Abstract

This research aims to develop a game-based learning application called Read Rangers, specifically to test the feasibility of the media and material aspects of the application. This application is implemented in helping deaf children's reading skills in class 5 of the Deaf Department of SLBN 1 Bantul, Yogyakarta. This study used a research and development approach adapted from Borg & Gall. The research stages began with (1) an initial study to explore the existing conditions of reading learning and the relevance of using technology in the context of inclusive education. (2) Application development based on the findings from the initial study, including the integration of Javanese traditional games and augmented reality technology to facilitate interactive learning. (3) Field testing of the app, involving evaluation by material experts, media experts, as well as individual testing by deaf children. (4) Revision of the app based on feedback from the field test to improve the quality and effectiveness of learning. The results showed that the Read Rangers app obtained valiation with a decent category and very good predicate from material and media experts, as well as positive responses from field testing. This application is considered very feasible and valid to be used to improve the reading skills of deaf children in accordance with the curriculum and learning outcomes set. The implication of this research is the potential of similar applications in supporting the education of deaf children.

Abstract

Communities living in megathrust-prone regions of Indonesia continue to face recurring seismic and hydrometeorological hazards, yet disaster communication often remains limited to technical or institutional channels. This gap leaves many rural populations dependent on cultural knowledge systems to interpret environmental uncertainty. The Cupu Panjala tradition in Padukuhan Mendak, Gunungkidul, represents one such indigenous mechanism, functioning as a ritualized narrative that encodes warnings, environmental memory, and moral regulation. This study aims to examine the Cupu Panjala tradition as a communicative system of local disaster awareness rather than a static myth or folklore. Using a qualitative approach grounded in discourse-pragmatic analysis, data were collected through oral narratives, ritual performances, and community interpretations associated with the Cupu Panjala ceremony. The analysis focuses on how narrative structures, symbolic references, and communicative intentions shape collective perceptions of natural hazards. Findings indicate that the symbolic messages within the Cupu Panjala tradition, such as references to red soil, elephants, or flowing water, serve as semiotic instruments that guide social behavior and environmental vigilance. These symbols are interpreted communally and transformed into collective awareness and preparedness actions, demonstrating that Cupu Panjala operates as a culture-based early warning system. The study concludes that the mythopoetic and pragmatic dimensions of Cupu Panjala actively reinforce social cohesion, ecological ethics, and psychological resilience. By framing disasters as communicative and moral events, the tradition contributes to community-based mitigation. Integrating such indigenous narrative systems into contemporary disaster communication can enhance culturally grounded preparedness and strengthen participatory risk management.
