Abstract

Bead craft training at the Bahagia Orphanage aims to foster an entrepreneurial spirit and improve the skills of foster children. This activity is carried out through empowerment and mentoring methods, with stages of distributing tools and materials, presenting video tutorials, and direct practice in making products such as bracelets, rings, and key chains. During the training, participants received intensive guidance from facilitators so that they were able to develop their creativity and courage to innovate. The evaluation results showed a significant increase in the technical skills and entrepreneurial motivation of children. In addition, the interactive learning atmosphere and the use of visual media have proven effective in accelerating understanding of the material. This program also has a positive impact on the formation of independent and creative characters, as well as opening up opportunities for the development of small craft-based businesses in the orphanage environment. Thus, this training is expected to be a sustainable empowerment model in building a productive and adaptive young generation to future economic challenges.

Abstract

This study examined first-year English Language Education students’ perspectives on utilizing short stories for vocabulary enrichment at a private university in Malang, Indonesia. Employing a descriptive qualitative design, the study involved 10 purposively selected participants characterized by limited initial vocabulary proficiency. Over a four-week period, the students read four flash fiction stories integrated with structured pre-reading, while-reading, and post-reading vocabulary activities. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed thematically. The findings revealed four primary themes: predominantly positive perceptions, significant benefits for vocabulary acquisition, manageable linguistic and pedagogical challenges, and practical suggestions for instructional improvement. Participants viewed short stories as significantly more engaging and effective than traditional decontextualized word-list methods, noting that contextualized narrative exposure enhanced contextual retention and syntactic understanding. Although some participants encountered difficulties regarding complex vocabulary and time constraints, they considered these challenges surmountable. The study concludes that short stories offer a highly viable alternative for vocabulary development in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) settings, providing pedagogical recommendations for lecturers and directions for future research.
