Abstract

Fake news has become widely consumed by society in all circles, dealing with the intentions and dangers. This study investigates how students identify fake news and educate the community on its circulation. This study employed a qualitative approach and a descriptive qualitative design. It investigated the fake news found, how to identify it, and how to educate others about fake news. This study recruited sixty-four participants, comprising students who had been educated on the characteristics of fake news and critical reading skills. To collect the data, this study used a questionnaire and interviews. The identification of fake news included several steps, which depend on the character and form of the news itself. These steps began with identifying the image or appearance of the news itself and then examining the sentence patterns used by the news to persuade readers to believe it. In addition, they were also willing and able to educate other people not to believe fake news easily. They took several steps, including educating people on how to identify the date of publication and checking the source. This study provided practical information about the steps involved in identifying and educating people about the widespread dissemination of fake news.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the opportunities and challenges faced by students in the Islamic Communication and Broadcasting (ICB) Study Program as they strive to improve their English public speaking skills and to explain the strategies employed by both students and lecturers in overcoming these challenges. This study was motivated by the gap between English language learning, which previously focused on grammar and reading, and the real needs of ICB students in public speaking in the context of Islam and media. This study used a qualitative approach with a classroom-based research design involving 31 students in the study program. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and document analysis and analyzed thematically. The study findings demonstrate three main findings: (1) learning public speaking based on professional contexts opens up great opportunities to increase student participation, self-confidence, and communicative abilities, (2) main challenges include speaking anxiety, limited vocabulary, and lack of authentic exposure, and (3) effective strategies include a task-based approach, the use of digital technology, and active collaboration between lecturers and students. This finding confirms the need to develop a contextual and integrative English for specific purposes (ESP) curriculum for ICB students.
