Abstract

The issue of feminism has been a topic of discussion for many years, transforming several fields, including literature.

One of them is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's A Scandal in Bohemia, which has the feminist character of Irene Adler. Irene Adler is an interesting central character in this classic Sherlock Holmes story. Sherlock Holmes. Known for her intelligence and independence, Adler is feminist in the detective narrative. Irene Adler's character challenges existing ideas about women in literature at the time. The author used a qualitative method with a feminist literary criticism approach based on the theory of modern feminism, which states that everyone has the right to determine their own path of life, regardless of the influence of their environment. After analyzing the story of A Scandal in Bohemia, the author found seven characters of Irene Adler that represent feminist characters, such as strong-willed, assertive, independent, freedom of expression, self-confidence, strategic intelligence, and the ability to challenge and change stereotypes and male views of women. The implication of this research is that readers can gain a better understanding of how feminist characters contribute to the development of plots and themes in certain literary works or media.

Abstract

This study endeavors to explore whether there exists a significant discrepancy in students' speaking proficiency between those instructed with the ELSA Speak application and those without it, among twelfth-grade students at SMAN 6 Kota Serang. Employing a quantitative research approach with a quasi-experimental method, the researcher examined 60 twelfth-grade students from SMAN 6 Kota Serang, comprising 30 students from XII MIPA-6 as the experimental group and another 30 students from XII MIPA-3 as the control group. Data collection methods encompassed observation, pre-tests, treatment, and post-tests. Analysis via t-test yielded revealing results: the mean speaking proficiency score for the experimental group was 76.93, while for the control group it stood at 64.26. Furthermore, the calculated t-value was 8.46, surpassing the critical t-value of 1.67 at a significance level of 5%. This disparity between the obtained t-value and the critical t-value led to the acceptance of the alternative hypothesis (Ha) and the rejection of the null hypothesis (Ho). In essence, the findings suggest a significant disparity in speaking proficiency between the group using the ELSA Speak application and the group without it. Consequently, these results underscore the importance of integrating technology-based language learning tools such as ELSA Speak into educational curricula, as they have demonstrated efficacy in enhancing students' speaking skills and fostering more effective language acquisition.

Abstract

This research aims to reflect on racial discrimination contained in the dialogue of Richard La Gravense's film Freedom Writers (2007). This film tells the story of a white teacher named Erin Gruwell who tries to resolve the racist conflict that occurred among her students at Woodrow Wilson High School in Long Beach, California. The film depicts how "liberating" education can be a beacon amid raging gang clashes that drag many children into a cycle of violence. Based on a true story, Freedom Writers, which debuted for the first time on the big screen in 2007, gives a strong impression of how fundamental the role of education is. This research approach is qualitative description. Data were analyzed based on Fred L. Pincus' theory of types of discrimination and Erving Goffman's theory of stigma. The results of this research conclude that in the dialogue of the film, the characters experience two types of acts of racial discrimination, namely individual discrimination and institutional discrimination. Apart from that, this treatment has an impact on prejudice, resulting in violence between racial groups.
