Abstract

The implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum in Indonesia aims to cultivate students who embody the values of Pancasila. However, achieving the profile of Pancasila learners has been challenging due to less meaningful learning experiences that do not cater to diverse student needs. This study explores the potential of Game-Based Learning (GBL) integrated with local wisdom to address these challenges in Batang Regency's high schools and vocational schools. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were collected from 25 teachers through questionnaires, interviews, and observations. The findings reveal that GBL activities, such as traditional game adaptations, folktale integration, cultural role-playing, and local-themed vocabulary and grammar games, significantly enhance student engagement, motivation, and cultural awareness. These activities not only make learning more enjoyable and relevant but also foster the values of Pancasila, promote local culture, and support Batang tourism. The study reveals the importance of providing adequate resources and training for teachers to overcome implementation challenges and suggests future research to explore the long-term impacts and scalability of GBL. By integrating local wisdom into GBL, educators can create a dynamic and inclusive learning environment that aligns with the Merdeka Curriculum's goals and enriches the educational experience in Indonesia.

Abstract

Extensive reading is an effective approach to learning reading. However, this approach is sometimes criticized since it is difficult to measure the improvements in learners’ reading skills. This is due to the primary objective of extensive reading being "reading for pleasure." A refreshment is needed regarding the learning process by adding some supplements to the learning activities. This paper proposes a fresh perspective on implementing an extensive reading project by incorporating the concepts of hyperlearning and cultural context-based reading. Hyperlearning is leveraging technology to improve the reading experience while also solidifying a profound value whilst the cultural context involves selecting texts that are relevant to the interests or background of the learner. By incorporating this approach into their learning experience, learners can improve their language skills while enjoying a more dynamic and personalized learning experience. In this way, learners will cultivate learning habits that are called "hyperlearners".

Abstract

This qualitative case study examines the readiness of five Madrasas to develop collaborative English teaching modules within an independent curriculum framework. These Madrasas were selected for their exemplary practices and potential to serve as models. Through appreciative interviews and asset discovery, we assessed readiness in critical areas: working conditions, teacher-student relationships, teacher qualifications, ICT readiness, and in-service training. The findings reveal a positive work culture characterized by post-training knowledge dissemination and collaborative learning plan sharing. Teacher-student solid relationships further support academic success, as demonstrated by student achievements in various competitions. Teacher qualifications are robust, with many possessing advanced degrees and engaging in continuous professional development. The readiness of these Madrasas is underscored by their ability to leverage past experiences, such as those from the USAID PRIORITAS initiative. The study highlights the significant readiness of these Madrasas to develop and implement independent curriculum teaching modules.

Abstract

This study specifically concentrated on conducting an in-depth analysis of the various types of derivational suffixes. Derivational affixes were one of the most interesting topics to analyze, as they influence the formation of words from simple to complex ones. The data used in this analysis was sourced from the novel "Every Summer After" by the esteemed author Carley Fortune. Carley Fortune is a #1 Canadian national bestseller and has been honored with an award for her exceptional work as a journalist and author. This data was meticulously examined through the application of a qualitative analytical method. The research findings have been thoroughly explored using both formal and informal explanations. The analysis was based on Plag's theory (2003) and supported theory up by Carstairs-Mccarthy's theory (2002). This comprehensive approach helped in understand the findings in depth. This comprehensive linguistic analysis of the novel meticulously identified four distinct types of derivational suffixes: nominal, verbal, adjectival, and adverbial. The results revealed a notable prevalence of nominal suffixes, a total of 249 instances, and a smaller number of verbal suffixes, amounting to just 3 instances. Furthermore, this study found 96 instances of nominal suffixes, 86 instances of adverbial suffixes, and 64 instances of adjectival suffixes in the text. This thorough analysis provides a detailed examination of the intricate language intricacies found within Fortune's novel. Furthermore, it enhances the overall understanding of how derivational morphology is utilized in contemporary literature.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the prevalence and impact of verbal bullying among adolescents, as well as the role of bystanders in these situations. The methodology involved a survey of 93 respondents, with mental health assessment conducted using the Self-Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ) validated by the WHO, which is a reliable tool for measuring mental health in adolescent populations. The findings show that 39.8% of respondents experienced verbal bullying, primarily in the form of hurtful words (57.8%) and name-calling (42.2%), mostly perpetrated by peers (60.2%). Additionally, 44.6% of respondents reported the presence of bystanders during these incidents, with most (51.4%) attempting to help the victims, although a substantial proportion (43.2%) chose to remain silent, reflecting the complex dynamics in bullying situations. Verbal bullying has significant effects on individuals' mental health, as evidenced by 64.9% of respondents reporting mental health issues related to verbal bullying. Furthermore, interviews with 9 selected victims revealed a range of emotions based on bystander behavior, highlighting feelings of anger, sadness, and anxiety when bystanders supported the perpetrator or remained passive, while victims felt relief and gratitude when defended. Importantly, the perspective of bystanders was not examined in this study. While the research focused on the experiences of victims of verbal bullying and the emotional impacts they face, it did not delve into the motivations, feelings, or actions of bystanders. Understanding how bystanders perceive bullying situations and what influences their decisions could provide a more comprehensive view of the dynamics involved in bullying. Future studies could explore these aspects to gain insights into the bystander effect and its implications for both victims and witnesses.

Abstract

: The phenomenon of reduplication in the Madurese language is essential for enriching vocabulary and facilitating nuanced communication. This research explores the sociolinguistic and cross-linguistic aspects of reduplication in Madurese, emphasizing its diverse meanings and its interplay with other linguistic components. Our analysis seeks to reveal the ways in which reduplication influences cultural and social interactions among speakers of Madurese. Employing a qualitative methodology, data was collected through observations and interviews with native speakers. A comparative sociolinguistic approach was utilized to examine reduplication in Madurese in relation to analogous patterns in Javanese and Indonesian, underscoring the impact of contextual, cultural, and linguistic factors on meaning. The results demonstrate that reduplication in Madurese fulfills various functions, including the expression of plurality, intensity, and emotional nuances. Reduplicated nouns typically denote plurality, whereas adjectives indicate intensification, showcasing functions that differ from those in Javanese and Indonesian. This research enhances our comprehension of the multifaceted role of reduplication in Madurese, illustrating its contribution to linguistic identity and cultural representation. These results highlight the significance of studying reduplication to grasp the processes of meaning-making within sociolinguistic frameworks.
