Values of struggle in the novel by Ratih Kumala and its implication in learning literature in vocational high school
type: item
description: The purpose of this study is to describe the form of struggle values ​​contained in Ratih Kumala's novel and its use for literature learning in vocational schools. This study analyzes namely Gadis Kretek' and Saga dari Samudra. Type of research is literary research with a descriptive analytical method. The instrument in this study is the researcher herself. Data analysis is classifying data on struggle values ​​in Ratih Kumala's novel, analyzing data, interpreting data, and compiling a learning design device for literary teaching materials. Based on the data analysis that has been done, two things can be concluded as follows. First, there are all indicators of the value of struggle in the novel Gadis Kretek by Ratih Kumala. The most dominant value in Gadis Kretek is the value of patience and unyielding spirit. Meanwhile, in the novel Saga dari Samudra, there are four values of struggle. The most dominant value in the novel Saga dari Samudra is the value of self-sacrifice. There are more values ​​of struggle in the novel Gadis Kretek than in the novel Saga dari Samudra because the novel Gadis Kretek has a plot that predominantly depicts the characters' struggles in life. Second, the value of struggle in the novel by Ratih Kumala is closely related to life problems so that it can be utilized in literature learning, one of which is learning novel texts in class XII SMA / SMK. The utilization of struggle values ​​is done by integrating struggle values ​​as extrinsic elements in a novel.

Develovment of literacy teaching materials in elementary schools based on local wisdom in Kuningan
type: item
description: This study aims to develop literacy teaching materials based on local wisdom for upper-grade elementary school students as a means of supporting the School Literacy Movement. The research addresses the gap in the availability of teaching materials that integrate local wisdom values, particularly in the Kuningan region, which are essential for promoting holistic literacy development. Literacy materials rooted in Kuningan’s local wisdom are crucial, as they enhance students’ understanding by presenting content closely related to their daily lives, such as local culture, traditions, and values. This development research was conducted at SDN 1 Ciloa, SDN Sukaraja, and MI PUI Cilimus in Kuningan. The development process adopted the Joli and Bolitho models, which include stages of needs identification, needs exploration, contextual realization, pedagogical realization, physical production, testing, and product evaluation. Data collection involved both qualitative methods—such as interviews and observations—and quantitative methods from questionnaires and tests. The results reveal four key findings. First, the existing literacy materials do not meet students' needs in terms of design and content. Second, the developed materials are comprehensive, addressing linguistic, cognitive, and socio-cultural dimensions while incorporating complete teaching components. Third, feasibility tests—both theoretical (conducted by experts) and empirical (involving teachers and students)—indicate that the materials are appropriate for use. Fourth, effectiveness testing shows that the materials are effective when implemented in classroom learning. Thus, the developed literacy teaching materials based on local wisdom are not only feasible but also effective in enhancing literacy learning among elementary students in Kuningan.

A Sufistic Analysis of Hasan's Spiritual Journey in the Novel Atheist
type: item
description: Atheis is a novel by Achdiat K. Mihardja published by Balai Pustaka in 1949. There are many studies on this novel. This proves that the novel Atheis is interesting and important to study. This research is a qualitative research using Sigmund Freud's psychoanalysis approach which emphasizes the important role of the unconscious mind in shaping human behavior and experience. The main elements in this theory are motivation, emotion and other aspects of personality. The results show that the novel Atheis contains many religious elements, especially in terms of Sufiistic aspects. In the novel Atheis, the main character, Hasan, experiences an inner debate when he meets his friend, Rusli, who adheres to the ideology of Marxism. As a result, he experiences an inner war between Marxism and Islam. on the other hand, it is depicted that the main character has a strong commitment to religion. Religious commitment is depicted in the story which includes various aspects, ranging from aspects of belief, aspects of practice, aspects of knowledge, aspects of experience, and aspects of consequences. Based on the five aspects, the knowledge aspect is the aspect that appears most often because it is owned and mastered by the characters.

Exsploring the Madurese political culture in the short story Pelean Klebun by Ahmad Suipardi
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the dynamic interplay between social structures and individual agents in Madurese political culture as depicted in Achmad Supardi's short story “Pelean Klebun” and the representation of Madurese culture in its political culture. The research used qualitative method with a sociological approachbased on Anthony Giddens. The results of this study reveal the depiction of the duality of structuration in the relationship between structure and agents in recursive and decursive forms. The recursive structure reinforces traditional power hierarchies by positioning established elites (blater, kiai, Klébun) in political processes, while the decursive structure represents countervailing democratic principles that theoretically allow non-elites to participate in village head elections. The representation of Madurese political culture in this literary work is depicted through the social background of Madura and its various phenomena, including the defense of dignity in village head elections.

Needs analysis fo the development of web-based teaching materials in scientific writing skills instruction for eleventh-grade vocational high school students
type: item
description: The development of students' scientific writing skills remains a significant challenge in vocational high schools, where conventional teaching materials often fail to accommodate students' technological learning preferences. This study aims to analyze the needs for developing web-based teaching materials to enhance the scientific writing skills of eleventh-grade vocational students. Utilizing a Research and Development (R&D) approach with the ADDIE model framework, this study involved two vocational school teachers and sixty eleventh-grade students in Bandung, Indonesia. Data were collected through teacher interviews and student questionnaires, then analyzed descriptively. The findings revealed that 63% of students experienced difficulties in scientific writing due to limited understanding of formal writing techniques, structuring arguments, and lack of digital learning resources. Teachers indicated the necessity for contextualized and interactive web-based learning platforms that align with the differentiated learning approach of the Curriculum Merdeka. Furthermore, over 80% of students expressed a preference for digital and interactive learning environments to improve their engagement and writing competence. The study concludes that the development of web-based portable-E teaching materials is essential to bridge the gap between students' needs and current teaching practices. The proposed innovation not only addresses students' difficulties in writing but also promotes independent learning, enhances digital literacy, and supports the achievement of curriculum goals. These findings offer valuable insights for future instructional material design and educational technology integration in vocational education contexts.

Enhancing creative narrative writing skills and multimodal communication competence through a digital storytelling-based project-based learning model
type: item
description: A fundamental gap between the demand for multimodal communication competence in the digital era and conventional, text-centric writing pedagogy in higher education was the foundational problem for this research. This study investigated the effectiveness of an integrated learning model, combining Project-Based Learning (PjBL) and Digital Storytelling (DST), as a solution to simultaneously enhance students' creative narrative writing skills and multimodal communication competence. The research employed a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest nonequivalent control group design involving 60 Indonesian Language and Literature Education students, divided into an experimental group (n=30) and a control group (n=30). The results demonstrated a statistically significant advantage for the experimental group, which exhibited substantially greater improvement in creative narrative writing skills (t(58) = 20.45, p < .001) and achieved superior multimodal communication competence scores (t(58) = 16.98, p < .001) compared to the control group. The study concluded that the integration of PjBL and DST is an effective and robust pedagogical intervention for equipping students with holistic literacy skills relevant to the 21st century, successfully bridging traditional writing practices with contemporary digital communication demands.

Mythical guardians to modern advocates: Rewriting Mbok Delima, a guardian of food sovereignty in ASEAN context
type: item
description: Reframing Mbok Delima in the Osing-Javanese folktale Panji Gimawang through a Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) lens, this study reveals her obscured expertise in agriculture and food security and challenges the patriarchal bias of traditional storytelling. Using Todorov’s narrative sequence, equilibrium, disruption, recognition, repair, and new equilibrium, The researcher demonstrates how Mbok Delima can be repositioned as the primary agent safeguarding food sovereignty. We propose a portable rewriting framework that blends gender analysis, social-inclusion metrics, and pedagogical strategies. Although rooted in a Javanese case, the framework is transferable across Southeast Asia: comparable agrarian heroines such as Mae Posop (Thailand), can likewise be reinterpreted to amplify women’s roles in local food systems. By aligning with ASEAN principles of respect, peace, prosperity, diversity, and human-rights protection, as well as the ASEAN Integrated Food Security Framework 2025, this study positions folktale revision as a regional strategy for promoting progressive gender dynamics, inclusive cultural discourse, and resilient food security.

Representation of Human Rights Violation in The Novels by Leila S. Chudori
type: item
description: Many authors use the theme of human rights in literature to highlight and address social issues. Similarly, Leila S. Chudori explores human rights violations in her novels Pulang (2012), Laut Bercerita (2017), and Namaku Alam (2023). This study analyzes the depiction of human rights abuses in these works as reflections of social realities during Indonesia's New Order era, employing new historicism theory. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through reading, recording, and literature review. To ensure validity, semantic checks were applied, while reliability was confirmed through intrarater and interrater methods. Data analysis combined archaeological method and thick description techniques. The findings reveal that Chudori's novels effectively depict various human rights violations experienced during the New Order period, such as political imprisonment, enforced disappearances, censorship, or state violence to give readers a clearer understanding of the study's scope offering critical insight into the era's social and political context. This study contributes by illuminating how Indonesian literary narratives reinterpret New Order history, thereby bridging historical memory dan cultural expression.

Mapping the phonological processes of 4, 5, and 6 years old children in PAUD Tasikmalaya
type: item
description: Phonological ability reflects the perceptual and cognitive mechanisms required for children to learn and produce speech. This study aims to map phonological processes in early childhood at PAUD institutions in Tasikmalaya. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected from 315 children aged 4–6 years (77 aged 4, 148 aged 5, and 90 aged 6) across five schools: RA Baiturrahman, TK Negeri Pembina, TK Cangkurileung Kartika IX-10, TK IT Ihya As-Sunah, and Joykids. Speech samples in Indonesian were obtained through recordings of both structured and conversational speech. Data validity was ensured through expert judgment, and analysis followed the stages of data reduction, display, and verification. Results show that assimilation was the most dominant phonological process for both vowels and consonants across all ages. For vowels, assimilation declined with age (9 cases at age 4, 7 at age 5, and 3 at age 6), while addition (4 → 2 → 2) and substitution (3 → 0 → 1) were less frequent. Consonant assimilation was more prevalent (62 → 71 → 27), with gliding substitution (13 → 5 → 0) and general substitution (4 → 2 → 0) steadily decreasing. Sound addition appeared only at age 6 (3 cases). These findings indicate that vowel mastery stabilizes earlier, while consonant mastery involves more complex developmental processes. The study provides baseline data for identifying phonological difficulties early and offers guidance for PAUD teachers to recognize ongoing phonological processes beyond age six as possible signs of language delay.

Voicing heartbreak: The sociopragmatics of ‘Cidra’ and Javanese masculinity in Didi Kempot’s lyrics
type: item
description: This study investigates the representation of cidra (heartbreak or betrayal of promise) and the construction of Javanese masculinity in Didi Kempot’s song lyrics through a sociopragmatic approach. Drawing on seven songs from four albums, the analysis proceeds in three steps: (1) segmenting the lyrics into expressive speech acts, (2) interpreting them through affective cultural scripts, and (3) situating the findings within masculinity discourses. The results reveal a tripartite model of male emotionality: (1) loyalty and patience that affirm Javanese cultural values, (2) emotional fragility expressed through crying and complaint, which challenges the script of stoic masculinity, and (3) resignation (lilo) as a culturally sanctioned coping mechanism. These dimensions converge into the concept of hybrid masculinity, which reconciles normative ideals with emotional expressions previously deemed inappropriate for Javanese men. Theoretically, this study contributes a sociopragmatic framework for analyzing emotional speech acts in non-Western contexts and positions popular music not only as a reflection but also as a site for reshaping gender norms. Practically, it demonstrates how Didi Kempot’s songs function as a form of collective cultural therapy, offering insights for culturally sensitive approaches to men’s mental health.

Developing JF standard-based digital grammar resources for intermediate Japanese language education: Research and best practices
type: item
description: Japanese language education in Indonesia faces critical challenges in intermediate grammar instruction regarding alignment with international standards, active learning integration, and digital resource availability. This study evaluates existing intermediate Japanese grammar materials against JF Standard requirements and develops a practical framework for creating digital resources. Employing design-based research methodology, this study analyzed materials from 10 Indonesian universities, conducted needs analysis surveys with 105 intermediate learners, developed the "Nihongo with Irma Sensei" prototype, and validated materials through expert evaluation and field testing. Findings reveal substantial gaps: 0% inclusion of JF Standard components (Can-do statements, communicative competence frameworks, learner portfolios), 15% active learning integration, and 8% digital availability. Field testing showed 96% participant interest in digital materials and 96.1% acknowledged enhanced comprehension. The study identifies five best practices: contextualized presentation through multimedia, interactive exercises with immediate feedback, multimodal approaches, strict JF Standard alignment, and user-centered design. This research demonstrates the feasibility and effectiveness of JF Standard-aligned digital materials leveraging multimedia technologies to facilitate contextualized and communicative language learning.

Language variation in Sobat Ambyar movie: A sociolinguistic review
type: item
description: Language variation is an important linguistic phenomenon because it can show the social diversity of speakers and the function of language in social interaction. In the context of film, language variation can be a mirror of existing social and cultural dynamics and provide comprehensive sociolinguistic insights. The purpose of this study is to describe the forms of language variation found in the dialogue of Sobat Ambyar movie in order to understand the relationship between language variation and the social context behind it and its contribution to strengthening local cultural identity and authenticity of the film. This research approach uses a qualitative approach. The data were obtained by using listening and note-taking techniques, content analysis with descriptive presentation. The results of this study obtained six language variations namely acrolek, basilek, vulgar, colloquial, jargon, and ken in Indonesian and Javanese. The dominant findings of this study were vulgar, basilek, and acrolek, with 18, 13, and 14 findings, severally. The use of these language variations enriches the viewing experience and strengthens local cultural identity, making the film more authentic and close to the audience.

From regulation to instruction: Embedding legal English in Indonesian law schools through ESP
type: item
description: This study investigates the integration of Legal English into Indonesian law schools, emphasizing the persistent gap between national language policy and pedagogical implementation. Although Indonesian regulations, such as Law No. 24 of 2009 and Law and Human Rights Ministerial Regulation No. 13 of 2018, recognize the use of English in legal communication, its curricular application remains fragmented and discretionary. Adopting an interdisciplinary mixed approach that combines doctrinal legal analysis, English for Specific Purposes (ESP) literature review, and questionnaire-based inquiry involving law students and lecturers, this study examines how policy mandates are interpreted in classroom practice. Findings reveal a clear policy–practice misalignment: Legal English is often treated as an elective subject, lecturers lack institutional support and ESP training, and students report limited opportunities for structured instruction despite acknowledging its importance for professional competence. The paper uniquely bridges regulatory and pedagogical perspectives by demonstrating how doctrinal frameworks can inform curriculum reform through Content-Based Instruction (CBI), Task-Based Learning (TBL), and mediation-oriented pedagogy. By aligning regulatory obligations with evidence-based ESP principles, the study proposes practical strategies for curriculum design, faculty development, and institutional policy to strengthen Legal English as a core component of legal education in Indonesia.

Recontextualizing cybertextual discourse with post-functional linguistics and mindful deep-learning
type: item
description: This study explores the conceptualization of linguistic context as cybertextual, a multimodal and digitally mediated construct within the framework of post-functional linguistics. It argues that digital communication extends linguistic boundaries, integrating visual, gestural, aural, spatial, and textual modes in meaning-making. Anchored in mindful deep learning, mindfulness is viewed not only as cognitive awareness but as a pedagogical stance that nurtures attentiveness, emotional regulation, and reflective engagement with multimodal semiotic resources. The study aims to (1) classify diverse forms of cybertextual context and (2) interpret their functional identities through mindful learning. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, it analyzes authentic data from Instagram to examine meaning construction through semiotic layering. Employing extralinguistic equivalence analysis, the research identifies five interrelated modalities—visual, gestural, aural, spatial, and linguistic—each contributing distinctively to interactional meaning. The integration of mindful deep learning within this model reveals how learners can cultivate semiotic sensitivity, interpretive accuracy, and empathetic communication in digital environments. The study advances post-functional linguistic theory and provides pedagogical insights for fostering critical and ethical language awareness in multimodal, digitally enriched learning settings.

type: item
description: This research aims to (1) Describe the implementation of digital media with culturally responsive perceptions to improve the reading skills of fourth-grade elementary school students and (2) describe the supporting and inhibiting factors in the application of digital media with culturally responsive perceptions in reading instruction in fourth-grade elementary school. This research uses a classroom action research design conducted in two cycles. The subjects of the study are 15 fourth-grade elementary school students. The research procedures include planning, action implementation, observation, and reflection stages. Data collection techniques are observation, interviews, tests, and documentation. Data is analyzed descriptively quantitatively and qualitatively based on the improvement of scores and student engagement. The research results show that the application of digital media based on Culturally Responsive Teaching improves students' reading skills from the pre-cycle to cycle I and cycle II. The improvement is evident in students' literal, interpretive, and evaluative understanding aspects. Media that connects the reading content with the students' culture has been shown to enhance interest and active participation in the learning process. The conclusion of this study states that the Culturally Responsive Teaching-based learning approach supported by digital media can create a more meaningful, contextual, and inclusive learning experience. This research contributes to the development of pedagogical practices in elementary schools by integrating digital technology and culturally responsive learning approaches. These results can serve as a reference for teachers, media developers, and education policy makers in designing literacy strategies that are relevant to the social and cultural contexts of students.

Development of padlet website learning media based on East Java local wisdom for storytelling skills
type: item
description: A This study aims to develop learning media based on the Padlet website to improve storytelling skills among elementary school students through the integration of East Javanese local wisdom. The developed media includes eight main menus, namely the main page, identity profile, learning outcomes, student attendance, material, student worksheet, evaluation, and bibliography, which provide an interactive and engaging learning experience. The research employed the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) and involved 80 third-grade students as participants. Data were obtained from media and material expert validation questionnaires, as well as student response questionnaires after the implementation stage. The validation results showed that the developed media achieved a validity score of 90% from material experts and 87% from media experts, indicating that the product met the feasibility standards. Moreover, the student response test revealed a very positive perception, particularly in terms of attractiveness, interactivity, and usefulness for learning storytelling skills. These findings demonstrate that the Padlet-based learning media incorporating East Javanese local wisdom is effective, practical, and of high quality in supporting the development of students’ storytelling skills. The significance of this study lies in offering a digital learning innovation that strengthens cultural values while enhancing literacy competence in elementary education.

Postcolonial encounters between the west, the east, and Islam in Hanum Salsabiela’s travel writing
type: item
description: Travel writing serves as a crucial medium through which narrators document and interpret their encounters with foreign cultures. This study examines Hanum Salsabiela’s Bulan Terbelah di Langit Amerika (BTLA) to explore how the narrator reports on the United States, expresses her self-identity during her journey in the United States, and represents the people of the United States through the lens of postcolonial travel writing. This research is significant because the narrator not only depicts the United States as a geographical and cultural space but also highlights the presence of Islam within it. As the country with the largest Muslim population in the world, it is not surprising that many Indonesian travel writers are drawn to Islamic regions such as the Middle East. However, in recent years, some have begun to explore Western countries, which differ significantly in culture and religion. The data collection methods used in this research are textual observation and note-taking. In addition, the data analysis employs discourse analysis grounded in the postcolonial travel writing paradigms of Carl Thompson. In conclusion, the study indicates that the United States is portrayed as a metropolitan country, yet it continues to face overlapping social issues, including homelessness, Islamophobia, and discrimination. BTLA functions as self-reflective travel writing, using the United States as a space for the narrator to explore and reflect on her identity as a Muslim. Furthermore, in representing the Other, the narrator still exhibits traces of a neo-colonial attitude, even though she strives to present a cosmopolitan perspective.

Literary therapy and child mental-health advocacy in Clara Ng’s stories
type: item
description: C hildren's literature has great potential in supporting children's mental health. However, in Indonesia, the issue of children's mental health is still often considered taboo. This article aims to re-read Clara Ng's collection of stories, Bagai Bumi Berhenti Berputar (As If the Earth Stopped Spinning), as a form of advocacy for children experiencing mental health issues through a therapeutic approach to literature. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with empathetic narrative reading techniques on five children's stories, namely Pohon Harapan, Seribu Sahabat Selamanya, Kerlip Bintang di Langit, Jangan Lupa Aku Mencintaimu, and Yang Paling Istimewa. The analysis was conducted in three stages: (1) identifying the emotional conflicts and inner dynamics of the child characters, (2) interpreting the symbolism and coping mechanisms that appear in the narrative, and (3) examining the forms of emotional advocacy built through the relationships between characters and the storytelling structure. The results of the study show that these stories: (a) validate children's emotions honestly without denial, (b) provide an emotional safe space through symbols, dialogue, and imagination that enable reflection and recovery, and (c) strengthen children's agency in dealing with traumatic experiences by attaching meaning to emotional experiences. In conclusion, this collection of stories not only represents children's psychological dynamics but also functions as a medium of literary advocacy that supports emotional recovery and encourages the surrounding environment to be more sensitive to children's mental health issues.

Mapping of Javanese subdialects in Cirebon and Indramayu
type: item
description: This study aims to identify and map the subdialects of Cirebon-Indramayu Javanese based on word/phrase forms and their meanings, and to analyze their dialectal relationships. This study is a sociolinguistic study, using a direct method (field survey), which involves collecting data by directly visiting respondents. Based on the research findings, there are 57 dialectal vocabulary items from Cirebon-Indramayu Javanese originating from four sub-districts in Cirebon Regency and six sub-districts in Indramayu Regency: Gegesik, Susukan, Kapetakan, and Tukdana (Cirebon Regency), and Kedokanbunder, Kertasemaya, Krangkeng, Sakagumiwang, Sindang, and Balongan (Indramayu Regency). Based on the results of the vocabulary and meaning study of the 57 vocabularies, 4 subdialects of Cirebon Javanese and 6 subdialects of Indramayu Javanese were identified and mapped, namely the Cirebon dialect: (1) Gegesik subdialect; (2) Susukan subdialect; (3) Kapetakan subdialect; and (4) Tukdana subdialect. The subdialects for Indramayu Javanese are: (1) Kedokanbunder subdialect; (2) Kertasemaya subdialect; (3) Kerangkeng subdialect; (4) Sakagumiwang subdialect; (5) Sindang subdialect; and (6) Balongan subdialect. The Javanese subdialects in several areas in Cirebon and Indramayu are proven to have quite significant differences and contain elements of absorption from Javanese and Sundanese dialects.

The phenomenon of xenoglossophilia in podcast media: A portrait of generation Z’s communication
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze how xenoglossophilia manifests in podcast content, and its impact on the communication patterns of Generation Z. Adopting a qualitative approach, this study uses discourse analysis to examine popular podcasts that frequently incorporate foreign languages and are widely consumed by Generation Z. The survey results conclude that Generation Z's foreign language use is primarily driven by social trends and influences, with social media and films as the primary sources. Foreign languages are most frequently used in everyday conversation and social media, while usage in formal contexts remains low, suggesting that this practice is more of a lifestyle than a communicative need. Analysis of The Indah G Show podcast reinforces these findings through quotes highlighting the superiority of English over Indonesian in terms of efficiency and vocabulary. This phenomenon reflects a shift in the linguistic attitudes of the younger generation and poses challenges in maintaining the sustainability and prestige of the Indonesian language in the era of globalization. This study recommends the development of a digital media-based learning model for the use of foreign languages to preserve and strengthen national language identity.

The moral value of the anthology of short stories Senyum Karyamin by Ahmad Tohari and its relevance in literary learning in high school
type: item
description: This study examines the representation of moral values in the Anthology of Short Stories Senyum Karyamin by Ahmad Tohari and its relevance in literary learning in high school. Through a qualitative-descriptive research method with content analysis techniques, the researcher found four main categories of moral values, namely values related to God, self, the social environment, and nature, with a strong dominance in social aspects. This tendency shows the author's ideological intention in framing social reality morally. The results of the study show that these values are relevant for the formation of students' character, especially in the aspects of spirituality, personal responsibility, interpersonal communication, and environmental concern. Therefore, this anthology is worthy of being used as a teaching resource in strengthening value-based literary literacy in grade XI of high school.

Media narratives and linguistic agency: The role of language in framing perpetrators of violence against women and children in Indonesia
type: item
description: Language plays a crucial role in shaping public perception, especially in news reporting. This study examines how grammatical constructions are used to frame perpetrators of violence against women and children in Indonesian social media news. Using Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), it focuses on four types of sentence structures—active voice, passive voice, nominalization, and subordinate clauses—to uncover how language influences the representation of agency and accountability. A total of 15 news articles published between 2023 and 2024 from seven online media outlets (Detik.com, BBC.com, Kompas.com, Liputan6.com, Sumbar.Suara.com, Kompas.com, and Andika TV) were analyzed qualitatively. The results show that passive constructions dominate, followed by active voice, subordinate clauses, and nominalization. Active sentences highlight perpetrators and institutional actions, while passive and nominalized constructions often obscure agency and shift attention toward victims or events. Subordinate clauses emphasize victims’ experiences, evoking empathy but weakening perceptions of offender responsibility. These linguistic patterns reveal how news discourse can influence emotional and moral judgments about gender-based violence. The findings emphasize the need for journalists to adopt clear, active, and ethical language use and for media educators to integrate discourse awareness into journalism training to promote responsible and balanced reporting.

The use of directive speech transfer patterns as an implementation of teacher interaction styles in Indonesian language learning
type: item
description: The application of the teacher's interaction style by arranging speech with directive speech is a superior ability in Indonesian language learning. This is because teachers are required to implement Indonesian learning that can develop critical, creative, communicative, and collaborative characters in students. Therefore, this study aims to describe speech switching through how to take over the turn of speech and provide a turn of speech with directive speech as a form of applying the teacher's interaction style in Indonesian learning to increase students' active participation in developing critical, creative, communicative, and collaborative skills. The approach used in this study is the classroom discourse approach. This class discourse approach directs analysis on data obtained from formal and planned conversation interactions (plan discourse). The focus of this conversation interaction lies with the teacher, as the determinant of the topic of conversation. The three main things appear in this Indonesian learning research in the form of: (1) students give honest responses to learning stimulants provided by teachers, (2) students submit more opinions on the information conveyed by the teacher or on the opinions submitted by other students, provide more information, (3) students make their own learning conclusions in their own language and way, Both individually and in groups, (4) students make optimal use of their activities, respond to learning stimuli provided by teachers, (5) students who ask questions, both to teachers and to other students, and (6) students make their own assessments of the results of their work.

The level and forms of verbal creativity of microteaching student practitioners
type: item
description: This study aims to describe the verbal creativity of student practitioners in the Microteaching course. The aspects discussed include verbal creativity based on the categories of flexibility, fluency, originality, and elaboration. Each category is described based on the level of scores (high or low) and the corresponding forms. The results of this study show that: (a) the level of fluency of students in generating many ideas is highest in word production. The forms of word production in the fluency category, based on the most frequently produced word classes, are nouns. Based on word meaning, most students tend to produce denotative meanings. This reflects a tendency to use words in their general or literal sense. (b) the level of flexibility of microteaching student practitioners is high. In terms of form, student practitioners demonstrate high flexibility in sentence form and sentence use, but lower in sentence length, imagination, and fantasy. (c) the level of originality of microteaching student practitioners is high. The forms of students’ verbal creativity originality include five aspects: originality in theme, original solution or ending, humorous elements in sentences, the use of self-created words or names, and the originality of the respondent’s writing style. (d) the level of elaboration of student practitioners is high. Meanwhile, the forms of elaboration include four aspects: aesthetic quality, emotional content, empathy, and personal elements, while the elements of direct narrative sentence conversation and the use of quotations are not fulfilled.
