However, many schools still use conventional learning models such as the lecture method, which often makes students passive and afraid to ask questions, thereby reducing their learning outcomes. In the modern era, </em>hypnoteaching <em>has emerged as an innovative approach that is believed to be more effective. This research explores the effectiveness of hypnoteaching in learning Javanese at the junior high school level. The type of research used was an experiment with a posttest-only control group design. The research subjects were class IX students at SMP Negeri 10 Salatiga, where class IX G was the experimental group that applied hypnoteaching, while class IX E was the control group using the conventional model. The results showed that the average post-test score for the experimental group was 81.29, while the control group was only 58.06. Analysis using the T-test shows a significant value of p = 0.000 (α < 0.05), which shows that hypnoteaching is more effective in improving student learning achievement compared to conventional models. However, it's important to note that this study has some limitations, such as the small sample size and the specific context of Javanese language learning, which may affect the generalizability of the results.</em></p>2025-03-01T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Eliza Naviana Damayanti, Joko Sukoyohttps://publikasi.dinus.ac.id/index.php/lite/article/view/12260Driving development2025-02-04T19:18:10+00:00Stedi Wardoyostedi.wardoyo.ugm@gmail.com<p>This study examines the historical development and implications of Japanese Indonesian cooperation in the automotive sector. While bilateral relations between these nations encompass multiple industries, the automotive sector, particularly passenger vehicles, represents a critical engagement area. The research employs a qualitative, descriptive methodology to analyze this economic relationship. Despite Indonesia's diverse industrial landscape—spanning manufacturing, fisheries, maritime resources, forestry, automotive production, and mining—the automotive sector has emerged as one of the country's top ten export commodities. Japan, a global leader in automotive manufacturing, has actively pursued bilateral cooperation in this sector. However, Indonesia's challenges in meeting established targets have hindered the full realization of planned initiatives. The study reveals an asymmetric relationship characterized by Indonesia's growing dependence on Japan's automotive industry. This dependency is evidenced by several key indicators: escalating imports from Japan, relatively low Indonesian export values, substantial Japanese investment flows, and the dominant market presence of Japanese manufacturers like Toyota and Nissan. As a result, Indonesia has primarily evolved into a significant consumer market for Japanese automotive products rather than developing as an independent manufacturer. Critically, this study finds how bilateral cooperation between Japan and Indonesia, while offering certain benefits, has simultaneously strengthened patterns of economic dependency in the Indonesian automotive sector.</p>2025-03-01T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Stedi Wardoyohttps://publikasi.dinus.ac.id/index.php/lite/article/view/11727The essential meaning of Maantat tradition in Ladang Panjang Village, Sarolangun Regency, Jambi, Indonesia2024-11-24T09:16:11+00:00Nur Amilia Kartika Rahminuramiliakartikarahmi@gmail.comWirdanengsih Wirdanengsihwirdanengsih69@yahoo.com<p>Maantat is one of the ancestral traditions of the Malay tribe, and it is still preserved in the Jambi region, Sumatra. The Malay people in Jambi practice this tradition on important days, such as Islamic religious holidays and weddings. This study aimed to determine the meaning or important values in implementing the Maantat tradition that make this tradition sustainable until now. The method used is descriptive qualitative with an ethnographic approach. Data collection techniques use observation and interview techniques. The study was conducted in Ladang Panjang Village, Sarolangun, Jambi. This study found that Maantat is a tradition of delivering food in containers (rantang) to relatives during critical events. The essential values contained in it are fostering a sense of togetherness and solidarity, the manifestation of gratitude, and respect for elders and customs, all of which are manifestations of the noble values of Indonesian society that prioritize relationships between individuals, spirituality, and respect for tradition.</p>2025-03-01T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Nur Amilia Kartika Rahmi, Wirdanengsih Wirdanengsihhttps://publikasi.dinus.ac.id/index.php/lite/article/view/11411Names of buildings and places in the Alun-Alun Lor and Sasana Suméwa Complex of Surakarta Hadiningrat Sunanate Palace2024-10-18T15:04:24+00:00Sindhu Linguistika Manumanasaslmanumanasa04@gmail.com<p>Naming is the process of naming or identifying something, be it an item, person, place, or concept. It is an essential part of human language and communication as it allows us to convey information, distinguish people from one another, and refer to things in writing or conversation. However, naming can become more complex and varied as culture and language evolve. In Keraton Kasunanan Surakarta Hadiningrat, names that reflect Javanese culture are used to name places and buildings. In the naming process, factors such as language, culture, and history should be considered. This research aims to describe the naming process and explain the morphological process that occurs in the names of buildings and places in the Alun-Alun Lor and Sasana Suméwa complexes. The source of data and data in this study are the names of buildings and places in the <em>Alun-Alun Lor</em> and <em>Sasana Suméwa</em> complexes of Surakarta Hadiningrat Sunanate Palace. The data were collected using observation methods with note and listening techniques, interview methods, and document analysis. The results showed 22 names of buildings and places in <em>Alun-Alun Lor</em> and <em>Sasana Suméwa</em> complexes, consisting of 14 names in <em>Alun-Alun Lor</em> complex and 8 names in <em>Sasana Suméwa</em> complex</p>2025-03-01T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Sindhu Linguistika Manumanasahttps://publikasi.dinus.ac.id/index.php/lite/article/view/11825Zoo-semiotics in the short story Animals as a medium for criticism and reflection2025-02-05T17:39:13+00:00Indah Fadhillakudhill.if@gmail.comRouli Esther Pasariburouliesther@ui.ac.id<p>This research analyzes the short story “Sesat Pikir Para Binatang” by Triyanto Triwikromo using a zoo-semiotic approach from Thomas Albert Sebeok, who studies the role of animals as signs in human symbolic communication. The animals in this short story not only function as characters in the story, but also as a reflection of human identity to convey criticism of anthropocentrism and a reflection of human morality. By using zoo-semiotic theory, this research reveals that e zoo narrative in the short story is an allegory of human life, which is full of hierarchy, contradiction, and manipulation. Animal characteristics are seen as ethograms that can be interpreted symbolically. The symbolism of animals, such as elephants, worms, and other creatures, reflects the weaknesses of humans who often project their nature and internal conflicts onto animals. This research contributes to the study of contemporary Indonesian literature and expands the application of zoo-semiotics in literary studies, especially in exploring the relationship between humans and animals.</p> <p>Keywords<em>: </em>zoo-semiotics; ethogram; animal symbolism; anthropocentric; hierarchy; morality</p>2025-03-01T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Indah Fadhilla, Rouli Esther Pasaribuhttps://publikasi.dinus.ac.id/index.php/lite/article/view/11824Questioning power and identity2025-01-29T06:47:37+00:00Hamjah Dihakontak@hamjahdiha.orgAbdul Wahabaw121283@gmail.comZulkarnain Zulkarnainkarnaenzul1990@gmail.com<p>This study examines the discourse of identity politics, focusing on race and class, in local literary texts, specifically in the novel Tambora 1815 by Paox Iben Mudhaffar. Through a cultural studies perspective, the research explores how racial and class identities are represented, constructed, and sustained in local literature, as well as their impact on political and social discourse in Indonesia, particularly in Bima. A qualitative method using literature review and textual interpretation techniques, including repeated reading, data classification, and symbol analysis, was employed, with triangulation for validation. The findings reveal that identity politics in local literary texts can serve as both a tool of resistance against marginalization and a potential source of essentialism and further oppression. The novel reflects and challenges power hierarchies related to race and class, showcasing social inequality and the influence of dominant powers over marginalized groups. This research contributes by providing new insights into the dynamics of power and identity in Indonesian society, offering a critical analysis that encourages further exploration of identity politics in other local literary works</p>2025-03-01T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Hamjah Diha, Abdul Wahab, Zulkarnain Zulkarnainhttps://publikasi.dinus.ac.id/index.php/lite/article/view/11624Learning outcome-based education through the application of project-based learning methods in teaching American life and institutions courses to produce creative and collaborative skills2024-10-29T16:06:54+00:00Sarif Syamsu Rizalsarif.syamsu.rizal@dsn.dinus.ac.idFebri Dhany Triwibowofebri.dhany@dsn.dinus.ac.id<p>This article is based on the Indonesian government's policy regarding learning outcome-based education in higher education curricula.

This research used a qualitative content analysis approach based on the framing theory developed by William A Gamson. The data were obtained from news articles that discussed the Sinwar death incident and Hamas' response to the event. The results of the analysis show that the framing devices in the reporting of Yahya Sinwar's death in both <em>France24</em> and <em>Al-Hurroh</em> media consist of metaphors, catchphrases, examples, depictions, and visual images. In contrast, the reasoning device consists of a root, appeal to principle and consequences. The use of these framing and reasoning devices shows that in the reporting of Yahya Sinwar's death, there are differences in framing patterns that affect how information is conveyed and perceived. <em>France24</em> frames events in a strategic and political context, while <em>Al-Hurroh</em> builds more fact-based narratives. The findings underscore the different framing approaches by the two media outlets that can influence readers' perceptions of the Hamas-Israel conflict and potentially shape public opinion and global policy on Middle East issues.</p>2025-03-03T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Mukhammad Nafiudin, Abdul Basidhttps://publikasi.dinus.ac.id/index.php/lite/article/view/12009Ambivalent sexism experienced by the female characters in Cho Nam Joo’s Saha2025-02-01T20:25:54+00:00Elhama Najihatul Afifah210302110048@student.uin-malang.ac.idIstiadah Istiadahistihumaniora@bsi.uin-malang.ac.id<p>This study examines the two subcategories of ambivalent sexism, hostile and benevolent.

The study investigates how sexism is portrayed in character conversation, actions, and narrative descriptions using a qualitative text analysis method. The ambivalent sexism theory, which was created by Susan Fiske and Peter Glick, was used to analyze the data. Results show that benevolent sexism takes the form of overly protective attitudes and exaggerated praise, while hostile sexism in the book takes the form of verbal and physical abuse. Both of these behaviors reinforce social inequalities and gender stereotypes. The research concludes that <em>Saha</em> effectively portrays the complex dynamics of sexism in a patriarchal society, providing insight into how such themes contribute to discussions on gender studies and literature.</p>2025-03-12T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Elhama Najihatul Afifah, Istiadah Istiadahhttps://publikasi.dinus.ac.id/index.php/lite/article/view/11274Family narratives in Tor-tor performances as a medium for building collective memory and ethnic identity of Mandailing, Indonesia2025-02-19T15:43:56+00:00Elmi Novitaelminovita@isbiaceh.ac.id<p>This research explains the family narrative in tor-tor performances as a medium of building collective memory, identity and communicating Mandailing cultural values.

Yet, while the fighting came to an end, the residue and fragments of the conflict remained. The attempt to reconcile with violence and trauma is best captured through the works of contemporary Acehnese writers. Among other works of fiction, the novel writers try to express what the conflict meant for the Acehnese people. To this end, the current article is aimed at exploring Acehnese representations of violence and trauma through the metaphorical and symbolic meaning of ‘night’ in five contemporary Acehnese novels. This paper demonstrates the way the Acehnese contemporary writers represent the violence and trauma through the metaphor of ‘night’. Qualitative content analysis was used to reduce, narrow, and categorize the words, phrases, or paragraphs extracted from the novels. The data was analyzed by a post-conflict approach. The novels reveal kinds of violence and trauma through the imagery of ‘night’ highlighting multi-layered experiences during the conflict and bring the concept of postcoloniality through their writing. The five novels have tried to bring into play the ‘unfinished business’ of post-conflict Aceh. The novels also highlight the role of contemporary Acehnese novels in post-conflict societies. The disappeared left buried or unburied, the violence, the unresolved trauma, the continuing inequalities and injustices, and the struggle during the conflict means that the Aceh of the past haunts and disturbs the Aceh of the present.</p>2025-03-23T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Mhd Rasid Ritonga, Siti Habsari Pratiwi, Dedy Suhery, Nadrah Nadrahhttps://publikasi.dinus.ac.id/index.php/lite/article/view/11526From TOLERANCE IS BUSINESS to TOLERANCE IS CLOTHING2025-01-30T20:49:47+00:00Millatuz Zakiyahmillatuzzakiyah@ub.ac.idDestriana Saraswatisaraswati@ub.ac.idYulianto Yuliantoahmadyulianto2019@uin-malang.ac.idAhmad Mufarih Hasan Fadlya.fadly@unsw.edu.au<p>So far, religious tolerance in the mass media has never been studied using metaphors in a cognitive linguistic approach. In fact, through conceptual metaphors, the framing of the mass media will emerge on the issue of religious tolerance. This qualitative descriptive research collects data on news and articles about religious tolerance in online Islamic mass media during the period 2018–2023. Data were analyzed using metaphor identification procedure, conceptual metaphor theory, and mixed metaphor. The results of the study show that there are 9 source domains, namely 1) TOLERANCE IS CLOTHES, (2) TOLERANCE IS SPACES/BUILDINGS, (3) TOLERANCE IS HUMANS, (4) TOLERANCE IS THE BODY, (5) TOLERANCE IS PLANTS, and (6) TOLERANCE IS ARE THINGS, (7) TOLERANCE IS A BUSINESS COMMODITY, (8) TOLERANCE IS WAR, and (9) TOLERANCE IS A VEHICLE. In general, the metaphor of tolerance in online Islamic mass media is classified into three tones, that is positive tones, negative tones, and neutral tones. Online Islamic mass media that have a positive tone are NU Online and Alif.id, mass media with a mixed tone (positive-neutral) is Suara Muhammadiyah and (positive-neutral-negative) is Hidayatullah.com, and mass media with a positive tone negative are Portal Islam, Suara Islam, VOA Islam, and Era Muslim.</p>2025-03-23T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Millatuz Zakiyah, Destriana Saraswati, Yulianto Yulianto, Ahmad Mufarih Hasan Fadlyhttps://publikasi.dinus.ac.id/index.php/lite/article/view/12471Balancing fidelity, acceptability, and readability in children’s story translation2025-03-11T05:48:47+00:00Heriantonababanheri@gmail.comDyah Ayu Nila Khrisnadahayu@staff.uns.ac.idIda Kusuma Dewiida.k.d@staff.uns.ac.idBayu Budiharjobudiharjo_b@staff.uns.ac.idFenty Kusumastutifentykusumastuti@staff.uns.ac.idMangatur Nababanamantaradja.nababan_2017@staff.uns.ac.id<p>Children’s literature is crucial for the cognitive, emotional, and social development of young readers. In line with the Agency for Language Development and Cultivation’s initiatives to translate children’s books, this study aims to identify which aspects of translation quality are most effectively maintained and how they impact target readers, particularly regarding engagement across various reading levels. This descriptive qualitative study employed a product-oriented approach with a multiple-case study design to evaluate different reading levels on the Penjaring website. A purposive sampling technique was utilized to select data sources relevant to the study’s objectives. Primary data, the original texts and their translations, were sourced from the StoryWeaver website and the Penjaring website respectively. Informants, including raters and children of various ages, assessed translation quality. The study followed four analytical stages: domain analysis, taxonomy analysis, componential analysis, and cultural-theme analysis. Results indicate that the translation attempts to maintain the three aspects. However, while translations emphasize accuracy and acceptability, readability is often compromised due to complex sentence structures and unfamiliar vocabulary. Although readability scores are generally high, young readers frequently struggle with comprehension. This underscores the need to achieve a better balance between fidelity to the source text and accessibility for young audiences.</p>2025-03-27T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Herianto, Dyah Ayu Nila Khrisna, Ida Kusuma Dewi, Bayu Budiharjo, Fenty Kusumastuti, Mangatur Nababanhttps://publikasi.dinus.ac.id/index.php/lite/article/view/11785Local ecological knowledge in toponyms in the Waduk Jatigede area2025-02-11T20:55:47+00:00Dini Gilang Saridinigilangsari@mail.ugm.ac.idSuhandanosuhandano@ugm.ac.id<p>Toponyms or place names are important linguistic facts. Toponyms can record people's spatial awareness of the surrounding environment. This article explores local ecological knowledge in toponyms in the Waduk Jatigede area. In this area, there are 28 villages from 5 sub-districts affected by the construction of Waduk Jatigede. Data collection in this study used participant observation and interview methods. The data analysis procedure includes four stages: (1) transcription of recorded data; (2) categorizing data from the transcription of recordings or notes based on the classification of toponymy aspects; (3) interpretation of local knowledge about ecology in toponymy; (4) concluding. The results show that polymorphemic toponyms dominate toponyms in the Jatigede Reservoir area. In addition, toponyms in the Waduk Jatigede area are also dominated by toponyms with physical aspects, including hydrological, geomorphological, and biological-ecological characteristics. This finding shows that Sundanese people have a close relationship with the surrounding nature. This local ecological knowledge contains Sundanese people's ecological awareness about the Waduk Jatigede area's ecological characteristics, including water, soil, flora and fauna. This local ecological knowledge is useful as a policy recommendation for natural and ecological disaster mitigation in environmental development, which is essential for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).</p>2025-03-27T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Dini Gilang Sari, Suhandano
