Abstract

ABSTRACT This study examines strategies for improving speaking proficiency in Indonesian Language for Foreign Learners (ILFL) through culturally integrated instruction. Using qualitative data from interviews with 15 learners and 10 instructors, five key strategies were identified: task-based learning, cultural immersion, peer interaction, constructive feedback, and multimedia use. These methods provide learners with real-life contexts, reduce speaking anxiety, and build confidence. Cultural immersion, in particular, enhances learners’ understanding of Indonesian society and supports meaningful communication. Peer activities promote collaboration and fluency, while multimedia resources expose learners to natural speech and varied accents. The findings confirm the value of integrating cultural content into ILFL teaching practices. This study recommends incorporating these strategies into ILFL curriculum and teacher training programs to foster both linguistic and intercultural competence among learners.

Abstract

Abstract The key work in the issue of women's rights, individuality, and sisterly love in the 19th century, Louisa May Alcott's Little Women (1868–1869), follows three sisters' following their dreams while facing societal norms during the Civil War: Jo, Meg, Beth, and Amy. The novel critiques strict gender roles via Jo March, who challenges norms by becoming a writer, highlighting Alcott's feminist view. This paper examines Little Women’s relevance today through adaptations, particularly Greta Gerwig's 2019 film, reflecting current cultural values. Thematic shifts in the approaches to feminism, family, and social norms are discussed in the paper. Each adaptation represents its sociohistorical context, from conservatism in the 1933 film to the feminist critique so bodily expressed by Gerwig. The conclusion confirms the status of Little Women as an active cultural reference of continuous debates on women's independence, equity, and identity. Alcott's story about how one sisterly family struggles through to success and self-determination really denotes an emerging feminist discourse. Little Women is such an important document in helping to shape emerging feminist discussions that it manages to be a part of both literature and culture.

Abstract

The intention of this study is to evaluate the preparedness of junior high school English teachers in Bengkulu Utara to implement deep learning strategies in their classrooms. The application of deep learning methodologies, which emphasize active engagement, critical thinking, and real-world application, purpose to target improvement, communication, and student outcomes. The study applied a structured questionnaire to evaluate the knowledge, skills and attitudes of 50 teachers towards deep learning. The findings indicated that while teachers displayed considerable knowledge (mean = 3.9) and favourable attitudes (mean = 4.1), their competencies in implementing these strategies were less advanced (mean = 3.7). The study's findings underscore the necessity for ongoing professional development to refine teachers' practical skills, especially in the fields of lesson design and technological integration, therefore ensuring the optimal utilization of deep learning in English language pedagogy.
