Abstract

Second language learning faces significant challenges, such as low student motivation, limited resources, and a lack of teacher training, which can hinder learning effectiveness. Ineffective educational management in curriculum and language policy implementation may exacerbate these conditions, making exploring effective strategies for supporting second language acquisition essential. This study aims to identify and analyze effective educational management strategies in supporting second language acquisition and solutions to challenges encountered in their implementation. Additionally, this research seeks to provide recommendations on policies and teaching approaches to enhance the quality of second language learning. The research method used is a literature review involving collecting and analyzing relevant articles and scientific journals. This study explores various literature on educational management, second language teaching strategies, and technology in language learning. The findings indicate that effective educational management—such as curriculum development based on authentic communication, the use of technology in learning, and teacher training—can improve the effectiveness of second language acquisition. The main challenges include low student motivation and limited resource access, which can be addressed through technology-based approaches and more inclusive policies.

Abstract

In the rapidly evolving era of globalization, children in Indonesia face significant challenges in preserving their local cultural identity. Several factors contribute to this, including low interest in literature based on local culture and the strong influence of global culture, which dominates children’s media and education. Local culture-based literacy is a solution to strengthen children’s cultural awareness and local identity. This study aims to analyze the role of local culture-based literacy in shaping children’s cultural identity amidst globalization. Additionally, it seeks to identify the challenges in implementing such literacy and explore potential solutions. The research method used is a literature review, collecting relevant scholarly articles on local culture-based literacy and children’s cultural identity. This study examines existing research findings to identify factors influencing the effectiveness of cultural literacy in strengthening children’s cultural identity in the globalization era. The results indicate that local culture-based literacy positively shapes children’s cultural identity. This literacy enhances pride in local culture, despite challenges such as low reading interest in culturally-based materials, limited access, and the influence of global culture, which remain significant obstacles. Furthermore, the use of technology and educator training can serve as solutions to address these challenges.

Abstract

The problem in this study is the lack of understanding of how language policies implemented in secondary schools can influence students’ motivation and performance in foreign language learning and the role of social and cultural aspects in the learning process. This study aims to examine the impact of language policy on students’ motivation, performance, and comprehension, considering a psycholinguistic approach and the influence of both local and global cultures. This study employs a literature review method, analyzing various relevant previous studies. The findings indicate that language policies integrating cultural elements and communicative approaches can enhance students’ motivation, improve their performance in language exams, and deepen their understanding of the learned language. Policies that consider social and cultural aspects contribute positively to students’ emotional connection with the foreign language and enhance their communication skills.

Abstract

The problem raised in this study is the challenge local products face in entering an increasingly competitive global market, particularly in integrating local culture and folklore into product marketing strategies. The use of local cultural elements has the potential to be a strong differentiation tool, but it often encounters obstacles in terms of artistic sensitivity and international market acceptance. This research aims to analyze how local culture and folklore can be applied in local product marketing to compete in the global market, as well as to identify the challenges and opportunities companies face in integrating local culture into their marketing strategies. This study employs a literature review approach, where various relevant sources are collected and analyzed to understand the application of local culture in product marketing and explore related challenges and opportunities. The findings of this study indicate that integrating local culture into product marketing can enhance product appeal in the global market, increase consumer loyalty, and build stronger emotional connections with international consumers. However, achieving this success requires in-depth market research and a culturally sensitive approach to avoid miscommunication or cultural distortion.

Abstract

The decline in the use of local languages among Indonesia’s younger generations is an urgent issue, where the dominance of Indonesian and foreign languages is increasingly limiting the space for regional languages in daily life. This study aims to identify strategies for revitalizing local languages through the educational curriculum and to examine the challenges encountered in its implementation. The research method used in this study is a literature review, analyzing relevant articles, journals, and policy documents. The findings indicate that although integrating regional languages into the curriculum has been undertaken, significant challenges include teacher training, limited high-quality teaching materials, and insufficient policy support. Therefore, to ensure the revitalization of local languages, collaboration between the government, educational institutions, and the community is needed, along with developing a more adaptive curriculum and supporting resources.

Abstract

Indonesia’s linguistic and cultural diversity is seriously threatened due to globalization, technological acceleration, and the declining intergenerational transmission of local languages. This study explores the strategic role of digital transformation in preserving local language, literature, and culture within the framework of Society 5.0. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the paper analyzes various digital initiatives—such as educational websites, mobile applications, and multimedia content—as tools for revitalization and dissemination. Results show that digital platforms support documentation and access and strengthen literacy, 21st-century competencies (5C), and cultural identity among younger generations. Furthermore, the research highlights the importance of multisector collaboration and community-based sustainability models to overcome challenges such as limited digital infrastructure, lack of linguistic documentation, and human resource constraints. Digitalization thus emerges not merely as a technological adaptation, but as a transformative movement for cultural resilience, innovation, and global relevance. The findings offer a framework for integrating local heritage into the future digital ecosystem.

Abstract

Literacy is not only about reading and writing skills, but also includes the ability to understand and use information critically, so that a culture of reading literacy is critical in developing children's knowledge and insight. However, literacy conditions in Indonesia are still low. Therefore, the family environment plays a vital role as the primary foundation in fostering a culture of reading literacy in elementary school children through role models, support, and provision of facilities that support reading activities at home. The study aimed to identify the most influential family factors in building a literacy culture and formulate practical strategies that parents can apply to create a home environment conducive to developing elementary school children's literacy. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method. Data was collected through documentation studies of relevant literature to build a conceptual framework and an in-depth understanding of the topic. Data analysis was carried out through three main stages: data reduction, data presentation, and drawing and verifying conclusions. The study results showed that the family environment plays a vital role in fostering a culture of reading literacy in elementary school children through role models, emotional support, and adequate reading facilities. The active involvement of parents in children's literacy activities has been shown to increase interest in and improve reading habits from an early age.

Abstract

Code-switching is increasingly prevalent in digital communication, particularly on popular platforms such as Instagram, WhatsApp, TikTok, and Twitter. This trend reflects a shift in communication practices within increasingly multilingual and global digital spaces. This study examines code-switching in digital communication and the factors influencing this phenomenon, including social context, audience, and the types of platforms used. This research analyses various journals, articles, and previous studies on code-switching in digital contexts using a qualitative approach and a literature review method. The results show that code-switching is influenced by social and psychological factors, with speakers often switching languages to adapt to their audience or to express cultural identity. Other findings indicate that code-switching is a communication strategy that enriches digital interaction and strengthens user social ties. Additionally, local languages are more dominant on private platforms, while English is more frequently used on platforms with international audiences. This research provides new insights into the dynamics of language in digital communication and its relevance to shaping social identity in cyberspace.

Abstract

This study explores the phenomenon of semantic change in language influenced by pop culture, particularly through film and music. The use of terms in these media, which carry social and cultural implications, triggers shift in communication styles and the formation of social identity. The aim of this research is to examine how the etymology of words popularized by film and music undergoes semantic transformation and how this process affects broader social values. A qualitative method with a literature review approach was employed, analyzing data from various films, songs, and scholarly sources. The findings indicate that terms emerging in film and music often become symbols of social change, introducing new concepts that enrich everyday language. This transformation not only reflects societal shifts but also fosters global cultural connectivity.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of popular language on the transformation of meaning and social identity in contemporary society, particularly within digital culture and social media. The identified problem is how popular language develops and functions as a social symbol that shapes behavior and social identity in the digital age. This study employs a qualitative approach using a literature review method, with data obtained from various journals, articles, and previous studies on the etymology of popular language and its impacts. The findings show that popular language, such as the terms “selfie,” “hashtag,” and “viral,” not only reflects digital phenomena but also functions to form a more inclusive social identity and introduces new values into society. Additionally, these terms significantly influence shaping social trends and reinforcing existing social norms.
