RISDA ASFINA 12249 K.4 Hi, Zie ! I have a surprising news for you. Now, I'm in Sydney, Australia. I've been here since four days ago. I'm here with my cousins. How nice sydney is! We've visited several famous places here. They are Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge, Royal Botanical Gardens, Luna Park, and Sydney Tower. All of them are really wonderful. So, that's why Sydney is stated as one of the nicest cities in the world. But, everything is expensive here. Of course because Sydney is the most expensive city in Australia and the 66th in the world. I will come back to Padang after holiday is over. So, I still have time for about three days. I won't miss anything here. So, for the rest time, I plan to go to some museums here, such as Powerhouse Museum, Art Gallery of New South Wales, and Museum of Contemporary Art. If you were here right now, you would enjoy it too, and you wouldn't want to leave it soon. So, I look forward to having travelling around...

In this 6th semester, I have a class of EYL (English for Young Learners). In the beginning, we learned about the development of socio-emotional, cognitive, and moral of young learners. We learned deeply about how to teach them later. We also have made the teaching materials for the 4th, 5th, and 6th grade of elementary school. For our mid-term test, we were asked to do observation in one of elementary schools. We were asked to observe their developmental stage of socio-emotional, cognitive, and moral. My group observed an elementary school in isolated area in Batang anai. We took the photos above in the observation. We learned many things there. we also had fun and played with the students there. This observation will be presented in our mid-term presentation test at the end of this April. We hope to do our presentation well. Wish us luck ^^

Effendi Kadarisman, effendi.kadarisman@gmail.com Utari Praba Astuti, utari_pastuti@yahoo.com Universitas Negeri Malang, Indonesia First received: 30 August 2017 Final proof received: 31 January 2018 Abstract Hedging expression is considered an important interactional metadiscourse device which shows the writer’s/speaker’s degree of confidence in the truth of a proposition and his/her attitude to the readers or listeners in academic discourse. Although considerable research on hedges has been undertaken, there have been virtually no studies on hedges in spoken discourse in educational contexts. To fill this gap, this study aims at describing and comparing the use of hedges by Indonesian ELT students in written and spoken discourses. This study is descriptive qualitative in nature. The research subjects were 20 ELT graduate students registered in 2...
