Abstract

The increasing presence of Generation Z (Gen Z) in the workforce has necessitated a shift in leadership strategies to effectively engage and inspire this digital-native generation. Gen Z employees prioritize autonomy, technological integration, and purpose-driven work, which challenges traditional leadership models. This study explores the most effective leadership approaches for managing Gen Z, focusing on transformational, laissez-faire, and participative leadership styles. The research employs a literature review methodology, synthesizing existing studies on leadership theories, workplace behaviors, and generational expectations. Findings indicate that Gen Z employees thrive in flexible, digitally connected, and ethically conscious work environments. Transformational leadership, which emphasizes mentorship and motivation, proves particularly effective, while laissez-faire leadership supports their need for independence. However, a balanced approach is necessary, as Gen Z also requires structured feedback and career development opportunities. The study concludes that organizations must adopt adaptive, technology-driven, and value-oriented leadership models to attract and retain Gen Z employees. Leaders who embrace digital tools, corporate social responsibility, and continuous learning will create a dynamic and motivated workforce that fosters innovation and long-term success.

Abstract

This study investigates English course teachers' perspectives on the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) tools, specifically ChatGPT, in English Language Teaching (ELT) within the informal education sector in Medan, Indonesia. Employing a qualitative approach, data were collected from 17 teachers through questionnaires to explore their experiences, perceived benefits, and challenges associated with AI integration. The findings reveal that 64.29% of teachers recognized AI's potential to streamline lesson planning and generate ideas, while 42.86% appreciated its ability to personalize instruction. Additionally, 14.29% highlighted its role in enhancing language skill practice. However, significant concerns emerged, with 50% of teachers fearing reduced teacher-student interaction and 42.86% worrying about AI undermining traditional teaching values. Ethical issues, including potential bias (14.29%) and misinformation (7.14%), were also noted. The study concludes that while AI offers transformative opportunities in ELT, its integration must be supported by teacher training, resource allocation, and a balanced approach to preserve human-centered teaching principles. These findings provide valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and researchers aiming to harness the potential of AI in language education.

Abstract

The challenges brought by Covid-19 have threatened not only the economy and health fields but also the educational sectors. In light of education, this issue has led to the swift migration of the learning process from conventional mode to online learning which has resulted in another bottleneck. The current study explores the perception of EFL Indonesian college students about the challenges and benefits of learning speaking through the online system during the Covid-19 outbreak. Forty-five college students participated in this study and were inquired through a semi-structured questionnaire in the weeks following the final term examinations for the academic year 2020-2021. The data was probed by using grounded theory proposed by Creswell. The findings exposed that effectiveness, online benefits, and improvement opportunities were the benefits obtained by students from the online learning. Meanwhile, distraction and information overload, a technical error in online learning technology and internet connectivity matters as well as limited interaction and inadequate support were hindrances that often hampered the students.  Consequently, this scholarly paper also provides advice on the essence of the readiness of adequate facilities and the collaboration from stakeholders; government, teachers, students, and parents to successfully implement online learning.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan aplikasi yang dapat menyembunyikan pesan teks dalam gambar dengan menggunakan teknik steganografi. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Least Significant Bit (LSB) untuk menyisipkan pesan ke dalam piksel gambar, serta metode ROT13 untuk mengenkripsi pesan sebelum disisipkan. Dengan menggunakan kedua metode ini, diharapkan pesan yang disembunyikan dapat terlindungi dari pihak yang tidak berwenang. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa aplikasi yang dikembangkan mampu menyimpan dan mengambil pesan dengan baik, serta memberikan tingkat keamanan yang lebih tinggi terhadap informasi yang disimpan. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan kontribusi dalam bidang kriptografi dan steganografi, serta menjadi referensi bagi penelitian selanjutnya.
