Abstract

This study aims to analyze the Oedipus complex and the hyperactivity symptoms displayed by the protagonist in the movie 'Mommy'. The research problem is that there has been limited psychological analysis of the potential presence of the Oedipus complex and hyperactivity disorder in fictional characters in films. This gap in research warrants a thorough examination of the protagonist in 'Mommy' to gain deeper insight into the depicted psychological intricacies. Qualitative methodology is used, applying Freud's psychoanalytic theory and Russell Barkley's ADHD theory to analyze dialogues and scene depictions from the film. By systematically identifying and categorizing data pertinent to Oedipus complex and hyperactivity symptoms, conclusions are drawn from the findings. The film's protagonist displays symptoms of Oedipus complex, such as seeking excessive attention from their mother, feeling jealousy towards their mother's romantic partner, engaging in inappropriate physical contact, showing anxiety about maternal separation, and developing affection for an older maternal acquaintance. Furthermore, hyperactivity symptoms manifest with excessive speech, heightened motor activity, and intentional agitation of others. This analysis indicates that the film's main character displays signs of the Oedipus complex and hyperactivity disorder. This thorough examination fills the research gap and allows for a more profound comprehension of the psychological intricacies portrayed in the protagonist.

Abstract

Vocabulary is crucial for effective communication, especially in the global context where English is an essential international language. However, English proficiency at one of the state junior high schools in Perak Jombang, East Java, remains low. This research aims to determine the effectiveness of the Scrabble game in improving vocabulary mastery in class VII-I in one of the state junior high schools at Perak Jombang, East Java. This research used a pre-experimental design with a sample of twenty-five students. Data collection included pre-test and post-test assessments, analyzed using the Sample Paired t-test formula with a significance level of 0.05 (α=5%). The results revealed a two-tailed significance value (sig.) of 0.000, which is less than 0.05. ttable calculation at significance alpha= 5% is 2.063 while the tcount 4.203 (tcount > ttable). This indicates that the null hypothesis (H0) is rejected, and the alternative hypothesis (H1) is accepted. These findings demonstrate that the Scrabble game effectively enhances students' vocabulary mastery. It is hoped that this research can serve as a reference for other researchers to explore using Scrabble to improve vocabulary among junior high school students.

Abstract

Technological Content Knowledge (TCK) is the knowledge of integrating technology into learning materials. The previous research examined TCK in many fields of education, such as history, elementary school teacher education, mathematics, biology, and science. However, TCK study in the English field is still under-researched. Therefore, this study aims to find the English teacher's knowledge of TCK. This study employed a qualitative approach with narrative inquiry design. The researchers used interviews, observation, and documentation to collect the data. The samples of this study are three English teachers in vocational high schools recruited based on several criteria determined by researchers. The finding showed that all participants mastered various technologies to deliver learning and could combine the two things well to achieve learning objectives. It can be concluded that all participants have a good level of knowledge of TCK.

The resulting test is graded on a band scale from range from 0 (did not take the test) to 9 (proficient in English) which indicates students' understanding and ability to read in English. Understanding the types of questions on the IELTS is crucial for students to prepare for the test. However, the test requires precise abilities for success. Teachers can create lesson plans for teaching Reading IELTS to help students prepare for the test and prepare them for the test. To answer IELTS Reading questions, students need fast and accurate reading skills and the right strategy. Teaching reading skills for the IELTS test can be challenging, but several strategies can help teachers structure effective teaching. These include understanding the test format, analyzing previous questions, building academic vocabulary, teaching active reading, practicing explaining the main idea, teaching skimming and scanning techniques, managing class discussion and analysis, practicing with varied reading material, using an integrated approach, giving constructive feedback, simulating reading tests, giving homework, training students to compose an outline, and promoting flexibility in learning.

Bangka Island has several kinds of tourist attractions, such as natural tourism, historical tourism, cultural tourism and artificial tourism. The names of tourist attractions on Bangka Island still follow the names of the areas where the tourist attractions are located.

There is a need for an in-depth study regarding the naming of tourist attractions on Bangka Island to increase public awareness and the body of knowledge that needs to be preserved to increase tourism potential on Bangka Island. Research on the toponymy of tourist attractions on the island of Bangka uses ethnosemantic methods, and the results are described qualitatively. Ten tourist attractions were selected by random sampling based on the availability of information in the community. From the results of this research, it can be concluded that the names of tourist attractions on Bangka Island consist of three aspects, namely the linguistic aspect, both generic and specific, and the historical aspect of the formation and dynamics of society in the area.

Abstract

As essential knowledge tools, books appeal to a broad audience, including children, teenagers, and parents, with Bedtime Stories particularly captivating for children at night. This study examines the sociolinguistic characteristics of Bedtime Stories, emphasizing the variety of language styles used by authors to engage a child's imagination. Analyzing children's stories from online sources, focusing on five selected narratives, the researchers reveal a range of language styles - formal, informal, casual, and colloquial - with conversational style being the most prevalent. Additionally, this study identifies diverse language functions, including expressive, directive, referential, and phatic, with a significant emphasis on expressive functions. These insights extend our understanding of language use in bedtime stories and suggest directions for future research. Further studies should explore a broader and more varied sample, utilizing qualitative and quantitative methods, deepening our grasp of language styles in children's literature, particularly in the digital era. This exploration is crucial for comprehending how adaptable and diverse language styles can effectively engage children globally, fostering their cognitive and emotional development in our interconnected world.

Abstract

This study aims to determine how seriously students participate in learning Indonesian synchronously and asynchronously through digital lecture media, namely the Learning Management System (LMS). In addition, the researcher wanted to know how far the content quality of their writing was when they were given the task of writing a text and what factors influenced the cause of the quality level of their language skills. The methods used in this research are direct observation and questionnaires. The study results show that students are more enthusiastic when lectures are synchronous rather than asynchronous because they can listen directly to the explanations. In addition, the online media activities they engage in outside of class significantly impact the quality and quantity of their written content. Their activities usually include watching films, playing online games, and using social media.
