<![CDATA[The problem in this study is that learning still uses the lecture method, there are still elementary schools that have not used audio-visual media, there are still educators who cannot operate audio-visual media, there are still students who have grades below the KKM. The aims of this study were (1) to analyze the characteristics of discovery learning-based audio-visual media to improve thematic learning outcomes of Class III Cluster IV Gadingrejo students and (2) to analyze the effectiveness of discovery learning-based audio-visual media to improve thematic learning outcomes of Class III Cluster IV students Gadingrejo. The type of this research is Borg & Gall Modification Budiyono's development research (R&D). The population in this study was all Class III Cluster IV Gadingrejo students with a total of 176 students. The subjects of this study amounted to 21 students. The results of the study can be seen from the differences in thematic learning outcomes in the experimental class. The average pretest score for the experimental class was 54.28 and the posttest average score for the experimental class was 79.04. Likewise, it can be seen from the average value of N-Gain or increased knowledge of the experimental class is 0.4642 which is in the "Moderate" category, meaning that the development of audio-visual media based on discovery learning is effective for improving the thematic learning outcomes of Class III Students of Cluster IV Gadingrejo. The tcount results obtained a value of 3.7415 while t table (5%; n-1) is 2.0860, these results can be interpreted that the results of students' posttests are better than the pretest results of students who study using audio-visual media based on discovery learning.]]>

<![CDATA[The aim of the present research is to unveil how a “dissident” reading can be perceived by a Cultural Materialist Reading in the selected novel Sunset Park. Paul Auster is one of those writers who is always multitasking. His stories are never about just one thing, and you can never be sure what's going on behind the scenes until you turn the last page. In fact, the novel entails some clashes serve to conceptualize the term “dissidence” as observed in the approach of cultural materialism. Cultural materialists argue that literature does not reflect only one cultural formation and is able to entreat other ideologies and subcultures.. In Sunset Park, Paul Auster has skillfully exhibited such a verbal game to represent his own concerns regarding the subject of the identity, ideology and power caught in the novels, leading to a “dissident” reading which is potentially opposed and threatening to those social oppressive norms which the protagonists are suffered. Indeed, by investigating selected novel in details to find out how the cultural materialism notions can be applied to them, this research demonstrated that cultural materialism concepts are applicable to the characters and contents of selected novel.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to measure the level of effectiveness of applying blended learning-based learning models by utilizing ICT technology (Technology 4.0) to improve students' critical thinking skills in normal news life while maintaining adaptation to the industrial revolution 4.0. This behavior has positioned students to carry out blended learning that is oriented towards the continuous use of technology 4.0. This new habit encourages students to have a competitive level of adaptation in the more complex era of the industrial revolution, and students must also have adaptations with technology to overcome problems that exist in the current era So the researchers made a concern to instill and strengthen the skills and abilities needed by students to face the Industrial Revolution 4.O era in the current era. In discussing this research, Critical thinking skills are selected as skills that are needed by every individual student today, because Critical thinking skills enable students to involve various aspects and tools needed in learning and through a systematic thinking process. Researchers are trying to find a method that is appropriate to the current era, namely blended learning. Blended learning which has been implemented by the educational institution where this research takes place is a collaborative learning method between conventional methods and modern methods (technology 4.O). This method is implemented by implementing several cycles and meeting parts. The methods used and those given in developing critical thinking are combining problem solving methods with video, blogging, YouTube and zoom meeting. Thus, students will learn something different and new in the implementation of their learning. This will spur students to think critically. Thus, students will have optimally developed critical thinking skills and students will be able to adapt quickly to the current era of the industrial revolution 4.0.]]>

<![CDATA[This research described the textual dimension with Teun A. Van Dijk's model on the online news text discourse. The taken theme in the text was the contradiction against the realization of the pilgrimage to Indonesia. The data of the research consisted of utterances and dialogs on online media, such as Tempo.com, Cnnindonesia.com, and Republika.co.id. On the other hand, the data source was the online news page in the form of news discourse about the contradiction against the new regulations of the hajj pilgrimage by Indonesia's government. The applied method and data collection techniques were content analysis methods with the critical discourse analysis model of Teun A. Van Dijk. The results showed that the news portals of Tempo.com, Cnnindonesia.com, and Republika.co.id had the same themes about the news on contradiction against the new hajj pilgrimage rules in Indonesia. The news dominated most analyses in this Teun A. Van Dijk's model, starting from (1) the macrostructure, (2) the superstructure, and (3) the microstructure. The undetermined elements of the news were rhetoric microstructures, such as metaphors and expressions.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the application of translation shifts in Informative text that highlights Non-Fungible Token (NFT) issue. The theory used is Catford (1965) that stated there are two categories of shift namely level shift and category shift. The realization of descriptive qualitative method is seen on this data since the output is to emphasize the application of shift in each data. For analyzing data, it is used Miles and Huberman interactive mode to simplify the data presented. There have been twelve sentences which consist of several segments to be revealed its translation shifts. After each segment analyzed, it is found that all of translation shifts as proposed by Catford (1965) are applied, they are level shift, structure shift, class shift, unit/rank shift, and intra-system shift. The dominance found in structure shift because it is known that the language system in Indonesian as SL and English as TL is differed. The second position is by unit/rank shift. The data finding shows that there are several segments level up, but there is also changed in lower rank. The next one is in intra-system shift.The finding shows that the category of this shift is related to the tenses, plurality, and gerund after preposition which doesn’t occur in SL but exists in TL that takes part for this category. Meanwhile, the class shift is in the second lower rank because mostly, there is always equivalence of the segments used in the data. The least category is found in level shift where the lexicon is translated to grammar unit in TL.]]>

<![CDATA[Language is both a product and a very important medium of civilization. This condition makes the role and condition of language very crucial in civilization. Like the Betawi language, which is currently threatened with latent and slow extinction. It is feared that this condition will lead to the loss of Betawi's original values and culture, not its people biologically. This research tries to find an effective and efficient construction in preserving endangered languages. In the case of the Betawi language, an approach that pays attention to the cultural dynamics that occur within the Betawi community is the key to success. The conscientious situation of the Betawi people in loving and being passionate in defending their language is also an absolute requirement in the process of preserving this endangered language.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aimed to explore lecturers' perceptions of the impact of continuous assessment strategies on students' learning in colleges of education. A descriptive survey research design was utilized, and data were collected through a self-created cross-sectional survey questionnaire. The study involved 100 lecturers from two colleges of education in Anambra State, Nigeria. The questionnaire included items that assessed lecturers' perceptions of various aspects of continuous assessment strategies and their effects on students' learning outcomes. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including means and standard deviations. The results revealed that lecturers generally viewed continuous assessment as an integral part of the teaching-learning process and recognized its potential to provide comprehensive evaluations of students' learning. However, challenges related to curriculum coverage, workload, and assessment guidelines were identified. The study also found that lecturers varied in their incorporation and use of different continuous assessment strategies. These findings highlight the importance of understanding lecturers' perceptions and experiences in implementing continuous assessment strategies in colleges of education. The study contributes to the existing literature by providing insights into the perspectives of lecturers in Anambra State regarding the impact of continuous assessment on students' learning outcomes. The findings can inform educational policies and practices in colleges of education, promoting effective assessment methods that enhance students' learning experiences and outcomes.]]>

The research adopts a survey research approach to collect data from participants who are familiar with different translation tools. The survey, administered through Google Forms, was distributed to closed French student groups on social media platforms. The questionnaire included questions regarding participants' knowledge, experience, and actual usage of the tools to ensure valid responses. A total of 130 students participated in the survey, which consisted of 5 questions, including both open-ended and close-ended questions. The questionnaire aimed to reveal participants' backgrounds, and the nature of the impact observed when using computer-aided translation tools. Descriptive statistics were employed to analyze the data, while t-tests were conducted to test the formulated hypotheses. Microsoft Excel and Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) were used for data analysis. The results of the study indicate that computer-aided translation tools have a positive impact on translation efficiency, vocabulary assistance, and consistency in translations. The findings suggest that integrating these tools into French language curricula in Colleges of Education could enhance translation outcomes and improve language learning experiences. This study contributes to the understanding of the benefits and implications of computer-aided translation tools in the context of French to Igbo language translation.]]>
