Abstract

This study aims to analyze the contextual meaning of the word "cry" found in the texts of children's books by Enid Blyton and to explore how this word is translated into Indonesian. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, this research employs semantic analysis to understand the variations in meaning and emotional nuances contained in the use of the word "cry" across different narrative contexts. The qualitative semantic method allows the researcher to delve into the meanings of words within social and cultural contexts, as well as how these meanings can shift depending on the situation and the emotions of the characters. Data were collected from four purposively selected stories, and analysis was conducted on ten sentences containing the word "cry." The findings reveal that "cry" is a polysemous word that conveys a range of meanings, including expressions of joy, fear, and mockery, all of which are influenced by the narrative context. This study emphasizes the importance of understanding contextual meaning in literary analysis and translation, as well as the challenges faced in preserving emotional nuances when translating polysemous words.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of prolonged exposure to English-language YouTube videos on the disruption of mother tongue development among young children in Indonesia. Set within the growing relevance of digital media in early language acquisition, this qualitative research adopts a case study design involving seven children aged 3 to 7 years who are currently receiving speech therapy in Bandung. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews with parents and non-participant observations of the children's communicative behaviors. Findings indicate a recurring pattern of language interference, including frequent code-mixing between English and Bahasa Indonesia, limited mastery of native vocabulary, and dependence on non-verbal cues such as gestures or incomplete phrases. For instance, several children were observed substituting basic Indonesian words with English counterparts (e.g., “open” instead of buka), or forming syntactically incorrect sentences influenced by English structure. These disruptions are closely associated with the predominance of English-language input during daily screen time and a marked reduction in native language interaction—particularly during the COVID-19 lockdown period. The study underscores an imbalance in bilingual exposure, wherein English increasingly replaces Bahasa Indonesia in daily expression, potentially contributing to expressive language delays and syntactic confusion. To address these challenges, the research recommends increased parental mediation, purposeful mother tongue engagement at home, and implementation of media literacy programs tailored to early childhood contexts. While the study provides valuable insights into media-induced linguistic shifts in multilingual settings, it is limited by its small sample size and specific geographic focus. Future research should explore longitudinal outcomes and include diverse socio-cultural contexts to enhance generalizability.

Abstract

This quasi-experimental study examined the effectiveness of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in developing Grade VII students' skimming skills for descriptive text comprehension at SMPN 18 Bandung over four weeks. A total of 62 students participated in the study, divided equally into an experimental group (n=31) and a control group (n=31). Both groups were assessed using pre-test and post-test instruments. The experimental group, which received instruction through the PBL approach, showed a statistically significant improvement in their reading comprehension scores—from a pre-test average of 27.387 to a post-test average of 40.354 (gain = 12.967). In contrast, the control group, which received conventional instruction, improved from 25.354 to 36.387 (gain = 11.032). The results indicate that the PBL approach is more effective than traditional methods in enhancing students’ skimming skills and comprehension of descriptive texts. It is suggested that English teachers consider implementing Project-Based Learning as an alternative instructional strategy to improve reading comprehension and overall academic achievement.

Abstract

Effective vocabulary acquisition is essential for students to engage with technical materials and succeed in professional environments in vocational education. This study investigates the correlation between student-centered learning strategies and students’ understanding of English vocabulary in electrical engineering classes at SMKN 6 Bandung. Using a quantitative correlational method, data were collected from 36 tenth-grade electrical engineering students through a structured questionnaire and a vocabulary comprehension test. The instruments were validated, and reliability was confirmed with a Cronbach’s Alpha value of 0.729.  To analyse the data, descriptive statistics and Pearson’s correlation were applied. The results revealed a strong positive correlation (r = 0.852, p < 0.001) between the implementation of student-centered strategies and students’ performance on the vocabulary test. Moreover, 69.5% of students scored at or above the 70th percentile, with 36.1% achieving perfect scores. These findings are consistent with Gagné’s instructional model, indicating that a structured and student-centered learning approach enhances cognitive processing and promotes better vocabulary retention. The study concludes that incorporating student-centered strategies in technical English instruction significantly improves student outcomes and recommends further research across diverse vocational disciplines to confirm the generalizability of these results.
