THE DEVELOPMENT OF ENGLISH LEARNING MATERIAL FOR 9TH GRADE STUDENTS OF JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL BASED ON EMANCIPATED CURICULLUM

Abstract

This study was intended to support teachers in delivering learning material based on the Emancipated Curriculum so that it can be utilized as well as possible for junior high school students in Buleleng Regency. Researchers develop learning materials by creating learning materials based on learning styles which include visual learners, aural learners, read/write learners, and kinesthetic learners who use the syntax of three learning methods, namely Problem-Based Learning (PBL), Project Based Learning (PjBL), and Discovery Learning (DL). This research uses qualitative and quantitative methods. The subjects of this research were class IX students and the teachers. Data collection was carried out through observation, interviews, and questionnaires. Qualitative and quantitative approaches were used to analyze the data. The research results show that emancipation curriculum-based learning materials need to be developed further because the English teacher at one of the junior high schools in Buleleng Regency still applies monotonous activities to all students. In other words, schools do not provide supplementary books to students, so there are no variations in learning activities which results in reduced student motivation and creativity as well as analysis documents used by teachers using ATP (Alur Tujuan Pembelajaran) and Teaching Modules. After distributing questionnaires to students, the results showed that students used Kinesthetics more in the learning process.
