Abstract

Adaptation studies are interesting in discussing literary works and films. It is because adapting a scholarly work, like a novel or play, for the big screen is extremely difficult and requires a high level of ability. One of the literary works adapted into a film is the novel Twilight, by Stephanie Meyer. In the adaptation of the novel to the Twilight film, there are many reductions of the story, and additional scenes that are not in the novel. By using the theories of adaptation, feminism, and masculinity, this study analyzes the changes in the theme of feminism in the novel to masculinity in the film, caused by differences in ideas between the novelist and the filmmaker. By applying the comparative method, this study aims to compare the changes in the notion of ​​feminism in the Twilight novel with the idea of ​​masculinity in its film adaptation, and to reveal the motives behind it. The analysis shows that the Twilight film adaptation strategically shifts the feminist themes in the novel version by centering on traditional masculinity, a deliberate choice to appeal to its target audience, particularly teenage girls.

Abstract

Indonesian language learning at the elementary school level faces challenges in engaging students and improving learning outcomes. This study aims to enhance Indonesian language learning outcomes in fourth-grade students at SD Lafau Fadorozai through the implementation of the STAD (Student Teams-Achievement Divisions) cooperative learning model. The study adopts a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design involving a single class as the research subject. Data were collected through observations, learning outcome tests, and questionnaires on student response. The implementation of the STAD cooperative learning model was conducted two cycles, focusing on Indonesian language learning. The research results indicate a significant improvement in students' learning outcomes with average score after the application of the STAD model, as evidenced by an increase in The average post-test score (Mean = X) was significantly higher than the average pre-test score (Mean = Y), with a significant difference (p < 0.05) on learning outcome tests and positive student responses toward cooperative learning. The pre-test score was 63.47 and the post-test 66.53 the increase was 4.82%.  These findings suggest that the STAD cooperative learning model is an effective strategy for improving Indonesian language learning outcomes at the elementary school level. This study underscores the importance of cooperative learning models in enhancing the quality of Indonesian language education at the elementary school level.

Abstract

This systematic literature review examines the effectiveness of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) e-modules in developing students' 21st-century skills by synthesizing ten Scopus-indexed empirical studies published between 2015 and 2025. Motivated by the growing demand for student-centered and technology-integrated learning, this review aims to consolidate evidence on how PBL-oriented digital modules support key competencies. Following the PRISMA guidelines, the study employed a transparent selection process and combined thematic synthesis with bibliometric analysis (VOSviewer) to identify research trends, dominant themes, and learning outcomes. The findings indicate that PBL e-modules consistently enhance critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and creativity, with the strongest effects reported in critical thinking and collaborative performance. Student motivation and autonomy emerged as important mediating factors, while variations in instructional design and digital platform quality influenced effectiveness across contexts. These results imply that well-structured PBL design and purposeful digital integration are critical for maximizing the impact of e-modules on 21st-century skills, while also highlighting methodological gaps for future research.

Abstract

Sebagai salah satu kemampuan berbahasa yang paling menonjol, kemampuan berbicara percakapan bahasa Inggris sederhana menjadi fokus utama kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat yang telah kami laksanakan. Kegiatan pengabdian pada artikel kali ini berjudul Pembelajaran Percakapan Sederhana untuk anak pengajian Al-Quran di Masjid Al Basyariah. Dengan demikian, subjek pembelajaran pada kegiatan ini bukanlah orang dewasa melainkan anak-anak berusia 8-10 tahun. Berbekal pengalaman belajar bahasa Inggris yang sangat minim dan usia siswa yang masih sangat dini, kegiatan pengabdian ini menjadi tantangan menarik bagi pelaksana kegiatan. Kegiatan ini bertujuan untuk memberikan pengetahuan minimal tentang bahasa Inggris sekaligus meletakkan landasan yang kuat sebagai titik awal pembelajaran bahasa Inggris yang lebih lengkap dan kompleks. Kegiatan pembelajaran yang hanya berlangsung sebanyak 14 kali pertemuan tatap muka ini memenuhi sejumlah 8 tema pokok percakapan yang dipadukan dalam berbagai kegiatan antara lain latihan berbicara dan evaluasi pembelajaran. Kegiatan ini mendapat sambutan baik dari pengurus masjid dan orang tua santri yang belajar. Oleh karena itu, disarankan agar kegiatan ini dapat dilaksanakan kembali pada semester berikutnya.

Abstract

Program pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan penguasaan kosakata bahasa Inggris bagi tutor yang mengajar siswa Sekolah Dasar (SD) dan Sekolah Menengah Pertama (SMP) di komunitas Kampung Bojong melalui penggunaan media visual dan interaktif. Lembaga pendidikan nonformal, Lembaga Sosial Gerakan Masyarakat Peduli (LSGMP), menghadapi tantangan berupa keterbatasan sumber daya pengajaran dan metode pembelajaran yang konvensional, sehingga berdampak pada kualitas pembelajaran bahasa Inggris. Program ini melibatkan 10 tutor dan menggabungkan ceramah, demonstrasi, serta praktik langsung menggunakan alat multimedia seperti flashcards, video, dan aplikasi desain Canva. Model pelaksanaan mengadopsi prinsip pembelajaran aktif, teori konstruktivisme, pembelajaran multimedia, dan experiential learning untuk meningkatkan keterlibatan dan kompetensi tutor. Hasil menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan dalam penguasaan kosakata tutor dengan rata-rata kenaikan nilai sebesar 30,6% dari pre-test ke post-test. Para tutor juga melaporkan peningkatan rasa percaya diri dan kreativitas dalam menyusun materi pembelajaran, sehingga menciptakan lingkungan belajar yang lebih menarik dan efektif bagi siswa. Studi ini menegaskan bahwa pemberdayaan tutor dengan keterampilan menggunakan media visual dan interaktif dapat meningkatkan kualitas pengajaran kosakata dan motivasi belajar siswa di lingkungan pendidikan yang terbatas sumber daya.

Abstract

In 21st-century higher education, critical thinking has become a pivotal competency in fostering effective language acquisition; however, an empirical gap persists regarding how its specific standard dimensions relate to language outcomes within Indonesian EFL contexts. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the correlation between specific dimensions of critical thinking skills and academic English proficiency. Adopting an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design, this research involved 50 seventh-semester English department students selected via purposive sampling at Universitas Darma Persada. Data were gathered through the standardized California Critical Thinking Skills Test (CCTST)—measuring analysis, evaluation, inference, deduction, and induction—alongside official institutional records of students' standardized English proficiency test scores and student reflection sheets. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson product-moment correlation, while qualitative data underwent thematic analysis. The quantitative findings revealed that students demonstrated a fair level of critical thinking skills, with a mean score of 26.65 (SD = 3.42). A statistically significant, moderate positive correlation was observed between overall critical thinking skills and academic English proficiency (r = 0.485, p < 0.05). Across specific dimensions, deduction (r = 0.507, p < 0.05) and analysis (r = 0.472, p < 0.05) yielded the strongest significant relationships with language performance. Qualitatively, thematic insights corroborated these results, indicating that critical thinking systematically assisted students in processing complex linguistic frameworks and organizing academic arguments. In conclusion, higher critical thinking proficiency is positively associated with superior academic English proficiency. Pedagogically, these findings imply that higher education institutions should explicitly embed logical deduction and analytical reasoning tasks into curriculum designs to simultaneously cultivate students' linguistic and cognitive competence.
