Abstract

This study explores the English vocabulary mastery profile of fifth-semester students in the Family Law Program at STIS Harsy, Central Lombok. The primary objective is to identify students' vocabulary proficiency levels, as vocabulary is a key foundation for productive language skills. Using a descriptive research method, the study evaluates the vocabulary skills of all students within the specified group through a multiple-choice vocabulary mastery test. Results categorize student vocabulary proficiency into three levels: "Not Good" (43.33%), "Poor" (30.00%), and "Good" (26.67%). The significant portion of students in the "Not Good" category highlights the need for instructional interventions to enhance vocabulary knowledge, essential for effective communication in academic settings. Conclusions indicate that targeted teaching methods, including explicit instruction, cooperative learning, and digital tools, are recommended to address vocabulary deficiencies. Implementing these strategies can foster independent vocabulary acquisition and improve overall language skills, enabling students to participate more actively in academic contexts.

Abstract

The integration of Sasak local wisdom into science education, particularly in biology, physics, and chemistry, offers a contextual and meaningful learning experience for students. This study explores the potential of Sasak cultural practices such as Belaq Tangkel, Poteng Rekat, Bau Nyale, and Nyesek to enrich science education. These traditions are linked to scientific concepts, including human reproduction, biodiversity, material physics, and chemical bonding. The research adopts a literature review approach to identify and map the educational potential of Sasak traditions, focusing on their relevance to scientific learning. For instance, Belaq Tangkel introduces students to embryonic development, while Kalender Rowot Sasak supports teaching astronomy. The integration of these practices promotes sustainability values, analytical skills, and cultural appreciation among students. Challenges such as limited resources and teacher training highlight the need for collaboration between educators, local communities, and researchers. This approach not only fosters cultural preservation but also enhances students’ scientific understanding, providing a holistic and sustainable educational framework. The findings underline the importance of ethnoscience in bridging traditional knowledge and modern science to create an inclusive and culturally responsive education system.

Abstract

This study explores the role of the Begarap tradition in shaping character and maintaining social integrity within the Sasak community in Lombok. The primary objective is to understand how Begarap functions as a conflict resolution mechanism and social control tool in the face of modernization challenges. The research employs a qualitative approach, combining literature studies and in-depth interviews with traditional and religious leaders in Pujut and Praya Timur. The findings reveal that Begarap remains relevant in upholding values of honesty and social responsibility. This ritual carries strong spiritual elements, where individuals swear an oath using sacred water from Nyatuq’s grave. The belief in supernatural consequences enhances its effectiveness in regulating behavior. Despite social transformations due to globalization, Begarap endures as a symbol of cultural and religious identity. The study concludes that Begarap contributes significantly to maintaining social stability and reinforcing moral values within the Sasak community. Recommendations include integrating Begarap’s values into education and promoting its preservation through documentation and further research to ensure its relevance in the modern era.

Abstract

Educational philosophy plays a dominant role in shaping educational theory and practice by providing an epistemic and ethical foundation. This study examines recent literature (2023-2024) to analyze how philosophical concepts, such as Kuhn’s paradigm shifts and culturally rooted approaches like Ubuntu and Ujamaa, influence curriculum design and teaching methods. Using the PRISMA systematic review method, this research identifies 35 relevant documents and conducts an in-depth analysis of 13 journal articles discussing the role of philosophy in education. The findings indicate that philosophy contributes to enhancing critical literacy, epistemic decolonization, and strengthening inclusive educational strategies. This study also highlights the challenges in applying philosophical principles in global education systems, which are still predominantly influenced by Western-based curricula. Through a comprehensive literature review, this research asserts that educational philosophy is not only of academic value but also has practical implications for improving the relevance and quality of education. Therefore, integrating philosophical thought into education can serve as an innovative solution for creating a more inclusive, reflective, and contextual learning system.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of implementing the Discovery Learning model on students' science process skills. The research method used is a quasi-experiment with a Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design, involving two groups: an experimental class (n = 16) using Discovery Learning and a control class (n = 15) using the lecture method. The research instruments include achievement tests, observation sheets,  and interviews with teachers and students. The results indicate that students who learned through Discovery Learning experienced a significant improvement in science process skills, particularly in observing, classifying, predicting, and communicating learning outcomes. Statistical analysis using the t-test showed a significant difference between the experimental and control groups, with tcalculated=3.17 = 3.17 greater than ttable=2.045 at a significance level of p<0.0. These findings highlight the importance of inquiry-based learning strategies in improving the quality of science education. The study was conducted over eight weeks, allowing for a comprehensive assessment of student progress.
