Abstract

This research study was aimed at developing cooperative integrated reading and composition (CIRC) weblogs materials for the second grade students of MAN 1 Yogyakarta. The products were used to facilitate the teaching and learning process of reading and writing. The development of CIRC weblogs materials was carried out through ADDIE stages which were analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The analysis stage was aimed at recognizing students’ need and interest, conducted through interview, observation, questionnaire and review of related literature. In the design stage, the processes of course grid development and weblog lay outing were conducted following the genre-based approach. After that, the processes of writing the initial products and validating them by content and media experts were conducted in the development stage. In the implementation stage, the revision of the initial products was tried out using the action and research design with the second grade students of MAN 1 Yogyakarta as the subjects. The data of the implementation were gathered from the field notes, interview, documents, and questionnaire. Those data were used to evaluate the products in the evaluation process. The qualitative data were analyzed using the descriptive analysis while the quantitative data were analyzed through the descriptive quantitative analysis which was converted to the qualitative data. The result of the data analysis showed that the materials could provide more texts which were closely related to students’ life and more practices on grammar, vocabulary, and generic structure of the text. However, the weblogs materials should be more adaptive to the learning process. Hence, the materials were improved by adding more games, giving direct feedback, simplifying instructions, minimizing essay questions, and giving examples or demonstration before working with the assignments. Through the development of the products, the learning process became more conducive since there was improvement on the students’ interaction and motivation which supported them to improve their knowledge and skills of reading and writing. Keywords: weblogs, reading, writing, learning materials
