Hypothesis of the Research


In this research, the statistical hypotheses will be developed. The hypotheses will compare the performance of the experimental and control classes. The main objective is to determine whether the intervention significantly enhances writing skills.

1. Null Hypothesis (𝑯𝟎):

The null hypothesis states that there is no significant statistical difference in the writing skills for designing posters between the control and experimental classes after the intervention.
𝐻0: 𝜇1 = 𝜇2
Where 𝜇1 represents the mean of the writing score in the experimental class, and 𝜇2 represents the mean of the writing score in the control class. This hypothesis, therefore, reflects that using short animated videos does not significantly affect the students' writing skills when designing posters.

2. Alternative Hypothesis (𝐇𝟏):
Therefore, the alternative hypothesis would be that the statistical significance in the difference in the writing skills in designing posters between the control and experimental classes is significant after intervention.
𝐻1: 𝜇1 ≠ 𝜇2
This hypothesis makes it clear that with short animated videos, there is an effective improvement in students' abilities in designing posters; hence, there would be differences between the experimental and control classes.
These hypotheses will then be verified through statistical analyses, either the Independent Samples t-Test if the data is normally distributed, or the Mann-Whitney U Test in cases of no normality. The significance level will be set at 𝛼 = 0.05, which, which means that if the obtained p-value is less than 0.05, the null hypothesis will be rejected in favor of the alternative hypothesis.

Abstract

This study analyzes the language employed by Kompas, Republika, Media Indonesia, and Jawa Pos regarding the relocation of Indonesia’s capital city, focusing on attitude, graduation, and engagement. Eight online texts were analyzed using discourse analysis. This paper used systemic functional linguistics as a tool to analyze the texts. The findings revealed a predominance of positive attitude data (67.2% positive, 32.8% negative), predominantly heterogloss in engagement (91.8% heterogloss, 8.2% monogloss), and a majority of raising/sharpening graduation data (75.1% raising/sharpening, 24.9% lowering/softening). This disparity between positive and negative appraisal data signifies significant and contentious issues the government, community leaders, and the general public face concerning the capital city’s relocation. The results of news outlets analysis demonstrated how ideological orientations shape the construction of social and political values, influencing public beliefs and perceptions of the capital relocation project in Indonesia.

Title: Indian People Don't Do Crazy Crimes

You will never see an Indian person committing a crazy crime.

Like, when was the last time you heard of Indians robbing a bank?

First of all, Indian people are so nice and they're so sweet.

Eh, I can't see it. You know, you're gonna rob a bank.

You need authority. You need to come in their guns blazing.

I'll say it. Get your ass on the ground.

Now, I can't imagine.

Would you please take the money?

Why are you laughing?

I am talking to you.

Forget this. I'm out of here. I don't need this.

He gets in the car.

His partner's waiting for him.

Did you get the money?

They would not give me the money.

Did you show them the gun?

I showed them the gun!

We better leave. They want to call the police.

They're still laughing.

Where did you get the computer?

They thought I was tech support.


5. Then, categorize this content into searle illocutionary acts of directive, representative, verdictive/declarative, commisive and expressive:

Searle’s Illocutionary Acts consist of five primary types:

Directives – Attempts by the speaker to get the hearer to do something (e.g., requests, commands).

Representatives – Statements representing the speaker's beliefs (e.g., assertions, descriptions).

Commissives – Commit the speaker to future action (e.g., promises, threats).

Expressives – Express the speaker's psychological state or attitude.

Declaratives/Verdictives – Statements that change the world via their utterance (e.g., pronouncing someone guilty, resigning, declaring something open/closed).


6. The analysis:

1. Representatives (assertions, descriptions of belief):

- "You will never see an Indian person committing a crazy crime."

- "Like, when was the last time you heard of Indians robbing a bank?"

- "First of all, Indian people are so nice and they're so sweet."

- "I can’t see it."

- "They would not give me the money."

- "They thought I was tech support."

These are descriptive statements representing the speaker's beliefs or observations (even if exaggerated for comedic effect).

2. Directives (commands, requests):

- "Get your ass on the ground." – A mock command imitating a bank robber.

- "Would you please take the money?" – A sarcastic or humorous polite request.

- "Forget this." – An implicit self-directive or imperative.

- "I am talking to you." – Implied demand for attention.

3. Expressives (psychological states or attitudes):

- "Why are you laughing?"** – Shows confusion or frustration.

- "I don't need this." – Expresses annoyance or exasperation.

- "Eh, I can't see it." – Implicit disbelief or inability to imagine, also reflective.

 4. Commissives (commitments to future actions):

- "I'm out of here." – Expresses intent to leave, committing to an action.

5. Declaratives / Verdictives (change the state of affairs, judgment-like):

- There are no strong declaratives or verdictives in the traditional sense (like “I now pronounce…”), but one could stretch:

  - "We better leave." – Could be interpreted as a strategic decision (borderline commissive).

  - Still, this category isn’t strongly represented in this bit.

Empat poin positif orang Korea terhadap Pevoli Muslimah Indonesia, Megawati Hangestri Pertiwi

 Megawati Hangestri Pertiwi, pemain voli Indonesia yang bermain di Liga Voli Korea Selatan bersama Red Sparks, mendapat tanggapan positif dari masyarakat Korea Selatan terkait identitasnya sebagai Muslimah. Berikut adalah beberapa aspek yang menjadi sorotan:


### **Penggunaan Hijab**

Megawati menjadi satu-satunya atlet berhijab di Liga Voli Korea Selatan, sebuah hal yang menarik perhatian publik. Meski berbeda dari kebiasaan mayoritas di sana, hijab yang dikenakan Megawati tidak menghalangi performanya di lapangan. Bahkan, ia berhasil meraih penghargaan Most Valuable Player (MVP), menunjukkan bahwa hijab bukanlah penghalang bagi prestasi olahraga. Publik Korea Selatan, termasuk rekan-rekan setimnya, menunjukkan sikap hormat terhadap keputusan Megawati untuk tetap mengenakan hijab selama bertanding[1][2][3].

### **Makanan Halal**

Klub Red Sparks memberikan perhatian khusus terhadap kebutuhan Megawati sebagai seorang Muslim. Mereka menyediakan tanda khusus pada makanan yang mengandung babi di prasmanan klub, sehingga Megawati dapat dengan mudah memilih makanan halal. Klub juga memastikan kenyamanan Megawati dengan menyediakan alternatif makanan seperti topokki dan bibimbap, yang sesuai dengan ajaran Islam. Dukungan ini mencerminkan penghormatan terhadap keberagaman budaya dan agama dalam lingkungan olahraga internasional[4].

### ** Kebiasaannya duduk saat minum selama pertandingan. **

Megawati Hangestri Pertiwi, pemain voli Indonesia yang berkarier di Liga Voli Korea Selatan bersama klub Red Sparks, menarik perhatian publik Korea Selatan dengan kebiasaannya duduk saat minum selama pertandingan. Kebiasaan ini sering terlihat ketika ia duduk di bangku cadangan atau berlutut saat time-out sambil mendengarkan instruksi pelatih Ko Hee Jin. Dalam wawancara dengan media Korea KBS, Megawati menjelaskan bahwa kebiasaannya tersebut adalah bagian dari mengikuti sunnah Rasulullah SAW, yang menganjurkan untuk minum sambil duduk karena dianggap lebih baik menurut ajaran Islam[2][4].

Sebagai atlet berhijab pertama di Liga Voli Korea, Megawati sering menjadi sorotan, baik karena prestasinya yang gemilang maupun nilai-nilai yang ia bawa. Ia juga menegaskan bahwa keyakinannya tidak menghalangi kariernya sebagai atlet profesional. Selama dua musim bersama Red Sparks, Megawati berhasil membawa klubnya meraih berbagai pencapaian, termasuk menjadi runner-up di musim terakhirnya[1][2].

Kenapa dosen Indonesia lebih banyak menulis artikel jurnal daripada menulis buku ber-ISBN?

Jumlah buku ber-ISBN yang diterbitkan oleh dosen di Indonesia masih tergolong rendah jika dibandingkan dengan total jumlah dosen. Pada tahun 2021, tercatat hanya 1.674 judul buku ajar yang diterbitkan, meskipun angka ini meningkat dari tahun-tahun sebelumnya. Dengan total sekitar 296.040 dosen di Indonesia, artinya hanya sekitar 0,56% dari mereka yang berhasil menerbitkan buku ajar. Angka ini menunjukkan bahwa budaya penulisan buku di kalangan dosen masih belum begitu kuat.

Sebaliknya, publikasi jurnal ilmiah oleh dosen Indonesia jauh lebih tinggi. Saat ini terdapat sekitar 7.748 jurnal ilmiah terakreditasi di Indonesia yang jika masing-masing menerbitkan dua edisi per tahun dengan sepuluh artikel per edisi, maka ada sekitar 154.960 artikel ilmiah yang dipublikasikan tiap tahunnya. Fakta ini menggambarkan bahwa dosen lebih aktif menulis artikel jurnal dibandingkan buku, meskipun keduanya sama-sama merupakan bentuk kontribusi akademik.

Ada beberapa faktor utama yang menyebabkan dosen lebih memilih menulis artikel jurnal dibandingkan buku. Salah satunya adalah tuntutan kinerja dan penilaian jabatan fungsional. Dalam sistem penilaian angka kredit dosen, publikasi jurnal memiliki bobot yang lebih jelas dan mudah diukur. Buku ajar memang memiliki nilai tersendiri, namun proses penilaiannya lebih kompleks dan harus didukung bukti pemanfaatan.
