Abstract

This qualitative study investigates the role of social capital specifically trust, community norms, and social networks in sustaining household silk-weaving enterprises in Pakkanna Village, Wajo Regency, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Employing a case-study approach with in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis, the research identifies trust as a critical informal governance mechanism, significantly reducing transaction costs and streamlining production processes. However, reliance on trust also reinforces asymmetric power relationships, where collectors dominate market interactions, constraining artisans' bargaining power. Additionally, community norms such as mutual help (gotong-royong) and meticulous craftsmanship (mappasile) maintain high product quality and preserve cultural identity but simultaneously restrict innovation and responsiveness to market changes. Social networks enhance access to resources, information, and markets, yet the artisans’ dependency on collectors limits their direct market engagement, highlighting inherent vulnerabilities. External interventions through digital platforms and government programs show potential but face generational resistance and uneven uptake. Practical implications suggest promoting diversified market strategies and targeted interventions to strengthen artisans’ positions, while theoretical implications call for integrating gender and power dynamics into social-capital frameworks. Policy recommendations advocate combining infrastructural support with capacity-building and implementing geographic indications to secure cultural authenticity and economic sustainability.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the alignment of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) in teaching activities and teaching materials at Vocational High Schools (SMK) in Indonesia, especially in the context of the Merdeka Curriculum. A descriptive qualitative approach was used to explore teachers’ strategies, challenges, and recommendations in implementing ESP. the research participants consisted of three English teachers from three vocational high schools in Magelang City with different expertise programs, namely hospitality, nursing, and engineering. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and analyzed using a systematic thematic analysis model. The results show that teachers apply several strategies to align ESP with students’ needs, such as collaborative needs analysis with vocational teachers and industry professionals, work context-based activity design (e/g/ VR simulation in hospitality, role-play in nursing, and engineering projects), and diversification of material sources by utilizing digital technology. However, the main challenges include the mismatch of the national curriculum which is still oriented towards General English (EGP), limited ESP support facilities, and the gap in teacher competence in mastering technical content in vocational fields. Teachers recommend the development of a structured ESP curriculum based on majors, increased collaboration with industry, and hybrid training to strengthen teacher capacity. This finding confirms the need for multi-stakeholder synergy to optimize ESP learning in vocational high schools to be relevant to the needs of the world of work.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the readers’ reception on The Necklace short story based on Hall’s reception theory. Employing descriptive-qualitative research design, the study focuses on Hall’s three main reading positions: the dominant-hegemonic, in which the reader decodes the message as intended by the author; the negotiated, where the reader partly accepts and partly resists the message; and the oppositional, where the reader rejects the encoded message entirely. Data were collected through two main instruments: students’ intellectual diaries (reflective journals) and classroom discussions. Data analysis follows Braun & Clarke’s thematic analysis. The findings of this study provide a nuanced understanding of how university students interpret Maupassant’s The Necklace in relation to materialism and contemporary consumer culture, viewed through the lens of Hall’s reception theory. The students’ responses, categorized into dominant-hegemonic, negotiated, and oppositional readings, reveal the multiplicity of interpretive positions shaped by ideological alignment, personal experience, and sociocultural context. This study shows that The Necklace story remains a powerful and relevant story, offering rich opportunities for critical engagement and reflection in the classroom. It becomes evident that literary texts are not static but dynamic sites where meaning is contested and reinterpreted across time and space. This study has shown that literature remains an essential tool for fostering critical thinking and for engaging students with the social, cultural, and ideological issues of their time.

Abstract

This study examined Enhancing Vocabulary Mastery Using Audiovisual Learning Wordwall among fourth-grade elementary school students. Elementary schools faced challenges with limited instructional time for English language learning, creating a need for more efficient and engaging vocabulary teaching methods. This research used a pre-experimental design with one group taking both a pretest and posttest, including 33 fourth-grade students at SDN 1 Purwogondo. The intervention utilized Wordwall interactive audiovisual activities to teach vocabulary related to the "Be on Time" topic. Data was examined using descriptive statistics and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results showed an important improvement in vocabulary mastery, with average scores increasing from 47.27 at the beginning to 81.21 at the end. The standard deviation decreased from 15.567 to 9.845, showing more consistent performance across different student ability levels. The findings suggested that Wordwall provided multiple ways for vocabulary learning, changing vocabulary study into an active, engaging process. The study added to evidence supporting technology-enhanced language learning for vocabulary development at the elementary level.

Abstract

This study explores the integrated strategies employed by caregivers at Panti Asuhan Ummu Aiman, an Islamic orphanage in Makassar, Indonesia, to strengthen character education and enhance learning motivation among children in institutional care. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with 12 children and 6 caregivers, participant observation over a three-month period, and document analysis. The findings reveal nine interrelated strategies: psychological consultation, tahfidz (Qur’an memorization) programs, caregiver role modelling, structured character education routines, regular monitoring and evaluation, participation in Jakarta Intensive Learning Centre (JILC) tutoring, a balanced reward and punishment system, engagement with external stakeholders, and entrepreneurship training. These strategies function synergistically to address the emotional, moral, cognitive, and social dimensions of the children's development. The study concludes that a holistic and culturally grounded model integrating spiritual, psychological, and educational support can effectively foster character formation and academic motivation in orphanage settings. The implications suggest that faith-based care institutions can play a transformative role when guided by intentional, structured, and empathetic approaches to child development.

Abstract

This study focuses on developing an interactive hybrid book for teaching English to fourth-grade students in inclusive classrooms at SDN 2 Bengkala. The hybrid book integrates digital and print media to accommodate students' diverse learning needs, particularly those with hearing impairments. Utilizing the ADDIE model, the study followed five phases: Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The book incorporates multimodal content, including sign language videos, text captions, high-contrast images, and interactive elements to enhance engagement and accessibility. The research employed a qualitative descriptive method, gathering data through observations, interviews, and expert validation. The results indicate that the hybrid book significantly improves students' reading comprehension and engagement by offering interactive features such as quizzes, drag-and-drop exercises, and real-time feedback. Teachers found the book effective in facilitating English learning and inclusive classroom interactions. The study also identified challenges, including limited digital resources and the need for ongoing technological adaptation, which were addressed by ensuring offline accessibility and expert content validation. This research contributes to the field of inclusive education by providing an accessible learning tool that supports diverse student needs. The findings suggest that hybrid books can enhance literacy development and engagement in inclusive classrooms. Future research should explore integrating AI-driven personalized learning and gamified content to further optimize student learning experiences. The study underscores the importance of inclusive educational materials in fostering equitable learning opportunities.

Abstract

This study was conducted to identify students’ learning styles, the problems they face, their strategies, and their perceptions of speaking English based on their respective learning styles. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach. The tenth-grade Culinary A students of SMKN 2 Gowa were selected as the research subjects. Data were collected through observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation. The results revealed that: (1) The most dominant learning styles employed by the students in the classroom is visual learning style, followed by auditory learning style and kinesthetic learning style (2) The problems experienced by students in English speaking activities based on their learning styles, such as visual learners faced issues such as lack of confidence, difficulty understanding instructions without visual aids, pronunciation challenges, and noisy classroom environments. Auditory learners encountered problems such as fear of making mistakes, confusion, discomfort, grammar issues, and hesitation, while kinesthetic learners struggled with boredom, panic, nervousness, lack of self-confidence, and fear of being laughed at. (3) The strategies identified by visual learners included planning, memorizing, taking notes, and preparing visual aids. Auditory learners resolved their difficulties by speaking loudly, watching video podcasts, memorizing, and using audio tools such as voice recordings, and kinesthetic learners addressed their challenges by asking for permission to move, using body movements, and employing physical tools such as pens or markers.

Abstract

This study analyzes the socio-political critique embedded in Remy Sylado’s poem Lebih Baik Mati Muda through Friedrich Schleiermacher’s hermeneutic framework, specifically integrating grammatical and psychological interpretations. As a pioneering figure in the Indonesian Mbeling poetry movement, Sylado strategically employed colloquial language, provocative diction, and emotionally charged imagery to confront systemic corruption, authoritarianism, and moral decay during Indonesia’s New Order regime. Using qualitative descriptive methodology, the analysis first examines the poem’s grammatical elements such as diction, rhetorical structures, and repetition to reveal how linguistic deviation amplifies the poet's socio-political critique. Subsequently, psychological interpretation uncovers deeper emotional dimensions, highlighting how the narrative voice conveys generational despair and moral urgency. Findings indicate that Sylado’s recurrent phrase Lebih baik aku mati muda ("Better that I die young") symbolizes an existential and ethical ultimatum, articulating a powerful stance against oppressive societal conditions. The study contributes methodologically by applying Schleiermacher’s dual hermeneutic approach to Indonesian protest poetry, theoretically by deepening scholarly understanding of poetry's role in social resistance, and practically by underscoring poetry’s educational potential in fostering critical literacy and civic engagement. Future research is recommended to expand comparative and multimodal analyses of protest poetry, enhancing understanding of its cognitive and emotional effects across different contexts.

Abstract

This qualitative study explores the influence of TikTok on the English script-writing development of Indonesian EFL students in a pesantren-based language learning program. Using a case study design, six students and one instructor participated through interviews, classroom observations, questionnaires, and analysis of student-generated scripts. The study aimed to identify how sustained exposure to TikTok's short-form, multimodal content shapes learners’ written expression, creativity, and linguistic awareness. Findings reveal that TikTok fosters increased expressiveness, narrative concision, and audience sensitivity in student scripts. Participants drew from platform features such as trending language, dialogic cues, and visual storytelling, which they translated into idiomatic phrases, informal transitions, and creative dialogue structures in writing. The social and interactive nature of TikTok encouraged risk-taking and self-regulated learning behaviors, including rewatching videos for tone and accuracy and mimicking fluent speech. However, the study also highlights persistent challenges, particularly in grammar accuracy and register appropriateness, suggesting that while TikTok can stimulate creativity and engagement, it does not inherently provide corrective feedback or support formal writing norms. Educators are encouraged to incorporate TikTok thoughtfully using it as a scaffold for idea generation and stylistic awareness while complementing it with explicit instruction in grammar and genre conventions. This research contributes to evolving perspectives on the integration of social media in second language writing pedagogy.

Abstract

This research explores how English teachers at SMKN 10 Jeneponto identify student characteristics in the implementation of differentiated learning, which is aligned with the “Merdeka” curriculum. This research uses mixed methods that combine qualitative and quantitative research. In collecting data, the researchers conducted interviews, questionnaires, and documentation. Three English teachers participated as subjects in this research. The findings show that teachers use questionnaires administered by counseling teachers and follow-up interviews to detect students' learning styles, such as visual, auditory, or kinesthetic. From the results of the questionnaire analyzed by the researchers, it was found that 58.33% of students with visual learning style, 37.5% auditory, and 4.17% visual-auditory. After the questionnaire from the counseling teacher, the subject teachers also conducted follow-up interviews to find out more about students' learning styles and abilities. In identifying students' abilities, teachers also rely on observations during the learning process and targeted questions at the beginning of the lesson. This method allows teachers to adjust their instructional strategies to meet students' needs more effectively. The research concludes that combining interviews and questionnaires provides a comprehensive approach to understanding students' learning styles and abilities, which contributes to the successful implementation of differentiated learning. This approach increases student engagement, supports individual learning preferences, and ultimately improves learning outcomes.
