Abstract

This study aims to improve the English writing skills of seventh-grade students at SMP Negeri 2 Tabanan through the use of Canva in creating descriptive posters. Writing is a crucial skill in language learning, as it allows learners to express ideas and thoughts in written form. However, many students face difficulties in writing, especially in constructing descriptive texts. Common errors found include grammar, spelling, punctuation, and sentence structure. This research employs a Classroom Action Research (CAR) method conducted in several cycles involving planning, action, observation, and reflection. Canva, a graphic design platform, is integrated as a learning medium to assist students in developing descriptive texts into visually engaging posters. Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests as well as student questionnaires to assess their responses toward the use of Canva. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ writing skills, with the average score increasing from 65 in the pre-test to 78 in the post-test. Furthermore, students reported higher motivation and enthusiasm in the learning process. The use of Canva allowed students to be more creative, expand their vocabulary, and pay closer attention to language mechanics while writing. Therefore, Canva can serve as an effective tool to enhance English writing instruction in junior high schools.

Abstract

This study investigates the integration of register variation in translation pedagogy, emphasizing the relevance of multimodal awareness and context-based teaching approaches. Register, which is defined through the components of field, tenor, and mode, plays a crucial role in shaping meaning and guiding translators’ decisions across different genres and text types. The growing diversity of contemporary texts, ranging from academic articles to informal digital content, requires translation students to adapt their linguistic and stylistic strategies according to communicative purpose and audience expectations. This study employs a qualitative literature review to examine recent developments in translation theory and instructional practice, highlighting the need for a more adaptive and responsive teaching framework. It proposes a pedagogical model that includes genre-sensitive translation tasks, multimodal translation projects, comparative analysis of texts with different registers, and reflective commentary as instructional tools to enhance translation competence. These strategies help students develop not only linguistic accuracy but also critical awareness of cultural context, appropriate tone, and functional meaning. The findings support the conclusion that effective translation instruction must extend beyond literal meaning, encouraging learners to approach texts with both contextual sensitivity and practical awareness. This research contributes to the development of a register-focused and practice-oriented model for translator education.
