This study used a quantitative approach. The product studied in this study was EthnoVlog media in the context of learning science on food and beverage additives carried out at MTs Al Uswah Bergas and SMP Negeri 1 Bergas. Purposive sampling was the method of sampling employed in this study. The researcher used the pre-experimental design approach, type one group pretest-posttest (single group pretest-posttest). According to the findings of the paired sample t-test on the SPSS output, H0 was rejected, and Ha was approved since the significance value was 0.000 < 0.005. This proves that EthnoVlog media influences social media. In addition, the influence of EthnoVlog media also increased students' N-Gain scores by 0.33 for SMP students in the medium category and by 0.26 in the low sort for MTs students. This shows that EthnoVlog media increases students' social media literacy. Based on the results of the data analysis, it can be concluded that EthnoVlog media in the context of learning science is categorized as a learning media that can influence students' social media literacy.</p>2026-04-01T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 EDUCASIA: Jurnal Pendidikan, Pengajaran, dan Pembelajaranhttps://educasia.or.id/index.php/educasia/article/view/392The Impact of English Language Proficiency on Career Opportunities in the Maritime Industry2025-11-05T09:54:24+00:00Komari Komariarikom08@gmail.comLilik Yulianingsihlilikyulia05@gmail.comRosi Fitrianirosisumedi@gmail.comUpi Lalila Hanumuphie.hanum@gmail.comEmon Paranoanparanoanemon@gmail.com<p>The maritime industry, a cornerstone of global trade, relies heavily on effective communication to ensure operational safety and efficiency. English has been established as the <em>lingua franca</em> through the <em>Standard Marine Communication Phrases</em> (SMCP) by the <em>International Maritime Organization</em> (IMO). However, a significant gap in English language proficiency among maritime professionals remains a crucial issue, potentially hindering their career progression. This study aims to comprehensively analyze the impact of English language proficiency on career opportunities, identify the current level of English proficiency, and determine the factors impeding its acquisition among maritime workers. Employing a mixed-methods approach, the research gathered data through questionnaires from 100 respondents and in-depth interviews with HR managers and seafarers. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson's correlation, while qualitative data underwent thematic analysis. Hypothetical findings indicate a significant positive correlation between English language proficiency (CEFR levels) and perceived promotion opportunities and access to international companies. Key barriers identified include a lack of specific maritime English training (<em>English for Specific Purposes</em>), low motivation, and limited access to learning resources while at sea. This study concludes that investing in relevant and structured English language training programs is a vital strategy to enhance the competence and competitiveness of maritime professionals in the global market.</p>2025-11-04T16:23:22+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 EDUCASIA: Jurnal Pendidikan, Pengajaran, dan Pembelajaran
