Abstract

Conjunctions are crucial cohesive devices that help establish connections between propositions. It is an integral part of language use, especially in literature. One prominent use of conjunctions in conveying narrative relationships can be seen in the Novel, “November 9”, by Colleen Hoover. This study focuses on causal conjunctions and investigates the types and functions of causal conjunctions in the novel “November 9.” The research employs a library research and qualitative methodology to explore the existing pieces of literature comprehensively. The analysis identifies four distinct causal conjunctions within the Novel. “so” signifies general causal relations, establishing cause-and-effect links between actions or events. It also introduces specific causal relations, elucidating consequences following a preceding statement. “then” represents conditional relations, altering the polarity between positive and negative statements. “because” conveys general respective relations, offering reasons for prior statements. Each causal conjunction uniquely conveys cause-and-effect relationships, consequences, explanations, and reasons throughout the narrative. The study enriches the understanding of causality and conjunctions in literature, shedding light on how they shape logical and cogent sentences. This study is a valuable resource for academics exploring the intricate relationship between causality and conjunctions in “November 9.” By unveiling the nuanced functions of causal conjunctions, it encourages further research into broader implications of conjunction usage in literary works. Ultimately, it underscores the significance of conjunctions in crafting coherent and impactful narratives.

Abstract

This study explores the transformative impact of a dynamic Question and Answer (Q&A) method on students' higher-order thinking skills. In an era where rote memorization dominates traditional classrooms, this research investigates an innovative pedagogical approach designed to foster critical thinking, problem-solving, and analytical abilities among students. The study employs a mixed-methods research design, integrating qualitative and quantitative analyses to measure the effectiveness of the Q&A method. This research dissects the impact of the Q&A method on cognitive development. It delves into the theoretical foundations of higher-order thinking skills and examines how the interactive nature of the Q&A process stimulates intellectual curiosity. By intertwining challenging questions with collaborative problem-solving activities, educators are empowered to foster an environment where students not only learn but also think critically and creatively. The research results indicate that there are four questioning methods, namely narrative questioning, guessing objects answering method, questioning through body movements, and argumentative questioning. Preliminary findings hint at a positive correlation between the implementation of the Q&A method and significant strides in students' critical thinking abilities. This research goes beyond the conventional boundaries of academia, offering a transformative pedagogical approach that equips students with skills crucial for navigating the complexities of the modern world. By cultivating higher-order thinking skills, this study strives to empower students not only as knowledgeable individuals but as adaptable and innovative thinkers prepared to meet the challenges of the future head-on.
