Abstract

This research contributes to the analysis of irony that builds the horror formula. Irony is one of the techniques used in movies to convey the message of the contradiction between hope and reality. The movie Abigail (2024) by Matt Bettinelli Olpin and Tyler Gillet illustrates that irony can construct a horror formula. The analysis in this study aims to find out what aspects of irony are contained in Matt Bettinelli Olpin and Tyler Gillet's Abigail (2024) and to identify aspects of irony that construct the horror formula in Matt Bettinelli Olpin and Tyler Gillet's Abigail (2024). This research uses Petrie and Boggss' theory for irony, while the horror formula theory used is Sarricks' theory. This research uses a descriptive qualitative analysis method to analyze the data. The results of the study found six types of irony that help construct the horror formula: dramatic irony, irony of situation, irony of character, irony of setting, irony of tone, and cosmic irony. The data used are dialog scenes collected in the form of screenshots.

Abstract

This research aims to find out the types of impoliteness strategy and to find out the application of impoliteness strategy in the song lyrics. Blackpink. The data presented is 34 lyrics. This research is a qualitative descriptive research. The data source was taken from YouTube, totaling 13 songs. Data were analyzed based on the incivility strategy developed by Culpeper (1996). Types of impoliteness found in blackpink song lyrics, 1. Bald impoliteness when recorded 12% 2. Positive politeness 29% 3. Negative impoliteness 53% 4. Sarcastic or mocking politeness 6% 5. Withholding politeness 0%. Why here I don't find wiyhold impoliteness because in the song withhold impoliteness it is very rarely used. Culpeper (2005) makes two observations in the realm of impoliteness. First, he believes that language and non-linguistic cues do not imply impoliteness. To put it another way, neither language nor non-linguistic cues are inherently disrespectful but according to Culpeper (1996), impoliteness can be conveyed not only vocally but also non-verbally, such as avoiding eye contact. When assessing impoliteness, it is also necessary to examine paralinguistic and nonverbal aspects, which is why it is impossible to use this type of song. This finding shows that Blackpink's lyrics use more negative types of impoliteness, which is why the impoliteness strategy is suitable for use in this research.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of Kahoot, a game-based learning platform, in enhancing vocabulary mastery and learning motivation among tenth-grade students in Depok, Indonesia. The research addresses the challenges faced by students in vocabulary acquisition, particularly in Narrative and Recount texts. Through a descriptive qualitative approach and utilizing cluster purposive sampling, this study examines how Kahoot's interactive features facilitate vocabulary learning and boost student engagement. The research design is a survey, which was conducted at a private senior high school in Depok (West Java), involving a total of 72 student as participants. Data collection involved questionnaires with Likert scales, open-ended questions, and vocabulary tests administered among tenth-grade students. Findings revealed that Kahoot successfully transformed traditional vocabulary learning into an engaging educational experience through its gamified approach and user-friendly interface. The platform's immediate feedback mechanisms and competitive elements fostered active participation while facilitating vocabulary retention. However, technical challenges such as internet connectivity issues and competitive pressure occasionally hindered the learning experience. Despite these limitations, the study demonstrates that Kahoot effectively balances educational content with entertainment, leading to improved vocabulary retention and increased student motivation.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationships among the Big Five Personality Traits, online learning satisfaction, and learning motivation in the context of Indonesian secondary education. The objective is to examine how personality traits influence students’ satisfaction and motivation in virtual learning environments, addressing the gap in understanding these dynamics in younger learners. Employing a correlational quantitative research design, the study involved 149 ninth-grade students from an Islamic junior high school in Indonesia. Data were collected using three validated instruments: The Big Five Inventory Questionnaire, Learner Satisfaction Survey, and English Motivation Questionnaire. Pearson Product-Moment correlation analysis was used to determine the relationships among the variables. The findings reveal strong positive correlations between online learning satisfaction and learning motivation (r = 0.955), the Big Five Personality Traits and satisfaction (r = 0.986), and personality traits and motivation (r = 0.950). Conscientiousness, agreeableness, and openness to experience emerged as significant predictors of satisfaction and motivation. These results highlight the importance of creating supportive and adaptive online learning environments tailored to individual differences. However, the study is limited by its single-school setting and reliance on self-reported data. Future research should expand to diverse educational contexts and explore additional moderating factors. This study recommends designing inclusive virtual learning environments that integrate personality-based teaching strategies to enhance engagement and learning outcomes.

Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of Quizizz in enhancing critical reading skills among veterinary students in an ESP (English for Specific Purposes) course. Using a descriptive qualitative research design, the study involved 90 veterinary students from a private university who regularly use Quizizz for reading practice. Data were collected through surveys and semi-structured interviews, focusing on students' experiences, benefits, and challenges. The responses were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify key patterns related to learning effectiveness and obstacles. The results indicate that Quizizz enhances engagement, motivation, and reading comprehension by integrating gamified features such as instant feedback, leaderboards, and interactive questions. However, the study also found limitations in fostering deeper critical reading skills, as the platform primarily supports surface-level comprehension rather than higher-order thinking. Challenges such as technical issues, lack of personalized feedback, and stress from competition were also noted. To address these challenges, the study suggests integrating discussion-based activities, incorporating instructor feedback, balancing competition with collaboration, and designing questions that promote analytical thinking. Future research should explore how adaptive learning technologies and AI-driven tutoring can further support critical reading skills in veterinary ESP courses. Keywords: Quizizz, veterinary students, critical reading, gamification, digital learning,

Abstract

The development of digital technology in recent decades has influenced English education, especially in teaching vocabulary. Several previous studies have been investigated that focus on teaching vocabulary challenges through technology. However, all of those studies do not touch on the use of technology in special needs students. This study investigated the teachers’ challenges in developing students with special needs through technology. A qualitative approach with a case study design was used in this study. This study involved six EFL female teachers who taught students with special needs in one of the inclusive schools in Central Java, Indonesia, with several criteria, including having at least five years of experience in learning by using technology for teaching children with special needs, one of which is in the context of teaching vocabulary to students with special needs themselves. A semi-structured interview was designed to collect the data to obtain detailed information about teachers' barriers to using technology to develop students with special needs vocabulary. Thematic analysis was conducted to analyze the qualitative data in some steps: transcription of the interviews, identification of the main themes, coding, categorizing the themes, and making a conclusion. The study's findings indicated that teachers faced three main challenges: students’ concentration, engagement, and language.
