Abstract

The massive popularity of K-Pop currently regards as one of the world's most popular. As a result, the researcher was drawn to the Bangtan Boys (BTS) music videos entitled We Are Bulletproof Pt.2 and Boy With Luv (feat. Halsey). This study aims to find out what kind of masculinity BTS Boy Band built and how they portrayed their masculinity in their music videos. The writer also used the qualitative descriptive based on Roland Barthes' semiotic theory as a sign system separated into denotation and connotation, which builds a myth to obtain the meaning. The results found that the type of masculinity represented by the BTS boyband is metrosexual, seonbi, and bishonen. They have portrayed their masculinity from fashion usage that crosses gender boundaries, expression, and gestures that they represent in the music videos. BTS has a significant role in society as a public figure, especially for the younger generation who love and understand themselves more. If the man himself has femininity and masculinity, there is nothing wrong. BTS has redefined masculinity in many ways, and the most obvious is how they present themselves physically. They portray how the freedom and flexibility to wear whatever they want regardless of gender. BTS also teaches men that it does not become harmful for men to admit that they are vulnerable. It is all right to be clumsy, and nobody will judge anything about it. Loving ourselves is more important than following popular standards in society (which is not necessarily good for one's mental health).

Abstract

Writing has been taught for many years as one of the skills that need to be acquired to learn English. However, the long process of writing, which consists of pre-writing, writing, and revising stages, makes it more difficult for the students to do it. Therefore, this study aims to investigate students' strategies in the process of writing. The study used a qualitative design that employed a questionnaire as the main instrument for collecting the data. The questionnaire was distributed to 45 first-year college students. The result from the questionnaire shows that the students used some strategies in each stage of the writing process: pre-writing (70.63%), writing (72.95%), and revising (60.16%). In pre-writing, the students primarily applied resourcing and elaborating strategies. During the writing stage, the most commonly employed strategy was rereading. Finally, in the last phase, they solely employed proofreading as their strategy. By understanding the students' strategies in writing, the teacher can help them develop better writing skills as well as facilitate them in becoming more effective writers.

Abstract

Critical literacy is a core support for EFL pre-service English teachers to process complex, ideologically embedded multimodal texts. However, most current academic writing instruction in EFL teacher education programs shares a widespread common flaw: prioritizing linguistic accuracy while neglecting critical engagement. To explore the actual effect of integrating structured critical literacy tasks into academic writing courses on improving pre-service teachers’ writing performance and critical awareness, this study adopts an explanatory sequential mixed-methods approach, and conducts an 8-week teaching intervention with a sample of 36 pre-service English teachers. The intervention tasks cover critical questioning, multimodal text analysis, and writing critical response papers. For quantitative analysis, a paired-samples t-test is used to process pre-test and post-test writing assessment data, while thematic analysis is used for qualitative analysis to process data from reflection forms and semi-structured interview materials. The study’s results show that the mean writing score increased from 2.81 (SD=0.50) to 3.66 (SD=0.45), t(35)=11.42, p<.001, Cohen’s d=1.90. Scores for critical awareness, argument quality, and evidence use rose by 1.04, 0.91, and 0.78 respectively. Qualitative results indicate that students gradually developed the relevant core competencies, and this set of intervention plans can provide a reusable evidence-based teaching reference for the EFL teacher education field.
