The Indonesian film industry has shown significant development in recent years, particularly in terms of genre diversification and technical quality. One major achievement in this sector is the success of the animated film JUMBO (2025), which became the third highest-grossing Indonesian film of all time, with over 7 million viewers. This success reflects a major shift in Indonesian audience preferences toward local animated films, which were previously often considered less popular. JUMBO not only offers entertainment but also presents a strong and emotional narrative, along with relevant Indonesian social and cultural values. This study aims to examine JUMBO as a manifestation of a new paradigm in Indonesian cinema, focusing on its narrative approach, technical and visual aspects, as well as the digital communication strategies used to market the film. In addition, audience responses to the film are analyzed to understand its impact on public perception of local animated films. The research uses a qualitative approach, including content analysis of the film and a study of social media use in its marketing strategy. JUMBO not only provides visual entertainment but also conveys universal values such as struggle, family, and hope, making it both relevant and emotionally resonant for viewers. The findings show that JUMBO has successfully reshaped audience expectations regarding the quality of local films and opened new opportunities for the development of the animation genre in Indonesia. The film’s success highlights the great potential for the Indonesian animated film industry to grow further and be embraced by both local and international audiences.

This study investigates the potential of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) as an approach for improving English language proficiency among high school students in Bener Meriah, Aceh, Indonesia. Leveraging the local identity and reputation of Bener Meriah as a leading coffee producer region, this study proposed a coffee-themed curriculum to be integrated in English learning with culturally relevant content. A systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines to explore the implementation of CLIL in high school EFL contexts. Using Google Scholar, an initial boolean search identified 87 articles published between 2020 and 2024. Through inclusion and exclusion criteria, 12 relevant studies were selected for final analysis. The findings reveal that (i) CLIL promotes language acquisition, contextual learning, and student motivation. However, (ii) challenges such as resource constraints, teacher training needs, and implementation costs must be addressed. Based on these findings, this article offers recommendations for CLIL integration and highlights its implications for education and economic development in EFL contexts, particularly Bener Meriah, where coffee farming is a primary source of livelihood.

This study aims to explore students' perceptions of the effectiveness of using Duolingo as a foreign language learning platform for first semester English education students. The researcher identified the extent to which Duolingo app is effective in assisting foreign language learning and evaluated how effective the app is in assisting students in foreign language learning. A descriptive qualitative approach was used, and data were collected through observation, questionnaires, and interviews with second-semester students of the English Education Study Program at Universitas Muhammadiyah Sidenreng Rappang. The findings show that most students have a positive perception of Duolingo. They found the app easy to use, interesting, and helpful in understanding and memorizing vocabulary. Features such as repetition, daily reminders, and interactive design were found to increase learning motivation and student engagement. However, Duolingo's effectiveness in a structured classroom setting was considered neutral due to limitations in its integration into formal teaching methods. Overall, Duolingo is considered an effective tool for self-directed English vocabulary learning.

This study aims to analyze and compare the English learning needs from the perspectives of students and teachers at SMKN 1 Dampal Selatan, MA Al-Ittihad DDI Soni, and SMA Negeri 1 Dampal Selatan. The research employs a qualitative descriptive approach using data collected through questionnaires distributed to students and interviews conducted with English teachers. The focus of this study includes academic needs such as mastery of the four main English skills, and non-academic needs like motivation, environmental support, and self-confidence, as well as perceptions regarding the use of technology in learning. The results indicate a significant gap between students’ and teachers’ expectations. Students tend to prefer practical, technology-based, and work-oriented materials, while teachers emphasize grammar mastery, basic language skills, and the need for adequate learning media. Additionally, students expressed difficulties in vocabulary acquisition and low confidence in speaking, whereas teachers stressed the importance of enhancing motivation and learning facilities. These findings highlight the necessity to adjust curricula and teaching methods to better align with students’ real-world needs and support more effective English learning.

Data were collected through direct dialog with students with recording and note-taking techniques through observation during the learning process.

The integration of communication processes occurs when conventional and digital communication patterns are used simultaneously, allowing communication activities to take place both face-to-face and through mediated channels. This condition has become increasingly relevant as the need for health information grows more dynamic and is obtained from diverse sources. This study aims to analyze the direct effect of information sources on learning factors and the effectiveness of health communication, the direct effect of learning factors on the effectiveness of health communication, and the indirect effect of information sources on the effectiveness of health communication through learning factors. The main concepts examined in this study include information sources, learning factors, and health communication effectiveness. This research employed an explanatory quantitative approach involving 97 students from Grade X and XI at SMA Sejahtera 1 Depok City. Data were collected through a survey using a Google Form questionnaire and analyzed using multivariate analysis. The results indicate that information sources have a direct and significant effect on both learning factors and the effectiveness of health communication. Learning factors also have a direct and significant effect on the effectiveness of health communication. However, learning factors do not mediate the relationship between information sources and health communication effectiveness. Future studies are recommended to involve a larger sample size and adopt a mixed-methods approach to allow for comparative analysis, such as multi-group analysis.
