Abstract

Ecofeminism is an understanding of the relationship between women and the universe that approaches issues of environmental degradation and social injustice from the premise that how we treat nature and how we treat each other are inseparable. This research discusses the character of a woman in the novel How Beautiful We Were which aims to find out the depiction of the struggle of African women in protecting their environment. This research uses the theory of ecofeminism from Greta Gaard and Murphy with descriptive qualitative research methods and note- taking as an instrument. This research was conducted to add and give awareness to readers about the importance of preserving and protecting the environment around us. The results found in this novel that the female character named Thula fulfills the three aspects of women's struggle in the theory of ecofeminism. The researcher concluded that in this novel, the most visible struggle of women leads to the community, so that the movement carried out by the main character is able to realize that it is important to fight for and protect our nature from the threat of companies that come to destroy it

Abstract

This research explores the processes and underlying factors that lead to culture shock in the main character of the movie Queen (2014), employing Sverre Lysgaard's U-curve theory as the analytical framework. The U-curve model outlines various stages of adaptation that individuals undergo when exposed to a new culture. Through this lens, the study identifies six key phases experienced by the protagonist: before departure, arrival (Honeymoon), the onset of culture shock, feelings of discomfort and unhappiness, gradual adjustment, and eventual completion of the adaptation process. The analysis reveals that the main factors contributing to the character's culture shock include significant differences in cultural norms, unfamiliar food, lifestyle changes, and language barriers. Each of these elements presents unique challenges, which the character must navigate as she transitions into her new environment. This research not only highlights the emotional and psychological shifts during the adaptation process but also underscores the broader impact of intercultural encounters, offering a nuanced understanding of how cultural differences influence personal growth and adaptation in unfamiliar settings.

Abstract

This study explores the expressions of love in children's poems before and after the year 2000. Seeing the differences in the characteristics of the generation of children before and after 2000, this study aims to find out the children's love expressions to their parents through imagery used in poems as a reflection of Birrul Walidain. This research applies the technique analysis from Miles and Huberman, started with data reduction and presentation to finally come to one conclusion. Furthermore, the result of this research found that there is a distinction between love expressions in two different eras. During the era before 2000, the children expressed their gratitude primarily to their parents for their direct emotional bonding. Furthermore, during the era after 2000, the children tended to deliver their hope and pray for their parents, which portrays that the children missed the direct physical connection with their parents because there are almost no narratives that indicated the use of a physical indicator of imagery; however, they still expressed their loves by writing their wishes in their poems.

Abstract

The present study aims to examine the current practices, constraints, and potential enablers when assessing students' listening skills in Indonesian Islamic higher education EFL classrooms. This study used a qualitative approach with a case study research design. The selection of the participants used purposive sampling. The study used interviews as a data gathering technique, involving six EFL lecturers in one Indonesian Islamic higher education institution in South Sulawesi. The findings show participants’ awareness of the various alternative methods to assess students’ listening skills. However, their discussions tend to focus on what is easiest to use as opposed to what matters most for students’ listening skills. Furthermore, participants’ descriptions of EFL lecturers’ constraints in assessing listening skills encompass various educational aspects, which could be classified into resources and practical constraints. The former includes a lack of representative language laboratories and learning resources for conducting quality listening assessment practices. The latter relates to time constraints, auditory surroundings, and designing and developing listening assessment instruments. Therefore, the participants raised several key strategies to enhance quality listening assessment practices, ranging from resources to practical strategies. This includes a high quality and sufficient quantity of educational resources, the use of diverse and authentic assessment tasks, and more collaborative work to share best practices and experience in conducting quality listening assessment practices. These findings imply the need for reformulation of existing practices and policies related to foreign language assessment that could have significant impacts on EFL students, teachers, and classrooms.

Abstract

This research discusses the otherness concept in Hotel Transylvania film. It is an animation movie that tells about the conflict between human with monster, in which the main character Dracula as a monster had a terrible memory with the human that makes him isolated himself and all monsters from humans’ intervention. The research aims to deconstruct how the otherness concept appeared in the film's manuscript. This research uses the content analysis method. In analyzing the data, the researchers use the deconstruction theory from Jacques Derrida to reveal the concept of otherness, which is the primary purpose of this research. Furthermore, this research focuses on the characters who brought the concept of otherness through their dialogue. As a result of this research, the researchers find that both humans and monsters are projecting each other's identity based on their perspective. The implication of this research is to give understanding to readers how the otherness concept is close to our daily life, and even we do not realize it has frequently happened.

Abstract

This study examines the role of mother–child memory in shaping children’s intelligence as portrayed in the film Enola Holmes (2020). Grounded in Howard Gardner’s theory of Multiple Intelligences, the research highlights how maternal memories function as a foundation for cognitive, interpersonal, and intrapersonal development. Using a qualitative content analysis approach, selected scenes involving Enola Holmes and her mother, Eudoria, were analyzed through dialogue, flashbacks, and visual codes. The findings reveal that maternal memory is not merely nostalgic, but a narrative mechanism of intellectual and emotional inheritance. Cognitively, Enola’s recollections of logic training, puzzles, and cryptographic exercises enhance her critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Interpersonally, her memories of maternal advice to empathize and understand others guide her in building trust and collaboration. Intrapersonally, memories of maternal love and encouragement foster Enola’s resilience, autonomy, and self-awareness in resisting patriarchal constraints. This research contributes to literary and film studies by demonstrating how mother–child memory functions as a transgenerational medium of intelligence formation
