Abstract

This study aimed to develop audio-visual narrative text materials to improve the listening skills of tenth-grade students at SMK Kesehatan Surya Global Cimahi. It was motivated by students' difficulties in understanding spoken narrative texts, particularly in recognizing vocabulary, pronunciation, and main ideas. This was compounded by limited classroom listening practice, which typically relied only on teacher read-alouds or simple audio recordings lacking visual support. As a result, students received minimal contextual aid and showed low motivation to engage in listening activities. The study used a Research and Development (R&D) approach with the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation), involving 16 tenth-grade students and two expert validators. Data were collected through observation sheets, expert validation sheets, a product try-out observation sheet, and an open-ended questionnaire. The resulting product was an animated instructional video integrating English narration, visual illustrations, subtitles, and animations. It was deemed feasible for classroom use, with a feasibility rate of 75.9%, and successfully encouraged students' active participation in listening activities. Qualitative findings showed that audio narration, visual illustrations, and animations helped students understand narrative texts more easily and made learning more enjoyable. Despite some technical limitations, the developed materials proved to be a feasible and engaging resource for EFL listening instruction.

The development process consisted of seven stages: Research and Information Collection, Planning, Developing the Preliminary Product, Validation Results, Preliminary Field Testing and Product Revision, Operational Field Testing, and Final Product. The study was conducted at SMA Kartika XIX-3 Bandung. Data were collected through a reflective journal, a validation sheet, and a student response questionnaire. The product was validated by one English teacher and two university lecturers. The validation results showed that the developed module obtained an overall average score of 87.25%, indicating that it was categorized as very feasible for classroom implementation. Media and visual design achieved the highest score (89.58%), followed by content validity (88.33%), language clarity (87.50%), practicality and feasibility (87.50%), and instructional design (83.33%). Furthermore, students responded positively to the module, particularly regarding usability, instructional clarity, visual support, engagement, and learning support.
