Abstract

The importance of observation report text writing skills among vocational students cannot be underestimated, as it is a basic competency that supports the development of their academic literacy. However, at SMK Negeri 2 Pekanbaru, several obstacles were found such as low student motivation and lack of time for effective learning, which hindered the mastery of observation report text writing skills. This study aims to explore the effect of ChatGPT-based Constructivist Learning model in improving observation report text writing skills. Using mixed methods with sequential explanatory design, this study involved 68 students who were divided into experimental and control groups. The results showed that the ChatGPT-based Constructivist Learning model significantly improved the skill of writing observation report text compared to the conventional method. Qualitative data analysis also supported the quantitative findings that students and teachers faced challenges in digital literacy such as difficulties in understanding the user interface or how to interpret the feedback provided. However, this technology has great potential to improve writing skills if implemented well. This study concludes that the integration of ChatGPT-based Constructivist Learning model in learning can improve observation report text writing skills, although habituation in utilizing digital literacy is needed so that it can be implemented effectively and continuously.

Abstract

Learning Javanese script is considered an outdated and boring lesson. This paradigm of boring and obsolete Javanese script lessons must be changed into a modern, interesting, and enjoyable learning experience. One way to do this is by developing a Joyful Learning-based model for Javanese language instruction. Joyful Learning is a concept of enjoyable learning. The development of a Joyful Learning-based model for Javanese language instruction is urgent and necessary because the learning model currently used by students needs to employ the principles of Joyful Learning, resulting in students feeling bored, tired, and unmotivated to learn. Additionally, Javanese language instruction is viewed as a good means to develop the character of the nation's children, as it contains values of morality and politeness. The research design used is the ADDIE Research and Development design, with the steps of analyzing, designing, developing, implementing, and evaluating. This study uniquely integrates traditional games into the Joyful Learning model. The result of the study is creating a Joyful Learning-based model for Javanese script instruction. The components of this model include the social system, reaction principles, support system, instructional and incidental impacts, and syntagmatic. The syntagmatic model of Joyful Learning-based Javanese script instruction includes an introduction, material delivery, games for writing sentences, games for reading paragraphs in Javanese script, formative assessment, and reflection. The learning model has been tested at SMPN 12 Semarang. The results of the school trial indicate that the Joyful Learning-based Javanese script instruction model is effective for learning.

Abstract

The integration of the DeepL translation tool as a method to enhance students' writing skills in EFL classrooms holds great potential. Its capability to provide accurate, context-sensitive translations can aid students in expanding their vocabulary and understanding sentence structures. This study investigated the impact of using DeepL translation on EFL learners’ writing proficiency through an experimental approach. Two groups of senior high school students participated: an experimental group utilizing DeepL as a writing aid and a control group that did not. Both groups underwent pre-tests and post-tests to evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention. Conducted during the second semester of the 2023/2024 academic year, the quasi-experimental study involved 20 students as subjects. Data collection methods included tests focused on descriptive text writing and a questionnaire to gauge students’ responses. Instrument validity and reliability were verified, and the data were analyzed using SPSS 25.0. The findings revealed a significant improvement in the writing skills of students in both groups, indicating that while DeepL translation played a role in enhancing writing proficiency, other factors also contributed. Notably, the experimental group demonstrated a greater improvement compared to the control group, suggesting that DeepL translation provided a unique advantage. However, the results also highlighted the importance of combining digital tools like DeepL with effective teaching strategies to optimize learning outcomes. Overall, the study underscores the value of integrating technology in EFL classrooms while emphasizing the need for a holistic approach to writing instruction.

Abstract

In the context of the 2024 presidential election campaign, the proliferation of memes as a medium of public and supporter expression has become increasingly prominent. Memes serve as a vehicle for political commentary, often reflecting public sentiment and opinion. However, a significant concern arises from the pervasive use of linguistic impoliteness within these memes. This study aims to examine the phenomenon of linguistic impoliteness in memes related to the 2024 presidential election. Employing a descriptive qualitative research method, data were collected from a variety of meme images sourced from the internet. The analysis reveals that linguistic impoliteness in these memes manifests in several forms, including bald on-record impoliteness, positive impoliteness, negative impoliteness, sarcasm, and the withholding of politeness. These forms of impoliteness not only reflect the aggressive nature of political discourse but also have the potential to incite conflict among different political factions. The findings suggest a need for more responsible meme usage, particularly in politically charged contexts, to foster a healthier and more constructive political dialogue. The study concludes that while memes are a powerful tool for political expression, their potential to exacerbate tensions should not be overlooked. Implications for future research include exploring strategies for mitigating the negative impact of impoliteness in online political communication.

Abstract

Many studies have investigated Task-Based Language Teaching(TBLT) in language learning, but studies on the implementation of TBLT assisted by Digital Media in the current era have been rarely conducted by scholars. This study is intended to investigate students' perception of the implementation of TBLT assisted by Google Classroom, focusing on their learning experiences, the challenges they face, and the benefits and effectiveness of TBLT. This explanatory sequential mixed method involved 60 students of the Civil Engineering and Mechanical Engineering Study Programs at Eka Sakti University, Padang. The data of this study were gathered using a questionnaire and semi-structured interview. The quantitative data were analyzed quantitatively using descriptive statistics, while qualitative data were analyzed qualitatively using an interactive model. The results show that students’ perception of learning experiences, benefits, and effectiveness aspects were positive, while some students faced some challenges (e.g., task instruction, time allocation to do the tasks, internet connection, and work independently) in the challenge aspect in Indonesian language learning using TBLT assisted by Google Classroom. Although they faced some challenges, they overcame them by collaborating with their classmates in conducting institutions from the lecturer. Thus, it can be concluded that TBLT assisted by Google Classroom is effective in enhancing students’ Indonesian language skills and components, participation, learning interest, collaboration, and engagement. Thus, the TBLT approach integrated with Google Classroom is suggested to be employed by language instructors in teaching the Indonesian language course in Higher Education for non-Indonesian major students.
