Alaminah R. Abdussalam — 2024-03-31

In this research, children used poster narratives to communicate their perspectives of the Marawi Siege. A social semiotic approach was utilized to understand their visualizations. This study aimed to look into the aspect of understanding the narratives of the child victims of the Marawi Siege through their drawings, referred to poster narratives in this study, by extracting the visual images present. The collection of data was limited to the two temporary shelters in Marawi: Boganga and Rorogagus. The researcher collected 40 poster narratives from the different temporary shelters in Marawi City, and the recurrent visual images were those of Social Actors, Shattered Place, Battle Aircraft and Weapons. The child-respondents included significant minute details in illustrating the social actors such as tears, sad and scared expressions, color and position, and at times, supported these emotions with texts which served as anchorage. From these findings, it could be drawn that a careful study of the shapes, strokes, colors, position, number and size of the images was of paramount significance to better understand the data output of the children-respondents. The posters are not meaningless forms or shapes. They convey materials or images from the deeper recesses of the minds or psyches of the respondents.

Human Existence as Caliph and Implementation of Islamic Education

Darwis Hude — 2024-03-31

This article aims to examine more deeply the essence of humanity in Islamic education. In its study, this paper uses the literature study method, namely studying human essence from primary sources of the Islamic religion such as the Al-Qur'an and the Hadith of the Prophet. Education that ignores the goals, functions, and tasks of human creation from the concept of Islamic education is a concrete form of distance from Islamic educational practices. This article concludes that human existence is a combination of physical elements and spiritual elements or between material elements and immaterial elements, the elements of body, mind and spirit are a unity that cannot be separated. Since the time of creation, humans have been equipped by God with the potential to be "knowledgeable" or "knowledgeable". The potential for science or knowledge is what then differentiates humans from other creatures. Because of this potential, he became a noble creature and had more value, so he was appointed caliph on earth. From an educational perspective, the Qur'an provides a picture that humans are pedagogical creatures, namely creatures who have the potential to be taught and educated, which in the context of this verse is symbolized by Allah's teaching to Adam about the names of all objects. Thus, education is a necessary process for humans to guide, direct and actualize the potential that exists in humans.

Nirergative Verbs in Novels "Laskar Pelangi" by Andrea Hirata and "Perempuan Berkalung Sorban" by Asma Nadia

Mega Williandani — 2024-03-31

This study aims to compare the use of niergative verbs in two famous novels in Indonesian literature, namely "Laskar Pelangi" by Andrea Hirata and "Perempuan Berkalung Sorban" by Asma Nadia. Nirergative verbs, which do not require an object in the sentence, play an important role in stretching the story and characters in a narrative. This study analyzes the context of the use of nirergative verbs in the two novels, focusing on their influence on plot development, characterization, and theme. The results of the analysis show differences in the use of nirergative verbs in the two novels. "Laskar Pelangi" tends to use nirergative verbs to describe the character daily lives in the context of their school and neighborhood. On the other hand, "Perempuan Berkalung Sorban" emphasizes the use of nirergative verbs to explore the spiritual aspects and internality of its main characters, creating a more introspective feel. This study also discusses the implications of the use of nirergative verbs on the reader's understanding of the narrative and the message the author wants to convey. This comparison reveals that although both novels use nirergative verbs to achieve different literary effects, they both succeed in creating immersive stories and make significant contributions to Indonesian literature. This comparison provides a deeper insight into the use of non-nergative verbs in Indonesian literature and how their use can affect the narrative and the reader's understanding.
