Abstract

This study addresses the growing disconnection between scientific health promotion and traditional cultural practices in multicultural societies. In Indonesia, particularly in West Sumatra, indigenous health knowledge rooted in Minangkabau philosophy has long emphasized balance, respect, and communal well-being. However, in the context of globalized sports nutrition and cross-cultural communication, these values are often marginalized or misinterpreted. The challenge lies in integrating ethical communication with traditional health practices, such as the consumption of stingless bee honey (Galo-galo), into modern health and sports systems without reducing them to mere commodities. The research aims to explore the intersection of cross-cultural communication ethics, multicultural values, and sports nutrition by examining the functional role of West Sumatra honey as both a nutritional and cultural medium. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the study analyzes how Minangkabau health traditions can be ethically conveyed in pluralistic contexts to promote athlete performance and public well-being. Laboratory findings indicate that West Sumatra stingless bee honey exhibits superior phytochemical properties, with total phenolic content ranging from 39.98 to 81.02 mg GAE/g and α-glucosidase inhibition of 67.6%, confirming its strong antioxidant and anti-hyperglycemic potential. In applied sports contexts, supplementation with Galo-galo honey correlates with stable blood glucose levels and faster heart rate recovery (HRR) in rowing and soccer athletes. By integrating Minangkabau philosophical ethics, such as duduk samo randah and tagak samo tinggi, the study proposes a model of ethical communication grounded in empathy and cultural humility. The results underscore that fostering cross-cultural communication ethics through traditional resources not only enhances physical performance and health but also strengthens social harmony and cultural resilience in an increasingly globalized era.

Abstract

Objective: This study investigates the effectiveness of integrating Self-Directed Learning (SDL) principles into a Flipped Classroom model to improve English as a Foreign Language (EFL) reading comprehension among undergraduate students. Furthermore, it examines whether students' digital literacy levels moderate this relationship. Methodology: A quasi-experimental 2x2 factorial design was employed involving 60 second-year students from the English Education Study Program at Universitas PGRI Sumatera Barat. Participants were assigned to an experimental group (n=30) taught using a Flipped Classroom model explicitly designed with SDL scaffolding, and a control group (n=30) taught using an A La Carte blended model. The intervention spanned eight weeks. Data were collected using a validated reading comprehension test (based on Barrett’s Taxonomy) and a standardized digital literacy questionnaire, then analyzed using Two-Way ANOVA. Findings: The results revealed a statistically significant main effect for the learning model (p < .05). Students in the Flipped Classroom-SDL group demonstrated superior reading comprehension compared to the A La Carte group. Interestingly, digital literacy did not show a significant main effect or interaction effect, suggesting that the pedagogical structure of SDL effectively supports learners regardless of their technical proficiency. The study concludes that the deliberate integration of SDL strategies, such as goal setting and self-monitoring, within the Flipped Classroom significantly enhances students' ability to comprehend complex EFL texts, overcoming potential barriers posed by low digital literacy.

Abstract

The rapid evolution of digital communication has transformed linguistic interaction into a spatially distributed phenomenon, wherein meaning emerges through multimodal cues embedded in virtual environments. This study examines the psychological implications of spatial cybertext environments, interactive, hypertextual spaces within social media, on psycholinguistics students who navigate these platforms as both users and analysts of language. Grounded in pragmatic and psycholinguistic frameworks, this research employs a qualitative descriptive approach to explore how spatial discourse structures, multimodal symbols, and digital affordances shape users’ cognitive and emotional engagement. Data were collected from in-depth interviews, participant observations, and online discourse samples drawn from academic social media interactions. The findings indicate that students’ exposure to spatial cybertexts leads to three distinct psychological phenomena: (1) cognitive tension due to multimodal overload and fragmented attention; (2) pragmatic drift arising from context ambiguity and algorithmic mediation; and (3) metapragmatic awareness, reflecting a heightened sensitivity to language use, politeness, and identity performance in digital contexts. The study concludes that pragmatic awareness functions as both a cognitive and emotional regulator, enabling psycholinguistics students to sustain interpretive coherence amid digital overstimulation. The research offers insights into how spatial discourse in social media environments redefines the relationship between language, cognition, and affect in contemporary digital learning.

Abstract

The development of fundamental motor skills is a cornerstone of physical education in primary schooling and contributes directly to students’ long-term physical, cognitive, and emotional development. However, traditional instruction in motor learning often prioritizes repetitive technical exercises, which may hinder student motivation and engagement. This study explores how integrating the practice method and the play-sequence method can enhance both skill acquisition and learning motivation in elementary physical education classes, particularly in small-ball games. Using a qualitative descriptive design, this study synthesizes theoretical perspectives and empirical findings from prior pedagogical research to analyze how these methods shape motor learning outcomes and affective engagement. The findings indicate that the practice method supports precise technical mastery through structured repetition, while the play-sequence method fosters intrinsic motivation, creativity, and social interaction. When combined, these methods produce synergistic effects that strengthen psychomotor competence and student enthusiasm. The study argues that an integrated pedagogical approach grounded in experiential and motivational learning principles contributes to achieving Sustainable Development Goal 4 (Quality Education) by promoting inclusive, equitable, and effective learning practices.

Abstract

The increasing influence of multiculturalism and multilingualism, together with the expansion of tourism in Bali, has significantly contributed to the decline in the number of Balinese language speakers. To address this issue and to strengthen the sustainable use and preservation of the Balinese language and script, the government enacted Bali Governor Regulation Number 80 of 2018, known as the Balinese Language Policy. This study examines how this policy is put into practice through language signs in public places, often called the Linguistic Landscape (LL). The analysis specifically focuses on Article 6 paragraph (1) of the regulation, which mandates that Balinese script be placed above Latin letters in the naming of Hindu places of worship, traditional institutions, commemorative inscriptions, government and private buildings, streets, tourism facilities, and other public amenities. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, the study involves an empirical survey of language signs in public spaces, their categorization, and analysis of policy implementation. Within the Balinese linguistic landscape, signs are classified as public and personal. The findings indicate that the Balinese Language Policy has been effectively implemented on public signage in accordance with the regulation. However, its implementation on personal signage remains limited, as only some individuals have adopted the policy

Abstract

Mathematics is often perceived as an abstract, universal, and culture-free discipline, presented in formal symbols and rigid procedures that appear distant from learners’ everyday realities. This research investigated fractal concepts in ethnomathematics in relation to the Minangkabau songket textile. This research employed a qualitative case study design. Data were collected using a document checklist of the songket and a semi-structured interview. Data were analyzed using document analysis and thematic analysis. The research population was the Minangkabau songket textile, and the sampling method was purposive; three songket motifs from Pandai Sikek, West Sumatra, were selected. The results reveal repeated patterns of self-similarity, iteration, recursion, symmetry, and statistical variation, which are similar to the structures seen in nature. These patterns are not the result of formal mathematical calculation but arise from indigenous knowledge grounded in the Minangkabau philosophy alam takambang jadi guru, where nature serves as the primary source of learning. Beyond their aesthetic function, the fractal properties of songket motifs serve as visual metaphors for cultural continuity, social harmony, and the intergenerational transmission of values. This research is limited to songket produced by Pandai Sikek in West Sumatra. This study reinforces the notion that traditional cultural products are not only artistic expressions but also repositories of sophisticated mathematical knowledge.
