Explorative approach is employed to obtain premier data such as literature review, observation and interviews. From this exploratory study resulted a description of the values of local wisdom in the Witana Ward namely (1) Candra Sengkala Figure, (2) Bird Logo, (3) Four Pillars, (4) Sun Symbol, (5) Symbol Of Kamangmang Dragon, (6) Dewandaru Tree, (7) Witana Well, (8) Lotus and Flowers Wijayakusuma, (9) A Gate, and (10) Wadasan and Megamendung. The local wisdom values are in the form of philosophy of life, ethics and morals, literature and culture, and religious advices. The symbolic meaning of wadasan teaches that humans must be as strong as a reef, sturdy even in the storm. While the megamendung symbol symbolizes a shady soul giving coolness. The wisdom that we can understand from the megamendung wadasan is an ethical and moral message.

Abstract

Assertive communication is a communication style that enables individuals to express thoughts, feelings, and opinions openly, honestly, and confidently while respecting the rights of others. This study aims to describe how students of the English Language Education Study Program apply assertive communication in their everyday verbal and non-verbal interactions. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed. Data were collected through classroom observations and semi-structured interviews with four students. The research instrument was developed based on the assertive communication indicators proposed by Samfira (2020) and Yoshinaga and Cooper (2025), complemented by recent studies on assertive communication in language education (Ogunyemi Olagbaju, 2020; Hastuti Wijayanto, 2023). The verbal findings revealed that all participants consistently demonstrated openness, the use of “I” statements, respect for their own rights and those of others, non-aggressive firmness, and contextual appropriateness through empathic assertion. In contrast, the non-verbal findings showed greater variation, particularly in maintaining eye contact, with three participants displaying limited eye contact and one participant demonstrating it consistently. Triangulation of observation and interview data also identified discrepancies between self-perceived and actual communication behaviors, as well as individual differences in empathic assertion strategies. These findings contribute to understanding assertive communication development among prospective English teachers.
