PENGEMBANGAN BOOKLET BILINGUAL ENGLISH FOR MIDWIFERY SEBAGAI MEDIA PEMBELAJARAN KOMUNIKASI BAHASA INGGRIS

Abstract

ABSTRACT

English communication competence is an essential skill for midwives in providing professional healthcare services in the global era. However, learning media specifically designed to support English communication in the field of midwifery remain limited. This study aimed to develop a Bilingual English for Midwifery Booklet as a learning medium for English communication. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model, which consists of five stages: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The analysis stage identified the learning needs related to English communication in midwifery. The booklet was then designed and developed to include essential communication topics between midwives and patients, such as greetings, self-introduction, asking and giving personal identification, taking patient history, giving simple instructions, providing health education, and closing consultations. The developed product was validated by subject matter, language, and media experts before being implemented on a limited scale to obtain feedback regarding its feasibility and practicality. This study is expected to produce a valid, practical, and feasible bilingual booklet that can be used as a learning medium for English communication in midwifery.
