Image Enabled Communication in “Think Like A Monk”: A Multimodal Analysis
(2025) Nepal,Shobha; Resham Acharya
The thesis entitled “Image Enabled Communication in ‘Think Like A Monk’: A Multimodal Analysis” aimed to find out the modes used for communication as a single communicative act in the cover page and the “images with writing” to make meaning in an inspirational book “Think Like A Monk” and analyze them critically. To carry out this research, multimodal perspectives of CDA under qualitative research design were used. The samples “images with writing” were taken purposefully from the selected book. Observation was the tool for data collection. The results of the analysis were presented thematically. The study showed that different modes like writing language/verbal like nouns, verbs, rhetorical devices, personal pronouns, imperatives and gerunds and visuals like picture, color, symbol, computer drawn images, stylistic typography and geometrical shapes were used in the selected book to communicate messages. Different modes were used together in a single communicative act to communicate messages more effectively. In the majority of the images, modes were interdependent to express complete meaning/message. Some modes in some images were capable enough to communicate meaning individually but seemed more effective when they were combined with other modes. This study consists of five chapters. Chapter one deals with the background of the study, statement of the problem, objectives of the study, research questions, significance of the study, delimitations of the study and operational definitions of the key terms. Chapter two consists of review of theoretical and empirical literature, implication of the study, and conceptual framework.

Use of translation with secondary english students; A phenomenological study
(2023) Lama, Chandra Bahadur; Bal Ram Adhikari
The use of translation has been a topic of much debate in current scholarship on English language teaching (ELT). Translation was once a dominant pedagogical tool but has since become a missing component in ELT. Although numerous studies on this subject have been conducted worldwide, only a limited amount of research has been carried out in the Nepalese context. This research gap led to the present study on the topic of "Use of Translation with Secondary English Students: A Phenomenological Study" to explore the lived experiences of English teachers in using translation in ELT classrooms. The research methodology employed in this study is the phenomenological method, using interviews to gather data from secondary English teachers in ten schools within the Kathmandu Valley. These schools include five institutional schools and five community schools. The study found that translation can be a versatile tool to teach grammar, vocabulary, critical thinking skills, and cultural understanding among secondary students as it allows them to analyze and interpret different language structures, meanings, and cultural contexts, promoting a deeper understanding and engagement with the target language, whereas overreliance on translation can have negative effects on language development by limiting exposure to natural language input, hindering effective communication, and inhibiting creativity and thinking in English. The research suggests that translation should be used wisely and balanced with other techniques to create an inclusive and effective learning environment for students. The study is structured into five chapters. Chapter one provides an introduction to the research topic, statement of the problem, research objectives, research questions, significance of the study, delimitations, and definitions of operational key terms. Chapter two reviews relevant literature thematically and presents empirical findings and related theories along with implications for the study and a conceptual framework. Chapter three outlines the research methodology, including ontology, epistemology, research design, field of the study, sources of data, population, sampling procedure, sample size, data collection tools, procedure, analysis, interpretation, and ethical considerations. Chapter four presents the analysisand interpretation of the collected data. At the end, chapter five concludes the study with its implications and recommendations for ELT classroom practices followed by references and appendix.

Teachers' Experiences of Non-verbal Communication in English Language Teaching
(2026) Dangi, Prema; Priti Mandal
This thesis, entitled “Teachers' Experiences of Non-verbal Communication in English Language Teaching,” examined the experiences of secondary-level English teachers and its impact on and role in the ELT classroom regarding the use of non-verbal communication in community schools of Dang district. This study used a qualitative approach and a narrative inquiry as a research design. Three teachers from three community schools of Dang district were purposively selected. The teachers were selected by applying non-random sampling. The data were collected through semistructured interviews and the interviews were analyzed and interpreted thematically. The findings revealed that the teachers consider nonverbal communication an essential component of teaching, primarily developed through classroom experience rather than formal training. Gestures, facial expressions, eye contacts, postures, and movements were employed to support comprehension, classroom management, student engagement, and motivation, while also addressing emotional and cultural dimensions such as reducing anxiety and supporting shy learners. The study findings imply that improving the effectiveness of non-verbal communication in ELT classrooms requires the coordinated efforts of policymakers, institutions, teachers, and researchers. It suggests that policymakers and educational institutions should incorporate structured training, resources, and supportive environments to promote the systematic use of non-verbal strategies. Furthermore, teachers need to consciously integrate and reflect on the use of gestures, facial expressions, posture, and eye contact in a culturally responsive manner, while ongoing research remains essential to examine learner perspectives, contextual variations, and long-term pedagogical impacts.

Dance party as a popular youth Culture in the great Gatsby and saturday Night Fever
(2024) Aryual, Laxmi; Dhurba Bahadur Karki
This research work examines dance party as a popular youth culture in Luhrmann directed The Great Gatsby and John Badham directed movie Saturday Night Fever. This study examines the inherent connections between the dance party and American life of the youths. It implies how dance party as a popular youth culture becomes integral part of American life in twentieth century urban America. Exploring the cinematic techniques of camera and its movement, it applies the theoretical approaches of popular culture defined by John Storey in his book Cultural Theory and Popular Culture who views popular culture as widely favored or well-liked by many people. It also studies how dance parties as a popular culture is represented in both movies by the lens of the camera and its techniques. While doing this, it has applied the theoretical approach implied by Stuart Hall in his book Representation: Cultural Representation and Signifying Practices. Hall argues that representation is an essential part of the process by which meaning is produced and exchanged between members of a culture. The chief beneficiaries of this research work include culture researchers, concerned stakeholders, humanities students and policy makers. It has a tremendous prospect to promote dance parties as a popular youth culture. Keywords: popular youth culture, movies, dance party, representation
