Abstract

Communication between teachers and students is an important element in problem-based learning (PBL). This study aims to explore students' perceptions of the effectiveness of teacher communication in guiding PBL projects, as well as how these perceptions affect student engagement and learning outcomes. A qualitative approach with a correlational descriptive design was used to explore the relationship between teacher communication and the level of student engagement. The findings of the study show that the clarity of instruction, constructive feedback, teachers' ability to facilitate group discussions, and the use of technology have an important role in improving students' understanding and engagement in PBL. Most students assessed teacher communication as effective, but there were still challenges related to the use of technology and the involvement of all group members in discussions. The results of the correlation analysis showed a significant positive relationship between students' perception of teacher communication and their level of involvement in PBL projects, as well as contributing to better learning outcomes. This research provides insights for the development of more effective communication strategies in supporting problem-based learning, with special attention to clear instructions, relevant feedback, and appropriate use of technology.

Abstract

Plantation management in Indonesia plays an important role in supporting the national economic sector. Digital transformation has brought significant changes through the implementation of digital communications such as mobile applications, web-based systems, and cloud platforms. This technology speeds up workflows, improves data-driven decision-making, and facilitates coordination between stakeholders. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method to analyze the impact of digital communication in improving plantation operational efficiency. The results show that digitalization allows for more effective resource management, reduced operational costs, and increased productivity. However, there are challenges in the form of low digital literacy of field workers, limited internet infrastructure, and the need for technology training. In addition to supporting operational efficiency, digital technology also contributes to environmental sustainability by minimizing the use of excess chemicals. Successful digital transformation requires collaboration between governments, the private sector, and stakeholders to develop digital infrastructure, provide intensive training, and increase motivation for technology adoption. This research emphasizes that digitalization is a strategic step that not only strengthens the plantation sector but also supports economic and environmental sustainability in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the causes and effects of verbal bullying depicted in The Karate Kid (2010) using a descriptive method. The film portrays Dre, a transfer student from the United States, as a victim of verbal bullying by Cheng and his friends. The analysis is based on theories from Wardhana (2015) and Fujikawa (2016). The identified causes of verbal bullying include Cheng's hatred toward Dre's physical differences, Cheng's lack of self-confidence driving him to seek attention, and his resentment stemming from negative experiences with his teacher. The effects of verbal bullying on Dre include feeling intimidated, leading him to avoid Cheng, and feeling alienated, which causes discomfort in his new environment and a desire to return to the United States. This study highlights the complex causes and significant psychological impacts of verbal bullying, both in real-life contexts and fictional representations such as films.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of hoax news about foreign doctors on the trust of University X medical students in the government. It focuses on two controversial events: the viral spread of claims regarding the government’s plan to recruit 6,000 foreign doctors and the dismissal of Faculty Dean. Both events were widely circulated on digital media, often with sensationalized and misleading headlines, fueling public confusion and skepticism, particularly within the academic medical community. Utilizing a descriptive quantitative approach, the research surveyed 277 out of 903 active students through convenience sampling. Data were gathered via an online questionnaire measuring both the extent of hoax news exposure and the students’ level of trust in government institutions. A simple linear regression analysis revealed a strong and significant relationship between hoax exposure and trust levels, with an R² value of 0.870 and a correlation coefficient of 0.933. This suggests that 87% of the variation in trust is attributable to the influence of hoax content. Despite students’ general awareness of current events, misleading narratives and delayed government responses significantly shaped their perceptions. The findings highlight the need for improved government crisis communication that is timely, transparent, and evidence-based. Additionally, it underscores the importance of fostering digital literacy and critical thinking in educational settings to help students critically assess information and maintain trust in public institutions, especially in health-related matters.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze semiotic signs in the film Dua Garis Biru referring to the semiotic approach according to Roland Barthes. The reason for choosing this film is because it raises complex social issues regarding teenage pregnancy, family conflict, and social pressure in modern Indonesian society. This study applies a qualitative descriptive method using a two-level semiotic analysis technique according to Barthes: denotation and connotation. The results of the analysis show that this film contains many visual symbols and dialogues that are full of meaning, representing the social reality of teenagers and the role of the family. Symbols such as the blue line, the dining table, and the classroom are the main elements in communicating moral messages and cultural aspects. Through the interpretation of these signs, this film is able to arouse the audience's social awareness of the importance of sex education, communication in the family, and adolescent responsibility.
