Language plays a crucial part in the foundation of communication in daily life and academic activity. Learning an additional language such as English in school is very important. Mastery of English grammar is required to compose a word or sentence in English.  It takes grammar proficiency to create words or phrases in English. Students in class X IIK 2 MA Bustanul Muta'allimin comprise the study's sample population. Most of the students in this class had trouble putting simple sentences together. According to the results of the needs analysis, the result of the questionnaires, 77% of the students had difficulties constructing their simple sentences in English. Furthermore, 80% of the 13 samples indicated they wished to learn using engaging media. This research was conducted aiming to develop learning media in teaching grammar. The ADDIE model design, created by Dick and Carry in 1996, is used in this research process, known as research and development (R&D). There are five steps in this development that are following the ADDIE model, that is Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The result of media expert validation and material expert validation achieved scores of 80.26% and 68.05%, respectively. A score of 76% was obtained when the questionnaire about using learning media was completed by student respondents.

Abstract

The limited availability of contextualized English for Tourism teaching materials grounded in local tourism potential has resulted in learning experiences that are insufficiently aligned with students’ academic and professional needs, particularly in regions with significant tourism resources. Existing instructional materials remain largely generic and have not optimally integrated local tourism contexts, cultural values, or curriculum learning outcomes. This study aimed to develop locally based English for Tourism teaching materials and to examine their validity, practicality, and effectiveness in supporting the learning process. This research employed a Research and Development (R&D) design by adapting the ADDIE model. The participants were a lecturer and sixth-semester students of the English Education Study Program. Data were collected through questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, classroom observation sheets, document analysis forms, and expert validation sheets. The data were analyzed using both qualitative and quantitative descriptive techniques. The findings indicate that the developed teaching materials achieved a validity score of 4.08 from the content expert and 4.09 from the media expert, both categorized as valid. The materials were considered practical based on limited trial results, with an average student response score of 85. Furthermore, they were effective in enhancing students’ comprehension, tourism literacy, and communicative competence. The implications of this study suggest that locally based tourism materials can serve as a model for developing English for Specific Purposes (ESP) instruction, contribute to curriculum development in higher education, and strengthen the role of educational institutions in promoting sustainable regional tourism development.
