Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of Latin alphabet usage on the vocabulary writing skills and science understanding of Thai Malay among Mattaeom 1 students at Ban Padungmat School, Thailand. A qualitative descriptive method was employed using participatory observation and documentation techniques on 25 students. The findings reveal that students face significant challenges in writing vocabulary due to differences in graphemic and phonological systems between the Latin alphabet and Thai script. Three dominant types of errors were identified: graphemic errors (72%), phonological errors (80%), and mixed usage of Latin and Thai characters (60%). These errors are influenced by negative transfer from the mother tongue and low adaptation to the Latin script. The study emphasizes the need for a contextual and phonetic-based learning approach in teaching the Latin alphabet to bilingual students. It recommends more intensive phonological and graphemic training to enhance vocabulary writing accuracy in Thai Malay.

Abstract

This ability is not only important for academic success, but also essential for students to face complex problems in everyday life. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the Giving Question and Getting Answer model in improving students' critical thinking skills. The research design used a posttest-only control group design experiment. The research instrument was a critical thinking ability test that included the dimensions of analysis, evaluation, and problem solving. Data were analyzed using a t-test to compare the average posttest results of the two groups. The results of this study are that the use of the Giving Question and Getting Answer (GQGA) model has proven effective in improving students' critical thinking skills. The GQGA model is suitable for implementation at the elementary school level because it is in accordance with the needs of students to learn through interactions involving cognitive and social aspects. With the right approach, this model is able to overcome the limitations of traditional learning methods that do not support the development of students' critical thinking skills.

Abstract

This study examines the use of speech acts by Indonesian adolescents in digital communication, particularly through comments on social media platforms such as Instagram and TikTok. The study aims to identify the types of speech acts commonly used, examine how the digital context influences the forms and strategies of these utterances, and explore the socio-cultural meanings embedded in these interactions. A qualitative descriptive method was used with data collected from 150 naturalistic comments made by adolescents aged 13–19. The analysis was conducted using Searle's speech act theory, focusing on contextual categorization and interpretation. The findings indicate that representative and expressive speech acts are the most frequently used, followed by directive, commissive, and declarative speech acts. The digital environment shapes linguistic expression through unique features such as emoticons, informal spelling, and visual-emotional reinforcers. These linguistic choices are influenced by the immediate, informal, and performative nature of online interactions. The results also indicate that speech acts on social media reflect adolescents' construction of identity, group affiliation, and shared cultural norms in the digital space. This study concludes that social media serves not only as a communication tool but also as a platform for socio-cultural expression among adolescents. Further studies could explore variations in usage across platforms or different demographic groups.

Abstract

The aims of this research were to analyze the impact of southern Thai Malay on the study of English pronunciation, especially the final consonant sounds. To make the analysis, the researcher used a qualitative method involving 15 students at Ban Kalisa School, Thailand, and data collected by observation, in-depth interviews, and pronunciation tests.  Based on the results related to pronunciation made by 15 students, it can be concluded that there are 1 student pronounced sound [æ] as [a], 1 student pronounced [ʌ] as [u], 3 students pronounced [æ] as [e] and 1 student pronounced [o] as [ʌ]. While in consonant sounds, there are 10 subjects pronounced palate alveolar fricative [ʃ] changed into sound [s, t] or alveolar fricative. 3 students pronounce [ð] with [t], there are 2 students with substitution and 5 students with omission. The students also still have a minor vocabulary in responding to the English questions in an interview. They only knew how to answer the question that related to their identity but had difficulties in responding to the other questions. This research, it is hopefully can be useful to the development of students’ English ability, especially in pronouncing words as one of the indicators of English proficiency.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze student perceptions of the implementation of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) method in learning Religious Education. This study used a descriptive method with a qualitative approach, involving 80 students at Muhammadiyah Mataram University. Data were collected through a Likert scale questionnaire consisting of 50 statements, then analyzed using descriptive statistics to describe students' perceptions of the implementation of PBL. The results showed that the majority of students responded positively to this method, stating that PBL improved their understanding of religious concepts, connected religious values with daily life, and encouraged active involvement in learning. In addition, PBL is also proven to improve critical thinking skills, cooperation in group discussions, and provide a more meaningful learning experience. However, some challenges are still faced, such as limited relevant references, lack of supporting facilities, and the need for additional guidance from lecturers so that this method can be applied optimally. In addition, students emphasized the importance of real case studies in PBL to increase the relevance of learning. Therefore, support from educational institutions is needed in providing learning resources, improving learning facilities, and more structured teaching strategies. Future research is suggested to explore more flexible and effective PBL implementation strategies, as well as comparing the effectiveness of PBL with other learning methods in order to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the contribution of PBL in learning Religious Education.

Abstract

This research explores the implementation and management of the teaching factory (TEFA) models at Vocational High School (SMK) St. Mikael, Surakarta, Indonesia. The research focuses on the management of production units owned by the school and how the school collaborated in industrial cooperation with relevant enterprises. A qualitative approach with a case study method was employed, collecting data through documentation, interviews, and observation. The findings reveal that the teaching factory is implemented through block schedules and job sheets to enhance student skills, with professional management of the production unit. Additionally, the industrial cooperation bridged by the school and its business partners has involved apprenticeships, product marketing, worker deployment, and industrial work visits. Among these four programs, apprenticeships are believed to be the most effective in enhancing students' vocational competencies. Implementing the TEFA model has assisted the school in equipping its students with competencies aligned with the industrial demands for qualified and competent workers. The study suggests that other vocational schools implementing TEFA might consider managing their production unit by employing block schedules and job sheets in the production unit, and building industrial partnerships to address the demand of the current industry trends.
