Abstract

Tourism promotion increasingly relies on digital platforms where destinations are framed through carefully constructed narratives. Using a multi modal discourseanalytical approach, the present study seeks to examine textual and visual element from lonelyplanet website, particularly the destination of France to represent tourist destinations as idyllic “paradises.” The analysis reveals that destinations are frequently framed through metaphors of escape, authenticity, and exclusivity, highlighting natural beauty and cultural uniqueness while downplaying local challenges or complexities. Additionally, multimodal resources—such as imagery, layout, and interactive features—play a central role in reinforcing persuasive narratives that align with global tourism imaginaries. Findings suggest that online tourism discourse constructs not only desirable places but also particular identities for travelers, positioning them as explorers, culture seekers, or luxury consumers. This study contributes to tourism discourse research by demonstrating how digital travel platforms commodify places through strategic language and multimodality, shaping both destination branding and tourist perceptions.

Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of Kahoot-based collaborative learning as an instructional strategy to enhance reading skills among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners. The research was conducted at Senior High School in Medan with 22 tenth-grade students as participants. Utilizing a Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach, the study was implemented in two cycles, each comprising planning, action, observation, and reflection phases. The data were collected through a combination of quantitative (pre-test and post-test scores) and qualitative (student activity observations and documentation) methods. The pre-test results revealed that none of the students met the minimum passing grade (KKM) of 75, with an average score of 47. In Cycle I, only 31.81% of students surpassed the threshold, with the average score increasing to 70. However, in Cycle II, a notable improvement was observed as 72.72% of students scored above the KKM, raising the average to 80. Furthermore, qualitative findings indicated significant growth in student engagement, participation, and enthusiasm, with student activity levels rising from 55% in Cycle I to 87% in Cycle II. These results demonstrate that integrating the Kahoot application into collaborative learning environments can significantly improve both cognitive outcomes (reading comprehension) and affective factors (motivation and interaction) in EFL classrooms. Kahoot's interactive and gamified nature creates a learner-centered atmosphere that promotes active participation and facilitates deeper comprehension of reading materials. The study concludes that Kahoot is a valuable digital tool to transform traditional reading instruction into a dynamic, engaging, and collaborative experience, thereby contributing to improved literacy outcomes in EFL contexts.

Abstract

Ridley Scott’s critically acclaimed 1979 science fiction horror film Alien depicts the struggles of the crew of a spaceship named Nostromo against a murderous alien monster. The film has been interpreted through critical lenses such as feminism (Kuhn, 1990), psychoanalysis (Telotte, 2001), law (Crofts, 2021), and racism (Sobchak, 2001), but there is still room for other interpretations. This paper proposes a Marxist Cultural Studies reading of the film by conducting a close textual analysis of its narrative structure, character dialogue, production design, and cinematography to explore three core Marxist concepts: alienated labor, class conflict, and commodity fetishism. This is extended into an overview of the film’s contemporaneous socio-economic contexts of 1970s America (USA), such as power structure in the industrial economy, employment anxieties, corporate hegemony, in addition to the lasting effects of (Cold) War in the West. Findings show alienation of the Nostromo crew from: 1) their ‘product’ (the murderous alien lifeform they were directed to retrieve); 2) their productive activity (agreement to substandard terms driven only by wage compulsion); 3) their human potential (absence of purpose from labor); 4) other workers (distrust and expendability). The class conflict between the proletariat (the Nostromo crew) and the bourgeoisie (the faceless, inhumane corporation represented by the AI ‘Mother’ ship computer and by extension, the alien) structures the film’s narrative of exploitation and betrayal. And lastly, the alien monster can be interpreted as a fetishized commodity desired by the corporation for its potential value, completely outweighing the value of the crew’s lives. By paralleling these findings with the overview of 1970s America’s socio-economic issues in capitalism, such as distrust of authority and corporate hegemony, possible influences on the film’s themes can be seen. In conclusion, this Marxist critique reveals the film’s portrayal of expendable labor in ways that still resonate with modern audiences despite geopolitical space, facilitating a cross-cultural engagement on timeless and global social issues.

Abstract

This paper outlines the theoretical framework Criticising Orientalism From Within (C.O.F.W.) that foregrounds the methodology of research for the thesis Orientalism From Within: A Critical Study Of Pandering And Catering To The West In Three Contemporary Indian-English Novels (2006) Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia and the book Orientalism from Within Arundhati Roy and Her Contemporaries (2010) Penerbit Universiti Sains Malaysia.The workings of imperialism and neo-colonialism in the contemporary situation is pitted against postcolonialism via Indian-English literature, and explored in the chapter titled Criticising Orientalism From Within specifically and the study generally. This chapter is an eclectic fusion of six modern theorists. The slant or methodology used is criticism and analysis of the three novels vis-à-vis an eclectic or diverse theoretical framework. However, this paper concentrates on Dipankar Gupta’s book India is for Sale and his term Orientalism from Within that this research has borrowed, adapted and adopted as a title to the theoretical framework, the thesis, and the book mentioned above. All the other theorists employed to create the theoretical framework will be discussed generally.
