This study examines the poem  "Peringatan" ("Warning") by Wiji Thukul using Roland Barthes' semiotic theory. The aim of the research is to uncover the meaning of resistance implied in the poem through three layers of meaning: denotative, connotative, and myth. The poem was written in a repressive socio-political context, in which freedom of expression was silenced by those in power. Through a Barthesian approach, the lines of the poem are analyzed as a system of signs that symbolically represent resistance against authoritarian rule. The analysis reveals that the poem not only conveys an aesthetic message but also constructs a counter-discourse to the dominant ideology. The poem becomes a site of resistance, urging the people not to submit to oppression. This study reinforces the view that literature, particularly poetry, holds great potential as a medium of struggle and freedom.

Low student interest in learning English remains a challenge in many Islamic senior high schools, particularly in rural areas where teacher-centered instruction is still dominant. One strategy proposed to address this issue is the Jigsaw method, a cooperative learning approach that emphasizes student collaboration, responsibility,p and peer teaching. This classroom action research was conducted at Madrasah Aliyah Al-Khoirot to examine the effectiveness of the Jigsaw method in increasing students’ interest in learning English, specifically in descriptive text material. The participants consisted of 31 eleventh-grade students, and the study was implemented in two cycles following the Kemmis and McTaggart model. Data were collected through observation, questionnaires, interviews, and tests. The findings showed that the Jigsaw method significantly improved student engagement and learning outcomes. The percentage of students who achieved the minimum passing grade (KKM) increased from 35.48% in the pre-cycle to 77.42% in the second cycle. Additionally, 86.4% of students responded positively to the use of the Jigsaw method, citing increased motivation, understanding, and cooperation. Observation results also revealed active participation, especially in peer explanation and group discussions. Based on these findings, the Jigsaw method is considered effective in fostering student interest, promoting active learning, and creating a more interactive classroom environment. It is therefore recommended as an alternative strategy to enhance English learning motivation in Islamic senior high school settings.

In recent decades, the use of unmanned vehicles (UV) has increased significantly. Unmanned ship operations involve various technical challenges that require sophisticated solutions. Dynamic marine environments, including strong currents, high waves, and extreme weather conditions, can affect ship performance to maintain stability and steer the ship properly, a precise and responsive control system is essential. Small errors in maneuvering can result in high risks, such as damage to the ship or loss of cargo, as well as potential danger to other ships or the environment. The purpose of this study is to design and build a servo motor control system for maneuvering systems on ships and to determine whether servo motors can control maneuvering systems on unmanned ships. The results of this study indicate that the servo motor control system in this study can work automatically or manually. In automatic mode, the motor angle can be set via the application. The ship will stop when the angle matches the settings in the application, based on data from the compass sensor. This sensor ensures that the direction of the ship's movement is accurate by providing a signal when the angle set matches the compass angle. The angle that has been determined when maneuvering the ship's automatic movement system is not accurate, due to currents, water waves and wind that make the ship move or change position by itself.
