Abstract

Vocabulary is the primary skill EFL students need to speak English fluently. It is not as simple as one may think of learning English vocabulary by simply recalling words"™ meanings and pronunciations; there are many other factors to consider as well, such as their usage and connotation. Therefore, this research aims to discover the difficulties English education students face in mastering English vocabulary during the online learning system and the factors underlying these difficulties. A descriptive design was used.   Questionnaires, observations, and interviews were used as data collection techniques. The data analysis techniques used were Likert-scale analysis for quantitative data and condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The results showed that students had linguistic difficulties, such as range, connotation, idiomaticity, length and complexity, pronunciation, grammar, and meaning. Based on these difficulties, there were linguistic and non-linguistic factors that underlie the challenges faced by students

Abstract

This study examined how Islam and Hinduism influence leadership practices in religion-based higher education institutions. Exploration studies were conducted in two areas, Tangerang and Bali. Eight participants were interviewed, including vice deans and heads of departments. The research findings revealed that cultural and spiritual values in leadership are deeply embedded in their character. The values, such as spirituality and trust, emerge as crucial essential traits within friendly relations. Likewise, leadership characteristics manifest in Hindu concepts that display religious values. Concepts such as Karmapala, Swadarma, and Karma Dharma Yoga strongly connect with Islamic values where being a leader is considered God's Trust (amanah) and fulfilling leadership responsibilities is considered an act of worship (Ibadah).

Abstract

Being the foundation block of a language, vocabulary mastery remains an interesting topic to be studied. Constant advancement in technology and shifts in pedagogy have warranted continuous updates in the understanding of vocabulary and vocabulary mastery. The present study aims to investigate the effect of TikTok on students’ English vocabulary mastery.  Using a quasi-experimental research design the present study compared the vocabulary mastery of two groups of students grouped into experimental and control groups with 34 students in each group.  The experimental group was taught using TikTok and the control group was taught using the conventional method. Multiple choice tests were used for pre-test and post-test. The resulting mean scores of both groups were compared and analyzed using T-test. Based on the statistical calculation with the significance level a = 0.05, it showed that t (66) = 3.749, p = <. The findings of the research indicated that there was a statistically significant difference in students’ English vocabulary mastery between students who were taught using TikTok and students who were taught using conventional method. It implies that TikTok is effective to be used as an instructional media to teach English vocabulary.

Abstract

The phenomenon of fatherlessness in Indonesia is an issue that cannot be ignored, considering the importance of the role of fathers in character formation, emotional well-being, and family economic stability. The figure of the father not only functions as a breadwinner, but also as an educator, role model, and the main supporter in the development of children. Active father involvement contributes to the child's psychological balance, preventing negative impacts such as low self-confidence, difficulties in building social relationships, and an increased risk of mental problems. In addition, the role of men in society also contributes to community strengthening and inclusive social development. This service activity aims to increase public awareness of the importance of the presence and involvement of fathers and men in family and social life. One form of implementation of this program is the organization of a letter writing competition for fathers as a medium of reflection and appreciation. This activity is expected to be able to build collective awareness about the importance of the father figure, strengthen emotional relationships in the family, and encourage the community to appreciate the role of men in various aspects of life. Thus, this activity contributes to building a culture of appreciation for the role of fathers and encourages the active participation of men in forming a more harmonious family and community.

Abstract

Speaking proficiency is a crucial component of English language learning, particularly for students preparing to become future English teachers. However, many learners face challenges in developing oral competence due to low confidence and limited self-efficacy. This study investigates the correlation between speaking self-efficacy and speaking skill among fourth-semester undergraduate students of the English Language Education Department (ELED) at I Gusti Bagus Sugriwa State Hindu University Denpasar. A total of 65 students participated as respondents. The research employed a quantitative correlational design, using a self-efficacy questionnaire to measure students’ beliefs about their speaking abilities and a speaking test to assess their oral performance. Data were analyzed using Pearson’s product-moment correlation. The findings revealed a statistically significant but low positive correlation (r = .302, p = .015) between speaking self-efficacy and speaking skill. This suggests that while self-efficacy contributes to speaking performance, it is not the only factor influencing students’ oral competence. Other variables such as motivation, anxiety, and exposure to authentic communication may also play an important role. The study concludes that fostering students’ speaking self-efficacy through supportive learning environments and communicative activities can enhance their speaking skills and better prepare them for their future roles as English teachers.

Abstract

Vocabulary mastery is a fundamental component of English language proficiency and an essential foundation for young learners. However, in Indonesian EYL classrooms, vocabulary instruction often remains teacher-centered and monotonous, leading to limited engagement and low achievement. This study investigated how Wordwall, a gamified digital platform, could be integrated within a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design to support vocabulary learning. Conducted with 22 fifth-grade students in a primary school, the research followed two CAR cycles, each consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection. Data were collected through vocabulary tests, classroom observations, and interviews. The findings indicated a steady improvement across cycles. The class mean score increased from 52.72 in the pre-cycle to 71.13 in Cycle I and reached 82.5 in Cycle II. By the end of Cycle II, all students met the Minimum Mastery Criteria (KKM), compared to only six students at baseline. Qualitative observations revealed that while initial use of Wordwall generated interest, uneven participation and low confidence persisted. Adjustments in Cycle II—particularly the incorporation of repetition and structured pair discussions—helped address these issues, resulting in more balanced participation and greater learner confidence. The study concludes that Wordwall can support vocabulary mastery when combined with pedagogical strategies such as recycling input and collaborative learning. These results provide practical guidance for EYL teachers in Indonesia, highlighting how gamified tools can be effectively adapted to classroom realities through iterative, reflective practice.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the form, function, meaning, and religious educational values of the Baris Jojor Dance performance during the piodalan ceremony at Pura Bale Agung, Desa Pakraman Sekardadi, Kintamani District, Bangli Regency. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method with a religious approach oriented toward phenomenological, theological, and socio-humanistic understanding. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using descriptive qualitative techniques. The findings reveal that the Baris Jojor Dance is a sacred performance (seni wali) traditionally presented in the Dewa Yajña ritual, performed by eight male dancers carrying long spears as symbols of warrior virtues. The functions of Baris Jojor encompass religious dimensions as sacred offerings, social functions as community solidarity, educational roles in character formation, and cultural significance as a medium of heritage transmission. Its meanings reflect the triumph of dharma over adharma, cosmic harmony, and spiritual communication between humans and the divine. The religious educational values embedded include tattwa (philosophy), susila (ethics), and upakara (ritual practice), along with cultural inheritance for younger generations. Thus, the Baris Jojor Dance contributes significantly to strengthening spirituality, morality, and cultural identity within Balinese Hindu society.

Abstract

This article explores the representation of Tri Hita Karana values in Roald Dahl’s The Witches. By focusing on the Pawongan values as the framework for building good relationships with other people, the present study follows the interactive qualitative data analysis from Miles, Huberman, and Saldana in conducting the simultaneous process of the data classification, data display, and conclusion drawing immediately after data collection to ensure trustworthy results. The analysis revealed that the novel includes curiosity, courage, intelligence, loving, and responsibility as the values that could build good relationships with other people, as guided by the Pawongan values in the Tri Hita Karana local wisdom. These findings imply that although Roald Dahl's novel The Witches is written in English by a British author and set in England and Norway, the novel poses a strong relevance for readers with a Balinese background, opening an opportunity to introduce local wisdom through world literature.
