UTILIZATION OF WAYGROUND AS AN EVALUATION MEDIA FOR LEARNING ANECDOTE TEXTS: A MIXED METHODS STUDY ON GRADE X HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
Evaluation of Indonesian language learning in anecdotal text material is still dominated by conventional methods that tend to be oriented towards the final results and less actively involve students in the learning process. This condition encourages the need to utilize digital technology as a more interactive and effective evaluation tool. This study aims to analyze the differences in student learning evaluation results between the use of Wayground and conventional evaluation and describe student and teacher responses to the use of Wayground in learning anecdotal text. The study used a mixed methods approach with an embedded mixed methods design. The research subjects consisted of 20 students of class X.2 SMAN 1 Cluring who were divided into a Wayground group (10 students) and a conventional group (10 students). Data were collected through learning outcome tests, observations and semi-structured interviews. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Independent Samples t-Test, while qualitative data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The results showed that the average score of the Wayground group (86.5) was higher than the conventional group (81.0). However, the results of statistical tests showed that the difference was not significant (t = 1.169; p = 0.258). Qualitative findings indicate that Wayground increased student engagement, enthusiasm, independence, and participation during the evaluation. Teachers assessed that Wayground streamlined the assessment process, expedited the delivery of evaluation results, and supported the provision of direct feedback. Students also found the evaluations more engaging and facilitated understanding of the material. Despite challenges such as limited internet connection and devices, Wayground has the potential to support more interactive, efficient, and student-centered learning evaluations.

AN ANALYSIS OF ERRORS IN OFFICIAL LETTER WRITING AT THE KAMPUNG BARU VILLAGE OFFICE IN 2025
This study aims to identify and describe errors in official letter writing at the Kampung Baru Village Office in 2025 and analyze the various factors behind the occurrence of these errors. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a content analysis method. The data source in this study is an archive of official letters sourced from 50 outgoing letters at the Kampung Baru Village Office in 2025. The data in this study are errors in outgoing letter writing at the Kampung Baru Village Office. All data were obtained through documentation and interview techniques, then analyzed referring to the theory of language errors in official letters. The results showed that there were 237 error data based on nine categories of letter writing. Language errors in the letter content were the most dominant finding with a frequency of 57 data. Other significant errors were found in the writing of letter numbers (36 data) and letter addresses (35 data). Specifically, errors in the letter content include errors in the use of capital letters, sentence structure, common abbreviations, writing rupiah nominals, writing colons (:), writing the suffix -nya, to the format for writing NIP and the name of the signatory that does not comply with the latest rules. The factors causing these errors include communication barriers in understanding instructions from higher-level agencies, overlapping workloads (multitasking), the lack of a specific guidebook for official scripts in the village office, and inaccuracy in the choice of diction. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that the quality of correspondence at the Kampung Baru Village Office still requires significant improvement through the provision of applicable technical guidelines and the implementation of regular technical guidance training for village officials.
Translanguaging Practices in Primary Education: A Systematic Literature Review of Pedagogical Trends
This systematic literature review examines research trends and pedagogical implications of translanguaging practices in primary education. Drawing on 148 Scopus-indexed publications published between 2015 and 2025, the study analyzes annual publication trends, geographical distribution, research designs, participant focus, developed skills, and students’ linguistic backgrounds. The findings indicate a substantial increase in translanguaging research over the past decade, reflecting a growing recognition of translanguaging as a pedagogical response to multilingual classroom realities in primary education. Research output is predominantly concentrated in a limited number of countries, particularly Spain, the United States, China, and South Africa, revealing imbalances in global knowledge production. Methodologically, qualitative approaches dominate, with students identified as the primary research subjects, underscoring the learner-centered orientation of translanguaging pedagogy. The reviewed studies report that translanguaging supports language development, classroom communication, conceptual understanding, and the legitimization of students’ mother tongues within instructional practices. Translanguaging is most frequently implemented among EFL learners, immigrant students, indigenous communities, and learners in complex multilingual contexts. Overall, this review positions translanguaging as a pedagogical approach that extends beyond linguistic outcomes, offering meaningful implications for inclusive language teaching practices and the sustained use of learners’ linguistic resources in multilingual primary classrooms.

Metode kualitatif yang bersifat deskriptif digunakan dalam penelitian ini, sedangkan teknik analisis pada penelitian ini menggunakan teknik analisis distribusional, yaitu metode analisis yang menjadi alat penentunya adalah bahasa itu sendiri. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa media online Republika memberitakan aktor-aktor sosial Israel seperti negara Israel, perdana menteri Benjamin Netanyahu, dan pejabat Israel secara eksplisit dengan lebih banyak merepresentasikannya menggunakan strategi inklusi seperti Determinasi-Indeterminasi, Nominasi-Identifikasi, dan Nominasi-Kategorisasi, Objektivasi-Abstraksi, Diferensiasi-Indiferensiasi, dan Asimilasi-individualisasi, sehingga pembaca mengetahui dengan jelas apa yang dilakukan aktor-aktor tersebut. Temuan ini menunjukkan peran penting media dalam menyampaikan informasi dan mereproduksi realitas untuk pembaca. Kata Kunci: Analisis wacana kritis, Representasi aktor sosial, Theo van Leeuwen, Republika Abstract This research examines the representation of social actors in the news coverage of the Israel-Iran war in the online media outlet Republika during June 2025. This study aims to describe the social actors of Israel in the news using the social actor representation approach, the critical discourse analysis model by Theo van Leeuwen. A qualitative, descriptive method was used in this research, while the analysis technique employed was distributional analysis, which uses the language itself as the determining tool. The research results show that the online media Republika explicitly reports on Israeli social actors such as the state of Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Israeli officials by representing them more thoroughly through inclusion strategies such as Determination-Indeterminacy, Nomination-Identification, Nomination-Categorization, Objectivation-Abstraction, Differentiation-Indifferentiation, and Assimilation-Individualization, so that readers clearly understand what these actors are doing. These findings highlight the important role of the media in conveying information and reproducing reality for readers.

THE EXISTENCE OF THE CHARACTER ANG SAN MEI IN PRAMOEDYA ANANTA TOER’S NOVEL JEJAK LANGKAH: A STUDY OF EXISTENTIAL FEMINISM
This study aims to describe the character of Ang San Mei in Pramoedya Ananta Toer’s novel Jejak Langkah through the lens of Simone de Beauvoir’s existentialist feminism. Ang San Mei is a Chinese female character who experiences multiple layers of subordination as a woman, a member of an ethnic minority, and a colonial subject; however, she has not yet been specifically studied using existentialist feminist theory that takes into account the ethnicity and colonialism she experiences. The character of Ang San Mei was chosen for analysis because, although she has been depicted as fighting for her existence, studies on her remain very limited. This study employs a qualitative descriptive method with content analysis techniques. The data sources consist of the narratives, dialogues, and actions of the character Mei in the novel Jejak Langkah. The analytical framework is based on Beauvoir’s four strategies of transcendence: women can work, women can be intellectuals, women can work to achieve social transformation, and women refuse to internalize their subjugation. The results of the study indicate that Mei embodies all four forms of transcendence: asserting economic independence through her work as a teacher and cook; demonstrating intellectualism through geopolitical analysis and organizational awareness; contributing to social transformation through her involvement in Angkatan Muda and propaganda activities; refused to internalize her otherness by defining herself through her own will and idealism. This study concludes that despite experiencing layered subordination, Mei succeeded in transcending her social limitations and asserting herself as an autonomous subject through transcendence.
STRENGTHENING AI-BASED CRITICAL LITERACY IN LITERATURE LEARNING UNDER THE MERDEKA CURRICULUM
Literature learning in the era of digital transformation requires the strengthening of students’ critical literacy so they can interpret, evaluate, and construct meaning reflectively, not merely understand texts literally. The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) offers opportunities to enrich literature learning, yet creates risks of dependence on instant answers when not pedagogically guided. This study examined the effectiveness of an AI-based literature learning model in improving students’ critical literacy and described their responses to AI integration under the Merdeka Curriculum. The study employed a quantitative approach with a nonequivalent control group quasi-experimental design. The population consisted of 360 eleventh-grade students at public senior high school in Kediri City, Indonesia. A total of 120 students were selected through purposive sampling and divided into an experimental group and a control group, each consisting of 60 students. The instruments included a critical literacy test consisting of 20 essay questions, a student response questionnaire, and an observation sheet. The treatment was implemented over six weeks through 12 learning sessions. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, paired sample t-test, independent sample t-test, gain score, and Cohen’s d. The results showed that the experimental group increased from 56.4 to 84.7, while the control group increased from 55.9 to 67.2. The independent sample t-test on gain scores indicated a significant difference, with t=12.47, p=0.000, and Cohen’s d=1.82. Student responses were positive, with 86.7% stating that AI supported critical thinking. These findings indicate that AI-based literature learning is effective and relevant for strengthening critical literacy in Merdeka Curriculum.

Prompting Pattern of MAN 2 Malang City Students in Writing ChatGPT-Assisted Reviews
This study aims to explore the prompting pattern of students in interaction with ChatGPT in review text writing activities. The main focus of the research lies in how students design and use prompts as strategies in directing AI responses at the revision stage (rewriting), not solely on the results of the writing produced. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive-analytical design. The research subjects consist of students in two Phase F classes specializing in Science and Technology at MAN 2 Malang City. The learning activity adopts Donald M. Murray's writing process strategy so that ChatGPT is specifically integrated as a dialogical partner in the revision phase of review texts. Data in the form of 154 prompts obtained from 31 units of student interaction with ChatGPT which were analyzed through a thematic coding process. The results showed that student interaction formed a diverse pattern of prompting strategies, including evaluative prompting, directed revision, and response control. These strategies reflected different levels of cognitive involvement in utilizing AI as digital scaffolding in students' Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD). However, most prompts were still general and technical improvement-oriented, indicating efforts to minimize cognitive load in the revision process. These findings show that the quality of interaction with AI is highly dependent on students' ability to design prompts specifically and reflectively. This study emphasizes that prompting is a key competency in AI-based learning and needs to be explicitly developed as part of digital literacy in pedagogical practice. Keywords: ChatGPT, AI literacy, digital learning, prompting, review
IMPOLITENESS IN THE ONLINE GAME FREE FIRE HIGH CLASS STUDENTS OF SDN KURISA PRAGMATIC STUDIES
The rapid development of digital technology has transformed online games into new spaces for social interaction among children, including elementary school students. One of the most popular online games is Free Fire, which provides real-time communication features through voice chat and text chat. Such interactions potentially encourage language use that deviates from norms of politeness. This study aims to describe the forms of linguistic impoliteness and to identify the factors influencing impolite language use among upper-grade students at SDN Kurisa in their engagement with the online game Free Fire. The research employed a qualitative descriptive approach within a pragmatic framework. The data consisted of students' utterances collected through voice chat recordings, screenshots of in-game text chats, classroom and field observations, and semi-structured interviews with students, teachers, and parents. Data analysis was conducted using Culpeper's theory of impoliteness, encompassing strategies such as bald on record impoliteness, positive impoliteness, negative impoliteness, sarcasm or mock politeness, and withhold politeness. The findings indicate that students frequently produced impolite utterances in the form of insults, profanity, direct commands without mitigation, sarcastic remarks, and the use of harsh slang and gaming jargon. These practices were influenced by internal factors, including limited emotional control and insufficient awareness of politeness norms, as well as external factors such as the competitive nature of the game, peer group influence, and weak social control in digital environments. The study also reveals a tendency for language practices from the gaming context to transfer into everyday school interactions. This research contributes to pragmatic studies on impoliteness in children's digital communication and offers practical implications for teachers and parents in fostering polite language use in the digital era.

ANALYSIS ETHICS AND INTEGRITY SHORT MESSAGE: CASE STUDY OF STUDENTS AT BANGKA BELITUNG UNIVERSITY
The use of WhatsApp messaging can lead to violations of language ethics and a lack of awareness of the values of good and responsible communication. To establish effective communication, students must understand and apply ethics and integrity when sending text messages, especially among students at Bangka Belitung University. This study aims to describe and analyze ethics and integrity in communication, especially among students. This study also uses a qualitative approach with a case study method of Bangka Belitung University students. The research method is descriptive qualitative with a case study approach. The main data source in this study was 40 randomly selected students from the class of 2023. Meanwhile, the analysis technique was carried out using data triangulation, namely using various data sources such as observations, questionnaires, case studies, and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) to strengthen the findings. The results show that communication ethics in text messages include choosing the right time, using opening and closing greetings, conveying one's identity, and using formal, concise, clear language that conforms to the Enhanced Spelling System (EYD). Applying these principles, including rereading messages before sending, can help students build polite, effective, and professional communication with lecturers.

Antipati Digital dan Problem Kesantunan: Analisis Linguistik Forensik terhadap Komentar Instagram tentang Isu Dugaan Ijazah Palsu Joko Widodo
Digital public spaces have evolved into primary arenas for political discourse as well as for the expression of collective emotions. One prominent phenomenon is the proliferation of antipathy-laden comments on Instagram related to the alleged fake diploma issue of President Joko Widodo. This study aims to analyze forms of antipathy expressed in Instagram users’ comments from a forensic linguistics perspective and to examine associated violations of language politeness principles. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, the data consist of 58 Instagram comments collected from posts by public figures and online news media during May–June 2025. Data were analyzed through stages of reduction, classification, and linguistic interpretation based on forensic linguistics frameworks and Brown and Levinson’s politeness theory. The findings reveal that antipathy is predominantly expressed through hate speech, sarcasm, insults, unsubstantiated accusations, harsh satire, and negative labeling. From a forensic linguistics perspective, these expressions are characterized by negative evaluative lexis, presuppositions that frame assumptions as facts, and delegitimizing linguistic strategies targeting the subject. In terms of politeness, most comments violate both positive and negative face, indicating potential ethical and legal implications. This study underscores the urgency of language politeness education as an integral component of digital literacy in fostering responsible online public discourse. Keywords: forensic linguistics, antipathy expressions, language politeness, Instagram, digital public space
ENHANCING COMMUNITY LITERACY THROUGH CONTEXTUAL INDONESIAN LANGUAGE INSTRUCTION
This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of context-based Indonesian language learning in improving the literacy skills of the Kokoda community in Papua. The study is motivated by the low literacy levels influenced by the dominance of local languages, limited access to education, and the lack of learning approaches relevant to daily life contexts. This research employed a descriptive quantitative method combined with a community-based participatory approach (Community-Based Learning). The research design used a one-group pre-test–post-test model involving 45 participants from various age groups. Data were collected through literacy tests, observations, reflective interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The results show that the initial literacy level of participants was categorized as low, with a mean score of 48.0. After the intervention, a significant improvement was observed, with the mean score increasing to 72.7. This improvement is supported by the paired sample t-test result (t = 12.45; p < 0.05), indicating statistical significance. In addition, participant engagement during the learning process was high, suggesting that the context-based approach effectively enhances motivation and participation. Therefore, context-based Indonesian language learning is proven to be effective in improving literacy skills and can be recommended as a strategic approach for literacy eradication and sustainable literacy development in local communities.

This study aims to describe the types of syntactic errors found in the descriptive essays of seventh-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Sindue Tobata. This research employed a descriptive qualitative method, with students’ written works as the data source. The findings show that students’ ability to apply Indonesian syntactic structures still needs improvement. The most frequent errors include phrase structure errors, such as the use of nonstandard phrases, ineffective phrases, and phrases that do not align with their syntactic functions. In addition, sentence structure errors were also identified, including run-on sentences, incomplete sentences, and disorganized sentence elements that obscure meaning. Spelling errors, particularly in the use of capital letters and punctuation marks, further reduced the clarity of students’ writing. These findings indicate that students tend to write using patterns of spoken language, resulting in poorly structured written language. The contributing factors to these errors include limited understanding of phrase concepts and effective sentences, a lack of structured writing practice, and insufficient habituation in applying the rules of Indonesian orthography (PUEBI). Therefore, a more systematic instructional approach is needed to enhance students’ syntactic skills in writing descriptive essays.
SOCIOLINGUISTIC STUDY OF THE USE OF LANGUAGE IN THE TRADITIONAL RITUAL OF "PURUNG TA LIANG MARAPU" IN THE COMMUNITY OF CENTRAL SUMBA REGENCY
The Purung Ta Liang Marapu ritual represents a sacred cultural practice of the Central Sumba community, employing a specialized form of language as a medium of transcendental communication with ancestral entities (Marapu). However, the meanings and functions of this ritual language remain largely inaccessible to the general community and are primarily confined to traditional authorities (Ratu). This study aims to analyze the use of language in the ritual and to identify its social, cultural, and religious-magical functions from a sociolinguistic perspective. This research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive sociolinguistic method. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews with Ratu and traditional elders, and audio-visual documentation. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that ritual language constitutes a sacred register characterized by archaic diction, parallelism, and formulaic expressions. Sociolinguistically, it functions as a mechanism of social legitimacy, a tool for social cohesion, and a medium for transmitting cultural values and Marapu beliefs. Additionally, ritual language exhibits performative properties that contribute to maintaining the balance between humans, ancestors, and the natural world. The limited public understanding is attributed to the exclusivity of oral transmission. Therefore, systematic linguistic documentation is essential to preserve cultural continuity and to bridge intergenerational knowledge gaps in the context of modernization.
EXPRESSIVE SPEECH ACTS IN RESPONSES TO “TOT TOT WUK WUK” SIRENS
This study examines the use of language on social media as a means of expressing attitudes, emotions, and public evaluations of social phenomena. The focus of the research is on expressive speech acts found in the comment section of a Metro TV YouTube video titled “Fitra Eri Tanggapi Kendaraan Berstrobo Tot Tot Wuk Wuk.” The aim of this study is to describe the forms of expressive speech acts used by users in responding to the content. This research employs a qualitative approach with a content analysis method. The data consist of written utterances in the YouTube comment section that contain expressive speech acts. Data were collected through documentation techniques, including reading, recording, and identifying relevant comments. The data analysis was conducted by classifying the utterances based on types of expressive speech acts and interpreting their meanings within the context of digital communication. The results show that there are 50 instances of expressive speech acts, consisting of criticism (21 data), praise (17 data), expressions of gratitude (5 data), expressions of anger (4 data), condemnation (2 data), and congratulations (1 data). Meanwhile, forms such as apologizing and expressing condolences were not found. The dominance of critical expressions indicates that social media comment sections are often used as spaces to convey public evaluations of social issues.In conclusion, social media functions as a public communication space that enables individuals to express psychological attitudes, experiences, and perspectives on emerging social issues through various forms of expressive speech acts.

FEASIBILITY OF PICTURE STORYBOOK FOR READING COMPREHENSION IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
Despite growing recognition of the importance of contextual literacy media, there remains a significant gap in the availability of culturally grounded picture storybooks tailored to students in newly developed regions such as the Nusantara Capital City (IKN) area. This study aims to analyze the feasibility of the picture storybook “Langkah Kecil Eka di Ibu Kota Nusantara” as a learning medium to improve reading comprehension skills among fourth-grade elementary school students. A qualitative descriptive method was employed. Data were collected through passive participatory observation, in-depth interviews with nine participants (two fourth-grade teachers, one school principal, and six fourth-grade students), and documentation at SD Negeri 006 Sepaku, Sepaku District, North Penajam Paser Regency. Analysis was conducted systematically on four components content/material, language, illustration, and curriculum alignment using the interactive analysis model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña (2014), with data validity ensured through source and technical triangulation. The findings indicate that the book demonstrates high alignment with the Indonesian Language Learning Achievement for Phase B in the Merdeka Curriculum, incorporates contextual local wisdom values of IKN, and presents illustrations that support students’ inferential comprehension. This study contributes an evidence-based feasibility analysis of a locally situated literacy medium, offering a replicable framework for developing culturally responsive reading materials in under-resourced and newly established educational contexts across Indonesia.
ENHANCING PRE-SERVICE SPECIAL EDUCATION TEACHERS’ PEDAGOGICAL COMPETENCE IN TEACHING READING COMPREHENSION TO HEARING-IMPAIRED ELEMENTARY STUDENTS THROUGH FOTONOVELA MEDIA
Reading comprehension is a fundamental literacy skill that is essential for deaf or hard-of-hearing students to access academic information and participate in social life. However, limited auditory input and language development challenges often create barriers to understanding written texts. This study aimed to enhance the pedagogical competence of pre-service special education teachers in teaching reading comprehension to hearing-impaired students through the use of fotonovela media. The study employed a quasi-experimental design using a pretest–posttest non-equivalent control group approach and was conducted at SLB Pangudi Luhur and SLB Santi Rama as authentic learning contexts. The participants were pre-service special education teachers divided into experimental and control groups. The intervention involved training and teaching practice using fotonovela media integrating visual supports, the Indonesian Sign System (SIBI), and principles of the Maternal Reflective Method (MMR). Pretest results indicated that the initial competence levels of both groups were relatively equivalent, while posttest results showed a significant improvement in the experimental group. The use of fotonovela media significantly improved the pedagogical competence of pre-service teachers, particularly in instructional planning, visual strategies, language and communication support, adaptive teaching practices, and student engagement. The improvement in teacher competence contributed to the development of students’ reading comprehension skills, including vocabulary understanding, identifying main ideas, sequencing events, recognizing story elements, answering questions, making simple inferences, and summarizing texts. These findings indicate that fotonovela media is an innovative and sustainable approach to strengthening teachers’ pedagogical competence while supporting literacy development among deaf students.
