Abstract
The objectives of this research were: 1) to find out the target and learning needs of Grade VIII students of SMPN 4 Yogyakarta in learning the short functional text reading through interactive multimedia, and 2) to develop the appropriate interactive multimedia for the short functional text reading for Grade VIII students of SMPN 4 Yogyakarta. This was a research and development (R&D) study. It involved 62 students of Grade VIII of SMPN 4 Yogyakarta. The procedure adapted a model of multimedia instructional design process by Lee and Owens (2004). The steps were: 1) analysing students’ needs, 2) designing the course grid, flowchart, and storyboard, 3) developing the first draft of the interactive multimedia, 4) conducting evaluation through expert judgment for the materials and media aspects, and 5) revising the first draft to be the final draft. The data collection instruments were a needs analysis questionnaire and expert judgment questionnaires. The data from the needs analysis were analysed quantitatively using frequency and percentage and the data obtained from expert judgment were analysed through descriptive analysis. The findings showed that: 1) the students mainly learned English to be able to communicate using English and to score well in the exam; 2) they considered themselves lacking in pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar and reading comprehension related to short functional texts; 3) they wanted varied learning activities such as true/false statements, multiple choices, ordering activities and fill-in the blanks; 4) they wanted the learning topics related to their surroundings and daily life such as invitations, text messages, and schedules; 5) they needed learning materials that were based on Standards of Competence and Basic Competences; 6) they preferred to learn autonomously or with their friends but still needed guidance from their teacher; 7) they preferred the interactive multimedia to be used in smartphone; 8) the learning inputs for the materials included texts, pictures, audio, and videos; and 9) they expected the interactive multimedia to have bilingual instructions, different background colours for each unit, instrumental music background, easy and simple navigation, and exercises with answer keys. Thus, this research developed an interactive multimedia which can be used in smartphone entitled ELIPS 8 (English Learning through Interactive Multimedia Program using Smartphone for Grade 8 Students). It consisted of three units and each unit had 22 activities. The research findings showed that the developed interactive multimedia was appropriate. The mean score for the whole materials aspect was 3.87 and that for the whole media aspect was 3.82 which were in the range of 3.25 4 and fell into the category of “Very Good”.
