This research is motivated by the widespread use of non-standard Indonesian on social media, which has resulted in low public awareness of the importance of implementing Indonesian according to the rules.The purpose of this study is to analyze Instagram users’ awareness of using standard Indonesian words and to assess the effectiveness of language coaching through social media. The research employed a qualitative descriptive method with a case study approach, where data were collected through polls using the Instagram Story feature, observation of uploaded content, and analysis of audience interactions between account managers and followers. The findings show that most social media users still tend to use nonstandard word forms in daily communication. However, after receiving coaching through educational content, there was a significant improvement in understanding and applying standard word forms. This study concludes that Instagram can serve as an effective and engaging medium for language development, as it can reach diverse audiences and encourage users to be more aware, responsible, and wise in using proper Indonesian according to the norms of the Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia (KBBI) and the Pedoman Umum Ejaan Bahasa Indonesia (PUEBI).

The use of the Indonesian language, particularly in spelling, has not been fully executed properly, especially in textbooks. Textbooks, especially Indonesian language textbooks, as the primary learning source, should serve as examples of standardized and error-free texts. However, in reality, many language errors are still found in the non-fiction texts of Indonesian language textbooks. This research describes syntax language errors in the Indonesian Language Textbook for Grade VIII published by the Curriculum and Book Development Center of the Ministry of Education and Culture. The research method used is Qualitative Descriptive. The results of the research include language errors in the Grade VIII Indonesian Language Textbook published by the Curriculum and Book Development Center of the Ministry of Education and Culture in the field of syntax, which include: conjunction errors, punctuation errors, misspellings not in accordance with KBBI (Indonesian Dictionary), and sentence ineffectiveness. From the research findings, it can be concluded that Indonesian language textbooks serve as good learning resources, but the various errors found indicate that Indonesian language textbooks are still not effective for learning. This research was conducted to identify language errors in Indonesian language textbooks in order to pay more attention to their effectiveness in learning.
