Abstract

Literature has a very strategic role in teaching cultural values to students since it contains values reflecting people's lives. However, along with the development of the globalization era, local culture has begun to disappear due to changes in people's lifestyles. Therefore, literary literacy based on local wisdom needs to be introduced to the younger generation as educational medium to build society with character. This study aims to explore the practice of local wisdom-based literary literacy in language and literature learning at Junior High School level in Ternate City. The study uses qualitative design involving language teachers (Indonesian and English Teachers). Data collection techniques are carried out through observation, inter-views, and documentation. The results indicate that the teachers have implemented local wisdom-based literary literacy in language and literature learning. The learning resources used by teachers are in the form of printed and non-printed learning re-sources. Printed learning resources used are books, magazines, and newspapers. While non-printed learning resources are in the form of Compact Disc, TV, YouTube, historical tours, nature tours, figures, heroes, and libraries. The teachers develop their own teaching materials by adopting local wisdom content taken from the regional library and downloaded from the internet because the school library does not provide literary books with stories about the local wisdom of North Maluku. The materials used include appreciation of poetry and folklores about local wisdom of North Maluku. The learning strategies are applied in three stages called before reading, when reading, and after reading. The results showed that literary literacy activities based in local wisdom values have been implemented by teachers, so the students can developing their characters.

Abstract

Pronunciation refers to the manner in which humans articulate the sounds of a particular language. Language proficiency is crucial for effective communication with others. In the event that our pronunciation is inadequate, we may have difficulties in being comprehended, regardless of the accuracy of our grammar and vocabulary. The objective of this research is to identify errors in the production of Velar consonants by second-semester students enrolled in the English education study program at Muhammadiyah University Purworejo during the academic year 2023/2024. This study employs a descriptive qualitative research methodology. The research focused on second semester students studying English language education. The researcher selected a sample of 20 students for the investigation. The researchers used a pronunciation test as the device to get the data. The investigation revealed a significant occurrence of mispronunciations in the final position of the /g/ sound. Students often exhibited a proclivity to replace the /k/ sound with the /g/ pronunciation, as exemplified in terms like "big" and "beg." The consonant /g/ in the last position is unquestionably a strange consonant for Indonesian students. As a result, they often replaced that sound with the /k/ sound. Furthermore, students faced difficulties in determining the sound of vowels or consonants that come after encountering the consonant /?/. For example, the phonetic representation of /?f????r/ changes to /?f??d??r/, while the phonetic representation of /?s???r/ turns into /s??g?r.

Abstract

This research investigates the issue of multiculturalism in Khaled Hosseini's novel The Kite Runner (2003). The novel narrates the friendship, betrayal, and redemption between two boys (Amir, who is from the Pashtun tribe, and Hassan, who is from the Hazara tribe) in Afghanistan, separated by social backgrounds and traumatic incidents. This research applies the Hybridity theory proposed by Homi K. Bhabha (1994), an Indian literary theorist and professor recognized for his contributions to postcolonial studies. A qualitative method is preferred as textual analysis heavily permeates the research. The main objective of this research is to center on Hosseini's presentation of the main characters in the novel, Amir and Hassan in the context of multiculturalism's failure in Afghanistan. The findings illustrate that the failure of multiculturalism between the Pashtun and Hazara tribes in the novel encounters challenges which include discrimination, persecution & violence, and systemic injustices. Efforts such as Building Inter-Ethnic Friendship and Solidarity and Against Discrimination and Injustice to overcome the failure of multiculturalism between Pashtuns and Hazaras fail due to the complexity of structural factors, limited access to healthcare and education, the persistence of violence and discrimination, differences in values and culture, and stereotypes and social practices in Afghan society.
