Abstract

This study explores the impact of English kids' songs on vocabulary mastery among fifth-grade students at SD Islam Assalam. Utilizing a quasi-experimental design, the study compares an experimental group, taught vocabulary through English kids' songs, with a control group that followed traditional textbook-based instruction. Both groups completed pre- and post-tests to measure vocabulary acquisition. Results indicated a significant improvement in the experimental group, with an average post-test score increase of 42.9%, compared to a 10.3% improvement in the control group. The experimental group showed gains across different vocabulary categories—nouns, verbs, and adjectives—suggesting that songs enhance vocabulary retention through repetition, rhythm, and emotional engagement. These findings support the use of songs as a viable instructional tool for vocabulary learning, particularly for young learners who benefit from multisensory and associative learning techniques. While promising, the study's limitations, such as a small sample size and short intervention period, suggest the need for further research to validate these findings across diverse educational settings. Future studies should consider expanding sample sizes, extending the duration, and comparing song-based learning with other multimedia approaches. This research offers valuable insights for educators and curriculum developers, underscoring the potential of integrating songs to make vocabulary learning both engaging and effective.

Abstract

The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education has gained attention for its potential to enhance student learning, yet limited research has focused on AI-powered tools for providing comprehensive feedback on writing. Most existing studies have concentrated on grammar correction, leaving a gap in understanding how AI can support broader writing development. This study aimed to examine the effect of Google Gemini, an AI-powered chatbot, on writing proficiency in a higher education setting, focusing on grammar, vocabulary, coherence, and task achievement. A quasi-experimental design was used with two groups of 40 students from the Sharia Faculty at UIN Raden Intan Lampung. The experimental group used Google Gemini for writing feedback, while the control group received traditional instruction. Both groups completed pre- and post-test writing tasks, assessed using a standardized rubric. Data were analyzed with paired-sample t-tests to compare improvements between groups. The results showed that the experimental group made significantly greater gains in writing proficiency than the control group, especially in grammar, vocabulary, and coherence. Students in the experimental group also reported higher satisfaction with the immediate, personalized feedback from the AI chatbot. The control group showed modest improvements with traditional feedback, but these were less pronounced. This study suggests that AI tools like Google Gemini can effectively improve writing skills by offering real-time, personalized feedback. It highlights the potential for AI to complement traditional teaching methods, though future research with larger and more diverse samples is needed to explore its impact on higher-order writing skills and across various educational contexts

Abstract

The integration of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) in English writing assessment has gained considerable attention for its potential to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of evaluations. However, while AI tools like Grammarly and GPT-based platforms have been employed for basic writing assessments, their effectiveness in evaluating more complex writing aspects remains underexplored. This study aims to fill this gap by examining the role of generative AI in automating English writing assessment, focusing on its benefits, challenges, and implications for both students and educators. The research design is a mixed-methods approach, incorporating both quantitative and qualitative data through surveys and semi-structured interviews. The study involved 100 students and 10 educators from the Faculty of Sharia at UIN Raden Intan Lampung, who had experience using AI-based writing tools. Data was collected through structured surveys and in-depth interviews, as well as by comparing AI-generated writing assessments with human grading. The findings revealed that while AI tools are highly effective in evaluating grammar and structure, they struggle to assess higher-order writing skills, such as content coherence and critical thinking. Both students and educators acknowledged the time-saving benefits of AI tools, but also highlighted the limitations of AI in understanding nuanced writing aspects. The study implies that AI tools can complement traditional assessment methods but should not fully replace human judgment, especially in complex writing tasks. Future research should focus on enhancing AI algorithms to better assess the depth of writing and address ethical concerns regarding data privacy and biases in AI models.

Abstract

Proverbs are utilized in all languages to communicate particular messages. However, when proverbs are translated from one language to another, translation difficulties arise due to the cultural and linguistic connotations inherent to proverbs. The concept of power, and more specifically the social power of organizations or institutions, is typically considered to be one of the most important aspects of critical study on discourse. The role of women that is wife, daughter, mother or sister is being described and analyzed throughout discourse concepts such as power and social inequality. This study presents violence in critical discourse analysis of  Proverbs of English  to examine how power relationships of different genders are determined through linguistic choices in different languages/societies. The data of this study are 17 proverbs which have been selected from different sources about proverbs which are the most prominent in the English culture. Van Dijk (1988/1995) Model of Dominance and Power is used: When it comes to power problems, van Dijk (1995) tends to take a cognitive approach. The study has shown that Femininity can be seen as an established ideological term, portraying women as mere victims of subjugation.

Abstract

Sociolinguistics is a branch of linguistics that examines the relationship between society and language. When elements of one language are combined with another, the phenomenon is referred to as code-mixing. Maudy Ayunda, a well-known Indonesian artist, frequently employs code-mixing in several of her videos on her official YouTube Music channel. This study aimed to analyze the types of code-mixing used in her content. A descriptive qualitative method was employed, with data collected through documentation and note-taking. Hoffman’s framework was applied to categorize the types of code-mixing, while Sudijono’s formula was used to calculate their frequency. The findings revealed twenty-three instances of code-mixing. The most dominant type was intra-sentential code-mixing, with 15 occurrences (65.2%), followed by intra-lexical code-mixing with 6 occurrences (26.1%), and code-mixing involving a change in pronunciation with 2 occurrences (8.7%). These results indicate that intra-sentential code-mixing is the most prevalent strategy in Maudy Ayunda’s YouTube videos, while phonological code-mixing appears less frequently. The implications of this study suggest that digital platforms, such as YouTube, play a significant role in promoting linguistic hybridity in Indonesia. The frequent use of English code-mixing by a popular public figure not only demonstrates her bilingual competence but also influences audience perceptions of global identity and language prestige. This highlights how code-mixing in online popular culture may contribute to shaping linguistic practices among younger generations and provides meaningful insights for further sociolinguistic research on language use in digital media.

Abstract

The present research paper aims to examine and explore human rights issues in Sarojini Naidu’s ‘The Broken Wing’, Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s ‘The Cry of the Children’ and Langston Hughes’ ‘The Negro Speaks of Rivers’. These verses span diverse historical, cultural, and political landscapes. Poetry has long served as a powerful medium for articulating the human condition, voicing dissent, and advocating for justice. Each poem is highly evocative and deeply rooted in its socio-political context, revealing the poet’s deep engagement with themes such as freedom, oppression, and the resilience of human spirit. Naidu’s ‘The Broken Wing’ reflects the colonial and nationalistic struggles of early 20th-century India, portraying the yearning for liberation and spiritual dignity, and reflects India’s spiritual resilience of a colonized people. Browning’s ‘The Cry of the Children’ is a searing indictment of child labour in Victorian England, highlighting the moral failure of industrial society. Hughes’s ‘The Negro Speaks of Rivers’ delves into African American identity and historical memory, emphasizing continuity, heritage, and endurance in the face of racial injustice. Through these texts, the poets not only document suffering but also inspire resistance and hope, making poetry a vital space for human rights discourse.
