Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the validity, practicality, and effectiveness of implementing board game media to increase the learning interest in Science and Social Studies (IPAS) among fifth-grade students at SD Negeri 06 Kampung Lapai. This research employed a qualitative approach with an R&D method based on the ADDIE (Branch) model. Data collection techniques used a questionnaire instrument. The media was designed in the form of a board game measuring 45 × 30 cm. Product validity results consisted of expert validation, namely linguists, material experts, and content experts. Product practicality results consisted of teachers’ responses, while product effectiveness results were obtained from students’ responses. The validation results from the linguist reached 77% (valid category), the material expert 86% (very valid category), and the content expert 90% (very valid category). The practicality results obtained 78% (practical category), and the product effectiveness reached 94% (very interesting category). Based on these findings, the Board Game “Snakes and Ladders” can be used in the IPAS learning process, particularly in the material “What is My Regional Culture Like?”, to foster students’ learning interest. This was evidenced by the questionnaire assessment results of students’ learning interest, which reached 94% (very interesting category). From these results, it can be concluded that the Snakes and Ladders Board Game is highly feasible to be used in the IPAS learning process for the material “What is My Regional Culture Like?” in elementary schools.

Abstract

Regional languages are an important element in the formation of the social and cultural identity of local communities. In the midst of modernization, urbanization, and the dominance of Indonesian as the national language, the use of regional languages is experiencing interesting dynamics to be studied. Informal public spaces such as traditional markets are strategic places to observe people's natural language practices. This study aims to describe and analyze the pattern of use of regional languages, especially Minangkabau languages, in daily interactions between sellers and buyers in traditional markets in Padang City. This study uses a qualitative approach with participatory observation methods and speech recording. Data were collected through direct observation of verbal interactions, dialogue recording, and audio documentation with the informant's permission. Data analysis was carried out using a sociolinguistic approach with a focus on language selection, code switching, and code mixing. The results show that the Minangkabau language still dominates verbal interaction in traditional markets, especially in informal situations and between local speakers who share the same cultural background. Bahasa Indonesia is used selectively and strategically, especially when interacting with immigrant buyers, non-Minangkabau speakers, or in situations that demand clarity of meaning and more formal politeness. The phenomenon of code switching and code mixing is found quite frequently and reflects the speaker's linguistic flexibility in adapting the language to the social context, communication goals, and characteristics of the opponent. These findings show that traditional markets not only function as a center of economic activity, but also as a social and cultural space that plays an important role in maintaining the sustainability and vitality of regional languages in the midst of social changes in urban society.
