The results of the reading literacy test for Indonesian children at national and international levels were low. Literacy tests are carried out by measuring aspects of understanding, using, and reflecting the results of reading in writing that contains vocabulary. Vocabulary is one of the important things that supports the development of student literacy. Thus, the vocabulary is important to study. This study identified the development of reading and writing vocabulary of junior and senior high school students. This research is descriptive quantitative. The data of this study were in the form of vocabulary derived from books of high school Indonesian students grade VII to grade XII based on the 2013 curriculum and the results of the writing of junior and high school students from grade VII to grade XII. Data were collected by entry application software. For data analysis, the linkage technique of comparing and contrasting was used. The results showed that the development of the number of Indonesian language entries in junior and high school student books was not good, tending to be stagnant. Compared with the results of similar studies in other countries, Indonesian language student books with the number of entries slightly less support literacy development include critical, creative, communicative, and collaborative thinking skills of junior and high school students. Conversely, the development of written vocabulary of middle school students has increased significantly.
Corona Virus Desease 2019 (Covid-19) has become widespread as a global pandemic. One of the most vulnerable to contracting is the elderly. Educational media is needed to provide education for the elderly to avoid the Covid-19 outbreak. The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of a healthy lifestyle education media for the elderly through herbal beveragess to deal with Covid-19. The method in this research is the development of educational media according to Fenrich which consists of analysis, planning, design, development, and implementation. Educational media developed in the form of video and e-flyers. The instrument was in the form of a validation sheet and a user response questionnaire. The results of the feasibility study of educational media showed that the educational media developed were very feasible based on the results of expert validation and user responses. Education media products for healthy lifestyles for the elderly through herbal beveragess to deal with Covid-19 that have been developed are video and e-flyers.
Indonesian language vocabulary has improved. This case is testified by the increasing number of word entries in Indonesian Big Dictionary or the so-called Kamus-Besar-Bahasa-Indonesia (KBBI): 62,100 entries (edition I, 1998); 72,000 (edition II, 1991); 78,000 (edition III, 2005); 90,000 (IV edition, 2008), 127.036 (edition V, 2016). While the number of the words of Indonesian language is developing, the curriculum in its education level is changed. In 1994 curriculum, it was mentioned that elementary school graduates should have mastered 9,000 vocabularies; 15,000 for junior high schools; and 18,000 for high schools. However, in the competency-based curriculum, the later one, it is changed into 12.000 vocabularies for High School graduates. Unfortunately, there is no limit of the vocabulary mastery in the 2013 curriculum, the latest. So far, the standard of vocabulary measurement of the vocabulary that needed to be achieved on the students' textbook have not yet existed. In connection with this, a research is done for calculating entries in the Indonesian language. There are some difficulties in vocabulary counting because there are some unique words. Apart from that, coupled with the help of the manual, the calculation of the entries in the Indonesian language textbook of SMP shows the results in the range of 4,000 entries. Compared to the equivalent class in America with 86,741 entries and compared with the number of entries in the current KBBI totalling 127,036, the number of entry for junior high school students still appears to be lacking.
