Abstract

This study explores the perceived role of English in maritime education at the Merchant Marine Polytechnic of Barombong, specifically questioning whether Maritime English is treated as a core or supplementary subject. Employing a quantitative approach, data were collected through a structured questionnaire administered to 100 cadets. The findings reveal a strong consensus among cadets regarding the importance of English in enhancing communication skills, building professional confidence, and supporting future career opportunities in the global maritime industry. Despite this, Maritime English remains marginalized within the curriculum, often taught separately from technical subjects and allocated minimal instructional time. The study identifies a significant gap between cadets’ linguistic needs and the current pedagogical approach. The results also align with similar local research in Indonesia, indicating a national trend of underemphasizing Maritime English in seafaring education. This research concludes with a recommendation to reposition Maritime English as a main course integrated into practical and technical maritime training to better prepare cadets for international standards and global work environments.

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
