Multiculturalism should be introduced earlier for children since they are living in globalization era where one cultural identity may disappear easily and this can be learned in many ways. However, if it is related to children, it should be taught in fun ways in order to have more meaningful significance for them. One way that can be used by parents or any educators to encourage multicultural education is by using film animations that are closely related to children's environment, such as Adit and Sopo Jarwo animation series produced by Indonesian's talented people. This animated series represents culture of Indonesia and brings multicultural messages shown by the characters through the language spoken, the setting, and the narration. This article explains how Adit and Sopo Jarwo animation series give examples of multiculturalism as people from different ethnic backgrounds are at one place and live harmoniously together as one community. It is expected that children can appreciate differences or similarities that are shared by the people around them and make them becoming persons who are able to function effectively in the multicultural society of Indonesia.

This study analyzes the argumentation skills of advanced level students in writing the content of an argumentative essay. The design of the research was descriptive quantitative involving 60 argumentative essays written by 30 students of the Academic Writing course. The data were analyzed by using a scoring guide referring to Toulmin's model of argumentation. The analysis found that the mean score is 14.29 which is considered as good. However, further analysis on the argumentation elements of students' essays shows that the use of opposition and refutation is low as there are 40% of students in the first writing and 20% of students in the second writing did not propose any opposing argument. Furthermore, 46.66% of the students in the first writing and 50% students in the second writing did not give any refutation in their essays. Referring to the findings, it is suggested that more practices should be given to develop students' argumentation skills. Further research is also recommended to investigate argumentation skills by involving more subjects and different methods of analysis to reveal more comprehensive findings.

In the translation process, translators ask to translate words or sentences considering the elements and meanings of the source language (SL) to the target language (TL).

After conducting interviews with students who have worked on translated texts, it is concluded that by using Domestication ideology in translation, readers will find it easier to understand the meaning of the text, whereas, by using the Foreignization ideology in translation, readers can learn the elements and cultural meanings contained in the source language.

This study aimed to investigate the problems that English students have in writing argumentative essays. The subjects of this research were 55 students who were enrolled in Advanced Writing course at English Language Education Study Program of FKIP Universitas Lambung Mangkurat. A descriptive design within mixed method approaches was applied. A questionnaire was distributed and an open-ended interview was carried out to reveal problems that students face in writing argumentative essays. Moreover, an analysis on students' argumentative essays was employed to confirm the findings from the questionnaire and interview. The results indicated that the students had problems in writing argumentative essays pertaining to cognitive aspects (lack of knowledge on the key features of an argumentative essay), linguistic aspects (content, grammar, organization, vocabulary, claim, and evidence), and psychology aspects (fear of making mistakes, lack of self-esteem, and low motivation) that affected them in writing. These findings demand attention from the lecturers of Advanced Writing course particularly on the needs of more explicit instruction on writing claims and providing evidence in argumentative essays.

However, not all can be applied in a class especially if the students are coming from various backgrounds, have mixed ability and are at different levels of proficiency. Therefore, the teachers have to determine which that gives most benefits for their students. Mathematics department students who received English subject as one of the compulsory courses may feel difficulties in comprehending English reading materials since English is not their major. Consequently, by understanding all differences, differentiating instructions is necessary to be done for achieving the success in teaching and learning activities. This research is aimed at describing what and how differentiated instruction is done in the classroom to teach English reading comprehension about wetlands. It is expected that the results will give better insights for the teachers as well as the students about the best strategy to teach reading comprehension that can cope with large classes and various needs of the students in teaching and learning English for science students.

The differentiated instruction needs more preparation from the teachers because there must be considerations on the students' level of readiness, interest, and learning profile.
