Abstract

The digital transformation in education has encouraged the adoption of innovative learning media, one of which is the use of educational games (edugames) in English language teaching. This study aims to explore secondary school students' perceptions of the use of digital edugames in English language learning. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed to gain an in-depth understanding of students' learning experiences through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation. Participants included eighth and ninth grade students from a secondary school in North Sumatra who actively used edugame applications such as Quizizz, Wordwall, and Kahoot during their learning activities.The findings reveal that students hold positive perceptions of edugames in terms of motivation, learning engagement, and content comprehension. Digital games were found to support vocabulary and grammar acquisition in a contextual and enjoyable environment. However, technical constraints such as device availability and internet access remain challenges in implementation. Students’ perceptions were also shaped by the role of teachers in designing and facilitating the use of edugames in a structured and pedagogically sound manner. Hence, digital edugames are considered effective when integrated systematically and interactively into instructional planning. This study highlights the importance of technology-integrated learning approaches and students' active involvement in selecting instructional media.

Abstract

Research on the translation of cultural terms in literary works still faces many obstacles, particularly when the source text contains cultural realia with no direct equivalent in the target language. This study aims to analyse the translation techniques used by three translators in rendering cultural terms and expressions in the novel The Old Man and the Sea, and to assess the quality of the translations in terms of accuracy, acceptability, and readability. The study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design, focusing on one source novel and three Indonesian translations. The research data included all cultural terms in the book, their translations, and quality assessments from six raters purposively selected. Data collection was conducted through document analysis, questionnaires, and focus group discussions, while data analysis followed the stages of domain analysis, taxonomy, component analysis, and cultural themes. The results show that the three translators utilised a combination of established equivalents, borrowing, generalisation, explicitation, paraphrasing, addition, omission, adaptation, and variation techniques, with differences in the intensity and combination of techniques used. These findings confirm that translation techniques influence how the source culture is represented in the target text and the quality of the resulting translation. Implicitly, this study provides a theoretical basis and practical guidelines for translators in handling cultural terms, while also opening up space for the development of translation technique models in cross-cultural literary studies.
