c. Unit 3
The first part is the genre of Unit 3 which is news item. The consideration of choosing this genre was based on the basic competence.
From the genre, the contents of this unit were developed so the objectives can be achieved by the students.
The second part is the unit title of Unit 3. The title of this unit is “The Journalist Reports That”. Similar to the previous units, the title shows
the expressions which will be learnt by the students. Therefore, students are expected to be ready with the lesson. Moreover, the purpose of choosing this
title is to emphasize the genre. The third item of the course grid of unit 3 is learning objectives.
The objectives of Unit 3 were generated from the basic competences of English in
tenth grade of high school of second semester. The next item is the language focus. The language focus part in Unit
3 also consists of two parts: the grammar and vocabularies. The grammar taught in this unit is direct and reported speech. The choice is based on the
objective of Unit 3. For the vocabulary, the items are taken from the input. Therefore, the vocabularies are terms related to news item texts.

of learning. The procedures of Unit 3 are developed based on the result of needs analysis and genre-based approach.
The last item of the course grid of unit 3 is input. There are two main inputs in this unit namely texts and some pictures. The main text entitled
“Jeddah Riot” was chosen because of some reasons, i.e. outfits the genre which will be learnt and the values in it. Besides, the students’ interest in

3. The Storyboard
After the course grid was constructed, the next step of this study was story boarding. Storyboard is an illustration of the main screens of a website
combined with text explanations of the elements and how they will work together. There are two activities in storyboarding in this study i.e. designing
the web based materials and layout. Designing the web based materials is the first thing to do. Based on
the course grid, there are three units of learning materials which each consists of about 12 tasks. The organization of the tasks referred to a genre-based
approach. According to this approach, there are four steps in teaching English
i.e. BKOF – MOT – JCOT – ICOT. Therefore, this website also used those
steps to construct the materials with some adaptation. Generally, each unit is divided into several sections. The first section
is the introductory page. This page presents the unit title and an introductory paragraph. The purpose of the introductory paragraph is to introduce the
learners about the topic and to inform the learners about the objectives of the learning. In addition, the paragraph provides information about the situation
or context in which they will use their language competences. After the introductory page there are the main sections consist of stage
1 – stage 3 plus summary and self reflection page. The detailed information
about each stage plus summary and self reflection page can be seen in the following table.
