DEVELOPING AN ENGLISH FOR TOURISM DIGITAL MODULE ORIENTED TO THE LOCAL WISDOM VALUES OF MAGELANG
Abstract
ABSTRACT
This study aimed to develop an English for Tourism (EFT) digital module oriented to the local wisdom values of Magelang. This study was part of a research and development study employing the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) model. Beginning with a need analysis phase using a questionnaire, the researchers found students' needs of 10 (ten) relevant language functions that will help them communicate effectively in the tourism industry. These topics were developed into a flipbook by inserting Magelang's wisdom values. To test its feasibility, the researchers conducted an expert judgment procedure by inviting two experts in the field of EFT and media development. The results showed that the Flipbook was feasible to be used with a mean score of more than three for each criterion of a quality module determined by the Education, Curriculum, and Assessment Standards Agency of Indonesia. In addition, following the expert's suggestions, the researchers added a section developed to enrich the student's vocabulary. This study presents the significance of developing learning materials that integrate local values to build students' noble character.
