Abstract

The widespread use of social media has led several accounts to utilize these platforms as educational media for cyber sexual harassment (CSH) awareness. This research examines the relationship between motives and satisfaction of followers of CSH educational accounts in Indonesia, analyzing four prominent accounts: @media.riseup, @awaskbgo, @stop.kbgo, and @taskforce_kbgo. This study employs quantitative methods using the Expectancy-Value model introduced by Palmgreen, distinguishing between Gratification Sought (GS) and Gratification Obtained (GO). Data were collected from 100 respondents across Indonesia using proportionate stratified random sampling, with analysis conducted through Spearman Rho correlation and mean difference tests. The sample comprised predominantly female followers (68%) aged 19-25 years, with 52% having experienced cyber sexual harassment. The results demonstrate a significant positive relationship between motives and satisfaction with a correlation value of 0.720 (p < 0.05). However, the mean test reveals a negative satisfaction gap of 0.14 between expected and obtained gratifications, indicating these educational accounts have not fully met followers' expectations. These findings suggest improvements in content consistency and delivery methods are needed to enhance educational effectiveness.

Abstract

The Indonesian government signed the rights of persons with disabilities outlined in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) on March 30, 2007, in New York. The government's obligation is to realize these rights and ensure that people with disabilities can participate in all aspects of life, including the utilization of technology, information, and communication. This research aims to prove the hypothesis that the implementation of a deaf interpreter can be an innovation of inclusivity in public relations in Indonesian higher education. The researcher analyzed the qualitative content of graduation ceremonies from the best universities across Indonesia that were broadcast on YouTube from 2022 to 2023. Graduation ceremonies were chosen as the research object because they involve many public relations practices during the event. To explore the hypothesis, semiotics was used as a research tradition, complemented by the theory of innovation diffusion. This research confirms that a deaf interpreter can be an innovation of inclusivity in public relations in higher education. This is because it was found that among the many top universities in Indonesia, only a few universities have implemented a deaf interpreter in graduation ceremonies. These include Gadjah Mada University, Brawijaya University, Bandung Institute of Technology, and Padjadjaran University. Other higher education institutions can implement the innovation of a deaf interpreter in graduation ceremonies to create a more inclusive social, educational, cultural, and communicative environment.

Abstract

This study examines the integrated role of educational institutions, media, and government in promoting media literacy among Palembang City residents using the Environmental Factors concept from the European Commission. The research employs a qualitative case study approach through in-depth interviews with key stakeholders, including educators, lecturers, Regional Indonesian Broadcasting Commission representatives, journalists, and media activists. The study reveals that successful media literacy promotion requires collaborative efforts between government agencies, educational institutions, and media organizations. The findings indicate that media availability in Palembang includes diverse internet providers, widespread smartphone penetration, and multiple radio and television stations. However, the media literacy context shows gaps in formal education integration, limited policy frameworks, and insufficient civil society participation. The research demonstrates that the synergy between government initiatives, educational programs, and media industry participation significantly enhances media literacy skills among citizens. These findings contribute to understanding multi-stakeholder approaches in media literacy education and provide practical insights for developing comprehensive media literacy strategies in urban Indonesian contexts.
