Abstract

This study investigates the English learning strategies employed by athlete students at a senior high school in Kalasan, Yogyakarta, aiming to pinpoint the most effective approaches aligned with their learning preferences. Utilizing a quantitative research design, data were gathered through the Strategy Inventory for Language Learning (SILL) from 26 athlete students actively involved in diverse sports. The results indicate that cognitive strategies, employed by 76% of participants, emerged as the most prevalent, underscoring the students’ inclination toward practical, problem-solving activities. Social strategies, with a 73% usage rate, emphasized the value of collaboration, while affective strategies, at 63%, addressed emotional factors such as motivation and anxiety management. In contrast, compensatory (61%), metacognitive (61%), and memory (59%) strategies showed moderate to lower adoption, suggesting opportunities for further development. The findings highlight cognitive, social, and affective strategies as particularly effective for athlete students, offering practical guidance for educators to adapt teaching methods that balance the competing demands of academic achievement and athletic commitments.

Abstract

Although there have been many studies on the novel Sāq Al-Bāmbū, none have highlighted the issue of social stratification. Previous studies have focused on psychology, identity, cultural hybridity, social protest, and translation problems. To fill this gap in academic studies, this article aims to discuss the issue of how social stratification is represented in the novel, specifically how the intersections of race, class, gender, and ethnicity affect the lives of marginalised characters such as José. This study uses a qualitative approach, and data are collected through close reading and textual analysis, focusing on narrative elements. The data are then analysed using the sociology of literature, specifically social stratification. The analysis reveals four main aspects of social stratification illustrated in the novel: First, citizenship-based stratification shows that José’s legal Kuwaiti citizenship does not guarantee social acceptance due to his Filipino heritage, highlighting the dominance of ethnicity and race over legal status in determining inclusion. Second, economic class-based stratification reveals the rigid class divisions in Kuwaiti society, where wealth and family background influence social status. Third, gender-based stratification emphasises the economic exploitation and limited autonomy of women, especially migrant workers like José’s mother, reflecting how patriarchal norms limit women’s roles. Finally, ethnic-based stratification illustrates the marginalisation of mixed-race individuals, like José, who face discrimination in Kuwait and the Philippines, with ethnic hierarchies shaping their social standing. The findings of this study contribute to and have implications for sociological studies in Arabic literature while offering critical insights into how literature can influence awareness and reflection on social practices in real-world contexts.
