Embedding Critical Literacy within Higher Education EFL Reading Courses: A Narrative Inquiry of an Indonesian Lecturer’s Practice
This narrative inquiry examines how one EFL lecturer (“Ayu”) at a private Indonesian university embedded critical literacy in a first-semester Reading 1 course. Using three narrative interviews, weekly reflective journals, and course documents collected over one semester, the study found that Ayu reframed course goals from basic comprehension to “reading the world,” implemented scaffolded strategies aligned with the Four Resources Model and locally relevant texts, supported students’ gradual shift from silence to cautious critical voice through journals and small-group discussion, and negotiated constraints of time, proficiency, and exam-driven assessment by hybridizing conventional instruction with formative critical tasks. The study suggests aligning assessment with critical literacy aims, expanding professional development, and conducting multi-participant narrative inquiries to better understand critical literacy enactment in Indonesian EFL higher education.

ESP Needs-Analysis-Based Syllabus for Islamic Banking Study Program: Key Principles and Model
This study aimed to investigated the English language needs of students in an Islamic Banking study program as a basis for designing an English for Specific Purposes (ESP) syllabus that is relevant to academic and professional demands. Employing a needs analysis framework, the study adopted a qualitative descriptive approach supported by quantitative data. Data were collected through questionnaires administered to Islamic Banking students, semi-structured interviews with English lecturers and Islamic banking practitioners, and document analysis of the existing curriculum and course syllabi. The findings revealed that students require English primarily for understanding Islamic banking terminology, reading academic and professional texts, communicating with clients and colleagues, delivering presentations, and preparing written reports in Islamic financial contexts. Among the four language skills, reading and speaking are identified as the most critical, followed by writing and listening. The results also indicated a mismatch between the current General English–oriented syllabus and students’ actual target needs. Based on these findings, the study proposes an ESP syllabus model that integrates Islamic banking content, communicative tasks, and skill-based instruction aligned with workplace practices. This needs-analysis-based syllabus is expected to enhance learning relevance, student motivation, and graduate readiness for the Islamic banking industry.

Mekanika Bahan untuk Konstruksi Berkelanjutan
Artikel ini disarikan dari buku akademik Mekanika Bahan untuk Konstruksi Berkelanjutan. Latar belakangnya adalah kebutuhan menurunkan dampak lingkungan material konstruksi tanpa mengorbankan keselamatan struktural, mengingat banyak inovasi rendah karbon hanya efektif bila kinerja mekanik dan durabilitasnya terjaga sepanjang umur layan. Metode yang digunakan berupa sintesis literatur terstruktur yang menautkan prinsip mekanika bahan—hubungan tegangan–regangan, kekuatan, kekakuan, ketangguhan, susut–rangkak, dan mekanisme kerusakan—dengan strategi konstruksi berkelanjutan. Ruang lingkup mencakup beton rendah karbon (LC3/semen rendah klinker dan binder alternatif), material sirkular (agregat daur ulang/residu), engineered timber, serta material fungsional untuk efisiensi energi. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa keberlanjutan material sangat dipengaruhi oleh desain berbasis kinerja dan pengendalian retak, karena retak mempercepat degradasi dan menurunkan umur layan. Selain itu, kontrol mikrostruktur dan kualitas bahan baku menentukan transport ion/kelembapan serta stabilitas kinerja jangka panjang, sehingga uji durabilitas yang relevan dengan paparan lokal menjadi prasyarat adopsi material inovatif. Simpulan menegaskan bahwa pendekatan mekanika bahan memungkinkan pemilihan material berkelanjutan secara terukur melalui spesifikasi berbasis kinerja yang terintegrasi dengan verifikasi LCA/EPD. Implikasinya, adopsi material rendah karbon perlu dilakukan bertahap melalui standardisasi, QA/QC, dan validasi lapangan agar reduksi karbon terwujud dapat dicapai sekaligus meningkatkan ketahanan struktur.

Inovasi Material Konstruksi Berwawasan Lingkungan
This article is a concise adaptation of the academic book Inovasi Material Konstruksi Berwawasan Lingkungan. It is motivated by the construction sector’s high greenhouse gas emissions, driven largely by ordinary Portland cement (OPC), which makes low-carbon material innovation an urgent priority. The study applies a structured literature synthesis covering LC3 and other low-clinker cements, alkali-activated materials (AAM)/geopolymers, CO₂ mineralisation in cementitious systems, circular materials based on recycled aggregates and industrial residues, and engineered timber (e.g., CLT). The analysis evaluates environmental impacts, performance and durability, and adoption barriers related to standards, material quality, and transparent LCA/EPD verification. The findings indicate that LC3 and modern blended cements are the most deployment-ready options, with an estimated potential to reduce emissions by approximately 30–40% compared with OPC. AAMs and CO₂ mineralisation may deliver greater reductions, but require stronger long-term durability evidence, clearer standardisation pathways, and robust verification; circular materials and CLT are effective when strict quality control and moisture–fire performance requirements are met. In conclusion, near-term decarbonisation should prioritise scaling LC3/low-clinker solutions and optimised mix design under performance-based specifications. Recommendations include strengthening QA/QC, green procurement, and performance-based regulation; the implications are the need for standardisation, field validation, consistent LCA/EPD reporting, and resilient low-carbon supply chains.

Juandana Kawuladini Putra. (2025). Changes in Face-to-Face Communication: An Analysis of Interpersonal Communication in the Social Media Era. This study thoroughly examines the fundamental change in interpersonal communication patterns brought about by the widespread use of social media. The shift from in-person conversations with a wealth of nonverbal clues to screen-mediated communication is a phenomenon that affects more than just communication tools. This study's main goals are to thoroughly examine how social media affects the dynamics and caliber of interpersonal communication and to pinpoint any behavioral shifts that people experience. This study examines how social media systematically removes nonverbal indicators like body language, voice intonation, and facial expressions, all of which are essential for fostering empathy and understanding, using a qualitative methodology that includes a review of the literature and document analysis. The phenomenon of asynchronous communication, in which the delay between sending and receiving a message impacts the conversation's flow and may lead to ambiguity, is also examined in this study. The results of the study indicate that although social media provides never-before-seen connectivity and makes it easier to build large social networks, it also produces a paradox: more virtual connections come with difficulties in preserving meaningful relationships. This change has ramifications, such as the rise of misunderstandings, a decline in empathy, and even the possibility of social isolation among online users. All things considered, this study demonstrates how social media has changed the fundamentals of in-person communication. In order to preserve social and psychological well-being, it advises people to be critically aware of these effects and the significance of striking a balance between online and offline relationships.
The first group of subjects examines how social media has reshaped communication patterns, replacing face-to-face interactions with quicker, less personal digital exchanges. This shift has led to a reduction in the depth of relationships, with a particular loss of non-verbal communication elements such as body language, facial expressions, and tone, which traditionally convey emotional nuance. This change impacts both emotional connection and overall communication quality. The second group focuses on the psychological and social effects of digital communication. Topics such as the psychology of online interaction delve into how social media influences self-perception, emotional well-being, and social identity. The rise of social media addiction also disrupts face-to-face communication skills, impairing emotional intelligence and attention span. Additionally, the changing landscape of digital etiquette and social norms is explored, with new online rules of engagement shaping interactions and behaviors in virtual spaces. Finally, subjects like public opinion and identity formation analyze how social media platforms influence group behavior, public discourse, and the spread of both information and misinformation. A comparative study of face-to-face versus online communication evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of both forms, considering how each affects personal and professional relationships in the digital age.
Disciplines related to the analysis of communication in the social media era encompass various fields. Communication Studies examines how technology, especially social media, affects both verbal and non-verbal communication, influencing interpersonal relationships. It looks at the evolution of communication practices in response to the digital age. Meanwhile, Psychology and Sociology investigate how online interactions impact mental health, emotional intelligence, and social behavior, as well as how digital platforms shape group dynamics and social norms. In addition, Media Studies focuses on the role of social media in shaping public opinion, narratives, and collective identity. It analyzes how media platforms influence communication behaviors and perceptions in society. Cultural Studies delves into how digital communication reflects and shapes cultural identities, values, and expressions in the virtual world, while Information and Communication Technology (ICT) explores the role of digital tools in transforming how we interact and share information.
