Unpacking the Lyrics: An Analysis of Meaning and Message in Prom Queen by Beach Bunny
type: item
description: This study provides a semantic analysis of Prom Queen by Beach Bunny, examining the meaning and message conveyed through its lyrics, metaphors, and symbolism. The song explores themes of self-worth, body image, and societal pressure, particularly the unrealistic beauty standards imposed on individuals.

Exploring Connotation in 'Scars to Your Beautiful' by Alessia Cara: A Semantic Perspective
type: item
description: This study analyzes the connotative meanings in the lyrics of Scars to Your Beautiful by Alessia Cara, exploring how the song communicates messages of self-acceptance, empowerment, and resistance against societal beauty standards through connotative language. Using a semantic analysis approach, the study identifies three primary themes: self-worth and empowerment, the rejection of societal beauty ideals, and the symbolism of scars as a representation of personal growth and resilience.

The findings highlight the role of song lyrics as a powerful tool for social commentary, promoting body positivity and challenging traditional beauty norms. This research contributes to the understanding of how connotation in song lyrics shapes listeners' emotional and social perceptions, and underscores the importance of self-acceptance in contemporary cultural discourse.

Unpacking the Relationship between Social Media and Social Anxiety in Millennials
type: item
description: This study investigates the relationship between social media use and social anxiety among millennials. Using a correlational research design, the study explores how different types of social media engagement—passive use, active use, social comparison, and self-presentation—relate to levels of social anxiety. A total of 500 millennials participated in the study, with data collected through an online survey that included the Social Interaction Anxiety Scale (SIAS) and questions about social media usage patterns. The results revealed a strong positive correlation between passive social media use and social anxiety, while active use showed a weak negative correlation with social anxiety. Social comparison and self-presentation were significant predictors of social anxiety. The findings highlight the complex relationship between social media engagement and mental health, suggesting that passive social media use exacerbates social anxiety, while active engagement may mitigate its effects.

From Lyrics to Understanding: The Role of Songs in Improving Students' Listening Abilities
type: item
description: This study explores the impact of using songs on improving students' listening comprehension skills in an English language learning context. The research employed a mixed-methods design, combining both quantitative and qualitative approaches to evaluate the effectiveness of songs in enhancing listening abilities. A total of 50 secondary school students participated, divided into an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group was exposed to song-based listening exercises, while the control group engaged in traditional listening activities. Pre-tests and post-tests were administered to assess improvements in listening comprehension, and interviews and classroom observations were conducted to gather qualitative insights. The results showed a significant improvement in the listening comprehension scores of the experimental group, with a marked increase in their ability to identify key information, understand context, and recognize spoken words and phrases. The control group, on the other hand, showed limited improvement. Qualitative data revealed that students in the experimental group found the song-based exercises engaging and enjoyable, which contributed to higher motivation and better retention of language concepts. Songs, particularly with varying tempos and genres, provided students with authentic language input and exposed them to different speech patterns, further enhancing their listening skills. This study highlights the effectiveness of songs in improving listening comprehension and suggests that incorporating songs into language teaching can foster a more engaging and motivating learning environment. The findings also emphasize the need for careful song selection to align with students’ language proficiency and interests. Further research is recommended to examine the long-term effects of song-based listening exercises and explore the influence of song characteristics on different aspects of listening comprehension.

Metaphors, Similes, and Symbols: A Semantic Exploration of Blank Space by Taylor Swift
type: item
description: This study conducts a semantic exploration of the figurative language used in Taylor Swift's Blank Space, focusing on metaphors, similes, and symbols to uncover the deeper meanings embedded in the song's lyrics. Through a detailed analysis, the study reveals how these figurative devices contribute to the song’s emotional depth, narrative complexity, and social commentary. The metaphor of the "blank space" symbolizes both the emptiness left by failed relationships and the possibility of reinvention, while similes such as "Love’s a game, wanna play?" portray the unpredictability and emotional tension of love. The symbolism of the "prom queen" critiques societal expectations surrounding beauty and romantic success. This research highlights how Swift uses figurative language not only to express personal emotions but also to challenge cultural norms, offering a nuanced reflection on love, identity, and media perceptions. The findings of this study contribute to the understanding of figurative language in popular music, particularly in the context of Taylor Swift’s work, and open avenues for further research on the role of metaphor, symbolism, and simile in contemporary music.

Students’ Challenges in Learning Listening Skills Using the Edpuzzle Application
type: item
description: Listening is an important component of language acquisition since it helps to hear spoken language, expand vocabulary, and improve pronunciation and grammar comprehension. As a receptive skill, listening serves as the foundation of effective communication and is crucial in supporting learners’ overall English proficiency. However, many students keep having difficulties in developing this ability, including focus issues, strange accents, and a lack of confidence. To overcome these issues, technology–based learning solutions such as Edpuzzle have been developed. This study investigates students’ challenges in developing listening skills using the Edpuzzle application. Utilizing a descriptive quantitative method with a questionnaire as the primary instrument, data were collected from 30 eleventh-grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Tanjung Raja. The findings indicate that most students did not face significant technical or cognitive difficulties; affective challenges and issues related to application features were more prominent. Notably, many students lacked confidence in their listening abilities despite finding Edpuzzle engaging and motivating.

Netizen Narratives of Hate: A Pragmatic Analysis of Insulting Comments in Putri Padang’s TikTok
type: item
description: This study examines the pragmatic features of insults in the comment sections of TikTok videos posted by Putri Padang, a popular Indonesian content creator. Using a qualitative approach, the research analyzes the types of insults, the pragmatic strategies used by netizens, and the social functions of these insults. Drawing on speech act theory, politeness theory, and impoliteness theory, the study categorizes insults as direct or indirect and identifies strategies such as sarcasm, hyperbole, and face-threatening acts (FTAs). The findings reveal that insults on TikTok serve not only as expressions of hostility but also as tools for social bonding and status assertion within the comment section. TikTok's platform features, such as viral content promotion and easy commenting, contribute to the heightened prevalence of aggressive language. The study concludes that digital platforms like TikTok create unique environments where insults function as complex social acts, involving both individual expression and group dynamics. This research highlights the importance of understanding online communication in shaping public discourse and suggests avenues for future studies on digital aggression across various platforms.

The Power of Words and Silence: A Language Style Analysis of John Wick
type: item
description: This study analyzes the language style in the action film John Wick (2014), focusing on the use of minimalist dialogue, silence, and non-verbal communication as key narrative tools. By examining the film through linguistic, semiotic, and narrative lenses, the research explores how the restrained use of language contributes to character development, emotional engagement, and thematic exploration, particularly the themes of vengeance, justice, and sacrifice. The results highlight how the film’s sparse dialogue and strategic silences enhance the portrayal of the protagonist’s emotional isolation and internal conflict. Additionally, the study emphasizes the role of non-verbal communication in conveying the protagonist’s psychological state and moral dilemmas. This research fills a gap in existing literature by examining the underexplored area of minimalist language use in action cinema and contributes to a deeper understanding of how language, silence, and non-verbal cues can work together to enhance the cinematic experience.

Student Demotivation In Speaking Classes: A Systematic Literature Review Study
type: item
description: This systematic literature review investigates key factors contributing to the decline of student motivation in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) speaking classes. Based on 30 peer-reviewed studies from 2015 to 2024, the review identifies four recurring themes: psychological barriers, teaching strategies, social dynamics, and institutional or technological challenges. Guided by Self-Determination Theory (SDT), it explores how unmet needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness negatively impact learners' willingness to speak in class. The review also addresses recent developments, such as the influence of online learning environments in the post-pandemic era. These digital shifts have introduced both opportunities and obstacles for student engagement. Despite offering useful insights, many of the reviewed studies have limitations, including small participant numbers and a lack of longitudinal data.

Student Anxiety Factors In Speaking Courses
type: item
description: This study explores speaking anxiety as one of the most significant affective factors influencing EFL learners' performance in English-speaking classrooms. Guided by the Foreign Language Anxiety (FLA) framework developed by Horwitz et al. (1986), this research investigates students' emotional reactions to speaking tasks. Using a Likert-scale questionnaire containing ten items, the study analyzed students' responses to various speaking scenarios. Findings show that learners experience the greatest anxiety before class begins and during spontaneous speaking situations. These results confirm the importance of recognizing speaking anxiety in designing emotionally responsive language instruction. The paper concludes by emphasizing that teaching strategies must address emotional well-being alongside linguistic proficiency to improve classroom engagement and communication performance.

The Influence Of Cultural Differences On Students’ Learning Styles
type: item
description: This study uses a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) technique to investigate how cultural diversity affects students' learning styles in a multicultural university setting. The study emphasizes how cultural backgrounds—including early school experiences, norms, beliefs, and traditions—affect kids' preferences for different learning modes. Finding trends across cultural contexts and offering insights into culturally sensitive teaching methods are the goals of the study. According to PRISMA standards, a total of 20 peer-reviewed articles from 2015 to 2024 were chosen. The publications used a range of methodologies, including mixed methods, qualitative, quantitative, and theoretical approaches, and they covered a number of nations, including the US, China, Turkey, Mongolia, and Indonesia. According to the review, students from individualist cultures—like the US—tend to favor independent and exploratory learning styles, whereas students from collectivist cultures—like China and Indonesia—tend to choose collaborative and structured learning environments. Additionally, the survey found that different ethnic groups, including Papuan and Flores students, had different preferences for learning styles within Indonesia. These results highlight the value of culturally sensitive teaching strategies for a range of student demographics. By proposing suggestions for future inclusive teaching methods and a thorough map of cultural influences on learning, this work advances the disciplines of educational psychology and multicultural pedagogy.

A Systematic Literature Review Of Efl Students’ Positive Self-Concept In Digital Reading Comprehension
type: item
description: This study aims to synthesize the main characteristics of EFL students with a positive self-concept in digital reading comprehension. Previous studies have not addressed these characteristics in a focused and systematic way, especially in the context of digital media. Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, this study analyzed the selected articles through the PRISMA framework and CIMO logic. The findings revealed four main characteristics of EFL students with a positive self-concept: confidence in their own abilities, high motivation, emotional stability, and use of strategies in learning and reading. These characteristics are considered important to support students' success in comprehending digital texts. Moreover, the presence of a positive self-concept seems to affect not only cognitive but also emotional engagement with reading materials. The study concludes that understanding these key characteristics can help educators design more effective digital reading instruction that can foster students' self-concept, increase motivation, and improve their overall reading comprehension outcomes.

The Effectiveness of Games-Based Learning Digital In English Learning: Approach to Increase Student Motivation
type: item
description: Game-based learning (GBL) is a highly innovative approach to increasing student engagement and motivation in the educational environment during class. There are many types of game-based learning, including Kahoot! Educaplay, Quizizz, Wordwall, which are digital-based as well as non-digital forms such as posters, role-playing games, flashcards, puzzles. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of game-based learning to improve students' skills and motivation in learning English. This study uses a systematic literature review method to determine the effectiveness of game-based learning in learning and the impact that it has on students' motivation to learn. The findings are based on common patterns in GBL research. Game-based learning (GBL) is effective in increasing students' motivation in learning English, with an average effect size of 0.75 (meta-analysis). GBL increased student engagement by 25-30% and vocabulary/grammar test scores by 10-20%. Duration and frequency of GBL use were positively correlated with motivation (r=0.68), but challenges such as teacher training and technology access need to be addressed.

A Systematic Literature Review: The Impact Of Inclusive Schools On Mental Health
type: item
description: Nowadays, it is common to find children with special needs who are educated in the same school as other children. There are already several inclusive schools that can accept early childhood children with special needs without separating them from their peers. However, the learning process in inclusive schools has had a significant impact on students' mental health. This study used a systematic literature review (SLR) to identify and analyze the positive and negative impacts of inclusive schools on students' mental health.The first step was to define the research question (RQ) and then search several types of sources published in popular journal databases from 2013-2025.As a result of the review of selected articles, there are positive impacts of inclusive schools on students' mental health, such as increasing self-confidence and independence, reducing stigma and social isolation, improving social skills and empathy, and promoting tolerance and acceptance. Meanwhile, there are also negative impacts of inclusive schools such as discomfort and feelings of inadequacy, adjustment difficulties, as well as disruptive behavior and classroom disruption.

A Systematic Literature Review on Influence of Social and Cultural Identity on EFL Reading Comprehension
type: item
description: This systematic literature review explores the influence of social and cultural identity on EFL (English as a Foreign Language) reading comprehension. The review synthesizes findings from ten peer-reviewed journal articles published between 2015 and 2025, selected through a structured search process and analyzed using inductive content analysis. The results indicate that learners’ cultural identity significantly impacts their reading comprehension, particularly when reading materials align with their own cultural backgrounds. Culturally familiar texts enhance motivation, engagement, and comprehension by activating prior knowledge and validating learners' experiences. Conversely, texts that are culturally unfamiliar or misaligned may hinder understanding and reduce motivation. The review also emphasizes the importance of social identity and self-perception, such as self-esteem and a sense of belonging, in shaping learners' reading development. This study highlights the need for culturally responsive teaching approaches that recognize the diverse identities of EFL learners, promoting both language proficiency and intercultural awareness.
