AI DEPENDENCY AND INDEPENDENT LEARNING: A SEQUENTIAL EXPLANATORY MIXED-METHODS ANALYSIS OF STUDENTS’ PERCEPTIONS IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE EDUCATION
ABSTRACT The advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology has driven significant changes in how students learn English, particularly in relation to the potential emergence of dependency on such technologies. AI tools such as grammar checkers, machine translation, and generative text platforms assist students in understanding materials and improving their language skills independently. This study aims to examine students’ perceptions of their dependency on AI in supporting independent English language learning. This research employs a mixed-methods approach, collecting data through questionnaires administered to 30 EFL students and semi-structured interviews with five purposively selected participants. The findings indicate that students appreciate the use of AI tools such as Grammarly, Google Translate, and ChatGPT for providing instant feedback, personalized learning experiences, and improved language proficiency. On the other hand, the findings also reveal a tendency toward dependency, which may reduce learners’ initiative in independent study if not properly managed. The study concludes that the use of AI can effectively support learner autonomy when applied responsibly, strategically, and in balance with conventional learning methods. This study provides insights for educational stakeholders in leveraging AI to promote independent learning and digital literacy. ABSTRAK Kemajuan teknologi Kecerdasan Buatan (Artificial Intelligence/AI) telah mendorong perubahan signifikan dalam cara mahasiswa mempelajari bahasa Inggris, khususnya terkait potensi munculnya ketergantungan dalam penggunaan teknologi tersebut. Alat-alat AI seperti pemeriksa tata bahasa, penerjemah otomatis, dan platform pembuat teks generatif membantu mahasiswa memahami materi serta meningkatkan keterampilan bahasa secara mandiri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji persepsi mahasiswa terhadap ketergantungan mereka pada AI dalam mendukung pembelajaran bahasa Inggris secara mandiri.

IMPLEMENTASI METODE RECIPROCAL TEACHING BERBASIS KECAKAPAN BERPIKIR KRITIS DALAM MENINGKATKAN PEMAHAMAN KONSEP AKIDAH AKHLAK
Learning Akidah Akhlak has an important role in shaping students' understanding of faith and moral behavior, but in practice the learning process is still often dominated by conventional methods centered on teachers so that student involvement and critical thinking skills have not developed optimally. This study aims to determine the implementation of the reciprocal teaching learning method based on critical thinking skills in improving students' understanding of the concept of Moral Faith. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive type of research. Data collection techniques are carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The results of the study show that the reciprocal teaching learning method is applied through four main stages, namely predicting, questioning, clarifying, and summarizing which encourage students to discuss, ask, and re-explain the material learned. Although the level of student activity is still relatively low, this method shows the potential in helping students understand the concept of Moral Faith through discussion activities, explaining material to each other, and clarifying understanding between students. Thus, the reciprocal teaching learning method can be an alternative learning strategy that supports improving students' understanding of concepts and critical thinking skills.
KRITIK SASTRA TERHADAP PERANG SEBAGAI TRADISI DALAM CERPEN AMA TOBI KONFLIK BATAS KAMPUNG KARYA SILVESTER PETARA HURIT (SOSIOLOGI SASTRA MARXISME)
Literary criticism functions scientifically to dissect the values ​​and moral messages in works through in-depth reading in order to understand the social reality depicted by the author. The focus of the problem in this research is to criticize the view of war as a tradition in the short story Ama Tobi: Conflict of Village Boundaries by Silvester Petara Hurit using the perspective of Marxist literary sociology. The important steps or stages of the research were carried out through qualitative descriptive procedures with content analysis techniques on data in the form of narratives and dialogues between characters who represent the economic basis and superstructure of society. The research findings reveal that the phenomenon of civil war in the Lamaholot region actually arose from the occupation and economic control of the colonialists who implemented divide and rule politics for capitalist profit. The attitude of considering violence as a noble tradition is considered a cultural arrogance that is very counterproductive because it ignores human rights. Empirically, the practice of physical warfare has been proven to only cause collective trauma, resentment between clans that is difficult to break, and social divisions that are detrimental to the order of living together. The main conclusion emphasizes that war is not an effective solution in resolving modern agrarian conflicts. The best legacy of tradition should be restored to community-strengthening values ​​such as deliberation and consensus, mutual cooperation, respect for ancestors, and peaceful dispute resolution mechanisms to achieve sustainable social harmony for all levels of Indonesian society, leading to greater prosperity.
INTEGRASI CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE TEACHING PADA MODEL PROBLEM-BASED LEARNING: DAMPAKNYA TERHADAP KETERLIBATAN SISWA DALAM PEMBELAJARAN PENDIDIKAN AGAMA ISLAM
This study aims to examine the impact of integrating the Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT) approach into the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model on student engagement in Islamic Education (PAI). The primary issue addressed is the low level of student engagement caused by the dominance of conventional methods and a lack of relevance between the material and the students' cultural backgrounds. Utilizing a Quasi-Experimental design with a Posttest-Only Control Group Design, this research involved 69 tenth-grade students at SMKN 8 Bandar Lampung, divided into a control group (36 students) and an experimental group (33 students). Data on student engagement were collected using a questionnaire instrument (15 items, Cronbach's Alpha α = 0,782) and analyzed using an independent sample t-test. The results of the analysis showed a t-value of t = -4,925 with a significance of 0,000 (p < 0,05), and a Mean Difference of 6.414. These findings confirm a significant difference, where the class implementing the PBL-CRT integration demonstrated higher engagement levels compared to the control group. The synergy between problem-solving in PBL and the cultural aspects of CRT is proven to create a more interactive, contextual, and meaningful learning experience. The novelty of this research lies in the integrative application of these two models within the context of Islamic Education at the vocational school (SMK) level. Practically, this study provides a guide for teachers in designing innovative learning strategies capable of enhancing both student engagement and religious understanding in the contemporary era.

The implementation of IPS learning strategies based on a contextual approach and the integration of local wisdom has proven highly effective in strengthening students' personalities from an early age. However, significant obstacles were found in the form of low synergy between schools and parents and teachers' limited understanding of the holistic concept of character. The main conclusion emphasizes that optimizing the role of teachers through pedagogical innovation in social studies classes is a crucial tool for producing an intellectually intelligent and morally resilient generation. Cross-sector synergy is essential to ensure national education can sustainably face the dynamics of the global era for the nation's progress. ABSTRAK Era globalisasi menghadirkan tantangan kompleks bagi pembentukan identitas siswa sekolah dasar akibat derasnya arus informasi yang tidak tersaring. Fokus utama penelitian ini adalah menganalisis peran strategis guru dalam menanamkan nilai karakter melalui pembelajaran Ilmu Pengetahuan Sosial (IPS) untuk mendukung tercapainya Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 4 mengenai pendidikan berkualitas. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode studi literatur dengan meninjau tiga belas sumber ilmiah terpilih dari periode 2020 hingga 2026. Tahapan penelitian meliputi penetapan fokus kajian, penelusuran artikel jurnal nasional bereputasi, analisis konten secara mendalam, serta sintesis hasil dalam bentuk narasi deskriptif-analitis. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa guru memiliki fungsi vital sebagai teladan, motivator, sekaligus fasilitator dalam menginternalisasi nilai kejujuran, kedisiplinan, tanggung jawab, dan kepedulian sosial siswa. Implementasi strategi pembelajaran IPS yang berbasis pada pendekatan kontekstual dan integrasi kearifan lokal terbukti sangat efektif dalam memperkuat kepribadian siswa sejak usia dini. Meskipun demikian, ditemukan kendala signifikan berupa rendahnya sinergi antara pihak sekolah dengan orang tua serta terbatasnya pemahaman guru mengenai konsep karakter yang holistik. Simpulan utama menegaskan bahwa optimalisasi peran guru melalui inovasi pedagogis di kelas IPS merupakan instrumen krusial untuk mencetak generasi yang cerdas secara intelektual dan tangguh secara moral. Sinergitas lintas sektor sangat diperlukan untuk memastikan pendidikan nasional mampu menghadapi dinamika zaman global secara berkelanjutan bagi kemajuan bangsa.

PENINGKATAN KEMAMPUAN LITERASI BAHASA SISWA MELALUI PROGRAM 10 MENIT MEMBACA DI AWAL PEMBELAJARAN PADA KELAS II SD
The low language literacy skills of second-grade students at Muhammadiyah 1 Limboto Elementary School, characterized by a lack of reading fluency and comprehension of reading content, became the background of this study. The focus of the problem was directed at efforts to improve literacy through the implementation of a ten-minute reading program at the beginning of the lesson. This study used the Classroom Action Research model of Kemmis and McTaggart which was implemented in two cycles, including the planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages of 28 research subjects. Data collection was carried out through activity observations, reading ability tests, and documentation studies. The research findings showed a significant increase in students' literacy competencies gradually. Quantitatively, in the first cycle, 21 students or 75% had achieved the success criteria, then this number increased drastically in the second cycle to 26 students or 93%. In addition to the numerical aspect, students also showed positive developments in pronunciation accuracy, intonation, and enthusiasm for independent reading that were more consistent compared to the initial conditions. The main conclusion confirms that the ten-minute reading program at the beginning of the lesson has proven to be very effective in boosting elementary school students' language literacy skills. This habituation strategy is able to build a culture of enjoyable literacy while strengthening the cognitive foundation of students in understanding text information critically and accurately for their academic success through an inclusive and well-planned education system. ABSTRAK Rendahnya kemampuan literasi bahasa pada siswa kelas II SD Muhammadiyah 1 Limboto, yang ditandai dengan kurangnya kelancaran membaca dan pemahaman isi bacaan, menjadi latar belakang penelitian ini.

UPAYA KOLABORASI WALI SANTRI DENGAN GURU AL-QUR’AN DALAM PENINGKATAN HAFALAN DI KUTTAB DARUL ULUM BANJARNEGARA
This study examines the collaboration between parents (wali santri) and Qur’an teachers in supporting students’ memorization achievement at Kuttab Darul Ulum Banjarnegara. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed to capture the phenomenon within its natural context. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and observations, involving Qur’an teachers, parents, and the head of the kuttab as key informants. The data were analyzed through stages of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, with triangulation applied to ensure the credibility of the findings. The findings indicate that collaboration is carried out through direct communication, the use of online communication platforms, and the utilization of a mutaba’ah book as a connecting medium between teachers and parents. The mutaba’ah book functions not only as a communication tool but also as an instrument for monitoring and evaluating students’ memorization progress. This practice contributes to maintaining the continuity of learning between the kuttab and home environments. However, its effectiveness is influenced by varying levels of parental involvement, time constraints, and differences in understanding of how to support children’s memorization processes. This study concludes that effective collaboration requires consistent communication, active parental participation, and well-structured institutional support. Therefore, strengthening collaborative practices through parental guidance programs and the development of a more integrated monitoring system is strongly recommended. ABSTRAK Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji secara mendalam praktik kolaborasi antara wali santri dan guru Al-Qur’an dalam mendukung peningkatan hafalan santri di Kuttab Darul Ulum Banjarnegara. Pendekatan yang digunakan adalah kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus, sehingga memungkinkan peneliti memahami fenomena secara kontekstual. Data penelitian diperoleh melalui wawancara mendalam dan observasi lapangan dengan melibatkan guru Al-Qur’an, wali santri, dan kepala kuttab sebagai sumber informasi utama. Proses analisis dilakukan melalui tahapan reduksi data, penyajian, serta penarikan kesimpulan, dengan menerapkan triangulasi guna menjamin keabsahan temuan. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kolaborasi terbangun melalui interaksi langsung, pemanfaatan media komunikasi daring, serta penggunaan buku mutaba’ah sebagai sarana penghubung antara pihak kuttab dan keluarga. Buku mutaba’ah tidak hanya berperan sebagai media penyampaian informasi, tetapi juga sebagai alat untuk memantau sekaligus mengevaluasi perkembangan hafalan santri secara berkelanjutan. Praktik ini berkontribusi dalam menjaga kesinambungan proses pembelajaran antara lingkungan kuttab dan rumah. Meskipun demikian, pelaksanaannya belum sepenuhnya optimal, karena masih dipengaruhi oleh variasi tingkat keterlibatan wali santri, keterbatasan waktu, serta pemahaman yang belum merata terkait pendampingan hafalan. Berdasarkan temuan tersebut, dapat disimpulkan bahwa keberhasilan kolaborasi memerlukan komunikasi yang konsisten, partisipasi aktif wali santri, serta dukungan sistem yang terorganisasi dengan baik. Oleh karena itu, penguatan pola kolaborasi melalui program pembinaan bagi wali santri serta pengembangan sistem monitoring yang lebih terpadu menjadi langkah yang perlu dipertimbangkan.

ANALISIS FAKTOR INTERNAL YANG MEMPENGARUHI SIKAP DAN PERILAKU PESERTA DIDIK KELAS V DALAM MENGAMALKAN NILAI PANCASILA DI SEKOLAH DASAR
This study was motivated by the gap between students’ understanding of Pancasila values and their actual behavior in daily school life. Students are generally able to memorize the principles of Pancasila, but have not fully implemented them in attitudes and behavior. This study aims to analyze internal factors influencing the attitudes and behavior of fifth-grade students in practicing Pancasila values in elementary school and to describe the forms of implementation. This study used a qualitative descriptive approach. The research was conducted at SDN 133/I Pasar Terusan. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis techniques included data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that internal factors influencing the practice of Pancasila values include self-awareness, intrinsic motivation, understanding of values, and self-control. The forms of practicing Pancasila values were reflected in cooperation, social care, discipline, responsibility, and respect for others’ opinions. However, these practices were not consistently carried out by all students. Therefore, internal factors play an important role in shaping students’ attitudes and behavior in practicing Pancasila values.
