Abstract

This research employs critical discourse analysis (CDA) to examine a news article titled "KPU Chief Rebuffs Allegations of Bias during VP Debate" from the Jakarta Post, focusing on the transition from print to online media or E-Paper. In this research, the two main methods used to collect data are documentation via the Jakarta Post e-paper news page and content review. This approach provides the advantage of exploring information in depth and comprehensively related to the phenomenon or event that is the focus of the research. Utilizing Teun A. van Dijk's CDA framework, the analysis encompasses macro, superstructure, and micro structures. The macro-structural analysis reveals the social and political context, identifying social groups and emphasizing narrative importance. The critical discourse superstructure analysis delves into linguistic patterns, representations of power, and strategic language use. Finally, the micro-structural analysis explores word choice, grammar, writing style, and sentence structure to understand how language constructs arguments and responds to accusations. Through these lenses, the study provides a comprehensive understanding of how the news shapes and reflects social and political dynamics, contributing valuable insights into media discourse surrounding political events in Indonesia.

Abstract

Kawasan ekowisata Bukit Lawang di Kabupaten Langkat menghadapi tantangan berupa rendahnya kapasitas komunikasi global pemuda setempat dalam melayani wisatawan mancanegara. Sebagian besar pemuda yang menggantungkan mata pencaharian pada sektor pariwisata belum menguasai kosakata bahasa Inggris bidang ekowisata dan masih memiliki tingkat kecemasan berbicara yang tinggi. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan meningkatkan keterampilan berbicara bahasa Inggris bidang ekowisata serta kepercayaan diri pemuda setempat melalui pembelajaran berbasis pengalaman. Evaluasi kegiatan menggunakan desain one-group pretest-posttest untuk mengukur perubahan kemampuan peserta sebelum dan sesudah pelatihan. Data dikumpulkan melalui tes kemampuan berbicara mengacu pada standar penilaian Eropa, kuesioner kepercayaan diri, lembar observasi, dan wawancara reflektif, kemudian dianalisis secara deskriptif kuantitatif dan kualitatif. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan performa komunikasi verbal peserta dengan kenaikan rata-rata sebesar 57,2%. Peningkatan tertinggi terjadi pada indikator penguasaan kosakata ekowisata sebesar 71,2% dan kelancaran berbicara sebesar 50,0%. Kegiatan ini menunjukkan bahwa pembelajaran berbasis pengalaman yang melibatkan interaksi langsung dengan wisatawan mancanegara efektif mengurangi kecemasan berbicara, meningkatkan kompetensi komunikasi bahasa Inggris secara kontekstual, serta mendukung pengembangan sumber daya manusia bagi pariwisata berkelanjutan di Bukit Lawang.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of teacher pedagogical competence on students' English listening skill with learning attitude as an intervening variable among Grade XI students of SMK Al-Maksum, Langkat Regency. The type of research used is quantitative associative using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method based on Partial Least Square (PLS) with the help of SmartPLS version 3.0 software. The population in this study includes all eleventh-grade students within the SMK Al-Maksum organization, totaling 53 students. Sampling applied a saturated sampling technique (census), so that all 53 population members were involved as active respondents. The results of direct effect hypothesis testing show that teacher pedagogical competence has a positive and significant effect on students' learning attitude (original sample = 0.895; T-statistics = 24.629; P-values = 0.000). Similarly, students' learning attitude recorded a strong positive and significant effect on students' listening skill (original sample = 1.187; T-statistics = 4.814; P-values = 0.000). Conversely, teacher pedagogical competence is proven to have a negative and non-significant direct effect on students' listening skill (original sample = -0.369; T-statistics = 1.358; P-values = 0.180). In mediation effect testing, students' learning attitude is significantly proven to act as a full mediator that bridges the influence of teacher pedagogical competence on students' listening skill (original sample = 1.062; T-statistics = 4.274; P-values = 0.000). The adjusted R-square values indicate that pedagogical competence accounts for 79.6% of the variance in learning attitude , while the model's capability to predict listening skill variance accounts for 75.3%, which falls into a strong category.  Keywords : Pedagogical Competence, Learning Attitude, Listening Skill

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to develop a digital storytelling product based on Indonesian cultural heritage (Nusantara) to enhance students’ learning independence in the context of Society 5.0. This study employed a research and development (R&D) design using the Borg and Gall model consists of: research and information gathering, planning, initial product development, initial field testing, product revision, main field testing, main product revision, operational field testing, final product revision, and dissemination and implementation. The product development process included expert validation (media, culture, and language), practicality testing by students, and effectiveness testing using a one-group pre-test and post-test design. The results showed that the product improved substantially after expert revisions, with validation scores increasing from below 60% to above 87%. The practicality test involving 25 students yielded an average practicality score of 82%, categorized as “good.” Effectiveness testing revealed a statistically significant improvement in students' learning independence, with a mean difference of 22.7 points (t = 9.85, p = 0.000) between pre-test and post-test scores.

Abstract

This study examined the relationships among self-efficacy, foreign language anxiety, speaking performance, and oral proficiency among EFL undergraduate students. A quantitative correlational design was employed involving 284 students from the English Education Study Programs at STKIP Al Maksum Langkat and Universitas Muhammadiyah Sumatera Utara (UMSU). Participants were selected using proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were collected through the English Speaking Self-Efficacy Scale, the Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS), and an oral speaking test. The instruments demonstrated satisfactory reliability, with Cronbach's alpha coefficients ranging from 0.89 to 0.95. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, multiple regression, and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with AMOS 28.0. The findings indicated that self-efficacy was positively associated with speaking performance (r = .684, p < .001), whereas foreign language anxiety was negatively associated with speaking performance (r = −.611, p < .001). Furthermore, self-efficacy positively predicted speaking performance (β = .51), while foreign language anxiety exerted a negative effect (β = −.37). Together, both variables explained 61.2% of the variance in speaking performance (R² = .612). The findings suggest that enhancing students' self-efficacy and reducing foreign language anxiety are essential for improving speaking performance and oral proficiency among EFL undergraduate students
