Abstract

This study examines how conversational implicature operates within the YouTube podcast How America Lost Faith in Everything, exploring how implied meanings reflect political distrust and shape audience interpretation. Drawing on Grice’s Cooperative Principle and Levinson’s pragmatic framework, this research analyses selected segments from the podcast to identify implicatures used to express criticism toward institutional authority. Using a qualitative descriptive method, the researcher transcribed episodes and conducted thematic coding to uncover implicit messages embedded in the discourse. The findings reveal that implicature serves as a subtle rhetorical tool for shaping socio-political narratives expressing scepticism, irony, and ideological stance without direct confrontation. This study contributes to understanding how digital political communication constructs meaning through indirectness and how YouTube discourse influences public perception of trust in institutions.

Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of the Word Association Strategy in improving the vocabulary mastery of eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 4 Palu. Vocabulary learning in the classroom was dominated by conventional techniques that provided limited opportunities for students to develop meaningful word understanding and usage. To address this issue, the study employed a quantitative method using a quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test control groups. The population consisted of all eighth-grade students in the 2025/2026 academic year, from which two classes (VIII Cempedak and VIII Manggis) were selected through cluster random sampling. Class VIII Cempedak as the experimental group (n = 32) was taught using the Word Association Strategy, while Class VIII Manggis as the control group (n = 30) was taught using conventional methods. The study focused on students’ vocabulary mastery of word meaning and usage, particularly common nouns, action verbs, and descriptive adjectives. Data were collected through vocabulary tests and analyzed using descriptive statistics and an independent samples t-test at the 0.05 level of significance. The results showed that the experimental group’s mean score increased from 53.46 in the pre-test to 81.85 in the post-test, while the control group improved from 55.04 to 69.29. The t-test result revealed that the t-count (5.50) was higher than the t-table value (1.671), indicating a significant difference between the two groups. These findings demonstrate that the Word Association Strategy effectively enhances students’ vocabulary mastery by facilitating meaningful word connections. Practically, English teachers can incorporate structured word association activities into regular vocabulary instruction to promote deeper word retention and more active student engagement in junior high school classrooms.

Abstract

Students’ motivation to write in English as a foreign language (EFL) classroom is often limited by difficulties in vocabulary, grammar, idea development, and text organization. To address this issue, Project-Based Learning (PjBL) integrated with digital tools can be used to create more engaging and meaningful writing activities. This study was conducted at SMAN 6 Karawang and involved twelve eleventh-grade students who participated in a narrative writing project. This study employed a qualitative case study design, with data collected through open-ended questionnaires, classroom observations, teacher feedback, and students’ narrative writing projects. n the project, Padlet was used to support students’ narrative writing, sharing, and feedback activities, while Canva was used to design the poster or cover as the visual product of the project. The findings show that the integration of PjBL with digital tools increased students’ motivation to practice writing in English. The most significant motivational changes experienced by students were increased confidence in expressing ideas, greater enjoyment in writing activities, stronger creativity through visual design, and higher willingness to revise their writing after receiving feedback. Canva helped students design visual posters or covers related to their narrative projects, while Padlet encouraged writing practice, interaction, appreciation, and timely feedback from the teacher and peers. Although some students faced technical challenges, especially those with limited digital design skills, the overall learning process helped students become more engaged, autonomous, and motivated to write. Therefore, this study suggests that technology-integrated PjBL can support students’ motivation in EFL narrative writing by combining creativity, collaboration, and meaningful feedback.

Abstract

This study aims to explore how Project-Based Learning (PjBL) is used in software engineering classrooms and how it can foster students’ English-speaking competence. This research employed a qualitative descriptive designing involving 40 eleventh-grade students from the Software Engineering (Rekayasa Perangkat Lunak) program and one English teacher at a vocational high school in Garut, Indonesia.  Data were collected through classroom observations involving 40 students and one teacher, followed by semi-structured interviews with six selected students and the teacher. The findings revealed that PjBL was used through systematic stages, including starting with essential question, designing a project, scheduling, monitoring, assessing outcomes, and evaluating the experiences. The analysis reveals that PjBL functioned as a discourse-construction pedagogy, fostering students’ cohesion through the use of linking devices and improving coherence through logical organization of ideas during project presentations. Although some students still relied on memorization and faced vocabulary limitations and anxiety, continuous teacher scaffolding and feedback supported their gradual improvement. Thus, PjBL can foster students’ English-speaking competence by systematically strengthening discourse competence. However, as this study was limited to one vocational classroom with a small sample and focused only on discourse competence, further research with larger and more diverse participants and broader speaking competence aspects is needed to examine the wider applicability and long-term impact of PjBL.

Abstract

This qualitative content analysis examines gender representation in Indonesian government-mandated English Language Teaching (ELT) textbooks for primary schools to assess alignment between national gender equality policies and pedagogical materials. Findings reveal significant divergence from international norms. Character distribution showed female predominance (57% vs. 43% male) with female protagonist, reversing typical 60-70% male dominance documented in ELT materials globally. Linguistic analysis demonstrated balanced pronoun usage (48% masculine, 52% feminine) with zero generic masculine, male-first ordering, or gendered adjectives. Activity representation showed minimal stereotyping with counter-stereotypical examples, though limited to domestic and school contexts. Occupational representation proved critically limited, depicting only one professional role (male teacher), creating symbolic void in career diversity exposure. The textbook successfully translates Kurikulum Merdeka gender equality policies into content, achieving neutrality through bias elimination but not transformation through active norm challenge. The results place this material at the top of the global ELT textbook rankings for linguistic visibility and equality, while exposing the ongoing employment gap. Findings demonstrate compatibility between Islamic values and gender equality, contradicting assumptions about cultural barriers in Muslim-majority contexts. The occupational void represents critical intervention point during formative developmental years. Study contributes empirical evidence of policy-to-practice translation success and identifies actionable pathways for Indonesian educational material improvement.
