Abstract

This study investigates the impact of the Group-Discovery Learning Model on students’ communicative identity and the development of essential 21st-century skills, including critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication. This model is rooted in constructivist principles and encourages active learning through peer interaction, problem-solving tasks, and self-directed inquiry. Employing a quasi-experimental design, data were collected from 104 high school students across two schools in Padang who participated in either experimental or control classes. A validated performance-based assessment instrument was used to measure student outcomes across multiple dimensions of skill development. The results revealed significant improvements in 21st-century skills among students in the experimental group, with average post-treatment scores of 84.3 and 84.8, indicating a positive effect of the model. The normalized gain (N-Gain) scores showed medium effects (0.51 and 0.45), demonstrating measurable progress over four sessions. No significant interaction was found between the school category and the model's effectiveness, suggesting its potential adaptability across diverse educational settings. These findings support the Group-Discovery Learning Model as an effective approach for enhancing both cognitive and social competencies essential for modern learners. Despite these positive outcomes, challenges remain, particularly in developing higher-order critical thinking skills such as evaluating peer arguments and synthesizing complex ideas. This suggests that while the model fosters collaborative learning and engagement, additional scaffolding may be required to strengthen analytical reasoning. The study recommends integrating digital tools into the model to enrich collaborative learning experiences and reinforce students’ evolving communicative identities in contemporary language education.

Abstract

The old text of Tambo Surambi Alam Sungai Pagu constitutes a significant cultural heritage of the Minangkabau people. This manuscript chronicles the history of the Minangkabau Rajodom, which was composed initially by hand before its publication. To save the text against deterioration and natural calamities, such as fire and flood, preservation efforts, including digitalization, are essential. Digitalization converts media from printed, audio, or video formats to establish digital document repositories. Digitalization necessitates computers, scanners, operators, media, sources, and software. This study seeks to elucidate the procedure of translating the SASP manuscript from Arabic-Malay script to Latin script utilizing the Philology approach and delineate the process of web-based digitalization of the SASP manuscript. Two research methodologies exist: the Philological research method and the digitalization approach. The philological approach encompasses the processes of transliteration or transcription. The digitization of old SASP texts involves the building of software architecture applications. The digitization of this information system employs the PhoneGap operating system. From the data analysis, the subsequent conclusions can be derived. Initially, according to Philological research, namely the translation of the SASP manuscript, there are terms inscribed in Arabic alongside the utilization of Malay, Minangkabau, and antique vocabulary. The text serves a societal purpose as a source of information regarding the genealogy of the Pagaruyung Rajodom's history. Secondly, drawing from digitalization research utilizing the PhoneGap operating system, it can be elucidated that this design constitutes a digital web application for ancient SASP manuscripts, facilitating access to comprehensive information regarding these manuscripts. The test findings indicate that this application can deliver information according to user requirements, including manuscript details in Arabic Malay script and translation. The translation and digitization of this document will serve as a resource for digital literacy for students and the community

Abstract

In the face of rapid globalization, traditional oral literature faces the risk of marginalization, particularly in its role as a transmitter of local wisdom and moral values. This study examines the Minangkabau traditional pantun titled Budi to explore how moral education is embedded within local poetic forms. Utilizing Riffaterre’s semiotic framework, the research applies qualitative referential analysis to uncover the symbolic and intertextual dimensions of the text. Data were collected through observation and note-taking, followed by a four-stage semiotic reading process: heuristic reading, hermeneutic interpretation, matrix-model-variant analysis, and intertextual mapping. The findings reveal that Budi pantun encapsulates a rich tapestry of moral teachings: heuristic reading uncovers normative guidance for proper conduct; hermeneutic reading highlights deeper ethical reflections; matrix-model-variant analysis emphasizes cultural ideals of civility; and intertextual analysis connects the pantun with broader moral discourses in Minangkabau and Nusantara traditions. This research contributes to the preservation of intangible cultural heritage by documenting and analyzing indigenous moral philosophy embedded in oral literature. It also provides a critical pedagogical framework for integrating traditional texts into character education curricula. By highlighting the educational potential of pantun, the study advocates for culturally responsive teaching strategies that reinforce local identity while fostering universal ethical values. Future research should explore comparative semiotic analyses across ethnic literary traditions to enrich intercultural understanding and moral literacy in education systems.

Abstract

This study aims to: 1) analyze the implications of the policy on students' competence in using scientific Indonesian, and 2) evaluate the impact of eliminating the thesis as a medium for developing academic writing. Data were collected through interviews, questionnaires, and  document analysis at 9 universities ranked in the top 25 according to Time Higher Education  (THE) for the June 2023 period. This study reveals that the policy of eliminating the obligation  to write a thesis in Permendikbudristek No. 53/2023 has the potential to reduce students'  competence in mastering scientific Indonesian. Indonesian remains important as the main medium in developing critical thinking skills, scientific argumentation, and academic communication in various forms of alternative final assignments, such as projects, prototypes, or other innovative works. Good and correct mastery of Indonesian remains an important pillar in ensuring the quality of learning outcomes and student contributions in the academic and professional world. The implication is that it is necessary for the Directorate General of Higher Education to prepare technical implementation guidelines that regulate: 1) minimum language content standards for all types of final assignments, 2) validation mechanisms for Indonesian language competency, for example with the Indonesian Language Proficiency Test (UKBI), and 3) allocation of special credits for academic writing training so that mastery of Indonesian remains the foundation of academic competency for university graduates.

Abstract

Political speech plays a crucial role in shaping public perception, influencing emotions, and constructing ideological narratives. This study employs a scientometric approach to analyze research trends on figurative language in political discourse over the past decade (2014–2024). Using bibliometric data from the Scopus database, we examined 870 journal articles to identify key themes, publication trends, and dominant research clusters. Findings indicate significant growth in the field, particularly from 2018 onward, reflecting increased scholarly interest in political rhetoric. Social Media and Society, Cogent Arts & Humanities, and Theory and Practice in Language Studies emerged as leading publication venues. Thematic analysis revealed four major research clusters: (1) Language and Rhetoric, focusing on metaphor, framing, and discourse strategies; (2) Politician Identity, covering leadership, charisma, and political messaging; (3) Political Discourse, highlighting ideology, persuasion, and propaganda; and (4) Political Events, examining how figurative language is used during elections, crises, and debates. While this study provides a macro-level overview of research on figurative language in politics, it also highlights gaps in qualitative analysis. Future research should integrate rhetorical criticism with scientometric approaches to provide deeper insights into how figurative language influences political engagement. Additionally, expanding the dataset to include diverse linguistic and cultural perspectives would enhance the understanding of global rhetorical strategies. By mapping this field, the study contributes to a more comprehensive knowledge of how language and power interact in political communication.

Abstract

This study explores how international students perceive Indonesian culture while participating in the Bahasa Indonesia for Foreign Speakers (BIPA) program at Padang State University. Framed within Cross-Cultural Understanding (CCU), the study investigates how students’ cultural backgrounds, prior experiences, and exposure to cultural content in language teaching shape their engagement and motivation. Using a descriptive qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and documentation. The findings show that most students positively perceive Indonesian culture, particularly appreciating traditions, hospitality, and food. However, challenges arise with abstract cultural values, such as indirect communication, hierarchical relationships, and concepts of politeness, which sometimes contrast with students' native cultural norms. Students from Southeast Asian countries reported smoother cultural adjustment than those from Western countries. Furthermore, students favored experiential learning—such as field trips, cooking classes, and cultural performances—over theoretical cultural instruction. These insights reinforce the importance of integrating cultural content into language instruction but also highlight the need for culturally responsive pedagogy that considers learners’ diverse cultural frameworks. The study suggests incorporating CCU models (e.g., Byram's ICC Bennett's DMIS) to support intercultural reflection, identity development, and deeper engagement. Future research should explore the longitudinal impacts of cultural learning and implement structured tools to evaluate intercultural competence development.

Abstract

This study examines the presence of argumentative inaccuracies in the 2023–2024 Indonesian presidential and vice-presidential debates through the lens of cognitive linguistics and contextual pragmatics. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were drawn from transcripts of five debate rounds and analyzed using Toulmin's model of fallacies combined with situational context theory. The research identifies five dominant fallacies: evading the issue, argument from ignorance, appeal to authority, ad hominem attacks, and hasty generalizations. Each fallacy is interpreted within its political and situational context—revealing how historical references, ethical deflections, appeals to seniority, lack of mastery, and satire are strategically employed. The findings offer insight into how these inaccuracies diminish the integrity of public political discourse and obscure substantive discussion of policies. Furthermore, the study underscores the critical role of context in shaping the interpretation and reception of political arguments. It contributes to the growing body of work on cognitive-pragmatic approaches in political linguistics, and emphasizes the need for educational efforts to cultivate critical thinking and argumentative literacy among citizens and students alike. This research also suggests practical implications for debate organizers, moderators, and media analysts—calling for clearer standards to reduce manipulative rhetoric in public forums. Future studies are encouraged to apply computational methods to expand this work or examine comparative debate formats across cultures.

Abstract

In the contemporary digital era, political participation is increasingly mediated through online spaces, situating social media platforms as pivotal arenas for civic discourse and democratic contestation. This study investigates how Indonesian citizens engage with political issues through the hashtag #KawalPutusanMK on X, in response to decisions by the Constitutional Court. Employing a mixed-methods design, this study integrates computational sentiment analysis with Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) approach to analyze 3,508 user-generated posts collected between August and September 2024. Focusing on the textual (micro) level, this study examines lexical choices, emotional polarities, and metaphorical constructions that reflect public sentiment and their ideological stance. Findings show a predominance of negatively charged discourse, particularly targeting political elites and institutions. Users frequently employ emotionally loaded vocabulary and metaphors such as portraying democracy as a dying body, politics as theater, political elites as immoral rulers, and resistance as sacred duty serve to further delegitimize institutional authority. These linguistic features signal a broader erosion of public trust and dissatisfaction with institutional legitimacy. Additionally, the discourse constructs collective identity and mobilizes resistance, illustrating how online platforms function as tools for political engagement and symbolic struggle. By uncovering the rhetorical and affective strategies in digital protest, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of how language mediates public criticism and democratic participation in contemporary Indonesia. The findings have implications for media regulation, digital civic literacy, and policy development in a post-authoritarian context. Future research should focus on how digital platform discourse contributes to strengthening democratic resilience and promoting institutional accountability

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to describe the meaning of politeness in communicating in podcast media with an integrative-epistemological pragmatic perspective. The data of this study are manifestations of the pragmatic meaning of politeness in communicating in podcast media. The substantive data sources are the texts in the transcribed podcasts and in them there are research data. The locational data source is the podcast media that can be accessed around the time of this study. Data were collected using the listening method with recording and note-taking techniques. The data that has been collected is then classified and typified to facilitate data analysis. The data reduction process is carried out in this research stage. Data are analyzed and interpreted to find the pragmatic meanings of politeness. The pragmatic meanings of politeness are found using the equivalence analysis method, especially extralingual equivalences. The analysis of extralingual equivalences plays the role of context as a tool for analysis and interpretation. The dominant context used as a tool for analysis and interpretation in this stage is the cybertext context, both visual, aural, gestural, spatial, and linguistic cybertexts. The stages applied in this data analysis are identification, reduction, classification, identification, and interpretation. This study has produced several findings of the pragmatic meaning of politeness in podcast media as presented below: (1) Gratitude, (2) Expression of Admiration, (3) Expression of Affirmation, (4) Personal Expression, (5) Expression of Disagreement, (6) Indirect Expression, (7) Expression of Direct Affirmation, (8) Personal Expression, (9) Expression of Covert Criticism.

Abstract

This study investigates the speech system Kato Nan Ampek of the Minangkabau community through Halliday’s social semiotic framework. Kato Nan Ampek, comprising four speech forms—mandaki, manurun, mandata, and malereang—reflects Minangkabau values of politeness, hierarchy, and egalitarianism. The research aims to analyze how language structure (mood, modality, theme-rheme) constructs ideational, interpersonal, and textual meanings within traditional verbal communication. The study employs a qualitative descriptive method, collecting verbal texts from everyday Minangkabau interactions. Each utterance is examined using systemic functional linguistics (SFL), specifically analyzing the register components (field, tenor, and mode) and the three metafunctions. The findings reveal that each kato type corresponds to distinct social roles and communicative strategies. For example, Kato Mandaki is used when addressing elders, marked by indirect clause structures and low modality, signifying humility and respect. Kato Mandata, conversely, uses direct mood and informal particles to signify social equality and solidarity. Each speech act embeds cultural ideology and moral values mandaki enacts reverence for authority; manurun conveys affectionate instruction; mandata embodies communal harmony; and malereang expresses caution and politeness in formal interaction. These speech forms do not merely reflect cultural values but actively reproduce them through linguistic choices. The study affirms language as a semiotic resource that encodes ideology, social hierarchy, and identity. The paper contributes theoretically to local discourse studies by modeling how language is culturally shaped. Practically, it informs curriculum development, intergenerational language preservation, and revitalization strategies in the face of modernization. Future research should incorporate multimodal discourse (intonation, gesture), empirical dialogue data, and generational perceptions to deepen understanding of Kato Nan Ampek in a digital era.
