Abstract

This study examines denotative and connotative diction in Indonesian textbooks for grade II primary schools under the Merdeka Curriculum. The main objective of this study is to assess how denotative and connotative word choice can affect the understanding of diction in primary school students' stories. Through the content analysis method, this study evaluated various stories in the textbook, focusing on word choice and its influence on teaching effectiveness. Denotative diction and connotative diction were chosen as the objects of analysis because of their critical role in helping students understand literal texts, which is the foundation for further learning at an early age. Increased consistency of diction use across all subject matter to support learning effectiveness at the primary level. It is hoped that these findings can be used as a reference for curriculum development and the preparation of better Indonesian language textbooks in the future, in accordance with the principles of Merdeka Curriculum which supports inclusive and comprehensive education. The conclusion of the study shows that the use of words with clear and unambiguous denotative meanings tends to make it easier for students to understand the concepts taught. Through connotative diction learners can develop analytical skills that are important in reading and understanding texts.

Abstract

Despite the growing focus on digital literacy training, there is still little empirical research combining ethnolinguistics with interactive digital storytelling in elementary school. To improve students' cultural literacy, this study proposes and assesses an innovative teaching strategy that integrates ethnolinguistic aspects of farming culture into interactive digital storytelling. Before being used in elementary classrooms, the digital media were created based on the needs analysis and verified by specialists using the design-based research framework ADDIE. Pre- and post-tests and instructor evaluations were used to gauge students' cultural literacy, and the results were analysed quantitatively using normality tests and the Wilcoxon test. The data reveal that the ethnolinguistic-based interactive storytelling greatly increased students’ grasp of local farming culture and their awareness of linguistic diversity, demonstrating meaningful learning gains following the intervention. Student and teacher responses also showed that the video is practical for elementary school students. These results add empirical evidence for the effectiveness of culturally grounded digital storytelling in primary school and show its potential for enhancing ethnolinguistics-informed literacy pedagogy and culturally responsive learning in multilingual contexts.
