Abstract

Music has a significant role as a universal communication tool that is able to express feelings, ideas, emotions and reflections to its listeners. The song "Semua Aku Dirayakan" by Nadin Amizah is not only a means of entertainment but also offers a deep meaning related to introspection about self-acceptance, gratitude, and life's journey through deep metaphors. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method with Ferdinand De Saussure's semiotic approach, which focuses on the relationship between signifiers and signifieds to help us understand how signs work to form, change and communicate meaning in certain contexts. Data was collected from fanbase and general listener interviews as well as lyric analysis. This research aims to analyze the meaning of the lyrics of the song "Semua Aku Dirayakan" to reveal the message contained and connected to the listener's interpretation. The results of this research show that the song "Semua Aku Dirayakan" can be a universal reflection medium with a deep meaning about self-acceptance and respect for every phase of life. This research provides theoretical contributions to the study of semiotics and practical benefits for listeners in understanding the meaning of song lyrics more deeply.

Abstract

Music plays a significant role in conveying social criticism through meaningful lyrics. This study aims to analyze the construction of symbolic meaning in the lyrics of the song Bingung by Iksan Skuter using Ferdinand de Saussure’s semiotic approach. Employing qualitative interpretive methods, the research uses lyric analysis and audience interviews to understand how listeners interpret the song’s message. Analysis of the lyrics reveals various symbols in Bingung representing social injustice, stereotypes, commercialized education, media manipulation, and the existential paradoxes of modern humanity. The song highlights how individuals often experience labeling, social pressure, and inequality across multiple aspects of life. The semiotic approach reveals that the signifiers in the lyrics represent a complex social reality, while the signified conveys criticism of prevailing social conditions. Therefore, the song serves not only as artistic expression but also as a powerful tool for social critique. This study reinforces the understanding that music can serve as a powerful communication medium for raising social awareness, particularly through works by independent musicians such as Iksan Skuter.

Abstract

The growing emphasis on sustainability within education requires teachers to integrate environmentally responsible technologies in their teaching practices. This study examines educators’ adoption of green digital technologies by exploring the influence of psychological readiness, digital competence, and institutional support. Grounded in the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework, the research develops a conceptual model that connects individual readiness with professional and institutional enablers. Using a cross-sectional design and data from 200 educators in Indonesia, the findings demonstrate that digital competence and institutional support significantly influence sustainable technology adoption, with psychological readiness acting as a mediator. This study highlights the importance of aligning technological innovation with sustainability goals and provides implications for teacher professional development, institutional policy, and sustainable education strategies.
