Nowadays we live in digital era, where technology and internet become parts of our life. Many advertisements show convenience ways to get everything by online application. The latest online application which has always become a trending topic in Indonesia is online transportation application. Online transportation advertisements offer us many services. By having this application, we can buy food without queuing, we can go everywhere without driving, or even we can shop without going to stores. The advertisements try to attract us by giving all the effectiveness. Despite all the luxuries offered, unconsciously, all the convenience on transportation advertisements can bring at least two bad impacts for both drivers and customers.

Grammar Anthology is a collection of students’ essays as the outcome of Grammar in Discourse course taught in 5 classes. This writing project is assigned to provide opportunity for students to practice composing academic writing while applying theories of Grammar in Discourse.

Moreover, as designed in the Outcome- Based Curriculum, this anthology can be a media for the students to express their opinions and map ideas based on contemporary facts they found in everyday life contexts. As we are reading and editing the anthology, we cannot help but be profoundly impressed by the perspectives our students have brought up in their writings. In this book, you would see how English grammatical units which are adapted from Grammar and Beyond book 3 (Blass et al., 2013) are rooted.

The grammatical units such as subordinators and prepositions, transition words and phrases, adverb clauses, comparatives, parallel structure, the passives, and ‘it’ constructions are studied and implemented to express ideas on cause-effect, comparison-contrast, classifications and definitions, and problem solution.

Those units are employed to discuss factual life subjects such as cultural values, inventions, human motivation, millennials and media in short essays. These essays are then classified in accordance to the following categories: Social Responsibility, Human Behaviour, Business dan Nutrition and Health.

We do not think we would be able to produce such interesting essays without the help and support from our colleagues in the Faculty of Cultural Studies and Department of Languages and Literature at Brawijaya University. Therefore, we would also like to express our gratitude to Faculty of Cultural Studies and Department of Languages and Literature Brawijaya University.

Hope you enjoy.
