Abstract

Film, in its narrowest definition, refers to the presentation of images on a large screen; however, in a broader context, it may also encompass those broadcast on television. As a mass medium, film is a complex form of audiovisual art. This study employs Roland Barthes' semiotic approach to explore the symbolic significance of the jasmine ronce necklace in Ryan Adriandy's film "Jumbo." The analysis is conducted through two levels: denotation and connotation, along with the concept of myth. The jasmine ronce necklace is interpreted not merely as a physical object but as a cultural and ideological signifier. Findings from this study reveal that the jasmine ronce necklace embodies spiritual meaning, the sanctity of love, and emotional depth, which together construct cultural myths within the Indonesian context.

Abstract

Sidomulyo Tourism Village, located in Jember Regency, has undertaken various initiatives to enhance its appeal as a tourist destination. One such initiative is establishing a new restaurant, Astana Joglo, with a village café concept. Positioned near the Sendang Tirto Gumitir spring, with scenic views of rice fields and coffee plantations, Astana Joglo represents an innovative addition to the village’s tourism offerings. However, to ensure its success, thorough preparation is essential before its operation, particularly regarding human resources and product offerings. This service project aims to enhance the management of Astana Joglo by providing training in service procedures and local-based product development. The training program is structured in four stages: preparation, socialization, training, and evaluation. It covers two main areas: service sequence and local-based product development. The primary beneficiaries of this program are the young, productive-age members of the Sidomulyo Tourism Village management team. The outcomes of this initiative include improved knowledge and skills among participants and the creation of Standard Operating Procedures (S.O.P.) for services at Astana Joglo. The average pretest score for the knowledge component was 3.65 while the posttest score was 6.2. On the other hand, the result of the skill pretest score was 2.7 while the result of the posttest was 5.8. To ensure the long-term sustainability of the training, a medium-term evaluation and monitoring process will be implemented, with active involvement from the young managers to support the ongoing development of the tourism facility.

Abstract

Professionalism is a cornerstone of success in the tourism industry, underscoring the need for targeted skill development among students pursuing tourism-related education. Recognising this, Politeknik Negeri Jember (Polije) launched the Edu tourism teaching factory. This innovative initiative integrates Tourism Destination Study Program students into real-world industry environments, fostering professionalism through experiential learning. This effort aligns with Polije’s outcome-based education framework, emphasising the production of industry-ready graduates. A critical component of this initiative is the development of structured teaching materials that address the specific aspects of professionalism required in the tourism sector. However, identifying these components necessitates comprehensive research into students’ perceptions and industry needs. Grounded in the context of global tourism, where professionalism directly impacts service quality and customer satisfaction, this qualitative study explores the requirements for teaching materials that promote professionalism. Using simple random sampling, 125 students were surveyed, complemented by interviews with program managers, Edu tourism administrators, and student representatives. The Miles and Huberman technique was employed for data analysis, integrating triangulated survey and interview data. Key findings revealed that students prioritise politeness, communication skills, and respect, followed by attention to detail, helpfulness, and consideration. Preferred teaching tools include bilingual video tutorials on service excellence, reflecting the industry’s global nature. This study has significant implications for global tourism education and practice. It addresses the critical need to standardise professionalism training. By aligning teaching materials with real-world industry demands, this research supports enhancing service standards and fostering a globally competitive tourism workforce.

Abstract

This study explores the pivotal role of language in fostering cross-cultural appreciation among Indonesian International Student Mobility Awards (IISMA) awardees. We examined the experiences of two awardees of prestigious international exchange programs to understand how language acquisition and use influenced their cultural perceptions and interactions. Using a mixed-methods approach, we conducted in-depth interviews and administered surveys to gather data on the participants’ language learning journeys, intercultural communications, and shifts in cultural perspectives. The selected participants represented diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds and completed exchanges in countries where they needed to navigate a foreign language. Our findings reveal that language proficiency significantly enhanced the awardees’ ability to appreciate and engage with host cultures. Key themes emerged, including: 1) the role of language as a gateway to deeper cultural understanding; 2) Challenges and breakthroughs in intercultural communication; 3) The impact of idiomatic expressions on cultural insight; 4) Changes in self-perception and cultural identity through language learning; and 5) The development of empathy and cultural relativism. Quantitative data indicated a strong positive correlation between language proficiency and measures of cultural appreciation. Qualitative analysis provided rich insights into the nuanced ways language shaped the awardees’ cross-cultural experiences. This research contributes to our understanding of the intricate relationship between language and culture in international education contexts. It offers valuable implications for enhancing student exchange programs and promoting global citizenship through targeted language and cultural learning strategies.
