Abstract

Reading has various benefits in everyday life, especially for teenagers. This study aims to explore the impact of reading novels on adolescents' literacy, creativity, critical thinking and mental health. Through the analysis of data obtained from 12 respondents aged 19-20 years old, results show that 100% of respondents agreed that reading novels can improve their literacy and creativity. The knowledge gained from reading helps teens develop creative thinking and critical thinking skills. The survey results also indicated that 100% of respondents found reading novels helpful in coping with emotions and stress, with genres as diverse as romance, fiction, history and politics. In addition, this study confirms the importance of emotional intelligence in helping adolescents recognize and manage their feelings. This finding is in line with previous research showing that reading interest is positively related to critical thinking and critical reading skills. Overall, the results of this study suggest that reading novels not only improves cognitive skills but also provides significant emotional support for adolescents in facing the challenges of daily life.

Abstract

This study investigates how English subtitle translation shapes cross‑cultural understanding, interpretation, and aesthetic appreciation of the Indian film Chennai Express. Drawing on audio-visual translation theory, especially work on defamiliarization, cultural adaptation, and multimodality, the research examines how subtitles mediate linguistic humour, regional dialects, and culturally loaded references for international audiences. A mixed qualitative design combines multimodal discourse analysis of selected scenes with viewer response questionnaires modelled on cross‑national reception and comprehension studies of subtitled film. Analysis focuses on translation strategies (literal, free, hybrid; domestication vs. foreignization), timing, and stylistic choices, and how these interact with visual and auditory cues to construct meaning and emotion. Findings are expected to show that while subtitles generally secure narrative comprehension across cultures, they also defamiliarize the viewing experience and selectively dilute or reframe culture‑specific humour, social hierarchies, and regional identities. The conclusion argues that high‑quality, culturally sensitive subtitling is crucial for preserving the film’s comic energy and postcolonial cultural textures while enabling global accessibility and intercultural dialogue.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the cultural dynamics and challenges involved in achieving equivalence in translation, focusing on balancing meaning and context to ensure accurate and culturally sensitive communication. The methodology includes qualitative analyses of translation cases across literary, technical, and survey contexts, employing comparative textual analysis, interviews with translators, and content analysis to examine strategies such as dynamic equivalence, localization, adaptation, and consultation with cultural informants. Analysis reveals that translators must navigate complex cultural references, idiomatic expressions, and emotional connotations while maintaining semantic, conceptual, and content equivalence. Findings highlight the importance of translators acting as cultural mediators who balance fidelity to the source text with necessary adaptations to the target culture’s norms and sensitivities. The study concludes that successful translation requires a nuanced approach that integrates linguistic accuracy with cultural competence to bridge gaps between source and target audiences effectively. Future translation efforts should emphasize collaboration with cultural experts and adopt flexible strategies to preserve both meaning and cultural context.

Abstract

Mastering writing skills is important for vocational school students, yet they are low in motivation due to monotonous learning media. This study measures the potential of Canva as a learning medium to enhance writing motivation among vocational high school students. The research employs a Pretest-Posttest Control-Group Design with 70 students in grade 10 enrolled in hotel accommodation at SMKN 1 Kalasan. Participants were cluster-randomised into a treatment and a control group. Data were collected using pre- and post-test questionnaires. The questionnaire demonstrated strong validity and high reliability. Quantitative data were analysed using descriptive statistics and One-Way Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA), resulting in significant treatment effects (p < .05) when utilizing Canva. The experiment group's learning with Canva consistently shows higher motivation and engagement. Canva-based instruction effectively enhanced students' writing motivation in a vocational ESP setting. Integrating Canva into English language writing instruction effectively increases students’ motivation to learn. These research findings supported the utilisation of interactive and visually rich media in the classroom. The integration of Canva can foster students’ motivation, engagement, and the development of writing skills. Students should use Canva for their learning materials, as it is one of the learning facilities provided by the Ministry of Education.

Abstract

Family communication patterns play a critical role in shaping adolescents’ educational experiences and decisions. This study examines the relationship between family communication patterns and school dropout intention, with particular emphasis on the mediating role of academic resilience among high school students in Cambodia. A quantitative survey was conducted with 243 students selected through simple random sampling, measuring conversation orientation, conformity orientation, academic resilience, and school dropout intention. The findings reveal that family communication patterns significantly influence both academic resilience and students’ intention to leave school. Academic resilience mediates the relationships between both dimensions of family communication patterns and school dropout intention, highlighting its role as a key psychological mechanism linking family communication processes to educational outcomes. This study extends the application of family communication patterns theory by demonstrating its relevance in a non-Western, collectivist context and by integrating academic resilience as a mediating construct. It further underscores how culturally embedded family communication practices shape students’ capacity to persist in school. The findings offer interdisciplinary insights for education, social, and communication research, while providing practical implications for educators, policymakers, and families in addressing school dropout intention through strengthened communication and resilience-building strategies.
