Prototype of English reading teaching materials based on the HyFlex model

Abstract

In recent years, the use of digital learning materials has made foreign language education more engaging, interactive, and effective. This study aims to develop English reading materials using the HyFlex (hybrid flexible) approach for teaching English reading as a foreign language. The study seeks to promote the use of digital teaching materials in this area and improve teachers' ability to design flexible learning resources. To achieve this, a HyFlex-based prototype of learning materials was created and evaluated using a structured development approach. This prototype is available to vocational English teachers and accounting students. It includes modules with materials and worksheets designed for flexible learning. Data collection involved interviews and observations with English teachers and vocational students in Indonesia. The study used thematic and content analysis to process the data. The development of this English reading material prototype requires further study to improve its flexibility and readiness for use by vocational accounting students in Indonesia.
