  • the integration of internet based Reading Materials into the foreign language curriculum from teacher to student centered approaches
    Language Learning & Technology, 2002
    Co-Authors: Klaus Brandl
    Abstract:

    Whereas many educators enthusiastically embrace the use of Internet-based Reading Materials, little theoretical and empirical research exists that demonstrates how to make use of such practices in a sound pedagogical way. This article provides guidance to teachers and curriculum developers by describing three approaches to integrating Internet-based Reading Materials into a foreign language curriculum. The design of an Internet-based lesson is largely determined by a teacher's pedagogical approach, her/his technological expertise, and the students' language proficiency. In light of these factors, the approach to the pedagogical design of successful lessons falls along a continuum from being teacher-determined or teacher-facilitated to studentdetermined. In more detail, lesson designs may distinguish themselves in the following areas: • the learning resources, that is, the topics and content, text type • the scope of the learning environment, that is, the number of different sources (sites or links) to be integrated • the learning tasks, that is, the ways in which the learners explore the Reading Materials, synthesize and assimilate what they have learned. • the degree of teacher and learner involvement in determining the areas mentioned above Based on concrete sample lessons, this article describes the strengths and challenges of each approach from a pedagogical, technological and designer's point of view.

  • Designing Reading Materials For ESP Students Vocational High School Of Medical Science
    International Journal for Educational and Vocational Studies, 2019
    Co-Authors: Fauzi, Dian Hanifah
    Abstract:

    The study attempted to design Reading Materials for Medical Science students at one of Vocational High Schools in Serang. To produce satisfactory teaching Materials, the researchers conducted the following steps: doing needs analysis, reviewing the principles of Materials design and Reading in a foreign language, designing course framework, syllabus, the Reading Materials, and implementing the sample lessons. Researchers employed qualitative methods in gathering the data. The instruments used were questionnaire and interview. The questionnaire was addressed to students, alumni, teachers and institution. The interview was collected from the users. The needs analysis was carried out by distributing questionnaires. The result of needs analysis, became the basis for the researchers to design course framework. The course framework was then developed into a syllabus. Finally the syllabus became the basis for designing Reading Materials. Reading Materials for Vocational High School applied a topical syllabus. Each lesson or unit discusses different topics, greeting and introduction. Introduction about nurse, health, dialogue between nurse and patient, eat healthy food, profile a nurse, tools, disease, nutrition, the healthy diet pyramid. Each lesson also adopted various Reading skills or strategies. They were skimming, scanning, and guessing meaning from context. When the Materials had been designed, the researchers implemented six out of ten lessons of the coursebook. The results were satisfactory. Most students mentioned that the coursebook was related to their field of study. The majority of the students said that the Materials were understandable and interesting. They also said that they were satisfied with the Reading Materials

To produce satisfactory teaching Materials, the researchers did the following steps: doing needs analysis, reviewing the principles of Materials design and Reading in a foreign language, designing course framework, designing syllabus, designing the Reading Materials, and implementing the sample lessons. The researchers employed qualitative methods in gathering the data. The instruments used were questionnaire and interview. The questionnaire was addressed to students, alumni, teachers and institution. The interview was collected from the companies or users that have ever recruited the graduated students. The needs analysis was carried out by distributing questionnaires. The results were then analyzed. The result of needs analysis, became the basis for the researchers to design course framework. The course framework was then developed into a syllabus. Finally the syllabus became the basis for designing Reading Materials. The Reading Materials for Vocational High School Husada Pratama applied a topical syllabus. Each lesson or unit had different topics, greeting and introduction. Introduction about nurse, health, dioalogue conversation nurse and patient, eat healthy food, profile a nurse, tools, disease, nutrition, the healthy diet pyramid. Each lesson also adopted various Reading skills or strategies. They were skimming, scanning, and guessing meaning from context. When the Materials had been designed, the researchers implemented six out of ten lessons of the coursebook. The results were satisfactory. Most students mentioned that the coursebook was related to their field of study. The majority of the students also said that the Materials were understandable and interesting. They also said that they were satisfied with the Reading Materials. Keywords: Reading Materials, ESP, Reading skill
