| Research Abstract |
The study involves critical analyses of media discourse, voices of experts, opinions posted on network and visual images on advertisements. The results suggested that there was a systematic flow in a process in which public discourses become ‘common knowledge’ which would eventually affect the formation of one’s belief about foreign language learning. The researcher will therefore make suggestions for learners to deal with various problems which might occur when a new foreign language teaching policy has been implemented.
