Abstract

TK Darussalam Sidowayah Beji faces challenges in the language proficiency of children, as some still use local languages such as Javanese and Madurese, affecting their language skills during learning. Despite employing various media to enhance the language skills of 4-5-year-old children, research indicates that these media are seldom utilized by teachers, resulting in inadequate language development. This study aims to improve the language proficiency of 4-5-year-old children using the Flip Chart media at TK Darussalam Sidowayah Beji. The research employs Action Research (PTK) with data collection techniques such as observation, interviews, and documentation. The study includes 21 subjects, comprising 12 boys and 9 girls. Results from three cycles show progress: the first cycle achieved 24.00%, engaging children to identify images and text on the Flip Chart; the second cycle reached 33.00%, challenging children to complete sentences with vowels related to the written text beneath engaging images; and the third cycle achieved 95.00%, involving children in mimicking or role-playing based on the images presented on the Flip Chart. The Flip Chart not only enhances language but also makes learning enjoyable for 4-5-year-olds.

Abstract

This research examines gender resistance in the film Enola Holmes through Sara Mills' critical discourse approach. The study focuses on how the film's narrative challenges gender stereotypes by portraying a strong, independent female lead in an adventure story that defies typical gender expectations in popular media. Using a qualitative descriptive method, the study applies Mills' framework to analyze language and narrative elements that shape Enola’s character. Concepts like subject positioning, objectification, and audience reception are explored to demonstrate how Enola challenges traditional gender roles. The analysis reveals implicit critiques of gender inequality, especially in political and social contexts within the film’s narrative. Enola’s portrayal as an active agent of change, intelligence, and empowerment is central, encouraging viewers to reconsider traditional gender roles and advocate for equality. Her journey of self-understanding prompts viewers to reevaluate their own perceptions of gender roles. These findings highlight the film’s role in promoting gender equality and social change, offering insights into how such narratives can influence societal perceptions. This study expands discussions on gender representation in media, emphasizing the significance of empowering female characters in reshaping cultural conversations around gender roles and empowerment.

Abstract

Reflective practice is vital in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) education, facilitating transformative teaching and learning. This study addresses the research gap by exploring the types of reflective practices commonly used by eleven tertiary EFL teachers. The present study aims to investigate the types of reflective practice frequently employed by tertiary EFL teachers to enhance their professional development. Data collection involved a qualitative approach using questionnaires and semi-structured interviews with participants from a private university in Salatiga. The study identified a strong commitment to reflective practice among the participants, engaging in reflection-in-action, reflection-on-action, and reflection-for-action. Assessing students' attitudes, tailoring education to meet the individual needs of students, analyzing previous experiences for valuable insights and alternative approaches, and engaging in self-reflection to address instructional challenges are included in the three primary types of reflection. This study highlights the significance of reflective practices in nurturing teachers' professional growth and emphasizes the potential for ongoing improvement through self-awareness and self-assessment. Future research can further explore additional reflective teaching types and develop strategies to promote reflective practices among teachers.

Abstract

Traditional Bantengan art is not only a rich cultural heritage laden with meanings and symbolism but also reflects the richness and complexity of society. This research aims to explore the functions, symbolic meanings, moral significance, and existence of traditional Bantengan art through the lens of cultural semiotics. Through the cultural semiotics approach, various elements such as gestures, music, and visual symbols in Bantengan performances are dissected to understand the complexity and diversity of meanings created. Furthermore, this research explores the adaptation and evolution of Bantengan art in the context of social, political, and economic dynamics in the era of globalization. This is a qualitative study, with data focusing on functions, symbolic meanings, moral significance, and existence, sourced from traditional Bantengan art. The method used to collect data is the participatory observation method. Researchers observe traditional Bantengan performances through recording and note-taking techniques. Additionally, interviews are conducted with religious figures, elders, artists, cultural experts, and the communities of Mojokerto and Malang, along with document analysis. After data collection, the researcher reduces and classifies the data by type. Subsequently, the researcher verifies and codes the data according to its type. The interpreted data is then presented in tables. The results of the research indicate that traditional Bantengan art encompasses various functions, symbolic meanings, and moral messages reflecting the spirit of courage, solidarity, and sacrifice of the community during the resistance against the Dutch colonialists. Nevertheless, the existence of Bantengan art in the cities of Malang and Mojokerto remains enduring, signifying its value and continuity within local culture
