Abstract

This qualitative study investigates how Multimodal Critical Discourse Analysis (MCDA) can be applied to explore the sociopolitical messages embedded in Palestinian cartoons. Focusing on symbolic imagery, emotional language, and rhetorical strategies, the research examines how these multimodal elements shape meaning and influence audience interpretation. Data were collected through classroom observations and in depth interviews with fourth semester English Education students at UIN Fatmawati Bengkulu. Findings show that the integration of visual and textual elements in Palestinian cartoons fosters empathy, critical reflection, and social awareness of humanitarian and political issues. Students demonstrated greater awareness of how multimodal features reinforce ideological messages, enabling them to interpret contextual meanings and express informed perspectives. Although some initially found it challenging to decode layered symbolism, targeted scaffolding supported their interpretive skills. Overall, the study highlights Palestinian cartoons as effective pedagogical tools for enhancing critical thinking, contextual analysis, and engagement with real-world discourse in language learning.

Abstract

Speaking confidence is widely recognized as a crucial component of effective English communication, yet many intermediate-level students remain passive and hesitant to engage in speaking activities. This study investigates the implementation of social expression-based strategies such as greetings, expressions of agreement, and polite requests as an affective approach to fostering greater confidence in speaking English, employing a descriptive qualitative design that incorporated classroom observations and semi-structured interviews. The findings highlight that interactive methods, including role-play, group discussions, and peer-to-peer exchanges, significantly encourage active participation. Teacher modeling played a pivotal role in demonstrating appropriate language use and fostering a supportive atmosphere where students felt safe to experiment with spoken English. As a result, students who had previously been reluctant to speak became noticeably more engaged, contributing more frequently to classroom discussions. The study underscores that descriptive qualitative research is highly effective in capturing the subtle emotional and social dynamics of the speaking classroom, offering practical insights for educators seeking to design activities that nurture speaking confidence in English learners.

Abstract

Argumentative essay writing is essential for developing students’ critical thinking, analytical reasoning, and persuasive communication. However, many learners struggle to construct coherent arguments, integrate evidence effectively, and sustain logical flow. This study examines the potential of Multimodal Critical Discourse Analysis (MCDA) as a pedagogical tool to improve argumentative essay writing skills. MCDA focuses on the interaction of linguistic, visual, and auditory modes in shaping meaning, enabling students to critically analyze multimodal sources such as films, advertisements, and digital media. Through classroom observations, interviews, and writing evaluations, the study found that MCDA encourages deeper engagement with complex issues and promotes critical interpretation beyond surface-level description. Students became more aware of how multimodal elements influence meaning, leading to improved ability in building evidence-based arguments. The approach also increased motivation, as learners worked with authentic, culturally relevant materials. While some students initially faced challenges in interpreting multimodal data, targeted scaffolding supported their progress. Overall, integrating MCDA into writing instruction not only strengthened students’ argumentative structures but also enhanced their critical literacy. This research highlights MCDA as an effective method for linking multimodal analysis with academic writing, preparing learners to navigate diverse discourse environments in the modern era.
