Abstract

This study aims to explore the learning medium of digital storytelling (DST) and its advantages and disadvantages as a way to facilitate the development of speaking skills among secondary students in an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classroom. This research adopts a qualitative approach with case study design, using classroom observations and interviews to gather data from EFL students at a secondary school. The findings highlighted three main activities in the implementation of digital storytelling, which were opening, main, and closing activities. Another finding was digital storytelling's advantages and disadvantages. The advantages were that digital storytelling could foster students' creativity and students were motivated to learn speaking with digital storytelling. However, time consuming and technology distraction and dependency were the disadvantages. Although DS is a useful pedagogical tool for teaching EFL speaking, its successful application depends on careful planning, sufficient technology, and teacher preparation.

Abstract

Vocabulary mastery is fundamental to the development of English language proficiency, as it underpins the acquisition of listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. In Indonesia, many junior high school students face challenges in expanding their vocabulary due to passive and repetitive learning methods. This study examined the effectiveness of the Board Race Game in improving vocabulary mastery, with a focus on nouns and adjectives. A quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design was used, involving 22 seventh-grade students from a junior high school. Data were gathered through a pre-test and post-test, each comprising 20 multiple-choice questions. The results showed a marked improvement in vocabulary scores, with the average increasing from 67.73 to 82.50. Statistical analysis using a paired sample t-test indicated a significant difference, and the effect size was calculated at 1.09, demonstrating a strong effect. These findings suggest that the Board Race Game is an effective tool for enhancing vocabulary learning.

Abstract

This study investigates how pragmatic strategies in BBC News construct public perceptions of the global economic crisis through a single case analysis of the video “How Will the Global Economy Fare in 2025?” Employing a qualitative approach within the framework of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), the study examines three units of analysis—headline/thumbnail, narration, and captions—to identify pragmatic features including implicature, presupposition, deixis, and metaphor. The analysis focuses on how these linguistic elements contribute to the framing of economic uncertainty and ideological positioning. Rather than generalizing across multiple reports, this research provides a focused interpretation of one representative case to reveal how media language subtly guides interpretation and emotional response. The findings indicate that the BBC’s lexical and discursive strategies construct narratives of uncertainty and global imbalance through evaluative and speculative expressions. However, the study does not claim direct causality between linguistic form and public emotion, acknowledging that interpretation is mediated by individual and sociocultural factors. The contribution of this study lies in clarifying how pragmatic and discourse devices operate within a single-item media text to shape meaning in times of economic instability, while its limitation is the narrow data scope that precludes broad generalization.
