In Suzanne Collins’s The Hunger Games there are two different classes in Panem social structure. The Capitol as a representative of the bourgeoisie and District 12 become representatives of the proletariat. The Capitol as the owner of the mode of production has wealth and power. It is make them able to do anything they want. While District 12 is the lower classes who do not have anything. They can only work for the bourgeoisie to survive. Based on that presumptively facts, problems arise along with questionings, which are delivered to two main questions of (1) How is social class depicted in Suzanne Collin’s The Hunger Games ?and (2) How does class struggle rise in Suzanne Collins’s The Hunger Games ? The used method must not get rid of hermeneutics, the approach is classified to pragmatics, while the technique scopes on the way of interpretations work on. As the result describes that different social class bring both parties engage in sustainable conflict. The proletariat as the powerless one was oppressed by bourgeois, they become object of exploitation. This raises their class consciousness. And lead to the emergence of the class struggle among them. Lastly, proletariat must unite in order to destroy their real enemy, capitalism, which was brought by the bourgeoisie. They have to abolish private property in order to establish classless society.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) in enhancing reading comprehension of English culinary texts among tenth-grade vocational culinary students at SMK Miftahul Ulum Solokuro. Employing a one-group pretest-posttest design, 28 students participated in four project-based sessions focused on understanding and applying English recipe texts. The results showed a statistically significant improvement, with average scores increasing from 48.5 (pre-test) to 83.68 (post-test). The paired-sample t-test revealed a p-value of 0.000, and the effect size measured by Cohen’s d was 3.74, indicating a very large effect. These findings highlight PjBL’s effectiveness in bridging the gap between academic English reading and real-world culinary practices. By contextualizing learning through projects, students not only improved their reading comprehension but also acquired essential skills for workplace readiness in the culinary industry

Abstract

Junior high school students are expected to create short essays, and concise texts, according to the junior high school curriculum. The issue is that students are unable to communicate their thoughts. It is proved that when the teacher asks the students to write about recount text or narrative text, they only write a few sentences, and they also make mistakes in using grammar patterns. This research aims to reveal the effect of picture series in teaching writing, and whether students who were taught through a picture series goa t better scores than those who were taught through the conventional method. This research used a quasi-experimental design. The finding showed that picture series could enable students to explore their ideas. The students were able to create and use their imagination to write well after watching the picture series. The result of the T-test analysis showed that the sig (2-tailed) was 0.000, which was lower than 0.05 level significance (0.000 < 0.05). It was assumed that the mean score difference between the experimental and control groups was significant. Thus, it was enough to reject the null hypothesis, which means that picture series-based E-learning significantly affected students’ writing, especially in writing narrative text.

Abstract

Abstrak: This research aims to investigate the effectiveness of animation video in improving students’ vocabulary achievement and to explore students’ responses toward the use of multimedia in vocabulary learning. The research employed a quasi-experimental design involving two eleventh-grade classes from a vocational school: the experimental class (TKJ), which was taught using animation videos, and the control class (TKR), which received conventional instruction. Richard Mayer’s Multimedia Learning Theory served as the theoretical foundation, emphasizing the cognitive benefits of combining verbal and visual elements. Data were collected through pre-tests, post-tests, and classroom observations. The results of the Mann-Whitney U Test revealed a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05, indicating a statistically significant difference between the two groups. Students in the experimental group scored higher and showed more positive responses toward the learning process. The Students were more motivated, engaged, and found vocabulary easier to understand through animation. In conclusion, the use of animation video not only improves vocabulary achievement significantly but also fosters a more interactive and engaging learning environment for vocational school students. Abstract: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyelidiki efektivitas video animasi dalam meningkatkan pencapaian kosakata siswa dan untuk mengeksplorasi tanggapan siswa terhadap penggunaan multimedia dalam pembelajaran kosakata. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain kuasi-eksperimental yang melibatkan dua kelas kelas sebelas dari sebuah sekolah kejuruan: kelas eksperimen (TKJ), yang diajar dengan menggunakan video animasi, dan kelas kontrol (TKR), yang menerima instruksi konvensional. Teori Pembelajaran Multimedia dari Richard Mayer menjadi landasan teori, yang menekankan pada manfaat kognitif dari penggabungan elemen verbal dan visual. Data dikumpulkan melalui pre-test, post-test, dan observasi kelas. Hasil dari Mann-Whitney U Test menunjukkan nilai signifikansi sebesar 0,000 < 0,05, yang menunjukkan perbedaan yang signifikan secara statistik antara kedua kelompok. Siswa dalam kelompok eksperimen mendapatkan nilai yang lebih tinggi dan menunjukkan respon yang lebih positif terhadap proses pembelajaran. Siswa lebih termotivasi, terlibat, dan menemukan kosakata yang lebih mudah dipahami melalui animasi. Kesimpulannya, penggunaan video animasi tidak hanya meningkatkan pencapaian kosakata secara signifikan, tetapi juga menumbuhkan lingkungan belajar yang lebih interaktif dan menarik bagi siswa sekolah kejuruan.

Abstract

This research aims to develop an Android-based educational application that uses a deep learning approach (meaningful, mindful, and joyful learning) to improve vocabulary and grammar learning in a more fun and impactful way, tailored to the needs of students in the modern era. The needs analysis results indicated that students equally require digital learning media with highly structured material and interactive exercises that are appealing. This research used a Research and Development design based on the ADDIE model. The process included conducting a needs analysis, designing the application, validating it with experts, and performing limited trials. A limited trial involving 34 students was conducted, and 86 per cent said that it was fairly straightforward to use, which indicated it was very easy for students to use. The average for the final in the pre-test was 64.03, but the post-test rose to 84.15, meaning that this media could improve students’ vocabulary mastery and grammar understanding. Therefore, this research provided a conceptual contribution to strengthening the relevance of the deep learning approach in the context of Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL), particularly in the development of Android-based media applications.
