Abstract

This study is a research and development under the issue of developing English textbook oriented to HOTS-Based Critical thinking for Junior High School Students especially for the seventh grade students in Ngabang, Landak, West Kalimantan. It is based on the evidence that the English teachers find difficulty in finding HOTS-based English textbook as one of the teaching tools. This issue is supported by the result of textbook evaluation. It reveals that most of the existing English textbooks used by the teachers still emphasizing on remembering and understanding level. These preliminary data led the researchers to develop HOTS-Based Critical Reading Textbook for the seventh grade students. The objectives of this study are to describe the materials needed by both teachers and students and to develop “Critical English”, the English textbook with HOTS and critical reading as the basis. In developing “Critical English” textbook, the researchers employed 7 stages of Research and Development study suggested by Borg and Gall (1983) namely need analysis, textbook evaluation, designing product specification, developing the product, expert validation, revision, try-out, and finalization. This study involved 2 English teachers and 20 (twenty) students of the seventh grade at SMP Negeri 2 Ngabang. The data were obtained through questionnaire, interview, classroom observation, expert judgment sheet, documents analysis, and focus group discussion. Then, the gathered data were analysed using a descriptive qualitative method. The research findings reveal that “Critical English” textbook facilitate the teachers to build the students’ critical thinking and the materials provided in the textbook trigger the students to develop their creativity and critical thinking so that the teaching and learning process can be more active and interesting.

Abstract

Landak Regency in the province of West Kalimantan is rich in beautiful natural tourist attractions. Limited human resources and lack of infrastructure affect the development needed to manage those places properly. However, Landak has 12 communities that support local tourism, known as Kelompok Sadar Wisata (Pokdarwis), in each subdistrict. They are to be good beginning pioneers to manage the local tourist attractions. Helping them, STKIP Pamane Talino in collaboration with Dinas Pemuda Olahraga dan Pariwisata Landak (Disporapar) provide them training on how to be a good tour guide as our community service. They are expected to have more skills and knowledge to recognize and develop any gift and potential in their village. They will be the leader of their Pokdarwis. The implementation of this community service has been done through several stages: taking surveys, interviewing residents and community leaders, training on Sapta Pesona and tour guide, and preparing the final report. This activity results in the growth of public awareness, especially among members of the Pokdarwis, in developing and maintaining local tourist attractions.
