Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of using the Telegram application as an innovative digital learning medium in the Malay Culture course at Universitas Riau. The integration of technology in education has become essential in enhancing learning outcomes and student engagement, particularly in cultural-based subjects that require active interaction and collaboration. This research employed a qualitative descriptive method, with data collected through questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. The results indicate that the Telegram application provides significant benefits in facilitating the learning process. It enables efficient distribution of learning materials, smooth communication between lecturers and students, and the creation of interactive discussion spaces. Moreover, Telegram’s features—such as group chats, file sharing, and polls—encourage student participation, improve accessibility to resources, and foster collaborative learning. The study also found that students felt more motivated, independent, and responsible in managing their learning activities through this platform. Overall, the use of Telegram has proven to be effective, practical, and adaptable in supporting the teaching and learning process of the Malay Culture course. Therefore, it is recommended that Telegram be utilized not only in cultural studies but also across other academic disciplines to enhance the quality of online and blended learning environments.

Abstract

The Basiacuong tradition is one of the oral cultural heritages of the Kampar (Ocu) people in Riau, which is rich in philosophical, ethical, and religious values. This study aims to analyze the expressions in the Ocu language that appear in Basiacuong practices using an ethnolinguistic approach. The research data were obtained through audiovisual observations of Basiacuong videos published in digital media, then transcribed and translated into Indonesian. The analysis was carried out using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman (1994) through three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate the existence of eight main utterances that include proverbs, traditional pantun, advice, religious expressions, and social and philosophical expressions. These utterances function to instill moral values, strengthen social ethics, entertain, and legitimize customs through Islamic teachings. This study confirms that the Basiacuong tradition is not merely an oral performance, but a means of inheriting cultural identity and an educational medium that remains relevant in maintaining social harmony in the Kampar community.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of student organizations, role conflict, and self-regulation on student academic achievement. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. The research sample consisted of 200 students of the Faculty of Economics and Business, Universitas Negeri Surabaya(Unesa) who are active in student organizations. Data collection was conducted through distributing questionnaires with a Likert scale. Data analysis used multiple linear regression, accompanied by tests of validity, reliability, normality, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity. The results showed that student organizations have a positive effect on student academic achievement. Role conflict has a negative effect on achievement. And self-regulation has a positive effect on academic achievement. All three variables simultaneously have a significant effect on academic achievement. The results of this study confirm that involvement in student organizations can have a positive impact on academic achievement if combined with strong self-regulation skills and effective role conflict management. Therefore, developing self-regulation skills and time management training should be part of student organization development programs in higher education.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the semantic shift in language within digital culture through the perspectives of linguistics and the philosophy of language. The focus of the study is directed toward the phenomenon of memes, emojis, abbreviations, and popular expressions that have rapidly developed on social media platforms and often deviate from their standard meanings. The research employs a descriptive qualitative method using content analysis combined with a philosophical literature review. Data were obtained from various digital platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter/X, as well as relevant academic sources. The results indicate that semantic shifts in digital language occur through patterns of meaning expansion, metaphorization, polysemy, and linguistic innovation. From the standpoint of the philosophy of language, these findings align with Wittgenstein's meaning is use theory and Austin's speech act theory, both of which emphasize that meaning is determined by the practical use of language and speech acts within social contexts. Thus, the changes in meaning in digital culture are not merely linguistic but also reflect the social, cultural, and technological dynamics that shape modern communication patterns.

Abstract

This This article aims to conduct an in-depth analysis of Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono’s (SBY) leadership practices during his presidency (2004–2014), highlighting how his character, leadership style, policy implementation, and responses to the nation’s various challenges influenced the direction of Indonesia’s national development. The research employs a descriptive qualitative case study method by analyzing literature sources, government documents, state policies, and relevant academic studies. The findings show that SBY’s leadership was characterized by a democratic-participatory model with a charismatic touch, guiding Indonesia through critical periods such as major natural disasters, global economic changes, and challenges in consolidating democracy. The use of soft diplomacy, political consensus, and transparent governance became hallmarks of the SBY era, accompanied by bureaucratic reform efforts, social innovation, and community involvement in policy-making. This article also discusses the major achievements of SBY’s administration, responses to criticism, and the leadership legacy as a model for future national leaders.

Abstract

This study developed a Discovery Learning model with a Meaningful Learning approach to improve students' critical thinking skills in Economics at SMAN 2 Tulang Bawang Udik. The study used the ADDIE model and produced a conceptual model, lesson plans, student worksheets, and HOTS assessment instruments. Expert validation results showed that the products were feasible, practicality tests obtained a very practical category, and effectiveness tests with a Nonequivalent Control Group design showed that the critical thinking of students in the experimental class was higher than that of the control class. These results confirm that this learning model is feasible, practical, and effective, and can be a guide for teachers for active, contextual, and high-level thinking skills-oriented learning. Additionally, the integration of Discovery Learning and Meaningful Learning provides a structured and student-centered learning process that encourages learners to construct knowledge independently while connecting concepts to real-life contexts. The resulting learning tools also support teachers in implementing systematic instruction that fosters student engagement and deeper understanding. Overall, the developed model contributes to improving instructional quality in Economics education and offers an innovative alternative for enhancing students’ cognitive abilities, particularly in critical thinking.

Abstract

This study focuses on the development of a case study–based digital book aimed at improving learning quality in Office Management education, where students are required to master both conceptual understanding and practical decision-making skills. Despite the increasing use of digital learning resources in higher education, existing instructional materials often lack contextual integration between theory and real workplace scenarios, resulting in limited student engagement and insufficient opportunities for problem-based learning. To address this issue, the present research aims to design and develop an interactive digital book enriched with authentic case studies that align with course learning outcomes. The study employed a Research and Development approach using the 4-D model Define, Design, and Develop to produce learning materials validated by experts and tested through limited trials. The results show that the digital book achieved high feasibility, with an average expert validation score of 87.33%, while student responses reached 93.87%, indicating strong acceptance, improved motivation, and enhanced perceived understanding. The synthesis of these findings demonstrates that embedding case-based learning elements into digital book formats can effectively support critical thinking, contextual reasoning, and independent learning in Office Management courses. In conclusion, the developed digital book is classified as highly feasible for instructional use and holds substantial potential to enhance learning experiences, although further research is recommended to examine its broader effectiveness and long-term impact on student learning outcomes.
