Abstract

This study examines the application of Islamic criminal law principles in addressing drug-related offenses committed by minors through a critical discourse analysis of Palopo District Court Decision Number 47/Pid.Sus.Anak/2016/PN.PLP. The research explores the intersection between Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) and Indonesia's contemporary juvenile justice system, particularly focusing on how Islamic legal principles are interpreted and applied in cases involving child offenders in drug-related crimes. The analysis reveals tensions between traditional Islamic criminal law approaches and modern restorative justice principles embodied in Indonesia's Law No. 11 of 2012 on the Juvenile Criminal Justice System. While Islamic law emphasizes the concept of ta'zir (discretionary punishment) and consideration of the offender's circumstances, Indonesian juvenile justice prioritizes rehabilitation, diversion mechanisms, and the child's best interests. The study demonstrates how judicial decisions attempt to reconcile these different legal frameworks, often favoring rehabilitative measures over punitive sanctions.  The research employs critical discourse analysis methodology to examine legal language, judicial reasoning, and ideological underpinnings in the court decision. Findings indicate that judges navigate between Islamic legal principles—such as the consideration of mental capacity (ahliyyah) and the protective nature of Sharia toward minors—and secular legal requirements emphasizing restorative justice. The decision reflects Indonesia's pluralistic legal system, where Islamic law influences judicial interpretation while operating within the framework of national criminal law. The study concludes that contemporary Indonesian courts demonstrate flexibility in applying Islamic criminal law principles to juvenile drug cases, prioritizing rehabilitation and child protection over strict punitive measures. This approach aligns with both Islamic jurisprudential concepts of mercy (rahmah) and modern international standards for juvenile justice, suggesting a harmonious integration of religious and secular legal principles in addressing youth criminality.

Abstract

This study analyzes the use of lexical cohesion in spoken discourse, particularly within the digital sports media context of CBS Sports Golazo’s UCL Today Moments playlist. Lexical cohesion, as defined by Cutting (2005), encompasses devices such as repetition, synonymy, superordinate terms, and general words, which contribute to the coherence and clarity of spoken interaction. Utilizing a descriptive qualitative method, this research analyzed five episodes from the playlist, totaling approximately 45 minutes of conversational data. The findings reveal that repetition is the most frequently used cohesion device (37%), followed by general words (25.9%), synonyms (24.1%), and superordinate terms (13%). These patterns highlight how speakers naturally employ lexical cohesion to emphasize meaning, avoid redundancy, and maintain discourse continuity in informal, spontaneous settings. The study also underscores the functional significance of lexical cohesion in managing the flow and coherence of talk show interactions. By focusing on two-way digital conversations, this research fills a gap in previous studies that primarily addressed one-directional or written discourse, offering new insights into how lexical cohesion operates in real-time, dialogic communication.

Abstract

This research investigates the effectiveness of the monologue technique in enhancing the speaking skills of tenth-grade students at Senior High School. The study employs a quasi-experimental design, involving pre-test and post-test assessments administered to two groups of students. The experimental group was taught using the monologue technique, while the control group continued with the traditional instructional methods. By comparing the results of both groups, the research aims to identify whether the monologue technique can significantly improve students' speaking abilities. The data were analyzed using a series of statistical tests, most notably the T-test. The results indicated that the experimental group demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in their speaking performance, in contrast to the control group. Specifically, students in the experimental group showed noticeable progress in terms of fluency and accuracy when speaking in English. This improvement was accompanied by increased levels of confidence and engagement during oral communication activities. The findings of this study suggest that the monologue technique is an effective instructional strategy for improving speaking skills in English. It helps students become more articulate and confident in their language use, making it a valuable addition to English language teaching practices in secondary schools.

Abstract

On social media, humour is frequently used to comment on current affairs. The purpose of this study was to identify the different kinds and purposes of humour utilized on TikTok about the KPPS phenomenon's virality. The researcher gathered 30 TikTok videos as data using the descriptive qualitative research method, and the study's two primary findings are as follows. First, the study identified five types of humour, with satire being the most prevalent (50%) among them. These categories include satire, irony, sarcasm, puns, and tall tales. Second, certain kinds of humour were employed for several reasons, including identification, differentiation, enforcement, and explanation. Additionally, a relationship between the kinds of humor and its purposes on TikTok was found. It implies that the speakers preferred specific kinds of humour for different reasons. Additionally, the speakers praised KPPS members above other culturally presumed acceptable occupations in Indonesia and denounced unethical actions by dishonest state officials or civil workers using a range of humour types and purposes. The popularity of the KPPS phenomenon and TikTok provides individuals with a safe and creative forum to voice their opinions while also raising awareness of the various social issues affecting their community.

Abstract

The indigenous communities, including the Dayak Kanayatn, face significant challenges in preserving their language and culture amidst rapid modernization. The traditional Dayak Kanayatn songs are crucial in preserving their culture, as the lyrics contain valuable vocabulary, history, myths, and moral lessons. This study adopts a qualitative descriptive approach, utilizing Charles Sanders Peirce's cultural semiotics theory to analyze the signs, referents, and interpretants within the lyrics of nine Dayak Kanayatn songs to uncover their cultural values. The analytical methods employed include transcription of the lyrics, structural and semantic analysis of sentences, identification of cultural symbols, and evaluation of the objects referenced in the lyrics. The meanings derived from the analysis are examined to understand cultural and environmental resilience, and conclusions are drawn based on these findings. The traditional Dayak Kanayatn songs reflect cultural symbols that depict agrarian life, harmony with nature, skills, hard work, well-being, and gratitude. Additionally, these songs also reflect social solidarity, community identity, as well as the life cycle and belief in the universe.

Abstract

The primary purpose of this study was to explore the application of Quizizz as a formative assessment tool in teaching reading comprehension in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms. This study examines high school students’ perceptions of quizzes as a formative assessment tool for reading comprehension within EFL contexts. It focuses on increasing digital-based learning engagement among high school students. Using a quantitative research design, this study surveyed 58 eleventh-grade students from SMA PGRI 2 Bandung who had experience using Quizizz in reading activities. Data were collected through a validated 27-item questionnaire using a 5-point Likert scale (Cronbach's Alpha = 0.898). The results revealed that the average student response was in the "High" category (M = 3.43), indicating positive perceptions across aspects such as interactivity, gamification, feedback effectiveness, and ease of use. However, some students reported challenges, including time pressure and technical limitations. This study suggests quizzes can be an effective tool for formative assessment of reading comprehension, especially when integrated with supporting instruction. The broader implications emphasize the importance of digital literacy among teachers and the need for infrastructure to support gamified assessment in EFL learning.
