However, some teaching and learning sources are still paper based. This study was conducted to develop android-based teaching module for academic reading students in English Education Department. Applying RnD as research design, the researcher did data collection, preliminary study, need analysis, product construction, product implementation, evaluation, and product revision. The subject of this study is fourth semester students of IAIN Kediri majoring academic reading. After analyzing student's need and syllabus, the researcher designed the module three levels of exercise: easy, medium, and hard. This is aimed to know that the student’s proficiency is surely improved. The module was developed using MIT App Inventor. After that, the product was validated by expert and implemented on students. The result shows positive response. In summary, the android-based module for academic reading is appropriate to facilitate students in learning English for academic purposes, especially reading.","PeriodicalId":260329,"journal":{"name":"BATARA DIDI : English Language Journal","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127976410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Experiment Group was required to memorize vocabulary by using Mnemonic Keyword while the Control group was required to use Mnemonic Loci in memorizing English vocabulary. Right after the last treatment session, the participants were given a post-test to find out the ability of the participants in both groups regarding their ability to store and recall vocabulary in short-term memory. The results revealed that the Experimental group and the Control group had the same performance. Exactly one week after the first post-test, the researcher conducted a second post-test which aimed to find out the ability of the participants in both groups regarding their ability to store and recall vocabulary in long-term memory. The results revealed the fact that the Experimental group had better performance than the Control group in terms of vocabulary retention and recall in long-term memory.

Teachers must comprehend well the power of digital technology from aspects, such as: challenges, strategies, and the ideal purpose of digital literacy to be embeded in English language teaching. This critical review reveals the challenges of the implementation of digital literacy to support English language teaching. There are three main challenges that the students face in implementing digital literacy in the classroom. Those are lack of supportive access and digital tools, lack of digital literacy skill from teachers and also students’ lack of digital literacy skills.

From several types of need analysis, the appropriate type for analyzing students' needs at vocational high school is Target Situational Analysis (TSA). The aim of TSA is to establish what the students’ needs are during the teaching and English learning process and to connect the students with the targets of the future job at the workplace. The article discusses about the curriculum apply in Indonesia, the vocational high school students’ needs by applying NA and the implementation of TSA in Indonesia and Asian countries.
