Abstract

Arabic grammar learning often faces difficulties, especially for students with a non-boarding school background who are unfamiliar with the structure of sentences and terms in Arabic. This study aims to develop Arabic grammar teaching materials in printed media using the Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) approach to assist students in understanding Arabic rules. The method used in this study is the ADDIE development model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). The results show that the developed teaching materials received good validation from content and media experts, with scores of 84.76 and 84.61, respectively. The trial on students showed significant improvement, with the average pre-test score of 44 and post-test score of 68.33, and paired t-test results indicated a Sig. value of 0.000, signifying a significant change. The effectiveness of the teaching materials was also supported by a N-Gain Score of 0.4493, indicating moderate effectiveness. The student satisfaction score reached 79.23%, indicating that students were satisfied with the NLP-based teaching materials. However, improvements in material aspects and presentation methods are still needed to meet optimal competency standards.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the process of independent character education in Civic Education learning in Class V of SDN 2 Beji, Banyumas using the Merdeka Curriculum. The learning process is carried out in an integrative thematic manner, where learning combines various subjects in one theme, so that students can learn holistically and textually. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a phenomenological method. The main data sources come from interviews with Class V teachers, observations of Class V Civic Education learning, and interviews with Class V students, teachers, and principals, as well as documentation studies. The results of the study show that teaching independent character through Civic Education using the Merdeka Curriculum gives students the freedom to determine how to behave, process, think, and act creatively in order to develop each individual by determining their own destiny.

Abstract

This study investigates how “Fly Me to the Moon,” written by Bart Howard and popularized by Frank Sinatra, constructs meaning through a pragmastylistic lens. While often discussed for its historical and cultural significance, the song’s linguistic features—especially its use of speech acts, implicature, metaphor, repetition, and parallelism—remain underexplored. By integrating insights from pragmatics and stylistics, this research examines how these elements interact to enhance the song’s emotional resonance and poetic expression. The findings contribute to a broader understanding of how language and style work together to create meaning in song lyrics, demonstrating the artistic potential of everyday linguistic tools.

Abstract

The management and implementation of education in schools is very necessary for good coordination and cooperation between school personnel, principals, teachers, other education personnel, and with parents or school committees and school supervisors to realize the goals that have been set with the coordination of all parties to this school, so that the ideals of quality education can be achieved as they should be (Ikhsandi,  2021). In order for schools to achieve their goals effectively and efficiently, school principals must carry out managerial functions such as planning, organizing, directing, motivating, implementing, organizing, control, evaluation and innovation. A good principal is expected to shape the implementation of learning carried out by good teachers. If learning at school is good, it will certainly result in good achievements of children and teachers. With this in mind, a school principal is needed who is able to lead and exert influence effectively in carrying out his obligations. The growth of such quality Islamic schools is undoubtedly inspired by the Islamization of formal education. Among the Islamic schools that are massively spread in various regions in Indonesia are Integrated Islamic Schools (SIT). Quality schools are able to improve and create an effective and quality educational environment under the leadership of school principals who have expectations in improving the quality of learning, inspiring and motivating educators and educators, being able to increase partnerships, support resource management and be able to face educational challenges.

Abstract

Mobile gaming, as a rapidly expanding industry, has introduced unique linguistic elements into daily communication, particularly among university students. While these terms may support EFL learners in improving their language skills, research in this area remains limited. This study aims to explore the newly emerging terms in Mobile Legends and their potential impact on EFL university students’ vocabulary growth and reading comprehension. A total of 35 students participated in gameplay-based learning sessions, and data were gathered using vocabulary tests, comprehension tasks, and reflective journals through a mixed-method approach. The findings suggest that consistent exposure to gaming terms from Mobile Legends significantly broadens students’ vocabulary and enhances their understanding of reading materials. Additionally, students reported higher motivation and engagement when learning English through gaming. The study concludes that incorporating gaming language as supplementary material in the EFL classroom can play a valuable role in supporting vocabulary acquisition and improving comprehension outcomes.

Abstract

This study examines the stylistic differences between buzzer and non-buzzer hate comments on Prabowo’s Instagram posts during the 2024 Indonesian presidential election campaign. The objective is to identify distinct linguistic features used by buzzers and ordinary users in expressing hate or criticism. This qualitative descriptive research applies Searle’s Speech Act Theory and a comparative stylistic analysis. Data were collected from Instagram using manual classification and analyzed based on five speech act categories. The findings show that buzzer comments are typically short, slogan-like, emotionally charged, and repetitive, dominated by assertive speech acts. In contrast, non-buzzer comments are more varied in tone and form, reflecting personal opinion, satire, and critical reflection. This study concludes that buzzer discourse tends to serve persuasive and propagandistic purposes, while non-buzzer discourse reflects more authentic and individual political expression.

Abstract

Character development is a literary element that refers to the process through which characters are shaped with traits that establish their role and presence within the narrative world. This research aims to analyze the character development of Jinx in Arcane Season one (2021) using film theories by Petrie Boggs, with a particular focus on identifying the irony that shapes. A descriptive qualitative approach is used due to the use of narrative structure, visuals, and dialogue. The study identifies six key moments in Jinx’s development across episodes 1 to 9. Each moment is marked by a specific type of irony: dramatic irony, irony of situation, irony of character, irony of setting, irony of tone, and cosmic irony. This irony serves to deepen the audience’s understanding of her complex identity shift from Powder to Jinx. This study concludes that Arcane constructs Jinx’s character development as an ironic tragedy. Each ironic turn in the story underscores the tension between who Jinx was, how others perceived her, and who she chooses to become.

Abstract

Self-confidence plays a crucial role in second language learning, particularly in enhancing speaking ability. In many senior high schools in Indonesia, English is taught as a foreign language (EFL), and students often struggle with speaking due to low self-confidence. This study investigates the correlation between self-confidence and speaking ability among eleventh grade students at MA Nurul Muttahidah Pinotu. Employing a quantitative research approach with a correlational design, the study involved 25 students as the total sample. The instruments used were a self-confidence questionnaire consisting of 20 items based on a Likert scale and a speaking test assessing five aspects: pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, fluency, and comprehension. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 24, including normality and linearity tests, followed by Pearson Product Moment correlation analysis. The results revealed a statistically significant positive correlation (r = 0.505, p = 0.010) between students’ self-confidence and their speaking ability. This finding suggests that the more confident students are, the better their speaking performance. However, the small sample size is a limitation of this study, and further research with larger samples is recommended. These results highlight the importance of fostering students’ self-confidence to improve speaking skills in EFL contexts, especially in underrepresented educational settings such as senior high schools.

Abstract

The present study evaluates how the integration of the Montessori Method and Anki Digital Flashcards influences the English speaking proficiency of first-year junior high school students at Darul Ulum School, Thailand. A one-group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental approach was utilized with 20 students participating.The intervention combined experiential, student-centered activities based on the Montessori approach with the digital learning features of Anki, which utilizes spaced repetition to enhance vocabulary retention and pronunciation. Data were collected through oral pretests and posttests, focusing on three indicators: vocabulary, fluency, and pronunciation. The findings revealed a notable improvement in the mean score, rising from 79.55 in the pretest to 90.00 in the posttest, resulting in a mean gain of 10.45 points. Statistical analysis using a paired t-test indicated that this improvement was statistically significant (p = 0.001). Observations indicated that students became more confident, fluent, and accurate in their spoken English. The integration of Montessori’s interactive methods with Anki’s digital repetition system created a more active, engaging, and inclusive learning environment. This study concludes that the combined approach is highly effective in enhancing speaking skills for beginner-level EFL learners and offers a promising model for language instruction that meets the needs of today’s digital-native students.
