Abstract

This study investigates the implementation of Digital Multimodal Composing (DMC) in an Indonesian EFL context, with particular attention to students’ composing processes and their application of the Grammar of Visual Design (GVD). Adopting a qualitative case study design, the study was conducted over one academic semester and integrated the Genre-Based Approach (GBA) with multimodal instruction. The participants were twenty-eight undergraduate students enrolled in an English Education program who worked in four groups to produce four digital posters as the final outcome of the Independent Construction stage. All posters were designed using the Canva application and represented different genres, including narrative, informative, and persuasive texts. Data were collected through classroom video recordings, field notes, and semi-structured interviews with six purposively selected students. The findings show that students were able to integrate visual, verbal, and spatial modes in their poster designs, demonstrating an emerging understanding of representational, interactional, and compositional meanings. While students initially experienced difficulties in balancing modes and making deliberate design choices, scaffolded instruction through the GBA stages supported their gradual development of multimodal awareness. The posters illustrate students’ ability to apply GVD principles in culturally relevant and socially meaningful contexts, highlighting the pedagogical value of DMC for fostering digital literacy, creative expression, and genre awareness in EFL learning.Keywords: Digital Literacy, DMC, EFL Classroom, GBA

Abstract

This poetic inquiry aims to explore Indonesian EFL students’ experiences and emotional landscapes in their English language learning process. In this study, eighteen Indonesian EFL non-English major university student participants were recruited following the ethical protocols. Data were collected through a combination of poetry and interviews, capturing a shared space where feelings, struggles, and aspirations can be voiced and collectively understood. A thematic analysis identified patterns and recurring themes in the poetry and interviews, enabling the participants to openly express how positive and negative emotions such as anxiety, pride, and hope shape their engagement with English and their evolving sense of self as language learners. The poetic process not only served as an interpretive method but also as an empathetic medium that honors participants’ voices while revealing the relational and affective dimensions of language learning. The study demonstrates how poetic inquiry functions not only as a representational device but also as an interpretive and relational methodology that enables nuanced access to learners’ affective worlds. By foregrounding poetic inquiry as both methodological and pedagogical practice, this research contributes to expanding approaches for understanding emotional and experiential dimensions of language learning in EFL contexts. Keywords: EFL learning experience, emotion, innovative pedagogy, poetic inquiry, poem

Abstract

The growing attention paid to learner autonomy in higher education has led to interest in alternative pedagogical frameworks like heutagogy, which advocates for self-determined learning and the development of reflective capability. Nonetheless, actual studies investigating the implementation of heutagogy in academic writing training are limited, especially within the Islamic higher education context. This study examines the comprehension and application of heutagogical principles in academic writing training at a state Islamic higher education institution in eastern Indonesia. A qualitative case study design was utilized, with data gathered through semi-structured interviews with four lecturers and twenty-four undergraduate students, classroom observations, and document analysis over six months. Thematic analysis identified five interrelated themes: diverse interpretations of heutagogy, conflicts between institutional traditions and pedagogical innovation, inconsistent student readiness for self-determined learning, the impact of instructor agency and professional experience, and the contribution of digital technologies to facilitating autonomous writing practices. The findings indicate that although a heutagogical approach promotes reflective learning and learner autonomy, its application is influenced by institutional norms, students’ previous educational experiences, and lecturers’ pedagogical beliefs. The research illustrates the impact of culturally rooted principles and institutional customs on the implementation of learner-centered pedagogies in Islamic higher education, emphasizing the necessity for pedagogical scaffolding and professional development to foster learner autonomy in academic writing instruction. Keywords: Academic Writing, Heutagogy, Learner Autonomy, Islamic Higher Education, Self-Determined Learning

Abstract

In response to increasing environmental concerns regarding fashion waste, this study examines how digital campaign visuals construct and communicate environmental meanings through multimodal design. The data consist of four campaign visuals purposively selected from a single social media post published by the United Nations Environment Programme for the International Day of Zero Waste 2025. The visuals were selected based on their thematic relevance to fashion waste, multimodal richness, and representation of diverse visual strategies, including symbolic imagery, statistical emphasis, actional processes, and textual appeals. Drawing on the three metafunctions of Systemic Functional Linguistics and Kress and van Leeuwen’s framework of visual social semiotics, this study analyzes how representational, interactive, and compositional meanings are realized in the campaign visuals. Using qualitative content analysis, the findings show that the visuals combine conceptual symbolism and actional representation to reveal the hidden environmental costs of fashion, such as pollution, water overuse, and carbon emissions. Most images adopt an observer-oriented perspective that positions viewers as reflective witnesses rather than direct participants, while selective use of close-up imagery and vivid colour strengthens emotional engagement and ethical awareness. Compositional strategies, including information value, salience, and contrast, are used to prioritize key environmental messages and guide interpretation. The study reveals how strategic visual design enhances the persuasive power of environmental campaigns and offers practical implications for environmental communicators and campaign designers seeking to address fashion waste through effective visual communication.Keywords: Fashion waste, Metafunctions, Multimodal Discourse Analysis, Visual social semiotics, Representational, Interactive, compositional
