Utilization of Chatbot AI to Improve the Accessibility and Effectiveness of Guidance and Counseling Services in the Digital Era: A Literature Review
Guidance and counseling (GC) services across educational, public health, and industrial contexts face core challenges: limited professional workforce, geographical barriers, and stigma that impede user access. This systematic literature review analyzes the potential of AI chatbots as a supportive solution for GC services in the digital era. Data were collected from 32 scientific journals (2018–2025) and practical reports, then analyzed using a thematic approach. The findings reveal that AI chatbots improve service accessibility through three key avenues: (1) 24/7 availability without location restrictions, (2) up to 40% reduction in operational costs for service providers, and (3) stigma mitigation via anonymous interactions. Additionally, chatbots equipped with natural language processing (NLP) algorithms and psychological data training enhance service effectiveness by delivering initial mental health symptom screening (78% accuracy based on a case study in Indonesian secondary schools), simple coping guidance, and referrals to professionals when necessary. However, the study identifies critical challenges: the risk of misinterpreting emotional context, limitations in addressing complex cases (such as severe depression), and user data privacy concerns. Based on these results, the study recommends a collaborative model between AI chatbots and GC professionals, as well as the implementation of strict data regulations to ensure service safety and relevance. This review concludes that AI chatbots are valuable supportive tools for expanding the reach of GC services but cannot replace the human role in addressing complex emotional needs.

The Effect Of Big Book Learning Media On Reading Literacy Abilities Of Grade Iv Students At Rade Elementary School
This study aims to determine the effect of using Big Book media on the reading literacy skills of fourth-grade students at Rade Elementary School. Observations show that most students still read haltingly, less fluently, and get bored quickly during reading lessons. Observations in fourth-grade students at Rade Elementary School indicate that some students still face reading difficulties. Some students read haltingly, skip words, use incorrect intonation, and even do not understand the content of the reading after finishing reading. Differences in ability are also quite striking: some students are already fluent, but many are still in the low category. Low reading motivation is further exacerbated by minimal parental support and a lack of interesting reading materials at home. This condition causes some students to get bored quickly when reading lessons are conducted using conventional methods. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group model, involving 40 students divided into an experimental group and a control group. The research instrument was a reading literacy test that covered aspects of reading comprehension, fluency, and reading accuracy. The results showed a significant increase in reading literacy skills in the experimental group. The average pretest score of 76.50 increased to 82.00 in the posttest. Based on the Wilcoxon test results, the use of Big Book media has proven effective in improving students' reading literacy skills. Therefore, Big Book can be used as an innovative and effective alternative learning medium for implementation in elementary schools.

Findings reveal three main typologies of perception: (1) mainstream orthodoxy that prioritizes doctrinal purity, (2) conditional tolerance that accepts diversity within certain boundaries, and (3) rigid exclusivism that rejects the legitimacy of differing groups. These perceptions are shaped by religious educational backgrounds, institutional interests, historical conflicts, and media-driven identity narratives. The study shows that inclusive elite perspectives support the cultivation of religious moderation in Islamic educational institutions, whereas exclusive views tend to foster polarizing attitudes among learners. This research contributes to the discourse on intra-religious exclusivism and offers practical implications for strengthening moderation-oriented curricula, teacher training, and dialogical learning environments within Islamic education.

Analysis of Symbolic Interactionism in Lontang Dance: Cultural Meaning and Social Dynamics in Purwaraja Village, Ciamis Regency
Lontang Dance is a traditional Sundanese art form that developed in Purwaraja Village, Ciamis Regency, and functions as a medium for spiritual and social communication within the community. This study analyzes the symbolic meaning of Lontang Dance through the perspective of symbolic interactionism developed by George Herbert Mead and Herbert Blumer. Using a qualitative ethnographic approach, the study involved participant observation (n=32 participants), in-depth interviews with traditional figures and artists, and visual documentation. The analysis shows that cultural symbols such as the tray, seeng, and ibing movements in Lontang Dance are constructed through a dynamic and ongoing process of social interaction within the community. These symbolic meanings undergo modification and negotiation to maintain religious relevance without eliminating local cultural identity. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of how cultural realities are constructed through human interaction and emphasize the importance of local cultural preservation in the context of modernization. This research opens new perspectives in the study of symbolic anthropology and local culture-based arts education.

Social Reproduction in the Implementation of the Free Nutritious Food Program (MBG) in Makassar Early Childhood Education (PAUD)
This article aims to analyze how the implementation of the Free Nutritious Food (MBG) program in Early Childhood Education (PAUD) institutions in urban areas of Makassar reflects the process of social reproduction. Using Pierre Bourdieu’s theoretical framework of habitus, capital, and field, this article examines how practices and policies within the MBG program contribute to the perpetuation of social structures and class differences in society. The study adopts a conceptual–analytical approach, employing qualitative methods based on literature review and sociocultural analysis of the Makassar community context. The findings indicate that the MBG program functions not only as a child health policy but also as a symbolic arena that reinforces disparities in social, cultural, and economic capital among different social groups. Family habitus, perceptions of nutrition, and the ways educational institutions interpret policy collectively shape patterns of social reproduction within the urban context of Makassar. This article highlights the importance of a sociological approach in formulating child nutrition policies to foster more equitable social transformation..

Application Of The Peer Teaching Method In Learning Arabic Language Maharoh Kalam
This study aims to describe the implementation of the peer tutoring (peer teaching) method in learning Arabic, particularly in speaking skills (maharah kalam), among seventh-grade students at SMPI PK Muhammadiyah Delanggu. This research was motivated by students’ low speaking proficiency, differences in prior Arabic learning experiences, fear of making mistakes when speaking, and the lack of varied teaching methods that resulted in passive learning and low student confidence. The peer tutoring method was chosen because it allows students to learn through peers who have higher competency, thereby creating a learning atmosphere that is more familiar, communicative, and collaborative. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach, using observation, interviews, and documentation as data collection techniques. The data were analyzed through the stages of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, and validated using triangulation, audit trail, and member checking. The data sources consisted of the school principal, the Arabic language teacher, and seventh-grade students. The findings indicate that the implementation of peer tutoring helps students become more active, confident, and better able to understand Arabic learning materials. Peer tutoring proved to be effective because students feel more comfortable asking questions and discussing with their peers. This method also reduces teacher dominance, enhances two-way interaction, and helps bridge the gap between students who have and have not previously studied Arabic. Thus, peer tutoring can serve as an effective alternative instructional strategy to improve students’ Arabic speaking skills.

A New Paradigm in Vocabulary Instruction: AI-Based Language Learning Theory
The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) has profoundly reshaped the educational landscape, particularly in the area of vocabulary teaching for foreign language learners. This paper presents a new perspective on vocabulary instruction that integrates language learning theories with AI-driven technologies. Using a descriptive-qualitative method supported by a literature review of national and international journals published within the past decade, the study highlights AI’s potential to promote personalization, enhance learning efficiency, and increase interactivity. Tools such as chatbots powered by large language models (LLMs), mobile-based gamified platforms, and adaptive learning systems can provide content tailored to individual learners’ needs and profiles. However, several challenges remain, including inadequate infrastructure, insufficient teacher preparedness, ethical and privacy issues, and the risk of excessive dependence on AI. To address these issues, the study proposes strategies such as teacher professional development, strengthening digital literacy, and integrating AI into curricula in alignment with sound pedagogical principles. Ultimately, AI is envisioned not as a substitute for teachers but as a tool to support and empower them as facilitators of intelligent and engaging learning experiences. The successful implementation of AI-based vocabulary instruction depends on the synergy between technology, pedagogy, and local cultural values. The article concludes with practical recommendations for educators and learners to adapt to these technological shifts thoughtfully and critically, encouraging a more dynamic and transformative learning process.

Language Acquisition and Function of Preschool-Aged Inclusive Children in Mataram City
This study aims to describe language acquisition and language functions in preschool-aged inclusive children in Mataram City. The research was conducted at two schools, namely Kindy House (a private school) and SLB Negeri 1 Mataram (a public special school). The focus of the study is directed toward the stages of language acquisition and the language functions that emerge in children’s interactions within the school environment. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through observation, utterance recording, and interviews with teachers. The research subjects consist of preschool-aged inclusive children ranging from 3 to 6 years old, representing three main characteristics: children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and Down Syndrome (DS). Data analysis was conducted by classifying children’s language data based on stages of language acquisition and language functions according to Halliday’s theory. The results indicate that language acquisition among inclusive children occurs at varying stages and does not always align with their chronological age. The dominant language functions observed include instrumental, regulatory, and interactional functions, while representational functions remain limited to some subjects. These findings suggest that mapping language acquisition and language functions can serve as an initial basis for identifying the linguistic profiles of preschool-aged inclusive children, particularly for preschool teachers and parents

The Effect of Using Wordwall-Based Interactive Learning Media in Increasing Students' Learning Motivation at SMP Negeri 4 Dompu
This study aims to determine the effect of using interactive learning media based on wordwall in increasing the learning motivation of junior high school students. This type of research is a quasi-experimental (non-equivalent control group design) with a quantitative approach. The population is all 30 students in grade VII. The sample used is grade VII students consisting of two classes, namely class VII A as an experimental class consisting of 15 people and class VII B as a control class consisting of 15 people. The sampling technique uses saturated sampling. The data collection techniques consist of questionnaires, observation and documentation. As well as data analysis using prerequisite tests namely normality test, homogeneity test, and hypothesis test (t test). Data were obtained through pretest and posttest questionnaires. Based on the results of the study, it was obtained that student learning motivation in the experimental class after the use of wordwall media was 14 students or 94% who had very high motivation criteria and 1 student or 6% who had high motivation criteria. Meanwhile, in the control class that used picture media, there were 5 students or 33% who had very high motivation criteria and 10 students or 67% who had high motivation criteria. After that, the average value of the pretest questionnaire in the experimental class was 69.47 and the control class was 59.73. While the results of the posttest questionnaire showed an average of 89.73 for the experimental class and 80.40 for the control class. Based on the results of the posttest questionnaire in the experimental and control classes, it can be seen that the value of the experimental class questionnaire is greater than the value of the questionnaire in the control class, namely 89.73>80.40. So it can be concluded that the use of interactive learning media based on wordwall is more effective in increasing student learning motivation and can be shown from the results of the t-test which obtained a significance value of 0.000<0.05 which means Ha is accepted and Ho is rejected.

The Positive Impact of Football Schools on Students’ Character Development: A Case Study at SSB Bintang Kejora Masbagik (Ages 14-15 Years)
This study aims to analyze the positive impact of football training programs on the character development of students aged 14-15 at Sekolah Sepak Bola (SSB) Bintang Kejora Masbagik. Character development in adolescents is a crucial aspect of shaping their identity and values, which will guide them in the future. Football, as a team sport, holds significant potential in instilling values such as discipline, sportsmanship, leadership, and cooperation, which are essential for character development. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study design, collecting data through interviews with coaches and students, character questionnaires, and direct observation. The questionnaire results show that 64% of students fall into the moderate character development category, 21% into the low category, and 14% into the high category. While most students show progress, there is still room for further improvement in character development. Interviews with the coach revealed that the main challenge is maintaining a balance between technical skill development and consistent character building in every training session. The findings suggest that while the program has a positive impact, further efforts are needed to strengthen character development more evenly among students. This study provides valuable insights for SSB managers and other sports organizations to design more effective training programs for adolescent character development.
