Abstract

This systematic literature review examines specific digital tools such as mobile apps, online dictionaries, and social media platforms, evaluating their implementation and effectiveness in preserving endangered languages in Indonesia. Drawing from an analysis of ten scholarly publications spanning 2019 to 2023, key tools identified include the Android-based Lampung dictionary, "Nusantara in Your Hand" for Javanese and Madurese, and the Muyu-Indonesian-English Dictionary App. These tools engage communities through initiatives like the Balinese Language Digital Dictionary and BASAbali Wiki, utilizing platforms such as WhatsApp, Facebook, and YouTube for cultural preservation. Implementation strategies encompass a variety of mediums: mobile apps tailored for Lampung, Javanese, and Madurese speakers; comprehensive online platforms like the Balinese Language Digital Dictionary and BASAbali Wiki; interactive resources such as LearnJavaneseOnline.com; and dynamic social media engagement on WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. Utilizing modern technology, these tools document, teach, and sustain regional languages, enhancing accessibility and fostering community engagement. Their effectiveness lies in promoting community involvement, integrating into educational frameworks, and gaining support from governments and local communities, thus playing a crucial role in safeguarding Indonesia's linguistic heritage and cultural identity. In conclusion, digital tools present significant progress in preserving Indonesia's linguistic diversity, requiring strategies that address socio-cultural and technical challenges, prioritize community involvement, foster collaboration across sectors, improve digital infrastructure, and promote sustainable practices to ensure long-term success in language revitalization efforts.

Abstract

The objective of this research is to develop digital teaching materials for explanatory texts designed for students in junior high school. The following issues represent the primary challenges associated with this research: (1) What is the optimal design of digital teaching materials for critical thinking explanatory texts for junior high school/MTs? (2) What are the outcomes of the implementation of digital teaching materials for critical thinking explanatory texts for junior high school/MTs? This research employs the research and development method (R&D) with the ADDIE model (analysis, design, development, implementation, evaluation). The research methodology comprises the following steps: analysis of needs, design of digital teaching materials for explanatory text, development of digital teaching materials for explanatory text, implementation of digital teaching materials for explanatory text, and evaluation of digital teaching materials for explanatory text. In this study, data were collected from the results of validation questionnaires completed by experts in learning models, media, and implementation in learning, as well as from the actual implementation of the learning model. The data were subjected to descriptive analysis using the Likert scale and paired sample t-test. The validation test conducted with material experts yielded a score of 3.5, while the test with media experts returned a score of 3.9. The validation test with Indonesian language teachers also produced a score of 3.9. The implementation of digital teaching materials for critical thinking explanatory texts for junior high school/MTs students prompted positive responses from the students, resulting in a score of 3.5. The findings of this study indicate that digital teaching materials for critical thinking explanations for junior high school/MTs students satisfy the criteria for feasibility in terms of their potential use as a learning model by teachers of Indonesian language subjects on explanatory text material for junior high school/MTs class VIII students.

Motivation is a basic factor in the teaching and learning process in the classroom. Students who are highly motivated will be active, but students who are low motivated will be passive and disturb other students. The Development Model in this study will be conducted to develop the phonics method as a method in teaching reading materials for kindergarten students. To achieve this goal, a research approach is needed that highlights efforts to produce reading teaching strategies. Therefore, in designing the model, researchers used the Research and Development approach by adapting the Borg and Gall model.Based on the result of the research and development carried out, it can concluded that developing reading materials through the phonics method designed by researchers aims to help students read simple sentences in English. The development of reading materials through the phonics method that has been designed by researchers has passed the validation stage by 2 expert validators. The effectiveness of reading material through phonics method for kindergarten students at DD2 School Medan that has been developed by researchers can be seen from the results of the effectiveness test.

Abstract

Education must integrate local wisdom to prevent cultural values ​​from fading in the era of globalization. The Merdeka Curriculum supports this with the flexibility to emphasize character education and independence. Digital teaching materials based on local wisdom, such as short story texts, can improve students' reading, writing and cultural understanding skills. The aim of this research is to develop and test digital teaching materials for short story texts based on local wisdom for junior high school students. This research used the ADDIE method with the help of 2 media and language validators as well as 6 students and 3 teachers in testing teaching materials. Data collection techniques were carried out using questionnaires, interviews and documentation. The teaching material design process begins with an analysis of student needs and the curriculum, followed by creating a storyboard and validation by two validators who state that the teaching material is very worthy of being tested. The implementation of local wisdom-based teaching materials shows high effectiveness, with student responses reaching 90% and teacher responses 87%, both in the very good category.
