Abstract

A moral value study is necessary to be taught to students. One way to teach moral values is through literary works such as narrative texts. In this study, the Senior High School English textbooks published by The Ministry of Education and Culture and PT. Grafindo Media Pratama were evaluated on the moral principles provided in their narrative passages. A content analysis design was used in this investigation. The data was derived from seven narrative passages contained in English textbooks. The data were gathered by using a documentation method. The data collection, interpretation, and conclusion were the steps in the data analysis process. This study concentrated on the five moral values criteria listed by Linda and Eyre (2013): kindness, love and affection, honesty, respect, and courage. The study discovered that the virtue of kindness dominated the story texts, while respect was mentioned the least overtly. Furthermore, more study was needed to determine the efficacy of the school's environment in establishing values of morality.

Abstract

Film is a kind of social communication that can be made base on the social reality that exists in and around the setting in which it is set. This study aims to examine the moral values in the movie Ayla: The Daughter of War. The content analysis method was employed in this study. Primary and secondary data are the two categories of data used in this study. The key information gleaned straight from the movie Ayla the Daughter of War is known as primary data. secondary data included documents, journals, and other sources of information that could help with the study. This study employs two methods to collect data: documentation procedures and observation approaches. This study used Roland Barthes' semiotic analysis to gain a more precise understanding of the symbols and significance of the ethical lesson conveyed in the movie Ayla: The Daughter of War. The finding showed that there are eight moral values—humanity, helping each other, tolerance, brave, responsible, love and affection, human connections to God, and keeping promises—were identified by researchers in this movie. It can be concluded that there are numerous moral lessons and prerequisites for the meaning of the film. This movie shows that despite differences in racial, cultural, and religious backgrounds, empathy, love, and compassion can still exist. Aside from that, this movie also teaches that love and affection can arise from an honest heart regardless of a person's biological link to another person.
