Abstract

The analysis of the quality of the test items is very important because it will affect the results of the test itself. The problem is that teachers often do not analyze test items, so the test results do not accurately describe the potential of students. For this reason, this study aims to analyze the items on the semester final exam for social studies class VII. This type of research is a quantitative description. The research sample was the answer sheets of Class VII students from public middle schools, totaling 119 sheets. The research instrument consisted of end-of-semester exam question sheets, student answer sheets, and a scoring rubric. The research data was obtained from student answer sheets, which were collected after the semester final exams for social studies took place. The data analysis technique uses statistical analysis through the ITEMAN program. The results of the study place the validity and reliability of the instrument in the high category. The results of the analysis of the difficulty level of the items and the differential power showed that there was an imbalance in the composition of the test items. So it was concluded that the test questions for the end of semester exams for social studies subjects in junior high school needed to be reviewed. The results of this study are expected to have implications for teachers in making social studies test questions in the future as well as input for the government in making policies, especially in the field of education.

Abstract

The development of digital technology today has a major impact on various aspects of human life. In bridging intercultural communication, translation has a significant role that cannot be separated from the help of technology. Technology also has brought changes in the way translation is done, including helping individual translators to increase efficiency. For example, with the help of machine translation, Google Translate continues to develop transformers and AI. On the other hand, ChatGPT, built on artificial intelligence, allows translation. Both adopt NLP. This study aims to determine the quality of the translation of both based on the TQA proposed by House. In addition, it assesses the level of similarity of the translation results and errors that occur based on the translation technique used. Translation samples were selected based on purposive sampling techniques, namely from a report chapter available on the internet in English. The samples were translated into Indonesian using Google Translate (GT) and ChatGPT (CG) and then analyzed using TQA. The results show that GT and CG have high similarities and insignificant error rates. This is possible because GT and CG continue to be developed over time to respond to and translate languages that are increasingly natural and resemble human language.

Abstract

This study investigates translation errors found in 100 undergraduate thesis abstracts sourced from five Indonesian universities, with particular attention to syntactic, semantic, and miscellaneous error types. The data were collected from institutional online repositories, and all identifying information related to the authors was removed to ensure anonymity. Only the main bodies of the abstracts were used as the corpus for analysis. The findings reveal that the majority of errors fall under the syntactic category, including incorrect use of tenses, prepositions, and punctuation. Semantic errors, such as literal translations, meaning deviations, and unnecessary additions, were also frequently observed. These errors largely stem from students’ limited understanding of English grammar and translation strategies. The study highlights the importance of strengthening translation competence in undergraduate curricula. By systematically identifying and analyzing these common errors, the research provides valuable insights for improving the teaching of academic translation and suggests the integration of targeted translation materials in English language instruction at the tertiary level.

Abstract

This study presents a systematic literature review focusing on learning models, strategies, and the design of digital teaching materials in the context of education in the digital era. Drawing from 38 peer-reviewed articles published between 2018 and 2023, the research explores how digital technology has transformed pedagogical practices. The analysis reveals a strong emphasis on student-centered learning models, where students actively construct knowledge and develop problem-solving skills, rather than passively receiving information. Learning strategies such as problem-based, project-based, and research-based learning are widely promoted to foster critical thinking, creativity, communication, and collaboration. A key finding is the increasing adoption of blended learning, which combines face-to-face instruction with online platforms, thereby supporting more flexible and interactive educational experiences. However, the success of these strategies heavily depends on educators’ digital literacy, especially their competence in integrating technology with pedagogy and content. The design of digital teaching materials must also be aligned with learning objectives and students' needs. Effective materials incorporate diverse formats, such as infographics, videos, podcasts, and virtual labs, and are grounded in principles of relevance, consistency, and adequacy. The study concludes that digital pedagogy is becoming more widely implemented in Indonesia’s educational landscape. To ensure its effectiveness, educators must be equipped with adequate ICT skills, supported by proper infrastructure, and encouraged to collaborate with students for continuous improvement. With the right approach, digital technology can enhance educational outcomes, promote lifelong learning, and respond to the evolving needs of students in a technology-driven society

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a system that is developed and continues to innovate in various fields with the aim of making human work easier. As the name suggests, artificial intelligence is made to resemble human intelligence and is applied in various fields. Currently Artificial Intelligence technology is also used in the field of education, including teaching foreign languages. This article, which is based on a short field study, aims to find out student references regarding the use of Artificial Intelligence. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in English Language Teaching (ELT) can be seen as both a benefit and a potential threat, depending on how it is used and implemented. On the one hand, AI technology has the potential to make language learning more efficient and effective, by providing personalized feedback and practice exercises tailored to the different student’s needs and learning styles. The research method used to determine this phenomenon is a qualitative descriptive research method with questionnaire data collection techniques by asking questions that can be answered directly by respondents according to their respective answers. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to play an important role in helping students in various tasks in learning English, i.e finding out the the meaning and definition of words, translating sentences, improving grammar, etc with reliable and timely results. However, on the other hand, AI has an impact on student abilities. Students are increasingly dependent on AI assistance in learning, thereby reducing its role in critical thinking and using memory

Abstract

The use of technological devices has brought changes in learning methods and strategies in the last decade. This article aims to describe a general overview of what educators have done in dealing with learning in the digital era in the last five years. The method used in this study is a literature review, namely by examining the results of 38 reports about learning using digital technology published in journals and proceedings between 2018 and 2023. Based on the results, several important aspects regarding learning in the digital era were found, namely from the perspective of various learning activity results in the last five years. The findings of this study show that digital-based teaching is not just about optimizing technology or the internet in developing students' thinking potential but is also related to developing students' attitudes, behavior, and personality. Apart from that, collaboration between educators and students is also important to maximize the impact of technology on learning. With the right approach, technology can become a powerful tool in achieving educational goals and allows its use to be tailored to students' needs.
