Walaupun bahasa Inggeris merupakan bahasa antarabangsa, tetapi bahasa-bahasa lain turut memainkan peranan dalam bidang dan hal tertentu. Senario global ini menjelaskan sebab perlunya bahasa asing dipelajari. Kajian ini membandingkan faktor-faktor dan trend pemilihan bahasa Cina dan bahasa Jepun sebagai kursus pelengkap oleh pelajar di Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS). Seramai 100 orang responden mengambil bahagian dalam kajian yang menggabungkan kaedah kualitatif (temu bual) dan kuantitatif (soal selidik) ini. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa faktor intrinsik lebih berpengaruh untuk pelajar bahasa Jepun, sementara faktor ekstrinsik lebih menyerlah untuk pelajar bahasa Cina. Hasil kajian ini boleh menjadi rujukan para pengajar untuk tujuan penambahbaikan kursus dari segi kandungan dan penyampaian supaya seiring dengan kehendak terkini pelajar universiti.   Even though English functions as an international language, other languages still play their role in certain fields and areas.

Research has shown that using graphic novels in the classroom is one of useful approaches to promote the understanding of learners especially for lengthy and difficult literature texts. This study reports the extent of graphic novel in facilitating students’ understanding of literature and the students’ perceptions towards using graphic novel in learning literature (L2) as compared to other genre of texts. This is a mixed method study which employs quantitative and qualitative methods to obtain data. The findings indicate that most students found that graphic novel helped them to enrich their vocabularies and understand the text better. The findings also reveal that students were attracted to the illustrations in the literature text in which this helps to boost their motivation to learn literature in the classroom. The findings provide useful insights for English as Second Language (ESL) teachers in incorporating and expanding the literature learning through graphic novels in the future. The findings also imply the need of ESL teachers to use graphic novels effectively in facilitating their teaching and learning of literature in L2 classrooms particularly to suit the 21<sup>st</sup> century teaching and learning.
