Abstract

This current study explored the findings from the learners' views and experiences while creating a multimodal composition, particularly the affordances and the constraints. A qualitative analysis was used in this study as it analyzed the narratives of 15 (fifteen) learners who responded to an open-ended questionnaire. The findings reveal that most learners positively perceived the multimodal composition since they could learn differently, an innovative meaning-making. Second, several affordances of creating multimodal composition are learning through multimodal composition, innovative meaning-making, understanding the information easily, collaboration, and attracting the reader's attention. Apart from the affordances, the learners also encounter a few constraints: struggling with meaning-making, collaboration with peers, and putting the idea. Relatedly, the teachers could use these results as their reflection in utilizing multimodal composition in the class. First and foremost, multimodal composition offers a new perspective of innovation in ELT context which could be applied in teaching and learning process.

Abstract

In dealing with syllabus design, teachers must recognize their roles in syllabus design since they are taking part in it. Consequently, this current study attempts to explore Indonesian secondary EFL teachers concerning their roles in syllabus design. It covers three points: their general perceptions, their boundaries, and their qualification as the EFL teacher in syllabus design. The main theory used in this study is by Nunan (2000) related to the roles in syllabus design. This study applied a qualitative approach using open-ended questionnaires and virtual interviews as the instrument of the study. A total of five respondents have participated in this current study.  The results found that the teachers believe that they have a role as the implementer and designer of syllabus design. Related to their boundaries in teaching English, all teachers create and develop the syllabus based on the student's needs. Besides, it discovers that teachers are likely to have the freedom to design their activities and materials based on the student's needs even though they should follow the basic element of the syllabus provided by the authorities. Finally, the teachers still need guidance and training in syllabus design since they have a fewer understanding of syllabus design.

Abstract

Several students do not show their positive attitude in studying literature because they are getting difficulties engaging with the materials and the literary texts that are provided by the teachers. Other than that, there are various factors that influence the students not to show their positive attitude to the study of literature. Therefore, this article attempts to elaborate on two main factors that influence student attitudes in studying literature in the EFL (English as a Foreign Language) classroom and offer the strategies used to improve student attitudes in studying literature. Two main factors that affect their attitude toward the study of literature are the selection of literary texts and the teaching method used by the teachers. Thus this article elaborates on how to select the appropriate literary text to improve student attitudes toward the study of literature. Also, it offers two possibilities of teaching methods that are used to encourage the students in studying literature. It involves reading response and visual aids. To generalize the idea, in increasing student attitudes in studying literature, it needs creativity and much effort for the teachers. Students also face many difficulties in studying literature in the classroom. Thus, educators should be aware of the problems that arise among the students and provide the appropriate solution to them.
