Abstract

This study is performed based on concerns that knowledge dichotomy in traditional Islamic boarding schools has not received the serious attention it deserves. In contrast to modern pesantren where santri receives both religious and non-religious knowledge, most traditional pesantren in Jekulo, Kudus regency only emphasizes religious knowledge as their core curriculum. Our preliminary study in 2022 suggested that the majority of student santri in Jekulo, Kudus regency showed unfavorable perceptions towards pursuing higher education despite being offered financial aid and academic mentorship. Our current task is to introduce film-based intervention and document its effect on santri's perception change towards academic success. Although the use of film-based intervention to change perception and reduce stigma has been profound in the field of clinical psychology, its application in a nonclinical setting is still understudied. Using Social Comparison Theory (Festinger, 1954) as our analytical framework, we propose that historical film can be introduced as an alternative point of reference for our subject. Respondents were selected using purposive sampling (n=20). Pre- and post-studies are provided to document santri's perception change toward striving for academic success. The results of this study confirm that film intervention can act as positive stimuli in the process of perception changes among santri by presenting relatable cinematic historical experiences as an alternative social reference. However, a lack of a role model and a shared perception toward academic success in santri's immediate environment can hinder the process

The study conducted a comprehensive approach encompassing academic and non-academic habits to provide a nuanced understanding of the intricate. Through a correlational design, the study analyses various environmental factors, including home environment and school environment. By analyzing the impact of these variables on the routines of students, the study seeks to discern recurring trends and associations that facilitate the formation and reinforcement of particular conduct. The population of this study was students at IBC School Makassar in the academic year of 2023/2024. The researchers selected 1 class of 10 students as samples of the study. The data was collected through the distribution of questionnaires regarding the students' habits, familial environment, and school environment.

Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the Blindfold game in enhancing vocabulary mastery among students. A quasi-experimental design was utilized, involving both control and experimental groups. Sixth-grade students from a Demak elementary school participated in the study, which employed a non-random sampling method. The research sample included an experimental group consisting of 22 students from class VIA and a control group of 21 students from class VIB. Data on students' vocabulary knowledge were collected through a vocabulary exam comprising 15 multiple-choice questions and 10 matching items, administered via pre-tests and post-tests. The researcher analyzed the data using a t-test and SPSS 23. The pre- and post-test scores for the experimental group were 60.91 and 78.18, respectively, while the control group achieved scores of 56.76 and 60.95. The statistical analysis indicated a significance level (2-tailed) of less than 0.05, resulting in the rejection of H0 and the acceptance of H1. In conclusion, the Blindfold game has been demonstrated to be an effective instructional tool for improving vocabulary knowledge among Indonesian EFL young learners. The game not only enhanced students' vocabulary mastery but also increased their motivation to learn English. Accordingly, it is recommended that teachers utilize diverse teaching methods to foster students' learning motivation, encouraging them to become engaged and enthusiastic participants in class.

Abstract

In 2023, Yogyakarta Province has documented 308 instances of sexual violence, including cases of verbal abuse. This fact is surprising given Yogyakarta's unique position as a cultural showcase in Indonesia, which is particularly evident in its depictions of politeness and identity. In contrast, Yogyakarta's Javanese propriety culture, known as unggah-ungguh, functions as a vital protective mechanism for its community by integrating local cultural components. This distinctive cultural politeness parallels Leech's Six Maxims of Politeness: Tact Maxim, Generosity Maxim, Approbation Maxim, Modesty Maxim, Agreement Maxim, and Sympathy Maxim. This research examines the correlation between these maxims and Javanese parenting practices as delineated in publications by the Department of Women's Empowerment, Child Protection, and Population Control of Yogyakarta, aimed at educators and parents in Yogyakarta, emphasizing the significance of courteous communication and virtuous conduct grounded in Javanese tradition. Strengthening the initiative from school to university levels, together with adequate support from family and community, may lead to a reduction in verbal sexual assault.

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of a systematic review based on published studies on the genre-based approach (GBA) in writing explanation texts. The studies reviewed were from 2019-2023 with a total of ten studies. The objective of this review is to show how GBA enhances students’ writing skills in explanation texts, as well as the research trends related to GBA in the context of explanation texts. This review used thematic analysis to categorize the main themes that emerge in the selected studies. The findings show that the genre-based approach to writing explanation texts is very effective and enables students to understand and produce coherent, cohesive, and well-organized written works, as well as to improve their awareness and creativity skills, as they learn to examine, evaluate, and produce explanation texts, especially with the support of media or other techniques such as images, and jigsaw. These findings confirm that the genre-based approach improves students’ skills in writing explanation texts. Regarding the publication trends by year, there has been a limited number of research on GBA in the genre of explanation texts in the last 5 years, with the peak of publication in 2023 and 2020 (3 articles each), and the lowest in 2019 and 2022 (1 article each). In addition, most of the publications on this topic in the last 5 years came from Asian countries, with Indonesia leading the list, followed by Thailand.

Abstract

William Faulkner`s A Rose for Emily is narrated in a complex narrative structure, thus, making it difficult to follow the story`s chronology despite its relatively short form. This article provides a different approach using Propp`s narratology to show that the story can be read as a modern fairy tale but with some twisted elements. The analysis focuses on the sequence of events based on Propp`s 31 narrative functions. The analysis also highlights the characters performing the functions following Propp`s seven types of dramatis personae. The findings reveal that the events in A Rose for Emily conform to some of the narrative functions of a fairy tale. The initial situation introduces Emily as the heroine of the story, followed by her father's death, which represents the absentation function. In the middle of the narrative, the villainy function serves as the complication of the story. The story`s end is also similar to a fairy tale by the wedding function. However, these fairy tale elements are presented in twisted ways. Emily was introduced only when she died, and she poisoned Homer to be able to live with him ever after. Meanwhile, Emily and Homer also provide twists as the story's heroine and villain.
