Abstract

In literary works, the language represented through words in the text is an interesting object to be analysed. This is due to the uniqueness of literary language which is different from other written languages. Language in literature is often written into certain symbols that contain hidden meanings far beyond their literal meaning. The short story Pesan Dari Seorang Yang Bernama Presiden uses a language full of symbols that need to be interpreted first using semiotic theory in order to understand the meaning of the entire text. The purpose of this study is to reveal the symbols that imply power abuse committed by a character named Presiden. The results found that the symbols of power abuse can be found in the names of the characters, the use of dogs as the Presiden's pets, and the message conveyed by the Presiden. These three results reveal that this short story contains many symbols and allusions that reveal how the character of the Presiden without getting his own hands dirty has committed power abuse against citizens by using the power he has.

Abstract

The current young generation has a low interest in history and politics. History and politics are often considered boring and uninteresting. Apart from that, the rapid development of the times makes history seem to be forgotten and denied. History, in particular, is something that teenagers consider to be just a thing of the past. In fact, the formation of a nation, including Indonesia, of course involves history and politics which have an important role in formulating its existence. There are actually many things that can be done to foster the interest of the younger generation so that they are interested and willing to study history and politics, one of which is through literary works. In fact, history was once part of literature, therefore students' thinking patterns regarding history and politics can develop through learning literary appreciation, namely by reading and analyzing a literary work. Political history, which is part of life, is reviewed in novel form so that it can provide an attraction for readers to study political history indirectly. Reading the novel "Sea Bercerita" by Leila S. Chudori can have an influence on the reader's own mindset regarding interest in contemporary history-politics indirectly both in terms of expanding historical-political knowledge, developing empathy for various perspectives, and stimulating reflection about values of life.

Abstract

This study explores the use of figures of speech in Sherlock Holmes’s utterances in Sherlock (Season 1, Episode 1: A Study in Pink). The research highlights the importance of analyzing figurative language in television dialogue as a medium to enrich character portrayal and narrative depth. Using Leech's (1969) theoretical framework, this study identifies and categorizes 64 instances of figures of speech, including irony, metaphor, hyperbole, and litotes. Data collection involved transcript analysis and time-coding of Sherlock’s dialogue. Findings reveal that irony is the most frequently used figure of speech, followed by metaphor and hyperbole. These rhetorical devices serve to emphasize Sherlock's intellectual sharpness and dramatic communication style, engaging the audience while subtly conveying layered meanings. This research underscores the value of figurative language in enhancing the storytelling experience and character complexity in television series.

Abstract

The ability to explore important information in historical narrative text is one of the important abilities that must be possessed by elementary school students in Indonesian language materials. Based on the analysis of pretest results of grade VI students on the ability of students to dig up important information in historical texts at SDN Karawang Wetan III, it was found that students still had difficulty in classifying information using aspects: what, who, when, where, why, and how. This study aims to determine whether there is a significant difference in the skill of digging up information on historical texts between groups of students taught using the Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition (CIRC) learning model assisted by Mind Mapping and groups of students taught not using the Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition (CIRC) learning model assisted by Mind Mapping for grade VI students at SDN Karawang Wetan III, East Karawang District, 2022/2023 academic year. This research is a pseudo-experiment. This research design is a non-equivalent post-test only control group design. The population of this study were all grade VI students at SDN Karawang Wetan III, East Karawang District, totaling 106 students. The research sample was class VI B students totaling 35 people as the experimental class and class VI C students 35 people as the control class. The data collection method was carried out by the test method, namely with an objective test instrument (multiple choice). The data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis techniques and t-test inferential statistical analysis techniques. The results of the analysis showed that the average score of students' historical text information retrieval skills using the CIRC learning model assisted by mind mapping was 23.47 and students who were taught not using the CIRC learning model assisted by mind mapping was 16.09. Hypothesis testing using t-test shows that t-count > ttabel (t-count = 7.73 > ttabel =1.99714). Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that there is a significant difference in the skills of digging up historical text information between students who are taught using the learning model (CIRC) assisted by mind mapping and students who are taught not using the Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition (CIRC) learning model assisted by mind mapping in class VI at SDN Karawang Wetan III for the 2022-2023 academic year.

Abstract

Abstract This study employs a quasi-experimental design approach to identify characteristics. By using pre- and post-tests on the structure and linguistic components of descriptive texts written by seventh-grade students at SMP Taruna Bakti Bandung, this research aims to determine the impact of Wordwall learning media on learning outcomes. The research sample consisted of 27 students from Class VII E, while the research population included all seventh-grade students across nine classes. Class VII Bilingual 2, consisting of 24 students, was used as the control group. The data analysis process begins with assumption testing, requiring homogeneity and normality tests. Once the data were proven homogeneous and normal, hypothesis testing (t-test) was conducted. The study results showed that the experimental class achieved an average score of 84.15 in the t-test, while the control class, which did not receive treatment, scored an average of 72.42, indicating a considerable difference. A significant difference was found between the studied variables (2-tailed) 0.000 < 0.5. Therefore, Wordwall learning media significantly impacts students' learning outcomes in recognizing the characteristics, composition, and linguistic components of descriptive texts for seventh-grade students at SMP Taruna Bakti Bandung.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has reshaped the higher education landscape, raising concerns about the integrity of academic writing, including issues such as plagiarism, hallucination, and the decline of students' critical thinking skills, primarily associated with conventional generative models or Large Language Models (LLMs). This paper aims to conduct a comparative analysis between the use of LLMs and the Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) framework, with a case study focusing on the NotebookLM platform, specifically to identify RAG's potential in enhancing academic integrity and facilitating authentic sourcing. Employing a quantitative approach, the research targeted data collection from 37 student respondents from the Indonesian Language Education Study Program at IKIP Siliwangi through a structured questionnaire. The hypothesis posits that the RAG framework can effectively integrate information from external knowledge bases to address three main issues: 1) the way students obtain references in scientific writing, 2) the reduction of source hallucination in writing, and 3) the encouragement of students to become active knowledge curators.
