Abstract

    Biographies are very important to be given to students so that the exemplary in the text can inspire and motivate students. The purpose of this study was to describe the increased abilities and activities of SMA N 2 Indramayu students in learning biographical texts through PowToon media. This study used a nonequivalent control group design. This design involved two groups, namely the trial group and the comparison group, namely class X MIPA 1 totaling 36 students and X MIPA 2 totaling 36 students. The research instruments used were tests (pretest and posttest), observation sheets, questionnaires and documentation. The data analysis technique uses the IBM SPSS 25 application program, namely the data normality test and the Wilcoxon test. The results of the study showed that there was a significant increase in student learning outcomes in the trial class through PowToon media compared to the comparison class. The average learning outcomes for the trial group reached 85.5, while the comparison group obtained a less significant increase compared to the trial class, which was 66. Based on the results of the Wilcoxon test, it was known that Asymp. Sig. (2-tailed) has a value of 0.000 <0.05 which means it is rejected and accepted. That is, there is a difference between learning outcomes in the final test of the pilot class and the comparison class.

The research approach used is descriptive qualitative, namely examining language data in the form of the use of slang by millennial youth and interpreting it. Sources of research data are interview results and social media, namely Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, which contain teenage slang. Data collection techniques were documented, observed and recorded, as well as interviews with fifteen young people who used slang in communicating. The data analysis technique in this study is content analysis. The results of the study show that the use of slang by millennial youth originates from regional languages, Indonesian, foreign languages, as well as a combination of Indonesian and foreign languages. The pattern of forming slang from abbreviations, shortening of words, acronyms, reversal of words, spoofed words and shifts in meaning. The expression of the use of slang among millennial youth on social media and its impact on the extension of Indonesian in society makes a big change in the world of language, this is because teenagers are contaminated by foreign languages so this has an impact on the extension of society. Regarding this problem so that ordinary people feel accustomed to and contaminated with the slang that is widely used by millennial youth at this time, this will affect the resilience of the Indonesian national language which is the identity of the country, so that the impact begins to fade the use of good Indonesian and true because it has been contaminated with the influence of foreign languages.

Abstract

This paper is entitled "The Role and Function of the Register in the Arena of Sociocultural Practices". This theme was raised because in the arena of sociocultural communication practices there is a hidden peculiarity in the form of deception, which is often inconsistent between linguistic aspects and sociocultural behavior. The use of the register as a style of communication rhetoric is built not without reason but contains the motives, intentions, achievements to be achieved. This paper aims to reveal: the form of the register, the role and function of the register, as well as the symbolic meaning of the register in the arena of sociocultural communication practices in the cattle trade. For this reason, a qualitative descriptive method is needed, which attempts to substantially describe aspects of the meaning of the data with in-depth analysis related to the subject matter. In order to arrive at an in-depth interpretation, the following theoretical knowledge is used: sociocultural, sociolinguistic, capitalism, hegemony, hegemonic, and hermeneutic as a strategic method for understanding texts whose meaning must be interpreted. The results of the study indicate: there are forms of oratorical, deliberative, consultative, casual, intimate registers. The function of the register is to act as an instrument of conative and emotive manipulation to influence, weaken, subdue, and restrain hegemonic control or domination. The register has a symbolic meaning of feudalism relations in the form of a phenomenon in the arena of sociocultural communication practices influenced by the discourse on capitalist cultural domination.

Abstract

Novel Janji is one the novels that tell the story of the journey of a religious school child who is looking for a former religious school student decades ago. The author describes religious school children being able to search for someone who disappeared decades ago according to their teacher’s instructions. This study uses a literary sociological analysis approach. The results of the study show that the story in the novel Janji contains five dimensions of religiosity, namely the dimension of belief, the dimension of ritual, the dimension of experience, the dimension of knowledge, and the consequential dimension. In the dimension of belief, it can be seen in the character's belief in doing good, not committing acts of corruption, and the belief in using money to worship. In the ritual dimension, religiosity is seen in the implementation of the five daily prayers, ablution before prayer, Friday prayers, daily expressions, and Idul Fitri prayers. In addition, in the dimension of experience, religiosity is seen in the character's experience of doing bad things, the experience of the character studying at a religious school, and the experience of the character eating inappropriate food for five years. In the knowledge dimension, the value of religiosity can be seen in the concept of sin, the concept of halal and haram, the obligation to pray five times a day, treasures as entrusted in the world, and stories of prophets in the past. At the end, the consequential dimension appears in the actions of the characters in the present which are based on the experiences of the characters in the past.

Abstract

The discourse of colonial and colonized conflicts is oriented in the form of resentment and hatred of the colonized community as part of the causality of traumatic events. The wounds of the past are then passed down through the concept of memory transmission both by famillial mechanism memory and affillial memory by first-generation to post-generation. It is this hereditary traumatic condition that contributes to maintaining the discourse of inferiority and binaryism between East and West. Thus, the purpose of this study is to describe the conflicts of colonizers and postcolonial colonizers as well as examine the efforts of Iksaka Banu to release these traumatic shackles through reconciliation and resistance efforts. This research method uses Teun van Critical Discourse Analysis (AWK). Dijk which is based on the analysis of the text dimension, the social cognition dimension, and the social context dimension. Data collection techniques in this study apply listening methods and advanced recording techniques, and document review techniques. The results showed that (1) A review of the dimensions of the text showed a reconstruction of the ambivalence and traumatic of Western subjects in the short stories of Iksaka Banu; (2) A study of the dimensions of social cognition shows that the reconstruction pattern of ambivalence and traumatic of the Western subject is used as Iksaka Banu's strategy to carry out traumatic reconciliation of colonized subjects as well as resistance to Western domination and hegemony; (3) A study of the social context shows two findings of the problem, First, the existence of social inequality over the mechanisms of Western domination and hegemony; Second, even so, Indonesian society is still confined by the problem of trauma while awareness of the subject's position on the condition of social reality cannot be managed as a potential resistance

Abstract

This study examines the linguistic and psychological dynamics of hate speech in Indonesian political discourse on YouTube by analyzing user comments on a CNN Indonesia talk show discussing Gibran Rakabuming Raka. Using a qualitative approach grounded in appraisal-based discourse analysis, the study analyzes 1,534 comments to explore how evaluative language constructs moral conflict in online political communication. The findings reveal that hate speech is predominantly expressed through negative judgment, which accounts for 45% of the data, followed by contractive engagement strategies that restrict dialogue (44%) and intensified graduation that amplifies emotional force (12%). These linguistic patterns indicate that political disagreement is frequently framed as moral condemnation rather than rational debate. The study further demonstrates that such evaluative strategies are closely linked to psychological processes, including moral conviction, group identity signaling, and emotional contagion, which collectively intensify polarization in digital spaces. By integrating linguistic analysis with psychological perspectives, this research highlights hate speech as a form of moralized discourse that escalates affective conflict. The study concludes by recommending digital literacy interventions that extend beyond content moderation to address underlying evaluative and emotional processes, with the aim of fostering empathy, critical reflection, and more constructive online political engagement.

Abstract

Intensive reading and listening skills are things that need to be optimized for students of the Indonesian Language Education Study Program at UIN Kediri. This is because the profile of graduates of this study program, one of which is to become novice educators in the field of Indonesian. This study aims to describe (1) the dominance of micro skills in understanding academic discourse, (2) the limitations of macro-level meaning in intensive reading and listening, and (3) the reconstruction of micro-macro relationships in language learning theory. The method in this study uses a mixed research method that combines qualitative and quantitative methods. This study uses a Concurrent Design model. The results of the study show that of the six indicators of intensive reading skills, there is one indicator that needs to be improved, namely the ability to find the main idea. Meanwhile, the other five indicators have met the effectiveness aspect. As for the four indicators of intensive listening skills, there are two indicators that need to be improved, namely inferential listening and reorganization. Learning innovations as an implication of these findings, among others, can be carried out through the use of gradual scaffolding, development of question banks, combining bottom-up and top-down strategies, paraphrasing activities, identifying keywords, utilizing HOTS questions, and other innovative exercises.

Abstract

The urgency of this study is aligned with the fourth goal of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and the fourth mission of Asta Cita Indonesia, which emphasize inclusive and equitable quality education. This study aims to: (1) describe the role of the special assistant teacher (SET) in differentiated learning for dysgraphic students in Indonesian language subjects; (2) explain the function of SET in implementing differentiated learning; and (3) analyze the collaboration between the Indonesian language teacher and SET in supporting dysgraphic students’ learning development. This qualitative study employed participatory observation in class 11 Social Studies at Al-Firdaus High School, Surakarta. Data were collected through classroom observation and interviews with the SET, the Indonesian language teacher, and dysgraphic students. Using scaffolding theory within the zone of proximal development (ZPD) as the analytical framework, the findings show that: (1) SET acts as a “more capable peer” by providing individual mentoring and simplifying instructions to enhance comprehension; (2) SET functions to maintain students’ focus, reduce task complexity, and provide guided examples tailored to students’ needs; and (3) effective collaboration includes joint planning, material and assessment adjustments, and coordinated assistance during learning. The study concludes that scaffolding within the ZPD supports dysgraphic students’ participation and that structured collaboration between SET and subject teachers strengthens inclusive differentiated learning practices.

Abstract

Conventional news text instruction often neglects oral communicative competence, prioritizing written analysis over speaking performance. This study investigates the effectiveness of integrating Project-Based Learning (PjBL) with authentic news video production to enhance seventh-grade students' speaking skills within the Merdeka Curriculum. Employing a qualitative case study design, data were collected through methodological triangulation comprising limited participatory observation, semi-structured in-depth interviews, supportive questionnaires, and documentary analysis of student scripts and video products within a coastal-region SMP. Analysis followed Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña's interactive model through iterative cycles of data reduction, display, and conclusion verification. Findings revealed that 70 percent of students demonstrated enhanced comprehension of news text structure through functional internalization of 5W+1H elements and the inverted pyramid principle during rigorous scriptwriting. Learning motivation increased by 65 percent, attributed to the authentic experience of "becoming real reporters" that conferred social meaning upon academic tasks. Findings indicate that transforming video from passive input to active speaking output significantly improved students' fluency, confidence, and paralinguistic awareness through the 'authentic audience effect.' However, critical analysis reveals that high-stakes performance exacerbated speaking anxiety for marginal learners, necessitating differentiated scaffolding. The study concludes that authentic video production fosters 'performative multiliteracies,' shifting literacy from consumption to embodied public performance. These insights offer educators a critical framework for designing equitable speaking interventions that balance technological innovation with psychological safety.
