The Second Research Respondents’ General Evaluation and Suggestions

F. Revision the Instructional Materials.

The result of the materials evaluation will be used as an important input for revising the instructional materials. This will then lead to the final step of this study.

1. The Second Research Respondents’ General Evaluation and Suggestions

From the questionnaires distributed and the interviews conducted, the second survey research respondents’ general opinions and suggestions on the design of the instructional materials for the students of the Dentistry faculty are presented in this part. a. The second Survey Research Respondents’ General Evaluation Based on the questionnaires, the second survey research respondents’ general opinions on the design of the instructional materials for the Dentistry students are as follows: • Materials are relevant to the needs of Dentistry students. • The material design is well structured and developed that is relevant and not too sophisticated for the students. • It suits the objectives formulated, but the level of difficulty is slightly higher than the students’ actual competence. • The materials are quite good and interesting • The materials are thoughtfully designed and sufficiently developed. • The materials are interesting as they cover many different readings, tasks, and grammar and writing assignments.
