2025-06-22T07:09:59+07:00

Smart courses, being the effective tool for education equity, are faced with high dropout. This study investigates the factors affecting the complete of the smart courses of economically disadvantaged undergraduates from the psychology drive perspective. Nvivo tool was used to encode the screened 392 literature from Web of Science and the Engineering Index to explore the generic relationship among free nodes. According to the Theory of Planned Behavior, 17 hypotheses and corresponding Structural Equation Modeling were established, and 257 valid questionnaires（age of participants from 19 to 24）were collected for analyzing, and experts were invited to do an interview. The results indicated that behavioral attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control all had significant positive effects on students’ intention to engage in sustainable learning. Among them, perceived behavioral control demonstrated the strongest path coefficient (β = 0.499, p < 0.001), highlighting students’ self-efficacy and perceived resource controllability as key driving forces in promoting continuous learning. Although the effects of behavioral attitude (β = 0.343, p < 0.001) and subjective norms (β = 0.274, p < 0.001) were relatively weaker, the clarity of learning goals, expectations from others, and social support still played a positive role in motivating learning engagement. Different from the conventional view, this paper finds out that the most effective point is perceived behavioral control instead of attitudes for economically disadvantaged undergraduates for persistent learning behavior. This study provides a novel perspective on explaining economically disadvantaged undergraduates' sustainable smart courses learning behavior and offers practical recommendations to enhance course completion rates.

The “I” and selfhood in a collection of poetry on personal things: Symbolic Barthesian Studies

2025-06-17T13:36:59+07:00

This study explores how children's ego and selfhood are portrayed in the poetry collection Hal yang Pribadi by M. Fatan DZ. The book was selected because its poems present children's voices in a unique and reflective manner. The research employs Roland Barthes’ theory of symbolic semiotics, particularly the concepts of denotation, connotation, and myth, to examine how meaning is constructed through words, imagery, and symbols in the poems. The analysis reveals that the narrative voice of “I” in the anthology is not neutral. Children’s identities in the poems are often shaped by social values such as family norms, gender roles, and adult expectations. The “I” in the poetry emerges as a figure in the process of self-formation yet is also guided by the symbolic systems embedded in language. This study concludes that children's poetry does more than convey beauty and moral messages—it serves as a symbolic space in which children's identities are negotiated and represented in relation to the surrounding world.

AI-assisted design of microlearning media for basic japanese grammar

2025-06-28T19:40:53+07:00

The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of AI-assisted microlearning-based instructional videos for teaching Basic Japanese Grammar 1 (Bunpou I) at Universitas Negeri Jakarta. This research addresses the persistent challenge of limited classroom time and the lack of accessible, engaging self-study resources for first-semester Japanese learners, who often struggle with unfamiliar scripts and complex grammar structures. Recognizing the learning preferences of Generation Z—who favor short, visually rich, and technology-driven content—this study integrates Artificial Intelligence tools into the instructional design process to develop concise, focused explainer videos. Employing a Research and Development (R&D) methodology based on the PPE model (Planning, Production, Evaluation), the study involved syllabus analysis, AI-assisted media production, and expert validation, followed by a preliminary student trial. The instructional video received high feasibility scores from both media (3.62) and content experts (3.60), and student feedback indicated improved comprehension and engagement. The novelty of this study lies in its systematic integration of AI tools—such as Gemini AI, Canva Magic Media, and D-ID AI—for storyboard generation, visual content creation, and narration. The findings suggest that this AI-integrated microlearning model offers a scalable and effective instructional design framework for foreign language education, particularly for beginner learners in digital learning environments.

2025-06-29T20:50:56+07:00

This research aims to examine the role of teachers in improving students' digital literacy in the 21st-century learning era through the library research method. The results of the study show that teachers play an important role as facilitators, motivators, and supervisors in developing students' ability to access, evaluate, and use digital information critically and ethically. Strategies such as blended learning and the use of digital media have proven effective in increasing student engagement. However, challenges such as limited infrastructure and a lack of teacher training remain major obstacles. This study recommends the need for cross-sectoral collaboration to support the strengthening of digital literacy through systematic integration in the educational curriculum.
