Abstract

This correlational study investigates the impact of folklore-implemented teaching on the integrated English language skills of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students. Embracing a holistic approach to language learning, the study explores the interconnected development of listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills when exposed to the immersive context of folklore narratives. The study employs a correlational research design to analyze the associations between folklore-implemented teaching and the enhancement of various language skills. Utilizing qualitative and quantitative data collection methods, including questionnaire, observations, and literature study, the research seeks to discern patterns and correlations that elucidate the potential benefits of integrating folklore into the EFL curriculum. The findings contribute valuable insights into the effectiveness of folklore-based instruction in cultivating not only linguistic proficiency but also cultural awareness among EFL learners, where from data processing, sig 0.039 < 0.05 means reject Ho, thus it can be understood that there is a significant correlation or relationship between the folklore-implemented and student English skills in integrated learning. The results may inform instructional practices and curriculum design, providing a foundation for the integration of folklore as a pedagogical tool to enhance the integrated language skills of EFL students. Ultimately, the study contributes to the ongoing discourse on innovative and culturally relevant approaches to language education, aiming to advance the quality and efficacy of English language instruction for diverse learner populations.

Abstract

This research explored the impact of Video-Based Learning (VBL) and Web-Based Learning (WBL) on enhancing the understanding of conditional sentences (Types 1, 2, and 3) among Grade 10 students at SMA UNKLAB Airmadidi. Employing a quasi-experimental design, 60 students were assigned to two groups: one received instruction via VBL, while the other was taught using WBL. Pre-test and post-test results were examined using IBM SPSS Version 26, with both paired-sample and independent-sample t-tests applied. The paired-sample t-test indicated notable improvement in both groups. The average score for the VBL group rose from 33.60 to 77.87, and for the WBL group from 33.20 to 59.73. The independent-sample t-test yielded a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.001, signifying a statistically significant difference between the groups. While both approaches were effective, VBL demonstrated a more substantial effect on students' grammar proficiency. Additionally, analysis showed no significant difference in performance based on gender, suggesting that both teaching methods were equally effective for male and female students. Overall, the findings underscore the advantages of incorporating digital media in grammar instruction, with VBL particularly enhancing student engagement and understanding of complex grammar topics. This study affirms the value of multimedia in English teaching and highlights the potential of visual and interactive content to boost learner motivation and success.

Abstract

Feminism is an enduring social issue, persisting from ancient times to the present. The struggles of early feminists resonate today, with patriarchy still evident in modern media, such as Greta Gerwig's adaptation of Little Women. This research examines how Little Women portrays the social issues of feminism, focusing on the experiences of the main character. Utilizing Sugihastuti's feminist approach, which defines feminism as a movement advocating for equality between men and women across political, economic, educational, and social spheres, the study explores the film's depiction of these themes. Additionally, Betty Friedan's feminist theory is employed to delve deeper into the feminist issues presented. The findings highlight several key feminist themes, including the societal expectation that women must marry to secure their future, the notion that women's roles are confined to homemaking, and the resistance to these norms by characters who choose their paths. The film illustrates the tension between traditional expectations and the characters' desires for independence, revealing the complexities of feminism and its relevance in contemporary society. Through this analysis, the research underscores how Little Women reflects ongoing feminist struggles and challenges the persistent patriarchal norms, offering a nuanced portrayal of women's autonomy and empowerment

Abstract

The Minahasan community of North Sulawesi, Indonesia has witnessed a significant shift in women's roles and empowerment in recent years. This study examined the economic and social/political empowerment of Minahasan women, including their participation in income-generating activities, entrepreneurship, community leadership, and advocacy for rights and representation. However, this empowerment has also brought about challenges as Minahasan women grapple with the double burden of balancing their newly acquired roles with traditional domestic responsibilities of childcare and household duties. Through a comprehensive library research approach, this study analyzed the tensions and role conflicts experienced by Minahasan women as they navigated the contrasting societal expectations. Key findings revealed the strain on family dynamics, potential neglect of children's upbringing, and marital relationship challenges arising from the double burden. The study also identified strategies and best practices for reconciling these contrasting roles, such as promoting equitable domestic workload sharing, establishing childcare support systems, advocating for flexible work arrangements, and fostering societal attitude changes towards gender norms. Ultimately, this research highlights the importance of addressing the double burden challenges faced by Minahasan women to ensure their empowerment is sustainable and does not come at the cost of sacrificing traditional caregiving responsibilities or family well-being.
