Abstract

This research scrutinizes a case study conducted with 15 pre-service English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers in a microteaching class at the English Education Department at UIN Walisongo Semarang. The purpose of the study was to examine the forms, implementation, and reflection of digital multimodal instructional media utilized by pre-service teachers. Observations of classrooms and document analysis were employed to acquire data. Pre-service EFL teachers employ digital multimodal instructional media, including PowerPoint presentations, films, and songs, to enhance English language learning. These tools integrate text, images, video, and audio elements to teach language structures, vocabulary, and emotions effectively. Student portfolios showcase diverse educational strategies across different grade levels, using videos, songs, and PowerPoint presentations to engage students and reinforce language skills. Educator reflections underline the significance of digital multimodal media in simplifying complex topics, improving comprehension, and fostering a holistic learning experience. They also stress the importance of adequate equipment and resources for successful multimedia implementation, affirming the value of multimodal approaches in providing impactful and engaging English language education. The study highlights the potential for these digital tools to provide an engaging and interactive learning environment for EFL students. It is recommended that more research investigate ways for optimizing the use of digital multimodal media in diverse EFL teaching scenarios.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the impact of bipolar phases, namely manic and depressive phases, on the use of the words ‘life’ and ‘death’ in bipolar survivors’ communication. The research method used was qualitative with Likert scales to measure attitudes and perceptions towards stigma in the various bipolar phases. The results showed that bipolar phases influence survivors’ language use, where manic phases tend to produce positive connotations towards the word ‘life’ and depressive phases tend to produce negative connotations towards the word ‘life’. In addition, the social environment also influences how bipolar survivors perceive the use of these words. These findings support previous research on the impact of mood disorders on communication processes and provide additional insights into how bipolar phases influence word usage in the language of bipolar survivors.
