Abstract

Video profile is a short video designed to introduce an individual, company or organization to the public. It is information about the existence of an object such as product, service, or area which has its own uniqueness, aimed to increase public awareness and trust through a clear picture of the subject being presented. Such video could be published on various media as a part of a marketing campaign. English Department of Politeknik Negeri Padang carried out activity to create a profile/promotional video in one of the thematic villages in Padang City, namely Kampung Manggis, which is located on Limau Manis sub-district, Pauh District. Being potential area in Padang city, this thematic village is the central area of mangosteen fruit in which 80% of the mangosteen productions in the city are from this area. Kampung Manggis is the second-largest mangosteen producer in West Sumatra, providing high-quality mangosteen for both domestic and international markets. Moreover, as an area that is also potential to become one of Padang City's agro tourism destinations, it is necessary to introduce and recommend the place to broader public through right media. There were three stages implemented in creating the video profile; pre-production, production, and post-production. The result was a five minutes-twelve second-video profile, which hopefully, will grade the existence of this thematic village to public after being uploaded to social media

Abstract

This study aims to assess the effectiveness of the autonomous speaking textbook, which provides detailed guidance for preparing to master English job interviews. This textbook provides detailed guidance on applying autonomous learning in speaking practice within a job interview context, along with rubrics and a weekly journal for autonomous purposes. The Design-Based Research (DBR) methodology was employed in this study, as it is more suitable for developing and evaluating educative innovations in authentic settings. The data were collected from the pre-test and post-test of the students' interviews, as well as survey results, to assess the students’ perceptions and strengthen the measurement of the effectiveness of 27 final-semester D4 English Department students at Politeknik Negeri Padang. The study's results reveal a significant improvement in the students’ speaking competence, particularly in terms of fluency, clarity, confidence, and vocabulary use. Most students felt that practicing mock interviews, receiving peer feedback, and keeping self-assessment journals helped them identify their strengths and weaknesses. These findings highlight the potential of an autonomous speaking textbook to bridge the gap between academic speaking activities and real-world job interview demand. Thus, it offers practical implications for EFL pedagogy and the development of employability skills
