ABSTRACT
Ninik Srimukti. S891202047. 2015. Developing A Task-based ESP Learning
Material for Boutique Dressmaking Skill Program of SMKN 3 Pacitan (A
Research and Development at the Eleventh Grade of SMKN 3 Pacitan in the
Academic Year of 2013/2014). Consultants: (1) Dr. Ngadiso, M.Pd., (2) Dr.
Abdul Asib, M.Pd. Thesis. Surakarta: English Department of Graduate School of
Teacher Training and Education Faculty, Sebelas Maret University.
This research is aimed at developing an ESP learning material to fulfil the
students’ needs in learning English at boutique dressmaking skill program of
vocational high school. It uses Research and Development (R&D) proposed by
Borg and Gall as the research design of this research. This study was oriented to
the product development in the form of procedural model and was conducted in
two main stages; (1) exploration stage and (2) product development stage.
The exploration stage includes: (1) the description of the existing condition
of English textbook and (2) the need analysis of the ESP learning material. The
product development stage describes: (1) the description of the prototype, (2) the
try out of the prototype, and (3) the feasibility of the product. This research was
conducted at SMKN 3 Pacitan. There were two teachers and twenty eight students
involved in this research.
The data of the exploration stage were obtained through conducting
document analysis, having interview, and distributing questionnaire. It was done
to know the quality of the existing English textbook used at SMKN 3 Pacitan. The
findings show that the textbook used at the school contains general English
material and it is less specific to be used for the students of boutique dressmaking
skill program. Thus, it implies that there should be ESP learning material
developed in regard to provide the teacher and the students of boutique
dressmaking skill program.
The ESP learning material was developed by considering some aspects. It
contains theoretical theories of ESP, TBLI, the existing curriculum, and also the
students’ need. Then, it was evaluated and reviewed through expert judgment and
implemented in class XI BSB A SMKN 3 Pacitan, East Java, to make the material
feasible. Through conducting observation and having focus group discussion
(FGD) between the researcher, the teacher, the expert, and the students, the draft
or the prototype was revised to be the final draft. Therefore, after three trials, the
draft is feasible to be applied as supplementary material for boutique dressmaking
skill program students of vocational high school.
