Abstract

Students' ability to speak in English is a longing, but they face several obstacles to do this properly. One of the techniques that can be used to overcome the problem of speaking English is playing games, especially those related to speaking. Tongue Twister is one of the methods that can be used to improve students' pronunciation skills and their ability to speak English. Monotonous learning methods often make students bored and eventually do not have a high sense of interest in the lesson. Tongue twister can be one of the learning methods related to learning games; this method can make students feel less bored because they can learn while playing. In this study, the researcher wanted to explore more deeply how the perceptions and opinions of several students when they took part in the tongue twister challenge. The study involved 30 students at Klabat University enrolled in general English classes, who were randomly selected and who had participated in the tongue twister challenge. The results showed that almost 90% of the students were interested in this learning method.

Abstract

Technology is frequently utilized in modern classrooms to enrich the learning experience and facilitate diverse educational phenomena. In this age of technology, it is not uncommon to see technology used in almost every aspect of human life. Monotonous and old-fashioned teaching and learning activities make technology a fascinating aspect for teachers and even more so for students. Especially when technology is combined as an exciting and educational game that makes students feel a pleasant learning environment. DGBL (Digital Game-Based Learning) is a method that can be recommended to teachers. DGBL is a learning method that combines a fun learning method using games and technology. Students like technology especially when combined with games, which can excite them when learning. In this study, the researcher will explore how teachers from various subjects perceive using DGBL in their teaching and learning process. The quantitative data gathered from the respondents were analyzed through SPSS software. The findings indicate that teachers prefer using technological devices for better outcomes in the teaching and learning process. Teachers found that using game-based learning in their classrooms made students more engaged and motivated. This led to a better overall learning experience.

Abstract

This study investigated the correlation between students' use of metacognitive strategies and their English achievement in grade XI Science at SMA Advent UNKLAB. The study aimed to explore the level of metacognitive strategy use among students, assess their English achievement, and determined if there is a significant correlation between metacognitive strategy use and English achievement. The research employed a quantitative approach, utilizing descriptive and correlational methods. Data was collected through a questionnaire adapted from Bessai (2018) to measure metacognitive strategy use, and English mid-test results are used for academic achievement. The study includes 118 students from four different classes in grade XI Science. The findings revealed that students exhibit a high level of metacognitive strategy use, with a mean score of 3.71. Additionally, their English achievement is considered good, with an average score of 86. The Pearson correlation coefficient indicated a significant positive correlation (r = 0.374, p = 0.001) between students' metacognitive strategy use and their English achievement. In conclusion, this study recommended that teachers motivate students to use metacognitive strategies for learning English. Further investigations in different school environments and grade levels are suggested for a deeper understanding of this relationship.

Abstract

This study examines learners’ perceptions of utilizing social media platforms, including TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, as tools for acquiring English vocabulary. Recognizing that vocabulary is a key component of communicative competence, this research examines how informal, multimodal exposure through social media supports incidental vocabulary learning. A qualitative descriptive design was employed involving eight EFL students from a private university in Manado, Indonesia, who actively use social media for English learning. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed thematically to identify patterns in learners’ experiences, strategies, and challenges. Findings reveal that most learners prefer video-based content for its visual clarity, contextual richness, and entertainment value, which foster motivation and engagement. Learners employed a combination of strategies, including note-taking, translation, and pronunciation practice, to enhance word retention. Participants viewed social media as an effective and enjoyable platform for vocabulary acquisition; however, they also encountered difficulties with accent comprehension, word retention, and technical constraints. The study finds that social media is a good supplement to formal education because it helps students learn on their own and exposes them to real language. It recommends that teachers integrate social media-based activities into classroom tasks to support vocabulary enrichment. Future research could employ mixed-method or experimental designs to measure the actual impact of social media exposure on vocabulary development.

Abstract

Traditional musical instruments are an important component of intangible cultural heritage, yet many remain underrepresented in contemporary digital music production. In particular, Minahasan bamboo instruments face limited accessibility due to the lack of digital instrument representations. This study addresses this issue by developing a culturally informed Virtual Studio Technology (VST3) plugin that digitizes and simulates the characteristic sounds of Minahasan bamboo music. The proposed approach combines field recording, digital audio processing, and sample-based virtual instrument development using the JUCE framework. The resulting plugin was evaluated through functional, compatibility, performance, and cultural fidelity testing across multiple digital audio workstations. Experimental results demonstrate accurate MIDI-to-audio translation, low-latency performance, stable operation, and efficient CPU usage. User evaluations further confirm the authenticity of the sound and the usability of the interface. The findings indicate that VST-based digitization offers a practical and transferable solution for preserving traditional musical instruments while enabling their integration into modern music production workflows.

Abstract

This study examines the historical formation of ecotheological discourse in South Sulawesi by emphasizing the role of local wisdom rooted in the relationship between religion, humans, and nature, as well as its encounters with Abrahamic religions. Accordingly, the focus of this study is adat (customary traditions) and their dynamics within a historical context, including colonial understandings of local religions. The research employs a descriptive qualitative method with a literature review approach, supported by historical analysis to trace religious conceptions of the relationship between humans and nature. The findings show that local wisdom embedded in indigenous/ancestral religion systems plays an important role in shaping ethical relationships between humans and the natural environment, which later interacted with the theological frameworks of Abrahamic religions (such as Christianity). These interactions produced distinctive forms of discourse, reflecting both continuity and religious adaptation. Ultimately, this study affirms that ecotheology in South Sulawesi is not a new construct but a historically rooted discourse that remains relevant to the development of environmental ethics grounded in local cultural traditions.
