Abstract

This study explored the cultural, symbolic, and spiritual significance of the Mandau, a traditional weapon deeply rooted in the heritage of the Dayak people in Kalimantan. More than a tool for hunting and self-defense, the Mandau represented profound values such as bravery, communal unity, and respect for ancestors. By employing qualitative descriptive methods combined with semantic analysis, the research investigated the intricate symbolic meanings behind each part of the Mandau. Data collection involved interviews with skilled Mandau craftsmen and respected cultural leaders, along with a thorough review of existing literature on the subject. The findings revealed that the Mandau held a central role in Dayak culture, symbolizing identity, protection, and spiritual connection. Additionally, the research demonstrated the Mandau's potential as a teaching medium in English language education, particularly in fostering contextual understanding and promoting cross-cultural awareness. This study underscored the value of incorporating local cultural elements into global educational frameworks, highlighting how culturally meaningful artifacts could serve as powerful tools for language learning and cultural exchange.

Abstract

The integration of the scientific approach into English Language Teaching (ELT) has played a transformative role in Indonesian education since the implementation of the 2013 Curriculum. This systematic literature review explores how the scientific approach aligns with student-centered learning principles and its pedagogical implications in the Indonesian ELT context from 2013 to 2025. A total of 52 peer-reviewed journal articles indexed in SINTA 1 to 3 and international databases were analyzed using the PRISMA model. The review focuses on the pedagogical strategies, learning outcomes, teacher readiness, and classroom practices associated with the scientific approach. Findings indicate that the scientific approach supports learner autonomy, critical thinking, and communicative competence when implemented with contextual sensitivity and adequate teacher training. However, various challenges persist, including misalignment in assessment, limited resources, and superficial understanding of scientific stages. The paper provides implications for curriculum designers, teacher educators, and policymakers to strengthen scientific pedagogy in Indonesian ELT

Abstract

This study explores the historical relationship between the Dayak Ngaju and Katingan languages through a comparative lexical and phonological analysis. A total of 225 word pairs were examined using lexicostatistical and historical phonology methods. Each pair was classified into one of three categories: cognates, likely cognates, and non-cognates. The findings show that 46.22% of the pairs are clear cognates, 22.22% are likely cognates, and 31.56% are non-cognates. In addition to lexical similarities, phonological processes such as apheresis, apocope, paragoge, and single phoneme differences were identified, further supporting their genealogical relationship. These patterns indicate that the two languages likely descend from a common proto-language within the Austronesian family. Core vocabulary items such as “water,” “dog,” and “bird” remain identical, reflecting lexical stability. The study not only affirms a strong linguistic connection between Ngaju and Katingan but also contributes to the preservation of regional languages by documenting their historical and structural ties.

Abstract

This paper examines Roald Dahl’s Lamb to the Slaughter using Vladimir Propp’s Morphology of the Folktale to uncover the underlying structural and character functions embedded within the narrative. Although classified as a modern domestic crime story, the tale aligns with traditional folktale structures through its sequence of narrative functions and character archetypes. By mapping Propp’s 31 functions and seven spheres of action onto the story’s events, this analysis reveals how these classical elements are preserved, inverted, or subverted to create irony and critique societal expectations, especially those surrounding gender and justice. Mary Maloney, the central character, structurally embodies the role of the “hero,” despite committing a crime, while other roles such as villain, helper, donor, and false hero are cleverly reassigned. The study also highlights how the narrative challenges the conventional notion of justice and authority, revealing the flexibility and relevance of Proppian theory when applied to modern literature. Ultimately, this research affirms the enduring utility of structuralist frameworks in revealing hidden ideological dimensions in contemporary storytelling.
