Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis dinamika konflik sosial antar pedagang di kawasan belakang FKIP Untirta Ciwaru, Kota Serang, dengan menggunakan perspektif teori konflik Lewis A. Coser. Kawasan tersebut merupakan ruang ekonomi informal dengan intensitas interaksi yang tinggi, sehingga berpotensi memunculkan konflik, seperti persaingan lokasi, perebutan pelanggan, dan perbedaan kepentingan. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode studi kasus melalui wawancara mendalam terhadap sejumlah pedagang. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa konflik yang terjadi tidak hanya bersifat destruktif, tetapi juga memiliki fungsi positif. Sesuai pandangan Coser, konflik berperan dalam memperjelas batas peran, menegosiasikan aturan informal, serta membangun kembali hubungan sosial yang lebih stabil setelah terjadi ketegangan. Konflik umumnya dipicu oleh faktor ekonomi, ketidakpastian ruang dagang, serta minimnya regulasi dari pihak kampus dan pemerintah setempat. Meskipun demikian, para pedagang tetap mampu mempertahankan hubungan sosial melalui komunikasi, kompromi, dan penyesuaian terhadap norma lokal. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan kontribusi teoretis dalam kajian konflik sosial pada sektor ekonomi informal serta menjadi masukan praktis bagi pedagang, pihak kampus, dan masyarakat dalam menciptakan lingkungan yang lebih harmonis dan tertib.

Abstract

Perkembangan teknologi informasi dan komunikasi pada era digital telah membawa perubahan yang signifikan dalam berbagai aspek kehidupan masyarakat. Internet tidak hanya digunakan sebagai sarana komunikasi dan pertukaran informasi, tetapi juga menjadi ruang bagi berbagai aktivitas sosial, ekonomi, dan hiburan. Salah satu fenomena yang muncul seiring dengan perkembangan teknologi tersebut adalah meningkatnya praktik perjudian online yang dapat diakses dengan mudah melalui internet dan perangkat digital. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memahami fenomena perjudian online di kalangan mahasiswa serta bagaimana praktik tersebut dipahami dalam kehidupan sosial mahasiswa. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode deskriptif. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui wawancara, observasi, dan studi dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kemudahan akses internet, pengaruh lingkungan pergaulan, serta paparan informasi melalui media sosial menjadi faktor yang mempengaruhi keterlibatan mahasiswa dalam aktivitas perjudian online. Dalam perspektif sosiologi, fenomena ini dapat dijelaskan melalui teori anomi yang menjelaskan adanya ketegangan antara tujuan sosial dan sarana yang tersedia, serta teori interaksionisme simbolik yang menekankan proses pemaknaan individu dalam tindakan sosial. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan peningkatan literasi digital agar mahasiswa dapat lebih bijak dalam memanfaatkan teknologi dan terhindar dari berbagai aktivitas yang berpotensi menimbulkan dampak negatif dalam kehidupan sosial.

Abstract

Social Media Fatigue (SMF) is a negative psychological consequence of excessive social media use, characterized by feelings of being overwhelmed, frustration, and the desire to withdraw. Valid instruments for measuring this construct within the Indonesian context remain limited. This study aims to adapt and examine the validity and reliability of the Indonesian version of the Social Media Fatigue Scale (SMFS) among emerging adults. This instrumental study involved active social media users aged eighteen to thirty nine years. The adaptation process followed International Test Commission guidelines, including forward backward translation, expert review, and readability testing. Construct validity was tested using Exploratory Factor Analysis and Confirmatory Factor Analysis. Reliability was estimated using Cronbach Alpha coefficients. Exploratory Factor Analysis yielded a three factor structure that differed from the original model. Confirmatory Factor Analysis indicated that the three factor model did not achieve adequate goodness of fit. Reliability analysis revealed low to moderate internal consistency. The findings suggest that the Indonesian version of SMFS lacks adequate construct validity and reliability, highlighting the need for cultural adaptation or development of an indigenous instrument to measure social media fatigue in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study investigates the challenges experienced by students in authentic assessment of speaking skills and examines how these challenges influence their speaking performance. Speaking is considered one of the most important yet difficult skills in English learning, especially when students are required to perform in real communication tasks. The study was conducted at SMA Swasta Santo Yoseph Medan, involving 32 students of class XI-4. A qualitative descriptive design was applied to explore students’ experiences in depth. The data were collected through questionnaire as the main instrument, supported by interviews and classroom observation to strengthen the findings. The data were analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that students face several major challenges, including anxiety, lack of confidence, difficulty in organizing ideas, limited vocabulary, and confusion about assessment criteria. These challenges significantly affect students’ speaking performance by causing hesitation, reducing fluency, and making their speech less clear. In addition, classroom environment and time limitation also contribute to students’ difficulties. However, support from teachers and classmates, as well as clear understanding of assessment criteria, can help improve students’ performance. Therefore, it is important for teachers to create a supportive learning environment and provide clear guidance to help students perform better in authentic speaking assessment.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of performance-based authentic assessment in speaking recount text activities and analyze students' perceptions of this method. The research was conducted at SMA Swasta Bandung Medan, utilizing 10 student respondents as the primary data source. A quantitative descriptive design was applied, employing a survey method for data collection. Data were gathered through an 18-item Likert scale questionnaire distributed via Google Form. The collected data were analyzed utilizing descriptive statistics to calculate mean scores and percentages. The findings establish that storytelling of personal experiences is the dominant type of assessment utilized (100% frequency). Furthermore, students hold a 'Very Positive' overall perception of this assessment method, evidenced by a total mean score of 4.02 out of 5.00. The highest-rated indicator was the authenticity of the assessment (mean 4.17). The implications of this study confirm that performance-based authentic assessment is positively perceived and effectively supports student learning. However, the study also highlights crucial pedagogical and psychological implications, specifically the necessity for educators to actively manage student performance anxiety, mitigate classroom noise, and allocate adequate preparation time.
