Abstract

This study examined the effects of teacher work motivation and teacher professionalism on instructional quality in public elementary schools in Banyuasin III District. A quantitative ex post facto design was employed. The population consisted of 38 teachers from two public elementary schools, all of whom were included through total sampling. Data were collected using Likert-scale questionnaires and documentation. The instruments were valid and highly reliable, with Cronbach's alpha coefficients of 0.909 for teacher work motivation, 0.914 for teacher professionalism, and 0.891 for instructional quality. Data were analyzed through descriptive statistics, prerequisite tests, simple linear regression, and multiple linear regression using SPSS version 26. Teacher work motivation had a positive and significant effect on instructional quality (B = 0.306; t = 4.910; p < 0.001; R² = 40.1%). Teacher professionalism also had a positive and significant effect (B = 0.336; t = 4.329; p < 0.001; R² = 34.2%). Simultaneously, both variables significantly predicted instructional quality (F = 17.923; p < 0.001; R² = 50.6%), with the regression equation Y = 2.344 + 0.222X1 + 0.211X2. These findings show that instructional quality can be strengthened by sustaining teachers' work motivation and continuously developing their professional competence.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the influence of managerial competence and employee discipline on public service quality at the Education and Culture Office of Banyuasin Regency. The study employed a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The population comprised 167 employees, and 118 respondents were selected using the Slovin formula at a 5% margin of error and proportionally allocated across seven divisions or work units. Data were collected through Likert-scale questionnaires, documentation, and guided observation. The managerial competence, employee discipline, and public service quality instruments obtained Cronbach's Alpha coefficients of 0.946, 0.969, and 0.975, respectively. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, an F-test, and the coefficient of determination with SPSS version 26. The results showed that managerial competence had a positive and significant influence on public service quality (B = 0.308; t = 2.585; p = 0.011). Employee discipline had a positive direction of influence but was not partially significant (B = 0.079; t = 0.713; p = 0.477). Simultaneously, managerial competence and employee discipline significantly influenced public service quality (F = 3.825; p = 0.025), with an R² of 0.062. These findings indicate that improving public service quality requires prioritizing stronger managerial competence while maintaining work discipline within a more integrated service system.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the effect of educational facilities and infrastructure management and teacher professionalism on learning quality at public elementary schools in Suak Tapeh District, Banyuasin Regency. The study employed a quantitative approach with an ex post facto design. The population consisted of 161 teachers, and 100 teachers were selected through proportional probability sampling. Data were collected using Likert-scale questionnaires and documentation. The instruments were valid and reliable, with Cronbach's alpha coefficients of 0.902 for facilities and infrastructure management, 0.906 for teacher professionalism, and 0.891 for learning quality. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, prerequisite tests, simple linear regression, and multiple linear regression with SPSS version 26. Facilities and infrastructure management had a positive and significant effect on learning quality (B = 0.495; t = 4.984; p < 0.001; R² = 20.2%). Teacher professionalism also had a positive and significant effect on learning quality (B = 0.619; t = 7.322; p < 0.001; R² = 35.4%). Simultaneously, both predictors had a positive and significant effect on learning quality (F = 31.751; p < 0.001; R² = 39.6%), with the equation Y = 0.952 + 0.253X₁ + 0.512X₂. These findings contribute empirical evidence that learning quality improves when schools manage educational facilities effectively and sustain teachers' professional development.

Abstract

This study investigates the reality of technology integration in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms at SMA 5 Baraka, Enrekang, Indonesia. Although educational technology has become a central component of contemporary pedagogy, implementation in peripheral and resource-constrained schools often remains inconsistent. The study aimed to explore actual classroom practices, teacher and student perceptions, and contextual barriers affecting sustainable integration. A qualitative case study design was employed. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, student focus-group discussions, and document analysis. Data were analyzed thematically through coding, categorization, and triangulation. The findings indicate that technology integration occurred primarily through smartphones, projectors, WhatsApp, YouTube, and presentation software. Teachers perceived technology as beneficial for increasing motivation, facilitating listening exposure, and improving instructional efficiency. Students expressed positive attitudes toward multimedia-supported learning environments. However, unstable internet connectivity, inadequate devices, limited professional training, time constraints, and inconsistent institutional support restricted deeper pedagogical innovation. Most practices remained at functional levels of substitution and augmentation rather than transformative use. The study concludes that meaningful technology integration requires infrastructure readiness, sustained teacher development, and context-sensitive policy support. These findings contribute empirical insight into digital inequality and pedagogical adaptation in Indonesian EFL settings.

Abstract

This study investigated the influence of English songs on students’ pronunciation skills at UPT SMP Negeri 3 Pangsid. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental pre-test–post-test control-group design was employed. The participants were 27 seventh-grade students, consisting of 15 students in the experimental group and 12 students in the control group. The experimental group received pronunciation instruction through the English children’s song “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star,” whereas the control group was taught through conventional classroom activities. Data were collected using a pronunciation test assessing articulation, word stress, rhythm, and intonation. The data were analyzed through descriptive statistics, Shapiro–Wilk normality testing, Levene’s homogeneity testing, and an independent-samples t-test. The experimental group’s mean score increased from 42.33 in the pre-test to 72.00 in the post-test, while the control group increased only from 51.67 to 53.33. The post-test difference was statistically significant, t(25) = 3.784, p < .001, with a mean difference of 18.667. These findings demonstrate that English songs significantly improve junior high school students’ pronunciation by providing repeated, meaningful, and enjoyable exposure to English sounds and prosodic patterns. English songs are therefore recommended as an engaging instructional medium for pronunciation practice.

Abstract

This study explored students’ perceptions of English learning at SMAN 1 Sidrap and examined how those perceptions shaped their English-speaking confidence. A qualitative descriptive design was employed. Thirteen eleventh-grade students were selected through purposive sampling because they had participated in varied classroom speaking activities and represented different confidence levels. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and classroom observation, supported by a speaking-confidence scale, and were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña: data collection, data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. Trustworthiness was established through credibility, transferability, dependability, and confirmability. The findings showed that most students perceived English as useful for further study, employment, and international communication. Discussions, presentations, role plays, speeches, drama, and group work were viewed as meaningful opportunities to practice English and strengthen confidence. Positive feedback from teachers, peer encouragement, and a non-threatening classroom atmosphere increased students’ willingness to communicate and classroom participation. Nevertheless, anxiety, fear of mistakes, limited vocabulary, and pronunciation difficulties still reduced confidence among some students. The study concludes that positive perceptions of English learning support higher speaking confidence by increasing motivation, lowering the affective filter, and strengthening students’ beliefs in their own ability. Teachers should therefore design interactive, supportive, and progressively challenging speaking activities.

Abstract

This study investigated the implementation and role of collaborative learning in developing students’ writing skills at English House Language Center. A qualitative case study design was employed to obtain an in-depth understanding of classroom practices and students’ experiences during collaborative writing activities. The participants were six eighth-grade students selected through purposive sampling based on their active involvement and varied writing proficiency. Data were collected through non-participant classroom observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation of students’ written work. The data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings revealed that collaborative learning was implemented through small-group discussion, idea sharing, joint sentence and text construction, and peer feedback. These activities encouraged active participation and meaningful interaction throughout the stages of planning, drafting, revising, and editing. Collaboration helped students generate richer ideas, organize texts more systematically, and improve language use, particularly grammar and vocabulary. It also increased motivation, confidence, engagement, and enjoyment, although differences of opinion and unequal participation occasionally required teacher facilitation. The study concludes that collaborative learning is an effective instructional approach for supporting the cognitive, linguistic, affective, and social dimensions of writing development in a non-formal EFL context. Teachers are encouraged to establish clear group roles, provide structured writing tasks, and guide constructive peer feedback.

Abstract

Reading is an ability that everyone must have, reading is also a bridge to new knowledge. In fact, students often struggle with reading such as identifying texts, finding the main topic, extracting information, grasping the overall meaning, and connecting text events to real life. This study aims to explore the implementation of the KWL (Know, Want, Learn) strategy in teaching reading comprehension of narrative texts and student perception in learning reading narrative text at junior high schools in Karawang. The KWL strategy is used to help students understand narrative texts more deeply, with stages that include identifying prior knowledge, learning objectives, and reflecting on the understanding gained. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method to analysed the data found. The participants used in this research amounted to 8 students. besides that, the data collection technique uses 3 ways, namely observation, interview, and documentation. The findings show that the KWL strategy is helping in students organize information and improve their understanding of the text, some students also said that this strategy really helped students and understand the material. However, challenges such as low student interest in reading and limited learning media are obstacles in the implementation process. However, students' perceptions of the KWL strategy are positive, where students feel more actively involved in the learning process and are more motivated to read narrative texts. Therefore, the results show that KWL strategy helps students organize information and improve their understanding of the text. Although this strategy is effective, there are challenges such as students' low reading interest and limited learning media. However, students' perception of KWL strategy remains positive, and helping where they feel more engaged and motivated in the learning process.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the experiences of students in balancing their academic responsibilities with their active involvement in a campus organization, specifically MAPALA UMKT (Mahasiswa Pecinta Alam Universitas Muhammadiyah Kalimantan Timur). As student organizations offer valuable opportunities for personal growth, leadership development, and social engagement, they may also present challenges in managing time and maintaining academic motivation. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study method to understand how students experience, navigate, and reflect on these dual roles. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with selected MAPALA UMKT members from different cohorts, academic levels, and organizational roles. The results revealed that while organizational involvement can become a source of time pressure and academic stress, it also fosters essential skills such as time management, self-discipline, and problem-solving, which in turn contribute positively to academic motivation. Students' ability to maintain balance often depends on their level of self-regulation, social support, and commitment to both domains. This study highlights the complex yet meaningful relationship between organizational engagement and academic life, offering insights for universities, student organizations, and students themselves in building better support systems and fostering holistic student development.

Abstract

In recent years—and even dating back to the 1970s and 1980s—the Indonesian horror film genre has consistently drawn large audiences to theaters. Conceptually, this study examines this phenomenon by employing Max Horkheimer’s theory of rational and irrational dialectics, Jean Baudrillard’s concept of simulacrum, and Textual Analysis applied to horror film posters and narratives from the 1970s to the 2000s, alongside select Asian horror films that resonate with audiences. The rational and irrational dialectic emerges prominently in Indonesian horror films, as viewers grapple with the interplay between reality and the supernatural depicted in posters and narratives that serve as simulacra, ultimately becoming modern myths. Philosophically, this dialectic presents a dilemma where humans navigate rationality and irrationality in attempting to dismiss mythological elements. Simulacrum, in this context, represents a duplication without an original, blurring the line between the copy and the real. Textual Analysis, rooted in media and cultural studies, is employed here as a methodology for examining texts that contain meaningful signs. Most Indonesian horror film posters and narratives feature terrifying creatures without real-world references. As a result, despite a dip in popularity during the 1990s, horror films from the 1970s through the 2000s have frequently achieved high viewership, especially those based on legendary tales familiar to audiences. These recurring themes, perpetuated through film posters and narratives, are further reinforced by makeup, animation techniques, and CGI (Computer Generated Imagery), all of which bring the horror elements to life.
