This study analyzes the use of multimedia tools to teach English in non-English speaking nations and highlights the issues that teachers and English students confront. A better instrument for the exploration of a novel teaching approach has been the increasingly growing scientific tools and techniques such as multimedia technology. Multimedia technology, in particular, in non-native language contexts, plays an essential role in English language education. It also intends to raise awareness of the strategies to effectively deploy non-mutual English speakers as language teachers. The study presents a detailed analysis of the role of multimedia tools and technology. Advantages and disadvantages of multimedia tools and technology are described at length, recommendations are made and conclusion is drawn.  It is believed that the use of multimedia technology can ensure effective language teaching and enhance learners’ linguistic abilities.

This study aims to describe the learning outcomes of constructing explanatory texts among eleventh-grade students taught by investigating the multiliteracy and conventional methods, the difference in learning outcomes of students taught by investigating the multiliteracy and conventional methods for those with a high and low prior ability, and the effect of investigation multiliteracy method and prior ability on learning outcomes in SMA Posigadan state senior high school. Furthermore, an experimental method was employed with a 2x2 factorial design. It was shown that (1) students taught by the investigation multiliteracy method got higher learning outcomes (an average score of 79) than those who studied using a conventional method with an average score of 62.81. (2) the average learning outcome of students with the high prior ability and taught by the investigation multiliteracy arrived at 78; no major difference from those with the high prior ability and relying on a conventional method (an average learning outcome of 75). Likewise, the average learning outcome of students with the low prior ability and taught by the investigation multiliteracy reached 52.81; no major difference from those with the low prior ability and studying with a conventional method (an average learning outcome of 46.94). (3) the p-value in the interaction between the investigation multiliteracy method and prior ability got 0.007 or less than α = 5%. Thus, H0 was rejected and accepted H1, meaning that the investigation multiliteracy method and prior ability influence students’ learning outcomes.
