<![CDATA[This is a multimodal critical discourse analysis of three Indonesian English language teaching textbooks. The study focused on the representation of the visuals on the cover to describe English as an International Language paradigm in Indonesia. This study was a qualitative study where the data were presented in the form of a narrative story. The researcher also employed themes to answer the research questions. The result showed that the orientation of English language teaching in Indonesia was native-centeredness where correctness was the focus of the process. Meanwhile, the practice would not prepare the student to have cross-cultural communication where English was used as the Lingua Franca. The result was likely to be in accordance with the latest study on Indonesian teachers’ perspective of the EIL paradigm which showed reluctance.]]>

With the help of the research instrument like class observation and questionnaire, a case study method is adopted in this research in order to find answers to the following questions: how should teachers do with online course design in a blended learning environment? How should teachers carry out teaching practice in a face-to-face class? Can EFL learners improve their learning competency through Superstar Learning System -based blended learning? First, the researcher reviews the literature related to the current situation of college English teaching and learning in China, the concept of blended learning, and an overview of the Superstar Learning System. Next, outlining the online course design for the book the researcher is using in her class and practising one of the texts are described. The design is then evaluated using a questionnaire given to 179 participants. Survey results show that blended learning based on Superstar Learning System can provide a flexible and dynamic learning environment and improve students’ learning competency. Contents of online courses must be designed according to students’ needs and must be developed for all components of blended learning. The results also show students’ overall satisfaction is high.]]>

<![CDATA[During the taxing L2 communicative enterprises undergone by Indonesian EFL learners, language teachers are heavily instigated to erect a more critical standpoint in picking up the most appropriate speaking learning approaches, strategies, and activities working best for the entire learners. This document analysis study was run to profoundly investigate 20 previous foreign language-speaking anxiety literature concerning the contributing factors and probable strategies that can potentially alleviate this psychological phenomenon. Two alleviating foreign language speaking anxiety strategies were proposed as follows: (1) The internalization of more innovative L2 speaking learning activities and (2) The existence of more enjoyable L2 speaking learning circumstances. At the end of the subsection, the researcher expectantly hoped prospective Indonesian EFL speaking learning experts, practitioners, policy-makers, and educationalists to promote a more positive speaking classroom atmosphere, constant speaking learning guidance, and various contextual speaking learning materials to progressively minimize learners’ foreign language speaking anxiety as well as foster their L2 communicative competencies into a greater level.]]>

<![CDATA[Corrective feedback needs to be used carefully to treat young learners’ oral errors as it should not inhibit learners from communicating. This study aims to investigate the use of corrective feedback strategies by informal English training center teachers in Bandung. Classroom observation and coding were used to collect and categorize data regarding errors committed by students and teachers’ use of corrective strategies. The study found that pronunciation errors (49%) were most frequently committed, followed by grammar (27%), vocabulary (20%), and the use of L1 (4%) errors. To treat those errors, the teachers apply corrective feedback strategies, which mostly were in the form of recast (46%) and elicitation (35%). Other corrective feedback strategies such as explicit correction (11%), metalinguistic feedback (6%), repetition (1%), and paralinguistic signal (1%) were found less frequently. This study suggests teachers consider several factors such as types of errors, learning factors, and learners’ factors when deciding the corrective feedback strategies.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims at analyzing how the meaning-making of semiotic signs is manifested on (Covid-19)-themed murals in Indonesia. Four murals with covid-19 themes derived from different sources on the Indonesian website were used as the main data for this study. Drawing on Kress and van Leeuwen’s representational, interactive, and compositional function of social semiotics, the analysis reveals that (1) the murals adopt the four processes in narrative representation, (2) the gazes are categorized as offers images and the use of long shot in the images suggest objectivity and social distance, (3) the messages are delivered in given-new and real-ideal pattern and the absence of frames in the murals indicating that the visual and verbal modes lock together to create the sense of unity between the image and written modes to construct and deliver the message by integrating the existing knowledge to reinforce new information. Thus, the current study contributes to the multimodal studies of how visual and written expression construct the meaning-making process.]]>

<![CDATA[Audio-Visual-Aids (AVA) media is a type of media that has long been acknowledged as a teaching aid in foreign language contexts. However, its uses are varied greatly from teacher to teacher depending on the content, inventiveness, classroom needs, and benefits approaches in language learning. Thus, the current research focused on the investigation of the analysis of vocabulary acquisition in the form of nouns and word spellings. In addition, the researcher also determined the influences of the use of the media on learners’ attitudes. A quantitative pre-experimental research approach in a one-group pre-test post-test design was performed involving 35 participants. AVA media was given within four meetings in the form of PowerPoint slides completed with original audio dubbing and fifteen images representing “Things in My Room”. To get further looks at their attitude, the participants also completed a questionnaire responding to 4 Likert Scales regarding their experiences. The analysis was reported to find out the average scores and initial hypotheses using a t-test on two main focuses with a 0.05 significance level. Findings showed a positive significant difference in the average scores of students’ vocabulary acquisition in the pre-test (7.66) and post-test (12.37) or 12.37 7.66. Scores of the tcoun reached higher than the ttable or 18,56438 2,021. Most of the students agreed and strongly agreed, that learning with AVA media brought some benefits to their learning experiences, particularly in the context of Vocabulary Acquisition.]]>

<![CDATA[This research intended to develop assessment instruments for English literacy in blended learning. The study employed survey, observation, interview, and document study as the methods with a questionnaire, observation checklist, interview guide, and school document as the instruments to collect the data framed within RnD design with the 4D model by Thiagarajan et al. The developed instruments were categorized as ‘very high validity’ and ‘very good’ for their content validity (1.00) and product quality (96% and 98%) by the two judges. It indicates that assessment of learning, assessment for learning, and assessment as learning combined with authentic materials are necessary to improve the learning process as well as the students’ English literacy skills. It also implies that English teachers need to highlight the use of assessment for learning and assessment as learning since those assessments lack attention previously.]]>

<![CDATA[Multimodality has been one of the prominent and burgeoning fields and phenomena in English classrooms. It is based on both the credence which is proven by scholarly evidence that English language learning and instruction will be significantly and effectively delivered if more than one semiotic resource or mode is used. Lots of scholars across the globe have taken part in portraying such significance and effectiveness of multimodality concerning English classrooms. Diamantopoulou and Ørevik (2022) have conflated sheer studies from various distinguished authors providing ‘fresh’ outlooks of the use of multimodality, particularly in English as an additional language (EAL) context across the globe. The use of multimodality in EAL is concisely discussed from various lenses, from its salient perspectives, and pedagogical practices through assessments. Thus, this book is recommended to those who are concerned and willing to capture the latest trajectories of the use of multimodality pertaining to EAL by its par excellence as well as the matter at hand. ]]>

<![CDATA[The paper intends to enquire about the effectiveness of paraphrasing in evolving the EFL students' writing ability for Indonesian Higher Education. The study was quasi-experimental research, and it was conducted in the 4th semester of the English students at Universitas Sulawesi Barat. The research instrument was a writing test, and the student’s scores were gathered through paraphrasing rubric scores. Statistical inferential analysis was performed on the data. It is possible to conclude that The Ha (Alternative) Hypothesis was established hence the paired samples test result carried out with SPSS performed that the sig. rating on the value obtained from the T-test was lower than Sig. value, so theory Y assumptions (Ha) were approved, and both the pilot testing and post-intervention results of the study demonstrated Sig. (2-tailed = 0.000) has been less than 0.05. In other words, this indicates that there is a consequence. The research finishes with pedagogical recommendations for trying to better the paraphrasing skills of novice student writers, and paraphrasing has a medium effect on the EFL students’ writing ability in Indonesian higher education.]]>
