product. The draft was tried-out in three times. Every try out implemented a
chapter as the teaching materials. Each chapter develops four language
skills integratively and has different topic. The description of the try out covers 1 place, 2 time, 3 participant, and 4 implementation. The

and the class was so noisy. Sometimes the teacher asked question to the researcher about some materials in the draft
book. The teacher also did not pay attention in some instructions in the draft book which made the teaching and
learning process seemed confuse. Those problems occurred because the teacher and the students got the first time using
Nursing Assistant Project draft book and thus the teacher was not accustomed to apply the learning process using the draft.
Moreover, in some exercises there were some dialogues which had medical phrases and words which seemed newly for the
teacher and the students. Beside, all the difficult words can be seen in the vocabulary focus of the draft book.
Actually, the students enjoyed to learn all the materials and activities in chapter 1. There was no big problem when did
the activities. They were actively involved when given an activity and project in group work. They felt very enthusiasm
to do the project speaking conversation because they became a nurse, a patient, and a doctor as their nursing program.

the expressions in the dialogue easily. Meanwhile, in activity 6

beda kerja kelompok dengan kerja individu. Yang jelas instruksinya cukup membantu siswa dari menentukan

benda yang kami pelajari itu kan bahannya terbuat dari plastik atau kayu. Kemudian kalau
untuk obat itu cukup pengenalan saja kalau untuk siswa jurusan keperawatan kan tidak perlu terlalu

nggih Pak.

came from native speaker; just need some repeating to make the students understandable. The following was the statement
about it.
Kalau menurut Bapak yaa listening sudah bagus kok dan tidak terlalu sulit, cuma memang klo baru pertama
dengar memang belum familiar jadi harus diulang beberapa kali supaya terbiasa. Jadi menurut saya tidak
perlu ada suatu revisi yang terlalu drastis. Mungkin mau diganti seperti apapun kalau yang berbicara
native ya akan sama saja hasilnya. Kalau untuk ukuran native saja itu sudah diperlambat berbicaranya klo mau
diperlambat lagi yaa jangan-jangan nanti malah ngomongnya jadi gagu itu.
