Abstract

This study examines the use of speech acts by Prabowo Subianto in his interview at the 2024 Qatar Economic Forum and explains how his language reflects Indonesia’s global economic strategy. It focuses on identifying and categorizing the speech acts used by Prabowo, focusing on locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary aspects to understand how his communication influences both domestic and international audiences. The study employs a qualitative approach, analyzing the interview transcript of Prabowo Subianto using Searle’s theory of speech acts and Austin’s framework for a deeper interpretation. The results reveal that Prabowo predominantly uses assertive (66%), expressive (14%), and commissive (16%) speech acts, projecting confidence and commitment to Indonesia’s economic growth. While directive acts (4%) were less frequent, they were strategically used to challenge critics and reinforce his legitimacy. The findings highlight the significant role of language in shaping perceptions of a country’s economic vision on the global stage. This study underscores the significance of speech acts in shaping political discourse and offers insights into the strategic deployment of language by political leaders in international forums.

Abstract

This study explores the sociolinguistic phenomenon of language variation among Indonesian teenagers influenced by the online multiplayer game Mobile Legends: Bang Bang. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through participant observation and surveys involving 15 teenagers aged 15–25 from Pamekasan, East Java. Guided by Labov’s Variationist Sociolinguistics theory, the research investigates three core issues: (1) the types of language variations that emerge within the Mobile Legends community, (2) the influence of the game on teenagers’ linguistic behavior, and (3) the impact of these variations on their social interactions. Findings reveal that Mobile Legends creates a distinctive linguistic environment characterized by gaming-specific jargon, slang, code-switching, and situational register shifts. These linguistic features reflect a hybrid style shaped by both global digital language and local vernacular practices. Importantly, this language extends beyond the gaming context, permeating daily conversations among peer groups. The use of in-game language serves not only for strategic communication but also as a marker of group identity and belonging. However, the study also identifies potential concerns, such as the normalization of vulgar language and a decline in formal communication norms. Additionally, linguistic variation in gaming contexts contributes to the formation of social hierarchies, reinforces group solidarity, and can lead to exclusionary practices toward non-gamers. These findings highlight the need for educational stakeholders to consider the impact of digital culture on adolescent language development, particularly within the Indonesian context.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between students’ socioeconomic status (SES) and their use of language learning strategies (LLSs) within an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context. Using Oxford’s (1990) taxonomy of language learning strategies as a framework, the study involved 46 sixth-semester students majoring in hospital administration enrolled in an Intensive English Class. Employing a quantitative research design, data were collected through a modified and translated version of the Strategy Inventory for Language Learning (SILL) questionnaire. The data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS), with the Pearson correlation test applied to determine the relationship between SES and LLS use. The results showed no statistically significant correlation between socioeconomic status and language learning strategies, indicating that students from different SES backgrounds use strategies with similar frequency and types. These findings suggest that language learning strategies are likely influenced more by internal learner factors—such as motivation, cognitive preferences, or instructional context—than by socioeconomic status. The study highlights the importance of providing equitable language learning support and recommends further research into possible mediating variables that may affect strategic learning behavior.

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Chatbots are computer programs designed to simulate human conversation and offer interactive, personalized learning experiences. This quantitative study investigated the effectiveness of an AI Chatbot (implemented using the website platform https://www.aichatting.net) in improving students' vocabulary mastery at SMP Negeri 01 Dapurang Pasangkayu, Indonesia. The study employed a quasi-experimental design, comparing an experimental class (8B, n = 25) that utilized the AI Chatbot with a control class (8B, n = 25) that employed a conventional teaching method. The intervention was conducted over six sessions across three weeks, from April 26 to May 19, 2025. Students completed pre-tests and post-tests to assess vocabulary mastery. The experimental class mean score increased from 31.60 to 76.00 (gain = 44.40; Cohen’s d = 4.71), while the control class improved from 32.00 to 46.00 (gain = 14.00; Cohen’s d = 1.43). An independent samples t-test on post-test scores revealed a statistically significant difference between the classes, t (48) = 12.42, p < .0001, with a 95% confidence interval of \ [25.27, 34.73]. These results confirm that the AI chatbot had a substantial impact on vocabulary mastery in practice. While the study supports the potential of AI chatbots as effective vocabulary-learning tools in junior high school settings, it also acknowledges the limitations of the quasi-experimental design and recommends further research using randomized controlled trials.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Superlingo application in enhancing junior high school students' English pronunciation skills. Pronunciation mastery is a crucial aspect of English language learning, yet it often poses challenges for students due to limited practice time and conventional teaching methods. This research employed a mixed-methods approach, combining a quantitative experimental design (pre-test and post-test) with a qualitative phenomenological approach through in-depth interviews. A total of 30 eighth-grade students were selected and divided into two groups: an experimental group using the Superlingo application and a control group applying traditional learning methods. The quantitative results revealed that the experimental group showed a significant average score improvement of 7.2 points (from 18.4 to 25.6), while the control group improved by only 2.2 points (from 18.1 to 20.3). A paired sample t-test confirmed the statistical significance of the improvement (p < 0.05). Meanwhile, qualitative findings indicated that features such as AI-powered speech recognition, gamification, and interactive exercises boosted students' learning motivation and confidence in speaking English. However, challenges such as internet connectivity and occasional AI misjudgment of pronunciation accuracy were also reported. These findings suggest that integrating AI-based applications like Superlingo into the curriculum can significantly enhance pronunciation learning. This study contributes to the development of modern, adaptive, and student-centered digital learning strategies.

Abstract

The phenomenon of code mixing and code switching takes place in bilingual or multilingual societies. These phenomena occur not only in direct communication but also virtually on social media platforms, such as YouTube. This study was grounded in the theoretical frameworks of Hoffman (1991), who identifies three distinct types of code mixing: intra-sentential code mixing, intra-lexical code mixing, and code-mixing involving pronunciation change. Meanwhile, types of code switching are classified into tag switching, intra-sentential code switching, and inter-sentential code switching (Wei, 2007). This study analyzed the types of code mixing and switching used in one of Maudy Ayunda's YouTube Channel videos entitled "How I manage Stress – Maudy Ayunda," published on October 21, 2020, with a duration of 10 minutes and 44 seconds. It analyzed the qualitative content of one of Maudy Ayunda's YouTube videos. Data were collected by selecting and watching the video, transcribing it, identifying code mixing and code switching within the video, and re-checking the video. Then, the data were analyzed using Miles and Huberman's theory (2014) through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion. The study's findings revealed that code mixing and code switching were present in Maudy Ayunda's video, where 14 expressions were categorized as code mixing and 12 as code switching. The types of code mixing found in the video were intra-sentential and intra-lexical code mixing. Meanwhile, the kinds of code switching observed in the video included intra-sentential, inter-sentential, and tag switching. This study contributed to understanding how code mixing and code switching occur on social media platforms like YouTube by highlighting the different types of people commonly used in online communication. Future research is encouraged to include more videos or speakers to provide richer and more comprehensive data, as the current study is limited to a single video from a single public figure.

Abstract

This article analyzes the influence of the principal's leadership on improving literacy and numeracy achievements at Junior High School, using Education Report data from 2022 to 2025. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach with document analysis and interviews involving 10 teachers and the school principal, the study examines how leadership practices affect student learning outcomes. The findings reveal a substantial increase in literacy achievement from 51.11% in 2022 to 86.67% in 2025, and in numeracy from 31.11% to 74.42% over the same period. This progress is attributed to the principal’s strategic focus on data-based learning, consistent academic supervision, and teacher empowerment. By systematically analyzing educational data, the principal identifies learning gaps and implements targeted interventions. Academic supervision sessions enhance pedagogical practices, while structured professional development fosters teacher innovation. Furthermore, the principal cultivates a collaborative culture where teachers share best practices and engage in continuous training. These results highlight the principal's role as a change agent who fosters a supportive and high-achieving school environment. The study underscores the importance of effective leadership in strengthening educational quality, particularly in literacy and numeracy. It recommends that school leaders adopt evidence-based strategies and prioritize teacher development to drive sustainable learning improvements.

Abstract

This study investigates the critical role of English proficiency in career advancement and business growth, focusing on the characteristics of an ideal Business English course. The research employs a qualitative approach, using interviews and focus group discussions with seven employees from various industries to gather insights. Findings reveal a preference for small classroom settings (3-5 people) where instruction is delivered entirely in English. Participants believe that such settings provide personalized attention and foster interactive learning experiences, which are more effective for mastering the language. However, several challenges were identified, including low self-esteem, mockery from peers, and a lack of learning partners. Low self-esteem and fear of ridicule discourage active participation and practice, while the absence of learning partners outside the classroom limits opportunities to reinforce skills. This study highlights the necessity of tailored Business English courses that focus not only on language proficiency but also on the unique challenges faced by adult learners. By addressing these challenges, such courses can enhance professional communication skills, contributing to individual career success and business growth. This research underscores the importance of a holistic approach to Business English education, which considers both the instructional environment and the psychological needs of learners.

Abstract

The lack of environmental awareness among the general populace was one of the contributing causes of the environmental problem. Schools or other formal educational institutions can be used to increase students’ environmental awareness. English Language Teaching (ELT) textbooks in Indonesia should contain language materials that not only cover the English material but also consist of environmental awareness. However, some ELT textbooks published in Indonesia and abroad still do not sufficiently cover environmental awareness. Therefore, this research analyzed the representation of environmental awareness in the ELT textbook based on the element of environmental awareness by Kokkinen (2013). Furthermore, critical discourse analysis (CDA) was chosen as the research design in this study, and the data analysis method used Fairclough’s 1995 Three-Dimensional Model (Description, Interpretation, Explanation). The result shows that the representation of environmental awareness is found in various forms of visual and textual materials in the textbook. All topics that represent environmental awareness are problems that occur in everyday life, and almost happen to students today. Keywords: Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), Environmental Awareness, Indonesian ELT Textbook
