Abstract

The objective of this study was to find out the errors made by students in pronouncing diphthong “eɪ, oʊ, aɪ”. This study used a quantitative approach. To obtain valid data, the researchers administered a test that was carried out to 30 students as the sample taken from IX IPA 1 of SMA Negeri 4 Langsa. Based on the research, the data showed that one student made errors 6 times and got score 50, three students made errors 5 times and got score 58. Seven students made errors 4 times and got score 67, four students made errors 3 times and got score 75. Eight students made errors 2 times and got score 83. Six students made errors 1 time and got score 92. There was only one student who made no errors and got score 100. The cause of errors in pronouncing English diphthongs was revealed to be affected by interference of the mother tongue which is popular as the basic principle of contrastive analysis. The coming pre-service teachers were able to devise appropriate lesson plan in diphthong pronunciation teaching. In addition, it is also hoped that they can construct the suitable material for various levels and needs of learners.

Abstract

This paper discusses the Malay marriage procession that must be followed by the Malay indigenous people in Kepulauan Riau, because there are moral sanctions if they do not follow applicable customary law. In this study, the problem is examined from the maqāṣid sharīah perspective. The research method used is a qualitative research method in the form of field research. While the nature of the research is descriptive-philosophical, with data sources divided into two, namely primary data sources and secondary data sources. In collecting data, the methods used are observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of this study found that in maqāṣid sharīah perspective, the Malay marriage procession in Kepulauan Riau must be seen based on the level of urgency, namely dharuriyyah, hajjiyyah and tahsiniyyah. If viewed through maqāṣid sharīah perspective, the Malay marriage procession in Kepulauan Riau is something that is characteristic tahsiniyyah. This is because the Malay marriage procession in Kepulauan Riau only serves as a support for increasing a person’s association in society and as a mere form of obedience.

Abstract

The development of a school and the readiness of teachers to teach with dedication, accountability, and enthusiasm depend significantly on leadership. Afghanistan has been a hub for educational advancement, and teachers' dedication and sense of accountability has been a key problem. The majority of Indonesia's educational administration and leadership challenges in schools, in contrast, have been resolved by professional leadership. Through a comparison of Indonesia and Afghanistan, the current study explored the function of school leadership in fostering a feeling of responsibility in teachers. They conducted interviews with school principals and teachers in both nations using a qualitative research design. The study's findings showed that school leaders were crucial in fostering a sense of responsibility at both research sites. Each nation has its own unique school principal practices and nurturing styles. In terms of fostering a sense of responsibility in school teachers, the leadership styles in both nations may be described as democratic in Indonesia and authoritative in Afghanistan as a result of the findings.
