Abstract

This study aims to investigate the challenges experienced by junior high school students in engaging with Cooperative Learning (CL) during English lessons. Using a descriptive qualitative approach with a participatory design, the researchers directly implemented CL in the classroom and observed student interactions. Data were collected from 20 seventh-grade students through open-ended questionnaires, group interviews, and classroom observations. The findings reveal that students generally have a positive perception of group learning, particularly in terms of motivation, comfort, and peer collaboration. However, several obstacles were identified, including unequal task distribution, difficulties in communication, inactive group members, and limited understanding of the material during group discussions. These challenges suggest that although CL offers emotional and social benefits, its implementation requires structured guidance and support to ensure equal participation and effective learning. The study implies that fostering active engagement and balanced collaboration among students is essential for maximizing the benefits of Cooperative Learning in junior high school contexts.

Abstract

This study investigates the use of deixis in a BBC News article titled “Trump blames Zelensky for starting war after massive Russian attack” to explore how language constructs narratives in political conflict reporting. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach grounded in pragmatic analysis, the research identifies and categorizes five types of deixis: person, place, time, discourse, and social deixis. The analysis reveals that person deixis is the most frequently used, emphasizing the roles and responsibilities of political actors, followed by place and time deixis that structure the spatial and chronological context of the news. Discourse and social deixis, though less frequent, contribute to textual cohesion and the representation of institutional roles. The study concludes that deixis functions not only as a linguistic reference but also as a strategic tool for framing meaning, positioning political figures, and shaping public perception. These findings imply that journalists and readers alike should be aware of the pragmatic power of deixis in news discourse, encouraging critical media literacy and reflective reporting, especially in the context of international political conflicts.
