Abstract

This study aims to systematically examine empirical evidence on the effectiveness of role play in improving EFL students' speaking skills. Using Systematic Literature Review (SLR) methodology guided by the PRISMA framework, this study analyzed 20 peer-reviewed articles obtained from Google Scholar, ERIC, and Scopus databases. Inclusion criteria focused on studies investigating role play as an instructional technique targeting speaking skills in EFL or ESL contexts. Findings reveal that role play consistently and significantly improves key speaking components including fluency, accuracy, pronunciation, vocabulary, and confidence. Additionally, role play reduces speaking anxiety and promotes a more communicative and interactive learning environment. This review also identifies moderating factors such as class size, student proficiency level, and teacher facilitation quality that influence role play effectiveness. These findings suggest that role play is a highly effective pedagogical strategy for improving speaking competence, particularly in EFL contexts, and its systematic integration into curriculum design is strongly recommended.

Abstract

This literature study examines the process of self-regulation in transforming compliance with school rules originating from external pressure into behavioral regularity emerging from personal awareness, and its impact on the effectiveness of student learning outcomes. Using a qualitative approach with content analysis method, this study synthesizes relevant literature to build a theoretical framework on how self-regulation facilitates the internalization of disciplinary values. The findings reveal that self-regulation occurs through a series of interconnected stages including goal setting, strategy planning, self-monitoring, evaluation, and adjustment. The success of this process is determined by internal motivation, appropriate environmental support, positive direct experiences, and healthy emotional management. Strong self-regulation directly impacts learning outcome effectiveness through improved cognitive strategies, strengthened intrinsic motivation, enhanced time and environment management, and developed capacity to constructively cope with failure. Learning outcomes achieved through self-regulation processes are characterized by lasting understanding, knowledge transfer ability, and the formation of lifelong learning dispositions. Schools and teachers play strategic roles in strengthening self-regulation through curriculum design that supports autonomy, formative feedback, role modeling, and collaboration with parents. This study contributes theoretically by positioning self-regulation as the central mechanism bridging external influences and internal disposition formation.

Abstract

English learning at the elementary school level plays an important role in developing students’ early language competence, particularly in listening skills as the foundation for other language abilities. However, many learning processes still rely on conventional teaching methods that do not fully accommodate the developmental characteristics of young learners, resulting in limited engagement and listening comprehension. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the role of storytelling in improving English listening skills among elementary school students and to identify effective implementation strategies in classroom learning. This research employs a library research method by reviewing and analyzing various relevant literature sources, including books, scientific journals, and previous research findings related to storytelling in English language learning. The analysis shows that storytelling contributes significantly to improving students’ listening comprehension, vocabulary acquisition, attention, and learning motivation. Through structured narratives, expressive delivery, and the support of visual media, storytelling creates a contextual and meaningful learning environment that helps students understand spoken English more effectively. The findings also indicate that the effectiveness of storytelling is closely related to the developmental characteristics of elementary school students who learn better through concrete, imaginative, and engaging experiences. Furthermore, the implementation of storytelling through systematic stages pre-listening, while-listening, and post-listening can enhance students participation and comprehension during the learning process. In conclusion, storytelling can be considered an effective instructional strategy for improving English listening skills among elementary school students while also supporting vocabulary development and creating an engaging learning atmosphere.

Abstract

This study examines the integration of religious moderation values in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) and its impact on students’ religious tolerance in public junior high schools in Padangsidimpuan City. The research is based on the need to foster tolerance, mutual respect, and harmonious coexistence among students from diverse religious and social backgrounds. Using a qualitative field research approach, the study was conducted in several public junior high schools. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving principals, PAI teachers, and students. Data analysis followed the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, with validity ensured through triangulation. The findings reveal that religious moderation values have been integrated into the planning, implementation, and evaluation stages of PAI learning. Teachers incorporate key values such as tolerance, justice, moderation, deliberation, equality, and anti-violence into both teaching materials and classroom practices. This integration has led to positive outcomes, including increased mutual respect among students, reduced conflicts, and a more harmonious learning environment. Overall, PAI learning plays a significant role in shaping students’ character, promoting moderate attitudes, and strengthening religious tolerance in a diverse school setting.

Abstract

The swift proliferation of short-video-centric social media, notably TikTok, has revolutionized the educational landscape by facilitating novel methods of knowledge production, dissemination, and interpretation. This phenomenon denotes a transition in media and signifies an epistemological transformation in educational practices within the digital age. This study seeks to analyze the representation and interpretation of knowledge in TikTok educational content using a qualitative methodology grounded in an interpretive case study framework. Data were gathered via digital participant observation, comprehensive interviews, and document analysis involving 12 participants, comprising educational content creators and active TikTok users in higher education settings. Thematic data analysis was performed utilizing a Multimodal Critical Discourse Analysis framework to elucidate the interplay among visual, verbal, and auditory components in the construction of meaning. The results show three main patterns: the conflict between quick understanding and deep knowledge, the importance of emotional multimodal experiences in learning, and the negotiation of knowledge authority in changing digital spaces. These results indicate that learning via TikTok encompasses not only cognitive aspects but also intricate emotional, aesthetic, and social dimensions. This study theoretically enhances multimodal discourse analysis by integrating users' subjective experiences, while practically informing the advancement of critical digital literacy and the design of social media-based learning. Moreover, this study facilitates additional investigation into algorithmic dynamics, digital identity, and the evolution of learning methodologies within platform-centric contexts.

Abstract

A single paragraph, maximum 250 words. Abstract content must contain (1) an overview of the object of research, (2) problems, and research objectives, (3) proposed methods, (4) main findings and results and synthesis of main ideas, and (5) conclusions. In recent years, the Iran–United States conflict has not only unfolded within the geopolitical arena but has also been intensively constructed through international media framing that shapes how global audiences understand this reality. In the context of the digital information overflow, media no longer function merely as conveyors of facts; rather, they act as agents that construct meaning, evoke emotions, and shape the social perceptions of audiences. This study aims to analyze how international media framing constructs representations of the Iran–United States conflict and how audiences interpret such discourse within their social experiences. This research adopts a qualitative approach with a Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) design. Data were collected through document analysis of 25 news articles from both Western and non-Western media, as well as exploratory interviews with nine participants from academic backgrounds. Data analysis was conducted using a thematic approach based on Norman Fairclough’s three-dimensional model. The findings reveal three main patterns: the construction of threat through media language, moral polarization that produces a dichotomy of “us versus them,” and the negotiation of meaning by audiences, which is reflective and not always linear. These findings indicate that audiences are not entirely passive; rather, they actively interpret and, at times, question media framing. Theoretically, this study extends Critical Discourse Analysis by incorporating the dimension of audience experience into the discursive process. Practically, it underscores the importance of critical media literacy in navigating the complexity of global information and opens avenues for further exploration of the relationship between discourse, power, and social experience.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze lexical ambiguity in the Close the Door podcast, hosted by Deddy Corbuzier. The focus of the study includes identifying the types of lexical ambiguity in the form of polysemy and homonymy, analyzing the meaning of ambiguous words or phrases based on the conversational context, and the influence of ambiguity on listeners' comprehension. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with semantic analysis as the theoretical basis. The research data were obtained from conversations in the Close the Door podcast published on Kompas.com. The data collection technique was carried out through listening and note-taking of utterances containing lexical ambiguity. The data were then analyzed by identifying the form of ambiguity, determining its type, and interpreting the meaning based on the context of the utterance. The results show that lexical ambiguity in the podcast appears in the form of polysemy and homonymy, influenced by the use of informal and spontaneous language. This ambiguity can lead to different interpretations for listeners, but the conversational context helps clarify the speaker's intended meaning. This research is expected to contribute to the development of semantic studies, particularly regarding lexical ambiguity in spoken-word digital communication media.

Abstract

This literature review examines the integration of game-based learning into national curriculum frameworks and its impact on student learning motivation. Synthesizing peer-reviewed studies published between 2020 and 2026 from Google Scholar, the review employs a thematic narrative approach to analyze pedagogical alignment, motivational mechanisms, and implementation barriers. Findings indicate that game-based learning significantly enhances intrinsic motivation when game mechanics are explicitly mapped to curriculum competencies, differentiated instruction, and formative assessment. Its effectiveness is mediated by teacher facilitation, structured reflective debriefs, and institutional support, whereas ad hoc implementation often yields superficial engagement or extrinsic reward dependency. Key challenges include uneven digital infrastructure, limited pedagogical training, and misalignment between rigid assessment systems and flexible learning pathways. The review concludes that sustainable motivational gains occur only when game-based strategies are systematically embedded within competency-driven curricular designs. These insights guide policy recommendations for curriculum reform, targeted professional development, and equitable technology access. Future research should prioritize longitudinal designs to validate motivational trajectories across diverse educational contexts.
