative. However, regarding function, only 30% of the slang words were used to express identity, as only 3 out of 10 words analyzed served that purpose.
