Abstract

Language plays an important role in the formation of individual and group identities in educational settings. This research aims to understand how language influences student identity from cultural, social, academic and digital perspectives. Using a qualitative approach and case study design, data was collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation and document analysis. The research subjects included 30 informants from three schools with diverse cultural and social backgrounds. The results show that local languages strengthen students' cultural identity, despite being pressured by the dominance of national and foreign languages due to globalization. In the social context, language functions as a tool for status negotiation and group dynamics. Teaching foreign languages, such as English, increases students' global competence but risks reducing appreciation for local languages. In the digital age, language use on social media reflects students' creative identities but often clashes with formal language norms in schools. This research emphasizes the importance of a balanced language education policy to support global language acquisition while preserving local languages. With this approach, education can help students build an inclusive identity, integrate local values in a global context, and strengthen their cultural connections holistically.

Abstract

The development of digital technology has brought significant changes to the world of education, one of which is through mobile learning (mlearning). Mlearning allows learning to take place flexibly, overcome the limitations of space and time, and is adjusted to the individual's learning rhythm. In Indonesia, the adoption of mlearning is increasingly relevant after the COVID19 pandemic, with smartphones as the main device used. Based on APJII data (2023), more than 70% of internet users in Indonesia access the internet via smartphones, showing the great potential of mlearning for the future of education. However, the implementation of mlearning faces challenges such as the gap in access to technology and low digital literacy. Mlearning also encourages a personalized learning paradigm, where students can access materials that suit their needs and learning styles. AI-based applications, microlearning, and gamification make it easier to create a contextual and adaptive learning experience. However, the challenges of managing the quality of materials and equitable access need to be overcome. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach through a literature study to understand the development of mlearning and its challenges. It is hoped that the integration of this technology can support more inclusive and sustainable education, with an important role for education policies, teacher training, and increasing digital literacy among students.
