Abstract

This study explores the internalization of the "Project to Strengthen the Profile of Pancasila Students" through the lens of Toraja's local culture. Pancasila, as Indonesia’s foundational philosophical principle, emphasizes values such as mutual respect, social justice, and unity in diversity. By integrating Toraja's rich cultural heritage including its traditions, arts, and social norms this project aims to enhance students' understanding and embodiment of Pancasila values. The research employs a qualitative approach, utilizing interviews, participant observations, and focus group discussions with educators, students, and local community leaders. It highlights the effectiveness of culturally contextualized education in fostering critical thinking, civic responsibility, and a sense of belonging among students. By examining local customs, such as the Toraja's unique funeral rites and communal practices, the project illustrates how these cultural elements can be harnessed to reinforce Pancasila principles in a meaningful way. Findings indicate that incorporating local culture not only enriches students' learning experiences but also cultivates a deeper appreciation for their national identity. The study concludes that the successful internalization of Pancasila values requires a collaborative effort between educational institutions and local communities, promoting a holistic educational framework that respects and celebrates cultural diversity. This approach not only prepares students to become responsible citizens but also strengthens the social fabric of Indonesia by bridging cultural heritage with national ideals. Ultimately, the project serves as a model for similar initiatives in other regions, emphasizing the importance of local culture in national education reforms aimed at nurturing a generation grounded in both local and national values.

Abstract

E-portfolios are increasingly utilized in Indonesian higher education, aligning with the "Merdeka Belajar" initiative. However, limited research explores the qualitative experiences of EFL students navigating the challenges of digital writing within this context. This study addresses this gap by investigating the difficulties encountered by undergraduate students at Mulawarman University when writing e-portfolios using Google Sites. The research employed a qualitative narrative inquiry study approach, involving in-depth interviews with three sixth-semester students and analysis of their e-portfolio submissions. Key findings revealed significant challenges related to organizational structure, writing requirements, complex writing tasks (particularly analytical and reflective writing), grammar concerns and vocabulary limitations. Students employed various coping strategies, including AI assistance, online tools, online resources, and peer feedback. The implications of this study highlight the need for educators to provide explicit guidance on e-portfolio design, address specific writing challenges, and support students in effectively utilizing digital tools for academic writing. Further research could expand the sample size for broader generalizability also explore the impact of targeted pedagogical interventions across different platforms and learning contexts.

Abstract

The research aims to identify both internal and external factors affecting students' motivation while proposing innovative solutions to enhance their engagement. The study employs a qualitative exploratory approach, utilizing semi-structured interviews and classroom observations to collect data from eleventh-grade students at an Islamic senior high school in Malang, Indonesia. Thematic analysis is used to examine patterns in students' responses, focusing on elements such as anxiety, teaching strategies, and environmental influences. Findings reveal that students’ reluctance stems from multiple factors, including fear of making mistakes, lack of material relevance, monotonous teaching approaches, and limited external support from peers and family. Additionally, technological integration and an engaging classroom atmosphere play a crucial role in shaping students’ motivation. To address these challenges, the study recommends incorporating interactive teaching methods, gamification, and contextual learning strategies. Strengthening teacher-student relationships and introducing ice-breaking activities at the beginning of lessons can help reduce anxiety and foster a more inclusive learning environment. The study concludes that enhancing students' motivation requires a holistic approach, combining pedagogical innovations, supportive learning environments, and family engagement. By implementing these strategies, educators can transform English learning into a more interactive and meaningful experience, ensuring students develop confidence and enthusiasm in mastering the language.

Abstract

This study aims to reveal the denotative and connotative meanings of yojijukugo containing the kanji "tiger" (虎) using a semantic approach. The data were collected from the website Yojijukugo no Hakkajiten, an online encyclopedia containing thousands of four-kanji idioms (yojijukugo). This research employs a qualitative descriptive method, analyzing linguistic and cultural meanings based on lexical and symbolic interpretations. The findings show that yojijukugo involving the tiger kanji carry various meanings depending on their context. Of the 30 yojijukugo analyzed, the denotative meaning reflects literal combinations of kanji, meanwhile, connotative meaning is associated with the personal emotions or thoughts of the speaker and the interlocutor. Yojijukugo such as 為虎添翼 (enhancing the strong) and 虎穴虎子 (valor in risk-taking) hold positive connotations, in contrast 苛政猛虎 (oppressive government is worse than a tiger) and 虎頭蛇尾 (strong start, weak finish) convey negative connotations. These findings affirm that tiger-based yojijukugo are not merely linguistic expressions, but also deep representations of Japanese cultural values.

Abstract

The increasing diversity of students’ learning characteristics brought a growing challenge for teachers to provide accessible and inclusive learning. This research explored the differentiated content portrayed in pre-service EFL teachers’ teaching modules, including their decisions in designing and selecting content for differentiation. A qualitative case study was conducted, involving five pre-service English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers who participated in a teacher education program. This research gleaned the data through document analysis and interviews, which then exhibited that the content differentiation was presented through the use of diagnostic assessment as pre-assessment for content adaptation, different teaching materials, and a variety of teaching modes tailored to students’ learning profiles. Moreover, pre-service EFL teachers reported that they considered students’ abilities, readiness, learning profiles, curriculum demands, sociocultural background, and available resources when designing and choosing content for differentiation. These findings emphasized the pre-service EFL teachers’ awareness of diverse learners and their efforts to plan their instruction accordingly. This research offers insight into how future teachers prepare for differentiated instruction in an EFL setting.

Abstract

Fraud is a form of criminality that often occurs in modern society and is often raised in literary works, including films. This study aims to analyze the forms of fraud in Hitoshi One's Tokyo Swindlers and explore the three elements in Donald Cressey's Triangle Fraud theory, namely pressure, opportunity, and rationalization. The method used is descriptive qualitative with a literary sociology approach. Data were obtained through literature study and content analysis of movie scenes depicting fraudulent practices. The results showed that the movie Tokyo Swindlers represented various forms of fraud such as identity fraud, transactions, hoaxes, and money laundering, which were carried out systematically by a land mafia group. The three elements of the Fraud Triangle are found explicitly in the motivation and behavior of the characters in the film. This research shows that movies can be a powerful medium of social reflection on the reality of criminality in society. The limitation of this research lies in the focus of a single object and has not reached the audience's reception. This research is expected to contribute to literary studies, criminology, and popular culture studies.

Abstract

Evaluation of learning outcomes is an important aspect in the educational process, especially in Arabic language learning at the Madrasah Aliyah level. The purpose of this study is to analyze the the items of multiple choice of Arabic language in the final semester exam subject grade X by reviewing five main indicators: validity, reliability, difficulty, discrimination and distraction effectiveness. The method used was descriptive quantitative with research subjects as many as 44 grade X students at MA Tasbeeh Baitul Qur'an Pinrang. The analysis showed that 80% of the questions were considered valid, and the instrument's reliability was in the high category, with an established Cronbach's Alpha value of 0.713, the difficulty level of most questions was in the medium category (50%), the discrimination of the questions was in the sufficient category (50%) with some questions still classified as poor and the distraction effectiveness found that the distractors functioned well more at 75% than the distractors functioned poorly at 25%. These findings indicate that the questions analyzed are of fairly good quality but still require revision of some items to improve the effectiveness of learning evaluation.

Abstract

Classroom is an environment where students and teachers can develop their communication skills. Interactions between the teacher and students in the classroom are a hallmark of communication during the teaching and learning process. Classroom activities rely heavily on interaction between students. It also affects students' academic performance. Therefore, it is essential to understand how a teacher implements classroom interaction. This study was designed to examine the types of IRF (Initiation-Response-Feedback) patterns and the most common type employed in online classroom interactions. In this pattern, there are the teacher's questions, students' responses, and the teacher's feedback. It was a descriptive qualitative study that employed classroom recording to obtain the data. The teaching and learning process involved 30 students and 1 English teacher in the online classroom. The findings revealed that all the types of IRF patterns used by the teachers and learners are procedural questions, convergent questions, divergent questions, display questions, referential questions, Socratic questions, specific response, open-ended or student-initiated, Silence, silence AV, acknowledging a correct answer, indicating an incorrect answer, praising, expanding or modifying students' answer, repeating, summary, and criticizing. This study indicated that teacher and students' initiative and response dominated the IRF pattern in this classroom. The instructor has utilized numerous types of beginning feedback. In contrast, neither work-related nor non-work-related comments were used in the discussion by students. The IRF pattern in this classroom benefited the instructor in keeping the students motivated.

Abstract

Figurative language in contemporary popular music serves not only as aesthetic embellishment, but also as cultural commentary and a mechanism for identity formation. This study analyzes how linguistic devices operate in Lana Del Rey's songs “Summertime Sadness” and “Brooklyn Baby” to understand their role in post-recession American culture. This research employs a qualitative interpretive methodology with semiotic analysis, analyzing the official lyrics through three stages: identification, interpretation, and integration of figurative language elements. The results identify main categories of figurative language with distinct patterns: “Summertime Sadness” uses metaphors and comparisons to convey emotional intensity through light-dark contrasts, while “Brooklyn Baby” employs allusions and irony for cultural identity formation. Semiotic analysis shows that these expressions reflect post-recession America (2011–2014), functioning as cultural critique and identity negotiation. The study concludes that figurative language operates as a sophisticated meaning-making system, revealing popular music as a cultural discourse space that combines artistic expression, identity formation, and cultural critique.
