The present study is grounded under qualitative research with a functional discourse analysis approach. Data is obtained from news about BTP which were published from September to November 2016. The results of the analysis suggest that the most dominant type of transitivity was verbal process, the most dominant participant was verbiage, the most dominant circumstant was location, while the logical meanings found were 178 data out of 220 (80.91%). Discourse field is analyzed through the verbal process which contained rebuttals, clarifications and explanations that BTP did not mean to insult Islam. The social context links the blasphemy of Islam with politics. Kompas website intends to state that there are parties who deliberately take advantage of the blasphemy of Islam for political purposes. Discourse actors are divided into roles, social distance and social status. The prominent roles and social status came from Islamic religious leaders, especially from the religious organizations whose opinion was more favorable to BTP's position while social distance narrates BTP's closeness to Muslims, especially ones in Jakarta.]]>

<![CDATA[Articles are one of the most difficult parts in writing, especially for EFL students. Different use of articles often leads the students to make errors. This study is intended to know the types of article errors made by students in writing report text and to explain why the errors occur. This study used a descriptive qualitative method. The subjects of this study were the students of class nine at X Junior High School in Jombang. Based on the analysis, it had been found that there were 3 types of article errors: the definite article, the indefinite article, and no article. The results of this study indicated that the students made errors on all types of articles. The errors happened because of both interlingual transfer and intralingual transfer. Finally, it can be concluded that the students had a lack of knowledge in English articles.]]>

<![CDATA[A Day in My Life (ADML) videos are TikTok contents that describe what the TikTokers do in their everyday lives. This research aims to explore how femininity is constructed through ADML videos. By utilizing textual analysis methods, this article highlights how Indonesian female TikTokers affirm or negotiate with the dominant ideology in the society, in this case patriarchal ideology. Research findings reveal that in their content, @sindisafitrii and @gelialinda affirm the patriarchal ideology by constructing the notion of marrying at such a young age due to social factors and culture constructions. Furthermore, they also construct the idea of marriage as “halal” or lawful or permitted under Islamic law. On the other hand, ADML videos by both TikTokers are also ambiguous in portraying the domestic role divisions between husband and wife. On one side, husbands are portrayed to have a balanced gender role with their wives. However, in some videos, the narratives showcase how uncommon it is for husbands to be involved in domestic roles and how they are glorified for doing their chores in the domestic area. Research findings also uncover that these ADML videos portray how women should gain personal financial security; even though they also depict that the reason why the two TikTokers choose to get married at a young age is for financial security. The ambiguous portrayal of how femininity is constructed in both TikTok accounts through their A Day in My Life videos represents how they affirm yet negotiate with patriarchal ideology.]]>

<![CDATA[The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of using the freewriting techniques on the writing ability of Indonesian junior high school students in producing descriptive texts. The study was conducted in a private school located in Banten province and involved 33 students who were selected through a total sampling. A quasi-experimental design was used, with pre- and post-tests serving as the research instruments. The tests were validated for content validity and inter-rater reliability. The results were analyzed using a t-test, which showed that the use of freewriting techniques had a significant positive effect on the writing ability of the students. The t-count (2.533) was higher than the t-table (2.039) at a significance level of 0.05, indicating that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted and the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected. The average score of the experimental class was higher than that of the control class, further emphasizing the positive impact of the freewriting techniques. These results suggest that the implementation of freewriting as a teaching techniques has the potential to enhance the writing ability of Indonesian junior high school students.]]>

<![CDATA[The present study investigated incidental grammar learning through movies, specifically for Korean drama viewers. As they get exposed to the Korean language through the dramas/variety shows that they frequently watch, the possibility of them being aware of how Korean language, or Hangul, works seems to be potentially high. The present study applied a mixed-method approach through an open-ended survey which consists of 13 items. Nine items were closed-ended questions while four items were open-ended questions. This study uses a convenience sampling to gather the respondents. The survey was distributed for a week and responded by 36 respondents. The results of the current study show that the majority of the respondents never received formal lessons of Hangul and got exposed to Hangul only through Korean dramas and variety shows. In addition, the respondents show a sort of awareness toward some Hangul morphological forms like plural markers, closeness markers, and a syntactical aspect. The findings show that through Korean drama watching, the Korean drama viewers seem to notice the language pattern of Hangul. The findings suggest that using movies as a learning platform seems to have a positive impact on language learning.]]>

<![CDATA[The material development course is one of the most important courses in the initial teacher education (ITE) program since student teachers have to understand how to develop EFL materials for their classroom needs. However, academic literature has limitedly discussed principles of material development courses to deal with contemporary global citizenship education and education 5.0 era. This article proposes a conceptual framework to encourage material development in EFL student teachers at the undergraduate level. The study starts with the justification of the gap between classrooms and contemporary society portraits. To fill this niche, this conceptual study draws on Widodo et al. (2022) regarding the framework for language material development and diversity in ELT proposed by Banegas et al. (2021) to offer a conceptual model for EFL teachers and material developers. Hopefully, the concept helps EFL practitioners design learning materials purposively accommodating diversity and inclusivity for foreseeable global citizens.]]>
