Abstract

This study aims to describe the improvement of students’ cerkak (Javanese short story) writing skills and digital literacy through the use of blogs in madrasah enviroment. The research is motivated by low interest in Javanese literature and creative obstacles found in conventional methods. Initial data from 18 students at MTsN Kota Madiun showed sub-optimal results, with only 2 students achieving the "excellent" category, while the majority fell into the "good" (10 students) and "fair" (6 students) categories. A mixed-methods approach was used, combining interviews with writing performance tests on blogs. The results showed a significant transformation; after guidance, 10 students reached the "excellent" category, 7 students were "good," and only 1 student remained "fair." This study concludes that blog media effectively stimulates creativity and substantially improves students' cerkak writing skills compared to conventional methods.

Abstract

Indonesia has a diversity of tribes, races, religions, and cultures that are reflected in local traditions that are passed down from generation to generation, such as the gowokan tradition in Babagan Village, Lasem District, Rembang Regency. Babagan Village which is located in the Lasem cultural area is known as part of the historical area in Lasem, Rembang Regency, Central Java, which has a wealth of traditions and cultural acculturation. Tradition is not only understood as a habitual practice that is passed down from generation to generation, but also as a symbol system that represents the values, beliefs, and outlook on life of the supporting community. This research aims to describe the practice of the gowokan tradition and analyze the sign system contained in it. The Grand theory used is Ferdinand de Saussure's structural semiotics regarding the relationship between the signifier and signified, with a theory supporting the post-structuralist perspective that states that one marker can produce a compound marker. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method with an interpretative approach. Research data in the form of informant speech, procession series, presentation symbols, and visual documentation. The data source was obtained from the village head, Mudin, traditional practitioners, and local elders through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Data analysis is carried out through data reduction, categorization, data presentation, and interpretation of meaning using syntagmatic and paradigmatic relations. The research results show that every element in the gowokan procession such as sega liwet, sayur kunci bayem, kunir rice, and dhuwit klithik is a signifier that has a signified value in the form of gratitude, hope, prosperity, and social harmony. The procession of throwing udhik-udhikan becomes a symbol of sharing sustenance and strengthening communal solidarity. This finding confirms that the gowokan tradition not only functions as a thanksgiving ritual, but also as a system of cultural signs that contains symbolic meanings that can be interpreted in layers by the community. Thus, the gowokan tradition can be understood as a cultural text that represents the Babagan people's view of life about the balance between humans, God, and their social community.

Abstract

This study examines Mompi’ohupi wedding ritual practiced by Saluan community in Batui, Banggai Regency, Central Sulawesi. Its tradition is deeply embedded in semiotic meanings and meticulously preserved to this day. The documentation scarcity and inadequate comprehension of the cultural symbols embodied in the ritual raise concerns about the potential erosion of cultural identity in the face of modernization. In this study, it aims to identify and analyze semiotic meanings of the signs within  the ritual by applying Peirce’s theoretical framework. A qualitative research design was employed, with data  collected through in-depth interviews and documentation involving traditional leaders and community members. The findings reveal that each element of the ritual including tampok leaves, puring flowers, popoloti leaves, pupur, suhangbalu grass, white rice, lamps, an umbrella, and doda leaves carries symbolic values representing purity, protection, harmony, prosperity, and spiritual enlightenment. This study contributes to preservation of local cultural heritage, enriches scholarly discourse in anthropology and semiotics, and put more sustainable efforts into protecting traditional practices amid the dynamics of globalization.

Abstract

The educational process is not merely the implementation of learning for the transfer of knowledge but also the instilling of character values in students. Likewise, in Javanese language learning, the implementation also includes the instilling of Javanese cultural character values. One of these is in the material on speaking in krama alus language. In krama alus there are values of politeness, humility, respect for others, and also self-respect. The existing problem is that krama alus language is increasingly abandoned by the younger generation, including students in schools. This study discusses the axiological aspects of the philosophy of science in krama alus language, which includes the benefits of applying krama alus language for internalizing values to students in schools, as well as an elaboration of the application of value-based learning theory. The study employed library research. The results indicate that, in general, the younger generation, particularly students, are abandoning the traditional krama alus (higher) language and shifting to Indonesian or ngoko (lower-regular) because they are perceived as easier and more practical. Consequently, the values inherent in this language are slowly disappearing. To address this, efforts are needed to maintain the existence of this language, which indirectly maintains the character values inherent in students. This can be done by familiarizing students with the use of krama alus at school and providing role models for students in this language from teachers.

Abstract

The era of digital disruption presents complex challenges for the acquisition of mother tongue in early childhood (golden age), especially Javanese which has an upload-ungguh system. This study aims to describe the implications of gadget use on the influence of Javanese language development in children aged three to six (3-6) years in Karangayar Regency. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Data analysis was conducted interactively to map children's speech and behavior patterns. The results show that high intensity of gadget use without supervision causes degradation of pragmatic abilities, which manifests in passive verbal responses, linguistic interference (code mixing), and imitation of aggressive diction from online content and games. However, positively, gadgets can potentially become instruments of cultural preservation if used to access educational content that enriches children's Krama Javanese lexicon. The conclusion of this study confirms that the role of parental mediation (digital parenting) is a determinant variable in maintaining the balance between digital literacy and ethics.

Abstract

This study analyzes the Baode oral tradition of the Banggai community in Lumbi-lumbia Village, South Buko District, Central Sulawesi, through the perspectives of anthropolinguistics macrostructure, superstructure, and microstructure. Employing a descriptive qualitative method with interviews, observations, and recordings as data collection techniques, the research draws on anthropolinguistics as the theoretical framework. The findings show that at the macrostructure level, the Baode text highlights themes of respect for ancestors, the preservation of customs, and the transmission of moral values across generations. The superstructure is organized into a coherent sequence of opening, body, and closing, designed to facilitate audience comprehension and to emphasize the moral messages of the performance. At the microstructure level, lexical and connotative analyses reveal the use of local vocabulary, metaphors, and repetition as expressions of politeness, cultural identity, and resistance to modernization. Overall, the study demonstrates that Baode is more than a form of entertainment: it represents the local wisdom of the Banggai people, functioning as a medium of cultural preservation, identity reinforcement, and social solidarity that requires revitalization in the face of globalization and declining intergenerational transmission.
