Abstract

This study investigates the integration of a gamified Word Wall in vocabulary instruction and examines students’ perceptions and engagement with this Word Wall. Conducted with ten students from the English Education Study Program at Universitas PGRI Delta Sidoarjo, the research employed a descriptive qualitative design. Data were gathered through observations, interviews, and field notes. The findings suggest that incorporating gamification elements such as points, challenges, and collaborative tasks enhanced students’ motivation, vocabulary retention, and active participation. Students engaged actively in group and individual activities, communicated effectively, and responded positively to learning challenges. Despite these benefits, the study identified challenges including limited instructional time and varying levels of student motivation. Some participants found the activities demanding, especially when balancing academic workloads. Overall, the use of the gamified Word Wall contributed to a positive, interactive, and student-centered learning environment. The study highlights the importance of considering learners’ individual differences and educational contexts to ensure the sustainability of gamified strategies. These insights offer practical implications for enhancing vocabulary learning through engaging, participatory methods.

Abstract

This study explores the use of deixis in Olivia Rodrigo's song "Happier." It examines how deixis constructs emotional meaning and narrative coherence through linguistic elements. The focus is on identifying and analyzing five types of deixis: person, temporal, spatial, social, and discourse. This analysis interprets how language operates pragmatically within the song. Using a qualitative descriptive method, the research applies Levinson's framework for a detailed textual analysis. The song was selected purposively due to its emotional depth and linguistic richness. The findings reveal that person deixis is the most dominant type. It reflects the narrator's shifting emotional position toward her ex-partner and his new relationship. Temporal deixis marks the emotional timeline of the breakup. Meanwhile, spatial deixis subtly conveys psychological distance. Social deixis uncovers power dynamics and feelings of inferiority. Discourse deixis helps maintain the coherence of the emotional narrative. Each type of deixis contributes to building a layered and affective discourse that enhances the song's emotional resonance. The study concludes that deixis functions not only as a grammatical tool but also as an expressive and narrative device in popular music. The song "Happier" exemplifies how deixis can encode emotional complexity. This makes it a useful medium for both linguistic analysis and language learning. The research recommends further studies on deixis in multiple songs to gain broader insights into its stylistic and pragmatic functions.

Abstract

This study identifies and analyzes the types of figurative language in Leony Jardine's poetry collection The Moon and Her Secrets, interpreting their contextual meanings through a pragmatic perspective. Employing a qualitative descriptive method and Keraf’s classification, the research reveals that metaphor is the most frequently used device, followed by simile, with limited occurrences of personification, allusion, eponym, epithet, hypallage, irony, satire, and innuendo. These figurative expressions serve not only as stylistic devices but also convey emotional, symbolic, and interpersonal meanings shaped by context and speaker intention. Through close reading and contextual analysis, this study demonstrates how figurative language acts as a pragmatic strategy in poetic communication, enhancing the reader’s emotional engagement and understanding of the text. The findings indicate that poetic language fulfills both aesthetic and communicative purposes in expressing complex human experiences.

Abstract

This community engagement project was conducted in Cendono Village, East Java, aiming to transform cow dung into charcoal briquettes as a sustainable energy solution. The main objective was to educate and empower local cattle farmers through a community-based research (CBR) approach. Activities included awareness sessions, training, and hands-on briquette production. Participants were taught the complete process, including drying, mixing, molding, and testing the briquettes. The trial phase showed that the briquettes produced optimal burning duration and sufficient heat output for household cooking. This initiative served as both a waste management strategy and an economic empowerment tool. Results demonstrated successful community adoption of the briquette-making process, improved awareness of sustainable practices, and the potential to generate supplementary income for rural families. Additionally, the initiative contributed to reducing unmanaged cow dung waste, thus preventing environmental and health issues. This program illustrates the potential of organic waste transformation into renewable energy sources. The experience is expected to inspire other rural communities to adopt similar environmentally friendly and economically beneficial practices.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of mothers as learning agents in Kepetingan Hamlet and to analyze the strategies and forms of empowerment activities they implement. Limited access to formal education caused by geographical, economic, social, and cultural factors has encouraged mothers in this area to take an active role by initiating and implementing community-based learning activities. This study employed a qualitative method using a community-based research approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation. The findings identify four main forms of mothers’ contributions: (1) the establishment of learning communities to expand children’s access to education, (2) the utilization of external support, including student community service programs, (3) effective time management in balancing domestic responsibilities and educational roles, and (4) creativity in utilizing local media as learning tools. These results indicate that mothers’ roles extend beyond that of learning companions to include functions as facilitators, innovators, and drivers of community-level learning activities. Such roles not only contribute to improving the quality of children’s learning but also promote women’s empowerment and strengthen social solidarity. Thus, mothers play a significant role in fostering educational self-reliance and transforming community-based societies.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the segmental phonological features found in the speech of Abele’s American English and Roger’s Singapore English as represented in the Clash of Champions program by Ruangguru. The study employs a descriptive qualitative approach and analyzes naturally occurring speech produced by two speakers featured in the program. The findings indicate that Roger’s speech, representing Singapore English, consistently demonstrates non-rhoticity, vowel centralization, shortened vowel duration, and diphthong reduction. In contrast, Abele’s speech, representing American English, consistently exhibits rhoticity, full diphthongization, and clear tense–lax vowel distinctions, aligning with General American English patterns. These segmental features appear systematically in spontaneous discourse, suggesting that accent-specific segmental phonological patterns are deeply internalized. This study contributes to the understanding of phonological variation within World Englishes by examining authentic spoken interaction rather than isolated speech samples.

Abstract

This research aimed to examine the perception and challenges of students to learn vocabulary through English pop songs. This study used a qualitative descriptive method using a sample of 8 students in the 7 semester of the English Education Study Program at PGRI Delta University which were collected by means of semi-structured interviews and analyzed by mapping respondents' answers on several themes. Research indicated that students who found English pop songs to be a fun and motivating medium because they could acquire vocabulary using lyrical repetition, but there were also some challenges such as fast tempo of songs with unclear pronunciation, unfamiliar accents that used slang and metaphor and distractions due to focusing more on music than words. It could be concluded that pop songs in English were a solution in learning vocabulary, but lecturers or teachers needed to guide appropriately and choose songs selectively so that they could be used optimally and minimize obstacles.

Abstract

Rendahnya penguasaan kosakata bahasa Inggris siswa kelas V SDN Bungurasih menjadi permasalahan utama dalam proses pembelajaran, ditandai dengan rata-rata kemampuan awal siswa yang hanya mampu menyebutkan sekitar tujuh kosakata. Kondisi ini dipengaruhi oleh penggunaan metode konvensional berbasis Lembar Kerja Siswa (LKS) yang kurang mendorong partisipasi aktif dan menimbulkan kebosanan. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk mengoptimalkan kompetensi kosakata melalui pendampingan pembelajaran berbasis fun learning. Metode pelaksanaan dilakukan melalui tiga tahap, yaitu observasi dan pre-test, penerapan pembelajaran interaktif (permainan edukatif, media visual-audiovisual berbasis YouTube, serta Game Comparative Adjective), dan evaluasi melalui post-test. Data dianalisis menggunakan teknik deskriptif komparatif untuk membandingkan hasil sebelum dan sesudah pendampingan. Hasil menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan pada aspek kognitif dan afektif. Secara kognitif, siswa mampu menambah kosakata serta menyusun kalimat deskriptif dan perbandingan sederhana dengan lebih tepat. Secara afektif, terjadi peningkatan motivasi, keaktifan, dan rasa percaya diri siswa. Pengabdian ini berkontribusi terhadap pengembangan praktik pembelajaran inovatif di sekolah dasar dengan menegaskan bahwa integrasi media interaktif dan pendekatan menyenangkan efektif mendukung pembelajaran bermakna (deep learning) dalam implementasi Kurikulum Merdeka

Kegiatan ini bertujuan meningkatkan keterampilan komunikasi layanan dalam Bahasa Inggris, memperkuat kepercayaan diri berbicara peserta, serta mendukung promosi usaha melalui konten digital berbahasa Inggris. Pendampingan dilaksanakan selama lima pertemuan dengan metode praktik langsung, role-play, simulasi pelayanan pelanggan, pendampingan pelafalan, serta pembuatan konten promosi digital. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan kemampuan berbicara peserta, terutama dalam penggunaan ungkapan layanan pelanggan, kelancaran komunikasi, dan kepercayaan diri saat simulasi pelayanan. Peserta juga mampu menghasilkan video promosi berbahasa Inggris yang diunggah melalui media sosial usaha sebagai bentuk implementasi keterampilan komunikasi digital. Program ini memberikan dampak positif terhadap kesiapan mitra dalam meningkatkan kualitas layanan dan memperluas jangkauan pelanggan. Keberlanjutan program dapat dilakukan melalui praktik komunikasi secara rutin, pengembangan konten digital secara bertahap, serta pembentukan mentor internal dari karyawan yang telah terlatih.
