Bahasa Inggris, sebagai bahasa internasional yang semakin penting dalam dunia yang terhubung secara global, memiliki peran yang signifikan dalam pembentukan masa depan anak-anak. Untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan serta kemampuan anak-anak dalam mempelajari vocabulary dasar dalam Bahasa Inggris, kami menggunakan pendekatan pengajaran aktif yang melibatkan permainan flash card, media lagu, serta penggunaan teknologi. Melalui penggunaan metode yang sesuai anak-anak dapat secara efektif diperkenalkan pada kosakata bahasa Inggris yang memadai sejak dini. Dalam menyampaikan materi kami berusaha untuk membuatnya menarik dimata peserta didik yang notabene adalah anak-anak, mereka menyukai pembelajaran jika dibarengi oleh audio dan video yang menarik perhatian mereka. Selain menggunakan flashcard dan proyektor sebagai sarana pembelajaran, saat mengajarkan nama benda yang ada di sekitar dalam Bahasa Inggris kami juga menyanyi sebagai metode penyampaian materi. Yang mana cara ini digemari anak-anak karena pada dasarnya mereka di Lembaga Pendidikan formal tentunya diajarkan nyanyian anak se usianya. Berdasarkan hasil dan pembahasan dapat disimpulkan bahwa secara umum media flashcard dapat meningkatkan kemampuan penguasaan kosa kata Bahasa Inggris, karena dengan menggunakan flashcard memungkinkan anak melihat gambar yang sesuai dengan kata-kata, serta membantu mereka mengaitkan kata dengan objek secara visual. Mengulang-ulang flashcard secara berkala dapat membantu memperkuat daya ingat anak terhadap kosa kata baru. Selain itu, mengenalkan vocabulary dengan menggunakan lagu juga sangat interaktif, karena dengan lirik berisi kosa kata bisa membuat pembealajaran lebih menyenangkan dan interaktif.

One of the most difficult and exciting forms of academic communication available to students is debate. One of the most challenging communication obstacles students face in their academic endeavors is debate speaking. This study aims to find and investigate the common issues debated by students. The study focuses on numerous important areas, including speaking anxiety, time management, framing arguments, handling counterarguments, improving debate forms, and team coordination inside a debate team. Data collecting and processing for this study used quantitative descriptive approaches. The debate class consists of forty college students registered. Five student interviews plus a prepared questionnaire helped to compile the data. The results show that most students struggle with controlling limited speaking time during debates, have trouble with spontaneous reasoning, and suffer from speaking anxiety. Two other noted major obstacles were inadequate team coordination and a lack of knowledge concerning discussion procedures. To improve students' speaking ability in debate environments, lecturers and debate coaches should offer specialized training programs stressing debate strategy, speaking fluency, and team collaboration techniques. This study clarifies students' speaking challenges and offers reasonable suggestions for strengthening debate education in universities.

There has been a rise in the number of mental health problems that college students are suffering as a direct result of the increased levels of stress that are present in the university environment. Students can effectively communicate their emotions through writing activities such as maintaining a diary, writing poetry, or engaging in introspective writing. On the other hand, educational institutions in Indonesia continue to overlook research questions about how students can improve their mental health through the use of personal writing. The purpose of this study is to investigate how children utilize writing as a means of effectively expressing their feelings and preserving their mental health. Researchers from Universitas Muhammadiyah Semarang recruited thirty students from the second, sixth, and eighth semesters to participate in the study. A quantitative and descriptive method was utilized in the investigation. To collect the information, we conducted a survey consisting of a single question. After engaging in activities that involved personal writing, the majority of participants in the survey reported feeling more emotionally balanced and experiencing lower levels of stress. The study's findings revealed this. The act of writing helped them become more self-aware, which in turn enhanced their emotional intelligence and problem-solving abilities. The results of the study suggest that students may be able to improve their mental health via the use of personal writing rather than through the use of pharmaceutical therapies. Instruction in reflective writing should be provided to students at educational institutions to promote the mental health of children.
