Abstract

This study explores the relationship between teachers’ reinforcement skills and Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) personality types. The study examines how teachers can utilize the 16 MBTI personality types (e.g., INTJ, ENTP, ISFJ, ESFP) to support students in the classroom. The shift to Independent Curriculum, aimed at improving educational standards, presents new challenges and opportunities, particularly in English language teaching. Observations at UPTD SMPN 4 Gunungsitoli highlighted the need for creative reinforcement skills for 31 seventh-grade students in their developmental stages. Using a descriptive qualitative methodology, data were collected through observations and interviews with English teachers to determine students’ MBTI profiles and analyze their reinforcement needs. Findings suggest that MBTI-based reinforcement, whether verbal, nonverbal, positive, or negative, can positively influence students’ personality and learning processes. The study concludes that MBTI can serve as a valuable tool for educators in tailoring reinforcement strategies to foster students’ character development and deeper learning.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the use of slang words in Jonah Hill's Mid90s (2018) through a synchronic approach. By adopting Allan and Burridge's (2006) theory of slang categories, Partridge's (2006) classification of slang functions, and Watt's (1984) paradigm of slang representation, this study identifies different types of slang used in the Movie's dialog. It explores their functions in marking teenage identity. Qualitative analysis of the dialog data revealed four main categories of slang: fresh and creative, imitative, flippant, and clipping. The findings also identified three main functions of slang in the movie: society slang, solidarity slang, and trade slang. Further analysis shows how the characters' use of slang reflects and reinforces social dynamics and group identity in skateboarding culture. This research contributes to sociolinguistics by providing a new perspective on the representation of language variation as a marker of youth identity in the era.
