Abstract: In the digital world with the development of the internet and the mass media, the corporations and companies attempt to advertise their range of products in the social networking sites and the mass media with the hope that they can improve their sales. Advertising strategies these firms create have brought positive effects on production and benefits for these corporations. According to approach to language functions, advertising is examined from structural and lexical perspectives in this study. In the study, syntactic features including imperative sentences, ellipsis in declarations, and active and passive voice were specified. The affirmative imperative is more likely to be chosen than the negative imperative. Along with the imperative, the simple phrase, and the ellipsis in the statement demonstrate that advertisers like to utilize sentences with basic syntax that leave an impact on readers. Advertisers utilize simple language to describe the benefits, characteristics, and activities of their products.

Abstract: Foreign language teaching is not merely the introduction of a language but also the transmission of values. Language teachers do not only aim at learners' language competence and performance but also the attitudes and behaviors of the learners towards their language speakers' community. In the course-book "American Headway 4-2005", a lesson is chosen for a critical discourse analysis. Specifically, certain values are worked out in the light of a critical discourse analysis. The analysis is done mostly through the wordings and the illustrations in the lessons. Halliday's Systemic Functional Grammar (SFG) and Norman Fairclough's textual analysis were used as theoretical foundation and analysis framework. Certain values are purposely introduced and reinforced throughout the lesson. These values can be the main stream of American. It may be beneficial to our Vietnamese learners to be aware of the values introduced.

Abstract: This study aimed to see the influence of students' religiosity, critical attitude, and creativity on self-concept. It was a survey research with quantitative approach. 184 junior high school students consisting of 124 females and 60 males participated as the sample of this study. For data collection, it used questionnaires that contained 40 items. The result showed that: 1) students' religiosity influenced their self-concept; 2) students' religiosity had no indirect influence on self-concept through their creativity; 3) students' critical attitude had no indirect influence on self-concept through their creativity; 4) students' creativity had no influence on their self-concept; 5) students' religiosity influenced their critical attitude during hybrid learning. Therefore, teachers were expected to encourage and develop students' creativity and critical attitude although these two characters had no direct influence on students' self-concept. Hybrid learning with technology integration could be implemented comprehensively.

Abstract: Career and professional development of employees are some of the crucial correlates of gender equality in progressive employment systems and work organisations (Mullins, 2002). Unfortunately, in Tanzania like in many developing countries, despite measures to enhance employee development in their career and profession, there are wide allegations that female employees are being sidelined in programmes arranged for teacher career and professional development, something that is hitherto worrying and frustrating the female teachers and tainting the national socio-economic development agenda (Constitution of the United Republic of Tanzania). Hence there was need to carry out a desk top study to assess whether there was equity in career and professional development among gender.........

We meet our basic physical and social needs with communication, and that is why its importance is big. In these modern times, teachers are given new roles as an addition to the ones related to teaching and learning.

Abstract: From a Critical Discourse Analysis perspective, this study is an attempt to exploit and uncover the underlying ideologies of the Former US President Obama in his two speeches of 2010 and 2014 at the West Point commencement ceremony. Specifically, in order to explore how linguistic elements manifest the Former President's ideologies, general linguistic features of two speeches related to vocabulary, grammar and textual structure are put into focus. In terms of vocabulary, only overwording, antonyms and metaphor are analyzed to reveal his ideologies encoded through language. Then, grammar features with his use of pronouns, voices and modality are mainly focused. In terms of textual structure, the author pays special attention to the larger-scale structure used in both speeches........

Abstract: Integrated teaching is a modern educational trend that has been implemented in many countries around the world (Desyandri et al., 2019; Lorenzo et al., 2010; Mirascieva, 2010; Petkovska et al., 2010). Integrated teaching plays an important role in educating, training and developing thinking skills, synthesizing, analyzing, generalizing, and abstracting for learners (Aziz Hussin, 2018; Bonfield et al., 2020). The rapid development of science and technology in the current period is demanding a radical and comprehensive change in the content, methods, and organization of educational and teaching activities........
