Abstract

This research aims to analyse the relationship between the space and the women characters behaviour, and how the characters interpret the spaces in Trees of Peace film. The spatial triad by Henri Lefebvre was employed to answer the research questions while using qualitative method to analyse the data that are collected from the film’s scenes and dialogues. The research found that a character’s behaviour in a small space can vary, and can be very distinct from one character and another. How the characters interpret the spaces can also varies, depending on the situations and experiences that each character had gone through, even when they are spending time in the same place. The dynamic of the character also caused the difference in interpreting the space. As a result, the relationship between the characters and the space are intertwined with how they interpret the space. The better relationship a character has with the space, the more positive their interpretation of the space will be. Keywords: Space, Spatial Triad, Trees of Peace Film, Women.

Abstract

This research investigates the effect of English teachers’ emotional intelligence (EI) on students’ English learning at MAN 1 Kota Gorontalo. Emotional intelligence, including the indicators such as self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills, plays a crucial role in shaping classroom dynamics and fostering students’ motivation. The research aims to explore how English teachers’ EI influences students’ confidence, engagement, and enthusiasm in learning English. This research employed a qualitative case study design. The data were collected through semi-structured interviews and classroom observations involving two English teachers and ten students from grades 10 and 11 during the 2024/2025 academic year. Thematic analysis was used to identify key patterns emerging from participants’ experiences. Findings revealed that emotionally intelligent teachers significantly enhance students’ learning experiences through five major impacts: (1) enhancing self-confidence by appreciating efforts and normalizing mistakes; (2) creating supportive and enjoyable learning environments; (3) fostering intrinsic motivation through meaningful and engaging activities; (4) encouraging future aspirations such as studying abroad; and (5) providing emotional support and promoting peer collaboration. These practices contribute to a positive classroom climate where students feel valued, motivated, and resilient. The study concludes that teachers’ emotional intelligence is not only a personal quality but also a pedagogical competence essential for sustaining students’ motivation and well-being. It recommends integrating EI development into teacher training and professional programs to enhance both instructional effectiveness and emotional support in language education.

Abstract

The growing visibility of multiracial characters in contemporary popular media is frequently interpreted as evidence of progressive racial inclusion. Yet increased representation does not necessarily guarantee stable identity formation within narrative structures. This study examines how racial discrimination operates as a constitutive force shaping multiracial subjectivity in the Netflix series Ginny & Georgia (2021). It employs qualitative textual analysis of eight selected scenes from Season One—chosen for their narrative significance in depicting racialised interaction, identity negotiation, and emotional responses to racial ambiguity—to examine how institutional, interpersonal, and internalised forms of racism are narratively constructed. Integrating Jones's multilevel model of racism, Du Bois's concept of double consciousness, and Turner's theory of liminality, the findings indicate that institutional positioning, interpersonal microaggressions, and internalised ambiguity collectively generate what this article conceptualises as destabilised belonging—a condition in which multiracial identity remains persistently unsettled, marked by insecurity, embodied self-harm, and relational isolation. Rather than presenting multiracial identity as harmonious hybridity, the series constructs it as an ongoing negotiation marked by fragmentation and conditional inclusion. By foregrounding the cumulative effects of subtle discrimination, the narrative challenges celebratory discourses of diversity and exposes the persistence of racial hierarchy within ostensibly inclusive environments. This study contributes to cultural and media scholarship by shifting analytical attention from representation alone to the structural and psychological consequences of discrimination in popular media narratives. It argues that multiracial visibility in streaming culture may coexist with continued instability in belonging, revealing the limits of multicultural inclusion in contemporary racial frameworks.
