Abstract

The local culture integration in foreign language (FL) reading classroom can help learners understanding text more easily and quickly. This research took 37 secondary school students in the junior level (11 males & 26 females) as the sample. The quantitative research method was used with a case-study research design. There were three research objectives focused in this study: (1) the influence of local culture-based pictorial narrative texts on students' reading comprehension; (2) the correlation between students' perceptions of integrating local culture into the development of reading materials and students' reading comprehension; and (3) the difference of problems faced by students in understanding pictorial narrative texts in terms of purpose of the story, characters in the story, orientation, complications, and resolution of the story. The results showed that local culture-based pictorial narratives had a significant effect on students' reading comprehension, and were positively correlated to each other. In addition, students do not have discrepancy in terms of problems encountered when understanding the narratives such as the purpose of the story, characters in the story, orientation, complication, and resolution of the story.

Abstract

This study explores the application of multimodal approaches in English language learning and their effectiveness in improving English language skills. This systematic review analyzes 10 research articles published between 2021 and 2025 using the SALSA (Search, Appraisal, Synthesis, Analysis) method. A comprehensive search was conducted through electronic databases, including Google Scholar and ResearchGate, using specific keywords and predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The findings show that a multimodal approach positively contributes to language learning. These findings are categorized into 7 aspects of improvement, such as vocabulary, speaking, listening, reading comprehension and literacy, increasing student motivation and participation, supporting the integration of digital tools, and creating comprehensive multimodal strategies in the learning process. Overall, this systematic literature review concludes that multimodal learning approaches make a positive contribution that provides an effective, adaptive, and learner-centered strategy that enhances English language proficiency. However, most existing studies focus on short-term outcomes. Therefore, future research should examine long-term impacts, sustainability, diverse educational contexts, and the comparative effectiveness of specific multimodal strategies to provide deeper insight.
