Abstract

Listening comprehension is often overshadowed by reading- and writing-centered instruction in junior high English classes, limiting opportunities for learners to develop real-world communication skills. Addressing this gap, the present qualitative study explores how narrative text–based internet second-language collective video quizzes shape student interest and, in turn, enhance listening assessment. Guided by Krapp’s Person-Object Theory of Interest, the research examined 20 Indonesian junior teenagers enrolled in an extracurricular conversation course. Data were gathered through a structured questionnaire and follow-up semi-structured interviews with five focal students. Questionnaire items were mapped onto the emotional, value-related, and cognitive dimensions of interest, while interview transcripts provided nuanced insight into learners’ experiences. Findings reveal robust engagement across all three dimensions: 85 % of students reported positive emotions such as enjoyment and excitement, 80 % perceived the activity as personally valuable for real-life English use, and 90 % demonstrated heightened cognitive involvement, including curiosity, prediction, and vocabulary acquisition. Interview data corroborated these patterns, highlighting the motivational power of storylines, visual cues, and immediate feedback embedded in the quizzes. Collectively, the results indicate that narrative video quizzes are not merely attractive add-ons but effective, interest-driven tools for assessing and fostering listening skills in adolescent EFL contexts. The study recommends integrating similar multimedia, story-rich assessments to create learner-centered, low-anxiety listening environments.

Abstract

This study investigates the use of metaphorical euphemisms in Instagram comments related to Anies Baswedan, a prominent figure in Indonesian politics. The aim is to analyze how netizens use euphemisms to navigate sensitive political discourse in a digital context. Metaphorical euphemisms, defined as expressions that soften or reframe controversial or harsh topics, play a significant role in managing political expression. The research uses a qualitative content analysis approach to examine 15 Instagram comments, categorizing euphemisms into three types: analogy, distortion, and borrowing (Allan & Burridge, 2020). The findings reveal that distortion euphemisms were most common (46.67%), followed by analogy euphemisms (40%) and borrowing euphemisms (13.33%). Distortion euphemisms often reframed negative political situations in a more acceptable or humorous light, while analogy euphemisms employed vivid comparisons to communicate complex ideas in a relatable manner. Borrowing euphemisms utilized terms from other contexts to soften their meaning. The study emphasizes the importance of these linguistic strategies in fostering constructive dialogue while mitigating conflict in politically polarized environments. The findings contribute to understanding how euphemisms function in digital political communication, revealing the creativity of netizens in expressing their views. This research offers insights into the role of language in shaping public opinion and engagement in the digital age.
