Abstract

Digul was an internment camp built to exile those who were considered involved or sympathetic to the 1926-1927 rebellion. Those who became victims can be called homo sacer because they were arrested and exiled without going through a court process. The events in the exile to Digul were later immortalized into literary works in the form of prose, and in 2001, collected and edited by Pramoedya Ananta Toer into a book entitled Cerita dari Digul. This research aims to analyze how the Dutch East Indies government produced homo sacer in the book Cerita dari Digul. This research uses a qualitative method. The data collection technique is carried out using the literature study method, namely by careful and thorough reading of the material object. The data that has been collected will then be analyzed using Giorgio Agamben's Homo Sacer Theory. The conclusion of the research is: in Cerita from Digul, the Dutch East Indies Government produced homo sacer using a condition commonly referred to as state-of-exception. That is, a kind of state of emergency or critical situation, which in the name of this critical situation, the state in the name of safeguarding rights, then deprives rights. Those who were arrested, transported and exiled to Digul were not people who were considered dangerous, let alone had committed dangerous acts. They were arrested and exiled only because they had entered associations that were deemed dangerous to the public peace.

This study investigates how Banks's longings for identity, connection, and a sense of belonging are shaped by nostalgia. This article advances our knowledge of the complex interplay between memories, trauma, and the search for identity in Ishiguro's "When We Were Orphans" by highlighting the story's investigation of these topics.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the impact of educational TikTok videos on Grade 11 students’ learning of grammar via a pretest-posttest experiment. While previous studies have been able to demonstrate the effectiveness of TikTok in increasing student engagement, there still exists little evidence indicating the effectiveness of TikTok on actual learner performance through formal graded assessments. This study is one of the first attempts to investigate the effects of TikTok as a learning tool on learner performance through a controlled experiment. Sixty-seven (67) Grade 11 students from St. Dominic College of Asia who are low-performing in English represent the population. A one-group pretest posttest experiment was used as the data collection method. In the experiment, the participants’ English subject teacher administered (via Google Meet) an online grammar test (via Google Forms) before and after exposing them to a selection of ten (10) educational TikTok videos by Filipino educational content creators. Moreover, qualitative and quantitative analysis (paired samples t-test) were used as data analysis methods. Overall, the evidence from this study indicates positive feedback as most of the students preferred this new method as compared to the traditional mind-map due to its novelty as well as the interesting features. Apart from that, the use of TikTok by familiar social media influencers demonstrates its effectiveness as a learning tool since the more students feel connected to someone, the more that they trust the person and adhere to the information given, so it signifies a better learning experience. Despite the small sample size and its exploratory nature, this study offers some insight into the possibility of integrating social media into language education. However, further work is needed to assess the application of this method with other language components such as reading, writing, pronunciation, and vocabulary enrichment.

Abstract

This paper investigates how the body is objectified in Samiya At’ut’s flash fiction entitled That Summer Holiday. The story tells about the painful transition from childhood to adulthood especially in women. This idea is mostly being supported by McKinley and Hyde’s research in Objectified Body Consciousness Scale (OBCS). It is said that the objectifying of the body includes surveillance, body shame, and appearance control beliefs. Through qualitative method and explorative approach, the analysis of this paper includes how the girl has to face her body being objectified by her parents and surroundings. Living in religious circumstances, she is dictated on how to wear anything for her everyday life. In conclusion, it is clear that At’ut’s story underlines matters of how body is not belong to someone autonomously since it is always socially constructed.

Abstract

Class size has a significant impact on the reading comprehension of young learners. Research suggests that smaller classes can improve academic performance, including reading comprehension, by increasing student participation and individual progress. This study investigates the relationship between class size and students' achievement in English reading comprehension among Year 4 students. A quasi-experimental research design was employed, involving a mixed-methods approach incorporating quantitative and qualitative data collection methods. The results suggested that smaller class sizes have a positive impact on student's achievement in English reading comprehension compared to larger class sizes. The results of the study align with previous research, suggesting that smaller class sizes lead to better student performance. The findings of this study have implications for policy-making and educational practice, highlighting the importance of considering class size as a factor in promoting students' academic achievement.
