e-lon consisted of four units. Each unit contained three components: Lesson reading text, Lexicon glossary, and Quiz. In Lesson menu, the students would be
exposed with the targets words in reading text. The target words were bolded and typed in red color to mark them so that the students could identify while reading the
text. It was expected that the students could guest the meaning and gave examples of those words in context. The next was Lexicon which provided explicitly list of
target words. The last was Quiz to strengthen the retention of the target words.
2. The Process of Developing
e-lon
The development process of e-lon applied formative evaluation. It aims to ensure the efficiency of the program and involve prototype testing with some
experts and with a small number of selected users. Improvement in various design features were made, and the process is repeated until the best design is found. There
are three steps in the process of program development. The steps were preliminary filed testing, tryout of the preliminary product, and revision. In the preliminary field
testing, the researcher involved experts’ judgement from different field and then
conducted the tryout of the preliminary product to the small group. The revision step was done after getting the feedback of the experts and tryout.
a. The Preliminary Field Testing
The preliminary field testing aimed to validate the quality of the initial product designed. The Experts validation helped the researcher to see the
appropriateness or even the weaknesses of the preliminary product which was based on the results of need assessment and literature review. The expert validation
questionnaire was distributed to an expert of material development, two IT experts, five English lecturers, and three nursing lecturers. The feedback, opinion, and
suggestions were the basis for revising the prototype of the product before implemented to the target users.
