Abstract

This study aims to analyze the emotional representation in the lyrics of Juicy Luicy’s popular songs among Generation Z. Employing Roland Barthes’ semiotic framework and Stuart Hall’s theory of representation, this research explores how emotional meanings are constructed through linguistic and symbolic signs in the lyrics and how Generation Z audiences interpret them based on their social context. The study focuses on four songs: “Lantas”, “Tanpa Tergesa”, “Lampu Kuning”, and “Sialan", selected for their digital popularity and emotional resonance on platforms Spotify and YouTube. The findings reveal that the lyrics represent emotions such as dilemma, regret, uncertainty, and loss through simple diction, visual metaphors, and accessible symbols. These songs deliver emotional depth not only on a literal level but also connotatively, forming cultural myths around love and longing. Generation Z decodes these lyrics through the lens of their personal experiences, treating them as a reflective space for articulating emotional identity. Moreover, the lyrics serve as a medium for managing emotional stress and building social connections through shared empathy. Thus, the study affirms that Juicy Luicy’s lyrics function as a form of emotional communication and cultural representation in the lives of Generation Z.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of the Canva application as an instructional tool to enhance creativity among seventh-grade students in graphic design at SMP IT Tenggarong Seberang. Employing a Classroom Action Research (CAR) methodology, the research was conducted over two cycles involving 44 students. The first cycle revealed that the integration of Canva did not significantly improve student engagement or creativity, with an average participation rate of 56% and an average score of 67.95. Consequently, modifications were made for the second cycle, focusing on clearer instruction and increased student interaction. The results of the second cycle demonstrated substantial improvements, achieving an 84% participation rate and an average score of 83.4, indicating that most students met the mastery criteria. Observations showed enhanced creativity in students’ graphic design projects, highlighting the positive impact of using technology in the classroom. This study underscores the potential of Canva as a versatile educational tool that fosters creativity and engagement, making it beneficial for modern educational practices. Future research may investigate the long-term effects of such applications on student learning outcomes across various subjects and educational levels.

Abstract

Toddlers in Indonesia are an age group that is vulnerable to the impacts of malnutrition. Central Java Province is the province with the highest number of cases of malnutrition in toddlers in Java, namely 9525 cases of malnutrition during 2023. This study aims to analyze the variables that influence malnutrition in Central Java Province in 2023. The data used are secondary data in 2023sourced from the Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS), Central Java Provincial Health Service, and Badan Panga Nasional (BPN). The analysis method used is negative binomial regression for modeling enumeration data to overcome the problem of overdispersion in Poisson regression. The results of the analysis show that there is a negative influence of the variables of the percentage of households with access to proper sanitation, the food security index, and the percentage of babies receiving exclusive breastfeeding on the number of cases of malnutrition in toddlers. Meanwhile, the proportion of women aged over 15 years who have a maximum junior high school diploma has an effect on increasing cases of malnutrition in toddlers.

Abstract

This paper examines the role of Kelompok Wanita Tani (KWT), or Women Farmers’ Groups, as a grassroots mechanism for enhancing rural women’s productivity and empowerment in Indonesia. Adopting a qualitative descriptive approach, the study was conducted in three villages in Blitar Regency, East Java, through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. The findings demonstrate that KWTs play a pivotal role in increasing women’s household income, strengthening agricultural and entrepreneurial skills, and fostering leadership and community participation. Women involved in KWTs reported greater financial autonomy, confidence in decision-making, and access to local networks. Nonetheless, the study identifies persistent structural challenges such as limited access to capital, inconsistent training support, market dependency, and generational disengagement. To maximize the impact of KWTs, the study recommends integrated interventions that promote institutional support, financial inclusion, digital literacy, and youth participation. This research contributes to the growing discourse on gender, collective action, and rural development in Southeast Asia.

Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif melalui studi kasus, dengan data primer diperoleh dari wawancara mendalam dan observasi partisipatif, serta data sekunder dari dokumen dan regulasi internal. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa prosedur pelayanan mulai dari pendaftaran objek baru sampai dengan pembatalan SK PBB telah berjalan sesuai dengan ketentuan perundang-undangan dan asas tata kelola pemerintahan yang baik seperti kepastian hukum, akuntabilitas, transparansi, dan partisipasi. Meskipun belum memiliki SOP formal, namun pelaksanaan teknis di lapangan telah mengadopsi praktik yang legal dan akuntabel. Hal ini mencerminkan budaya kerja yang berorientasi pada kepatuhan hukum di lingkungan Bapenda. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa layanan SK PBB-P2 di Surabaya telah memenuhi standar normatif dan menjadi landasan yang kuat dalam optimalisasi layanan pajak daerah. Implikasinya, formalisasi SOP dan peningkatan sosialisasi prosedur kepada masyarakat merupakan langkah penting untuk memperkuat layanan pajak daerah.

Abstract

Public speaking is a crucial skill that should be developed from an early age. At State Elementary School 2 Sumberingin, this skill is underdeveloped, evident in the low participation of students during presentations or class speaking activities. This community service activity aimed to enhance students' public speaking abilities through a gradual and structured speech training method. The activity involved speech training encompassing the basic theory of public speaking, speaking practice, and student performance evaluation. A participatory approach was employed, actively involving students and teachers over two weeks. The results showed a significant improvement in student confidence, their ability to write speeches, and their skills in expressively delivering speeches in public. The activity received a positive response from the school and is expected to become a regular program.

Abstract

Twenty-first-century education demands a transformation in teaching strategies, with a focus on cultivating higher-order thinking skills, especially critical thinking. Observations and interviews at SD Negeri 2 Bendoagung, SD Negeri 3 Bendoagung, and SD Negeri 2 Karangrejo revealed that students' critical thinking skills are still relatively low. One of the underlying causes is the application of instructional methods that fail to sufficiently stimulate critical thinking. This study seeks to investigate the effect of incorporating traditional engklek games into a Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model on students’ critical thinking abilities in science education. The research employed a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental approach, specifically using a nonequivalent control group design. The sample was selected purposively, involving fourth-grade students from SD Negeri 2 and 3 Bendoagung as the experimental group, while students from SD Negeri 2 Karangrejo acted as the control group. Data were gathered using a critical thinking test, and analyzed using normality and homogeneity tests, followed by an independent sample t-test. Results showed a significant improvement in the experimental group, with a 46.55% increase in critical thinking performance, compared to only 11.11% in the control group. The hypothesis test produced a significance (2-tailed) value of 0.000, which is below the 0.05 threshold indicating that the integration of traditional engklek games within a PBL framework has a positive impact on students’ critical thinking skills.

Abstract

Teachers play a crucial role in fostering innovative and engaging learning environments to ensure that educational goals are effectively achieved. Selecting an appropriate learning model can significantly support the development of student creativity, particularly in Fine Arts, a subject that heavily relies on imagination and personal expression. The creativity levels among fourth-grade elementary students remain relatively low, as reflected in their limited ability to generate original ideas and the lack of variety in instructional models used by teachers, which are still largely traditional and project-based. This research aims to examine the impact of the Gallery Walk learning model on enhancing student creativity in Fine Arts. A quantitative approach was employed using a Quasi-Experimental method with a Nonequivalent Control Group Design. The study population included all fourth-grade students in Pule District, totaling 578 students. From this population, 82 students were selected through purposive sampling from SD Negeri 1 Joho, SD Negeri 4 Pule, and SD Negeri 2 Joho. Data were gathered through observation, interviews, and documentation, using instruments such as creativity rating scales and product assessment tools. The results of the hypothesis test, conducted using an independent samples t-test, indicated a significance value of 0.000 ≤ 0.05, demonstrating a meaningful effect of the Gallery Walk model on improving student creativity. This model has proven effective in encouraging students to express their creative ideas more fully in Fine Arts learning.
