Abstract

This study investigates the role of logo symbolism in shaping the identity and communication strategies of State Islamic Universities (UINs) in Central Java, Indonesia. Logos serve as powerful visual representations of an institution's identity, blending cultural and religious values. Despite their importance, there is limited research on the semiotic analysis of UIN logos, particularly in terms of integrating Islamic identity with local cultural heritage. This research examines the challenges faced by the Towani Tolotang community in Indonesia, focusing on gender stereotypes, cultural conservatism, and economic barriers to higher education, especially for women. The Towani Tolotang community’s adherence to traditional values often creates a conflict between higher education and cultural preservation, limiting educational opportunities. Gender expectations and economic limitations further exacerbate this issue, with women’s education often deprioritized and financial constraints hindering access to higher education. This study adopts a qualitative descriptive approach, utilizing semiotic analysis based on Charles Peirce's theory and Cerrato’s color theory. Data was gathered through documentation techniques from online repositories, focusing on logos from five UINs in Central Java. Findings indicate that these logos incorporate Islamic values while reflecting local cultural heritage, using symbols such as gunungan, flowers, and specific color schemes (green, white, yellow, orange, gold, and black). These logos not only embody cultural preservation but also promote progressive Islamic education. The study underscores the significance of logo symbolism in reinforcing institutional identity, enhancing public perception, and boosting the competitiveness of UINs globally.

Abstract

The integration of digital literacy into educational practices has garnered significant attention in recent years, particularly in the context of language learning. Digital literacy refers to the ability to effectively and critically navigate, evaluate, and create information using various digital technologies. Given its growing importance, this study sought to evaluate the impact of digital literacy competence on improving English language skills through blended learning in the Independent Campus Program at Ichsan Sidenreng Rappang University. Employing a quantitative experimental method with a one-group pretest-posttest design, the study gathered data through English language tests and questionnaires. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in students’ English skills, with the pretest average score of 31.7 rising to 84.7 in the posttest. The Paired Sample t-test confirmed the statistical significance of this difference (p-value = 0.000). Additionally, the Pearson correlation test revealed a moderate positive relationship between digital literacy and English proficiency (r = 0.456), indicating that students with higher digital literacy competencies tended to perform better in English. These findings underscore the significant role that digital literacy plays in enhancing language skills, particularly when integrated with technology-based learning approaches. For future research, further studies could explore the long-term impact of digital literacy on language acquisition, the effectiveness of various digital tools in language learning, and how digital literacy interacts with other factors, such as motivation and learning styles, to influence language proficiency. Additionally, expanding the research to include diverse educational settings and student populations could provide a broader understanding of digital literacy’s role in language education.
