Abstract

One of the fundamental problems of culture is the management of discourse. An individual can sometimes become an object of manipulation by the person controlling the discourse. During the proper discourse, it is possible to control and guide both people with mental disorders and those in custody. In modern scientific literature, the term discourse replaces the terms "style" and "language". For example, if earlier the expressions Shakespeare's style or Shakespeare's language were used, now the expressions political discourse, Ronaldo Reagan's discourse are more popular. In the research work, analysis of questions such as "Whose discourse? How discourse?" is given place, including the  the study of discourse experience. Discourse - has stylistic features behind which there is a certain ideology. Here, the topic of the discussion, methods, scope of influence, etc. play an important role.

Abstract

This article discusses character education practices in the United States, the United Kingdom and Indonesia based on existing literature. Character education practices in the United States tend to use a comprehensive approach that is integrated with the academic curriculum, while the UK emphasizes the development of core values and a whole school approach.

This article aims to provide a comprehensive overview of how character education practices in Indonesia compare with the US and the UK, with in-depth analyses of the key elements and practical implementation in the three countries.

Abstract

Reading proficiency is a foundational skill in elementary education, significantly influencing students' academic success and personal development. This study investigates the initial reading abilities of 2nd-grade students at Integrated Islamic Elementary School Tahfidzul Quran An-Nahl, an institution that combines general and religious education. The research identifies key areas for improvement and evaluates the effectiveness of current teaching methods. Using a descriptive quantitative approach, the study assesses three main indicators: pronunciation accuracy, reading fluency, and voice clarity. Data were collected through reading tests and teacher questionnaires. Results reveal significant challenges, with most students rated as "Poor" or "Fair." Factors such as inconsistent phonetic teaching, insufficient reading practice, and unsupportive learning environments contribute to these difficulties. Recommendations include enhancing phonetic instruction, increasing reading practice, and fostering a supportive reading environment. This study provides insights for developing effective literacy programs in similar educational contexts, aiming for holistic improvements in students' reading skills
