Abstract

This research analyzes the phenomenon of amelioration on concrete nouns in the novels Layar Terkembang by Sutan Takdir Alisjahbana and Sitti Nurbaya by Marah Roesli. Amelioration is the process of changing the meaning of a word that leads to a more positive connotation. The purpose of this study is to identify the forms of amelioration, the positive connotations formed, and how these changes in meaning reflect the social and cultural context of colonial Indonesia. The research method used is corpus linguistics with documentation techniques through the KORTARA (Korpus Nusantara) application to identify frequency patterns and word collocation in literary texts. The results showed that there were 57 words undergoing amelioration that reflected changes in social views, culture, and religious values. For example, the word "khalikulalam" in Sitti Nurbaya's novel has undergone improvements, a shift in meaning that increases its value and respect; The word "virgin" in the novel Layar Terkembang carries a more subtle and respectful connotation, describing a young woman who is seen not only by her status but also associated with beauty, purity. The words not only have basic meanings, but also additional connotations that symbolize respect, sanctity, spiritual power, and cultural pride. The amelioration of these concrete nouns shows the changes in colonial society's perspective towards social roles and cultural values in daily life. The findings support the theory that amelioration is closely related to broader social dynamics, where words with high moral and cultural values tend to experience an increase in meaning. This research is expected to contribute to the study of Indonesian linguistics and semantic education, as well as add to the understanding of the interaction between language and social values in society.

Abstract

Teachers have not optimally used technology-based learning media and have not implemented a Teaching at the Right Level-based learning approach. causing students' understanding of descriptive text to be low. This study aims to develop, test the feasibility, and effectiveness of Teaching at the Right Level-based flipbook learning media to improve the understanding of fifth grade students. This type of research is research and development with the Borg and Gall model. The subjects of this study were 30 fifth grade Elementary students. Data collection techniques used tests (pretest and posttest) and non-tests (observation, interview, questionnaire). Data analysis techniques using normality test, t test and N-Gain test. The results showed: (1) Teaching at the Right Level-based flipbooks were developed using the canva application; (2) the results of the validity test of material experts, media experts, teachers, and students received a very feasible category; (3) effectiveness is shown from the results of analy-ing pretest and posttest scores. The results of the t test get a sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.00 <0.005. The conclusion in this studv shows that the development of learning media flipbooks based on Teaching at the Right Level was successfully developed, very feasible, and effectively used to improve the understanding of descriptive text for fifth grade Elementary students.

Abstract

The study examines how VR enhances self-directed learning in EFL by overcoming traditional methods’ limitations, boosting autonomy and engagement. While previous studies highlighted VR's positive effects on student engagement in language learning, its impact on SDL remains underexplored, with limited quantitative evidence and scarce qualitative insights into subjective experiences. This study used a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative analysis to identify measurable trends and qualitative insights for a deeper understanding of VR’s influence on SDL. A survey of 194 EFL students used VR and SDL questionnaires, analyzed through simple linear regression. To enrich findings, semi-structured interviews with 13 participants explored their experiences. The findings showed that there is a positive effect of VR use on SDL, as indicated by the regression coefficient of 0.945, meaning that a 1% increase in the level of VR use is related to a 0.945 increase in self-directed learning p<0.05. The ANOVA results confirmed the reliability of the regression model in explaining the relationship between VR and SDL, with a significance of 0.000. R-squared value of 0.927, indicating that 92.7% of SDL variability is explained by VR. This demonstrates VR’s strong enhancement of SDL in EFL students, improving their autonomy and engagement in language learning. Adjusted R-squared value of 0.926 further confirms VR’s significant impact on SDL. Qualitative findings identified three key benefits of VR: higher engagement and motivation, improved access and flexibility, and cognitive reflection through self-reflection. The findings highlight VR's effectiveness as an active learning strategy that promotes independent learning by enhancing learner autonomy and engagement. In EFL contexts, VR-based strategies support interactive, self-paced learning, contributing to increased motivation and language retention.

Abstract

Translating news reports can hardly be free from subjectivity, especially in relation to a conflict, since the opposing ideology often creates friction that necessitates translators to assume complex and multifaceted roles. The concept of positioning refers to participants’ attitudes or stances toward the event or other participants in the event which significantly influences the interpretation of a text. The objective of this study is to examine the positioning regarding Hamas in a parallel corpus-based Israel-Palestine conflict. The corpus comprises 160 articles that have been translated from English to Indonesian. The researcher applied the evaluative model proposed by Pan and Liao (2020), that integrated CDA (Fairclough, 2013), Appraisal Theory (Martin & White, 2005), and Narrative Theory (Baker, 2006). It was found that the translators intentionally and carefully (re)positioned of Hamas by implementing a discursive strategy called redacted labelling in their actual activities. This can be done by omitting, adding, softening, and even strengthening the word construction embedded in these elements. The activities were motivated by the political stance of the news organization as determined by its official identity, media discourse counterpoints, the situation of the political of Indonesia toward the conflict, and their expectations of the reaction of the target audience. Examining news translation using CDA adds to translation theory by providing a critical perspective on how non-linguistic elements like ideology, power, and culture influence the translation process. It provides a more in-depth understanding of the translator's position as an agent who translates meanings, values, and worldviews as well as words.

Abstract

This study investigates how teachers employ appraisal attitude resources—specifically affect, judgment, and appreciation—in their written comments on primary students' report cards, using the analytical lens of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL). Drawing on a qualitative phenomenological case study design, the research analyzed 30 teacher comments drawn from three subject areas: Mathematics, Language Arts, and Mandarin. The data collection also involved unstructured interviews with teachers to gain deeper insight into their comment-writing practices and underlying intentions. The analysis revealed a marked dominance of judgment resources, with 69 instances noted, which primarily conveyed evaluations of students' capabilities, behaviors, and attitudes toward learning. This was followed by 32 instances of appreciation, used to recognize the quality of students' work or learning outcomes. The least frequent were affect resources, with only 15 instances, indicating that emotional engagement or references to students' feelings were not a central focus in most comments. This distribution underscores a pedagogical emphasis on assessing students through their actions and academic performances rather than their emotional experiences. The study concludes by emphasizing the need for greater awareness of the linguistic resources teachers use in feedback and suggests that professional development in appraisal language could help teachers craft more holistic, meaningful, and student-centered evaluations.

Abstract

The disparity in educational quality between urban and rural areas in Indonesia significantly impacts English language learning in remote schools. This study explores the key challenges English teachers face in rural settings and the pedagogical strategies they employ to overcome them. Using a qualitative research design with semi-structured interviews, five English teachers from various rural schools in Nusa Tenggara Barat were interviewed. Thematic analysis revealed several core challenges, including inadequate infrastructure, limited internet connectivity, a shortage of qualified teachers, and insufficient supervision and motivation. Despite these issues, teachers have adopted strategies such as understanding local community needs, applying inclusive teaching methods, leveraging limited technology, and engaging in professional development. These findings highlight the urgent need for targeted policy intervention to improve English instruction in rural areas. The study provides valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and researchers interested in equitable education reform. Therefore, the researcher believed that this study is beneficial for future researchers and readers, particularly in educational contexts.

Abstract

This study employed Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis, focusing on the discursive construction of child molestation using the transitivity process. The research aimed to (1) describe transitivity patterns in child molestation news articles published by The Jakarta Post, (2) examine how these patterns constructed the discourse, and (3) explore why such construction occurred. A qualitative content analysis was used to analyze clauses from five selected news texts. The study found that the most dominant transitivity processes were verbal and material. Verbal processes appeared 57 times (43.8%), while material processes occurred 48 times (36.9%), showing only a 6.9% difference. Verbal process verbs included reported, told, accused, said, and announced, while material process verbs included molested, abused, and arrested. These findings indicate that the news writers constructed the narratives based on information from police, witnesses, and victims to outline the chronology of the molestation incidents. The reports often portrayed children as the affected participants, with perpetrators positioned as the main actors responsible for the events. Through analyzing these transitivity patterns, the researcher identified how socio-cultural ideologies were embedded in the discourse. The texts implied that minors are perceived as vulnerable and lacking full legal protection. Moreover, the narratives challenged the common perception that women are always the victims of sexual abuse, showing that children of both genders could be victims. The perpetrators were often figures with authority in schools and the psychological impact on the victims was highlighted throughout the texts.

Abstract

This study adopts an experiential analysis approach to examine how sexual harassment is represented in opinion columns published by The Jakarta Post. Utilizing Halliday’s Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) as the theoretical framework, the research focuses on exploring how language is structured to convey experiential meaning, particularly through the transitivity system. As a form of qualitative and descriptive research, this study investigates online news texts with the aim of uncovering how linguistic choices reflect and construct social realities. The central analytical focus lies in identifying types of processes, participant roles, and circumstantial elements within the clauses of the texts. These components are crucial for understanding how actions, events, and relationships are framed in relation to gender and power dynamics. Through the analysis of 436 clauses, the findings indicate that material and relational processes are the most frequently used. Material processes reflect actions and events, while relational processes emphasize classification, attribution, and identification. Their prevalence suggests that opinion columnists highlight both the concrete experiences of harassment and the ways individuals and groups are labeled or characterized. This dominance illustrates how language is strategically employed to both narrate and evaluate incidents of sexual harassment. By analyzing these linguistic features, the study sheds light on how media discourse contributes to shaping public understanding and societal attitudes toward gender-related issues. Ultimately, the study provides valuable insight into how opinion columns, as influential media texts, can reinforce or challenge dominant ideologies, thus playing a critical role in public discourse surrounding sexual harassment.

Abstract

Integrating writing instruction with local cultural elements is essential for improving literacy outcomes that resonate with students' lived experiences and cultural identities. However, field observations reveal that such integration remains underutilized in many educational contexts, including at SD Negeri Dinoyo 2 Malang, East Java—a school situated in a region known for its ceramic industry. This classroom action research aimed to enhance students' writing skills using the culturally rooted strategy titled "Dinoyo Ceramics and I." Conducted over two cycles with 25 students from Class 5A, the study began by introducing students to Dinoyo ceramic products through physical artifacts and visual media showcasing their historical significance. Students were then encouraged to describe these items in terms of their appeal, function, and value as souvenirs or treasured objects. Based on this exposure, students generated writing ideas under the theme "Dinoyo Ceramics and I," which they first organized into outlines and then developed into full compositions. In the second cycle, imaginative elements were incorporated to enrich the outlines, and students were guided to present each idea in a well-structured paragraph. This approach enabled students to creatively weave personal experiences into compelling narratives that retained Dinoyo ceramics as a central motif. The strategy sparked greater engagement, as students connected deeply with a topic rooted in their cultural environment. The findings highlight the importance of recognizing students’ everyday experiences as meaningful content for writing. Thus, educators should consider incorporating local cultural themes into writing instruction to build more relevant, motivating, and expressive learning experiences.

Abstract

This research investigates how language use and gender segregation in the SMes of Pempek 26 Ilir Palembang contribute to the representation of gender identity. This phenomenon is significant, as workplaces in Indonesia, especially in Palembang, persistently display notable gender segregation. In the quest for gender parity, employees’ identities are continuously replicated, with language being a crucial role. This qualitative research utilizes documentation, observation, and interviews for data collection. Meanwhile, the Miles and Huberman approach, that entails data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing, is used for data analysis. Butler’s theory of gender performativity serves as the analytical lens, adopting a case study approach. The results show that most of employees and managers of SMEs in the Pempek 26 Ilir area aware the existing gender segregation. Stereotypes are the cause of this segregation. This division results from assumptions that say women belong in jobs requiring endurance and attention to detail, while males belong in jobs that are more physically demanding. The language used by employees is courteous but informal, and the subjects of conversation differ greatly. Male and female employees typically focus on work or interests, while female employees are more talkative about personal and family problems. Overall, these findings show that heteronormative gender performativity is reinforced in the work environment of Indonesian SMEs, especially in Pempek 26 Ilir Palembang, where males are seen as stronger and more reserved and women as weaker but more communicative.
