<![CDATA[Objective: This qualitative descriptive study aims to describe the process and impact of implementing a structured and aesthetic note-taking strategy to optimize students' motivation to learn science. Learning motivation is a crucial factor that often declines due to monotonous learning methods. Method: This study focuses on the experiences of eighth-grade students at SMPN 1 Purwakarta in adopting more organized and visually appealing note-taking habits. Data collection was conducted through three methods: participatory classroom observation, document analysis of student notebooks, and in-depth interviews with 15 students selected through purposive sampling. The collected data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive analysis model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. Results: The results show that students who implemented a structured and aesthetic note-taking strategy demonstrated positive changes in learning behavior. They became more active in processing information, rather than simply copying. Analysis of the notes revealed the use of information hierarchies, color coding, and simple diagrams that helped clarify complex science concepts. Interviews revealed that this strategy increased student interest because the note-taking process became more creative and personal. Students feel more confident and motivated to revisit their notes, which ultimately increases their persistence and engagement in science learning. Novelty: This study highlights the potential of structured and aesthetically enhanced note-taking strategies in improving student motivation and engagement in science, offering a creative and personalized approach to traditional note-taking methods.]]>

<![CDATA[Objective: This study aims to conduct a comparative analysis of Physics materials and assessment formats between the Independent Curriculum Phase F (Indonesia) and the Cambridge International A-Level Physics (9702). Method: A qualitative content analysis was employed to examine curriculum documents and official guidelines from both educational systems. Results: The findings reveal that both curricula follow a similar structural framework consisting of planning, implementation, and evaluation stages. While the topics covered in both curricula show substantial overlap, distinctive features were identified. The Independent Curriculum emphasizes a contextualized learning approach rooted in local wisdom, whereas the Cambridge Curriculum prioritizes critical thinking and global competencies. A notable divergence lies in their assessment models: the Independent Curriculum incorporates authentic, project-based, and portfolio assessments, while the Cambridge Curriculum adopts paper-based examinations aligned with international standards. Novelty: This study offers a unique insight into how culturally contextual and globally standardized physics curricula can be contrasted and potentially integrated to foster an adaptive, high-quality learning experience that meets both national and international benchmarks.]]>

<![CDATA[Objective: This paper is based on ethics theory, focusing on Kantian deontological ethics and Utilitarianism, attempting to study the moral ambiguous problems in when machines like me by Ian McEwan. The book raises profound ethical issues about artificial intelligence, human responsibility, and truth. Method: Machines Like Me revolves around a love triangle between a man, a woman and a robot. Reflecting on criteria for differentiating between machines and humans one relatively obvious distinction, which Mills' Machines Like Me prompts, is that between a moral quality of artificial intelligence (AI) and one of human intelligence. Artificial intelligence systems might be queried about whether they might be willing to perform specific tasks. Results: In the analogue of such robots as might today be constructible to answer such questions, and steeped in an ethical world. The ethical analogue for such robots also involves the so-called critical mind process and theory chains behind AIs giving rise to behaviour prototyped and expressed by non-violent method. Novelty: On the practical implementation plane, the question is worked on of the arguments of ethical nature: Reading of a mode of possible state of machine minds have facilitated the cybernetic vision of human minds and then enabled cybernetic Turing mind theory to work forward.]]>

<![CDATA[Objective: In this article written about the intersection of realism and naturalism in Thomas Hardy’s Tess of the d’Urbervilles and Theodore Dreiser’s Sister Carrie. Both novels, though rooted in distinct literary traditions, reveal overlapping aesthetic and thematic concerns, particularly in their treatment of women’s struggles within oppressive social structures. Method: The study draws upon literary criticism, historical context, and narrative analysis to demonstrate how Hardy and Dreiser utilize their respective narrative strategies to reflect the deterministic forces of society while simultaneously allowing for moments of personal agency. Result: Hardy’s lyrical realism intertwines with the fatalistic tone of naturalism, whereas Dreiser’s journalistic detachment reflects a raw, unembellished portrayal of urban life. Novelty: Through comparative analysis, the article highlights how both authors capture the socio-economic pressures, gender roles, and moral constraints of their eras.]]>

<![CDATA[Objective: This article explores Bernardino Evaristo’s girl, woman, and other as a literary statement of intersectional feminism. It focuses on the polyphonic structure used by the novelist and how challenges monolithic exemplification of womanhood. Despite of receiving considerable critical acclaim for its variety, less interest has been given by scholars to the interplay between feminist politics and narrative form. Method: This article deals with that gap by analyzing how the multiplicity of voices through the novel presents complicated intersection of class, generational history, sexuality and race, especially within the framework of black British women’s competences and experiences. The research utilizes close textual analysis of the twelve correlated narratives to examine how the writer creates her feminist version; that is totally based on Kimberle Crenshaw’s theory of intersectionality as well as the concept of polyphony by Mikhail Bakhtin. Results: The outcomes suggest that stylistic choice functions as less than polyphony. It becomes a way to intensify marginalized perspectives stand against the patriarchal and cultural elimination. Novelty: This study helps to show how formal novelty in literature can draw political and cultural critique.]]>
