The learners involved were 82 students at Islamic higher education in Kalimantan. The data were calculated using ANOVA test. The finding revealed that: (1) Direct Corrective Feedback (DCF) gave effect toward writing ability. The mean difference (MD) between DCF and NF was 16.86429* and the significance value was 0.00 0.05. (2) Indirect Coded Corrective Feedback (ICF) gave an influence on writing ability. The MD between ICF and NF was 12.72895* and the significance value was 0.00 0.05. (3) Indirect Un-coded Feedback (IUF) gave influence on writing ability. The MD between IUF and NF was 13.60455* and the significance value was 0.00 0.05. (4) The types of feedback (DCF, ICF, and IUF) gave an influence on writing performance at the p 0.05, and the F value (3, 78) = 30.38, p= 0.00).

<![CDATA[Fairy tales are considered stories for children because of magical events in them. The consideration is based on assumptions that children's rationality is not well-developed yet. However, adaptation of fairy tales continues in the time when people do not believe in magic anymore, even they multiply the magical elements in the works of adaptation. This article analyses positions of magical and real elements in a fairy tale entitled ‘Snow White’ by Brothers Grimm and a film directed by Rupert Sanders called Snow White and the Huntsman. We apply theory of Adaptation by Linda Hutcheon to recognize the adaptation as a product, process, and context while to map the magical elements in the two stories we apply magical realism by Wendy B. Faris. To explore the context of adaptation of the magical elements, constructionism by Vivien Burr is also applied. The results of this paper analysis show the position of magical element in the adaptation varies. The variation become possible First, the magical element is dominant in Snow White by Grimm but logic invades the magical element. Second, the adaptation of Snow white in the form of film shows the dominance of magical element in a hyper-contestation of magic. Third, both works are not magical realism works which support the same agenda in different ways. Grimm’s version supports colonialization discourse with the logic of the post-enlightenment paradigm, and the film version supports re-colonialization discourse through the contestation of magic that is technological rather than ideological.]]>

<![CDATA[This current study explored the findings from the learners' views and experiences while creating a multimodal composition, particularly the affordances and the constraints. A qualitative analysis was used in this study as it analyzed the narratives of 15 (fifteen) learners who responded to an open-ended questionnaire. The findings reveal that most learners positively perceived the multimodal composition since they could learn differently, an innovative meaning-making. Second, several affordances of creating multimodal composition are learning through multimodal composition, innovative meaning-making, understanding the information easily, collaboration, and attracting the reader's attention. Apart from the affordances, the learners also encounter a few constraints: struggling with meaning-making, collaboration with peers, and putting the idea. Relatedly, the teachers could use these results as their reflection in utilizing multimodal composition in the class. First and foremost, multimodal composition offers a new perspective of innovation in ELT context which could be applied in teaching and learning process.]]>

The writers applied semantic method of analysis in this study, especially Gorys Keraf’s Diction and Language Style. The results of this study show the use of elusive dictions that can be understood through denotational meaning, and connotation in the poem.

The research focuses focusing enhancing students’ listening skills through narrative text appearing in video games and how listening can be enhanced by narrative text video games. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method. The researcher collected some data through the video games and then continued to classify them into narrative text analysis, especially linear structure, and branch structure. The researcher employed E. Kleinman Carstensdottir and M.S El-Nasr’s theory to analyze the texts and filter them into the linear structure and branch structure categories. The results show that linear structures have cutscenes, character interactions, and task completion. The video games that represent this analysis to enhance listening are taken from Alan Wake 2. The branch structures have multiple endings, dialogue trees, and quick-times events. The video games that represent this analysis to enhance listening are taken from Detroit: Become Human. This analysis shows that narrative video games provide an effective and leisurely way for individuals to practice and enhance their listening skill.]]>
