In the current period, identity crises and the pursuit of existential significance are becoming increasingly complex psychological issues, exacerbated by social media pressures and high productivity expectations. The Midnight Library by Matt Haig has been analyzed using a variety of psychological techniques, but no research has examined how literacy serves as a tool for self-discovery in the book. Using the framework of New Literacy Studies (NLS) and a systematic close-reading methodology, this study examines how literacy operates as a transformative mechanism for identity reconstruction in The Midnight Library. The conceptualization of life as a textual possibility, reflective literacy practices through critical evaluation, cross-discursive identity negotiation, and the protagonist's transition from a passive reader to an active writer of their own existence were the four main themes that emerged from the analysis. These results show how literary works can serve as models for transformational literacy practices that mediate self-formation and advance narrative identity theory and literacy studies.

The Russo-Ukrainian war that sparked since 2014 has triggered a national turmoil that affects the Ukrainian film industry. In the context of contemporary Ukrainian cinema, the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian war with the indication of the presence of the Russian Armed Forces in Ukrainian soil, has allowed Ukraine to produce films and documentaries depicting resistance and the bravery of Ukrainian society towards the enemy of oppression. Following the journey of the main character, Kostia, in an attempt to rescue Ukrainian citizens of Bucha from the grasp of the Russian Armed Forces, Bucha (2024) becomes a film where Kostia acquires his self-transformation journey due to the presence of power relations. Using the visual and textual analysis of the selected scenes and dialogues in the film, curated by Foucault’s power relations and Nietzsche’s self-transformation concepts, this study discovered that in Bucha (2024), power relations specifically tied to the Kostia are manifested through mind and body, and has caused Kostia to have consciousness of old values (camel phase), evoking resistance to the oppression (lion phase), and defining his new values (child phase).

The present study examines the character of Mrs. Elm as a literacy sponsor in the character development of Nora Seed, particularly in relation to her conflict with despair and her internal struggle between life and death. Through the analysis of the relationship between these two characters, the study shows that literacy guidance by Mrs. Elm helps Nora transform from a person full of regret and despair into a more reflective individual who comes to terms with her life. In addition, the study investigates how Nora Seed’s self-transformation through the literacy process affects her self-perception, acceptance of life’s imperfections, and reinterpretation of past decisions that were previously considered failures. This study also contributes to literary studies by emphasizing the significance of literacy and the role of literacy sponsorship in shaping character development and psychological transformation in literary works.

This study examines how Nora Moon’s self-concept and diasporic identity are cinematically constructed in Past Lives (2023) through Carl Rogers’ humanistic psychology. Although previous studies have discussed identity and diaspora in film, limited attention has been given to how cinematic language represents psychological incongruence, self-reflection, and movement toward congruence. Using a qualitative textual and visual analysis, this study analyzes selected dialogues, character interactions, mise en scène, framing, silence, facial expressions, and spatial composition in key scenes involving Nora, Hae Sung, and Arthur. The findings show that Nora’s self-concept develops through the tension between her real self, represented by her Korean childhood identity as Na Young, and her ideal self, shaped by her adult life in the United States. Her relationships with Hae Sung and Arthur function as reflective mirrors that help her recognize unresolved memories, emotional attachments, and cultural belonging. The film’s use of silence, close-ups, spatial distance, and contrasting visual tones externalizes Nora’s psychological conflict and gradual movement toward self-acceptance. This study concludes that Past Lives presents diasporic identity not merely as cultural displacement but as a humanistic process of negotiating memory, emotion, and psychological congruence.

This study aims to deliver a detailed account of the prevailing literature while offering significant observations by accentuating the primary aspects of the flipped classroom and its benefits, factoring in the hurdles related to this teaching technique. The modern world is transforming into an environment where a wide range of technologies emerges, undergoes testing, and subsequently spreads swiftly. This significant transformation is evident in various fields, especially in education. This shift calls attention to the essential task of rethinking and rigorously scrutinizing the prevailing educational paradigm, the positions of instructors and students, and the teaching resources in practice. Additionally, the transition from traditional methods to innovative strategies is inevitable. The flipped classroom blends engaging learning experiences through collaborative and individual tasks in class, while lower-level tasks and self-study occur outside using digital resources. The researchers perform a theoretical review to thoroughly explore the incorporation of the flipped classroom model into our educational practices. The flipped classroom framework presents a promising strategy for boosting student learning and engagement. By thoughtfully addressing the related challenges and capitalizing on the potential advantages, educators can cultivate a more vibrant and effective learning atmosphere. Additional studies are required to evaluate the enduring consequences of the flipped classroom approach and to ascertain effective methods for its application.
