The provision of appropriate learning materials is essential in curriculum enactment as the prescribed competences and learning method are usually advised in textbooks supplied to support its implementation. However, government-supplied textbook cannot always ad­dress schools’ and students’ different needs. Teachers are, therefore, required to have the skills to develop their own learning materials to meet curriculum. In Indonesia, higher or­der thinking skills (HOTS) and technology are required to be integrated in the teaching and learning activities of all subjects including English. It is, then, important to survey teacher’s knowledge in materials development to help them acquire the required skills in developing materials in line with curriculum. This paper presents a survey study on junior secondary school teachers in Yogyakarta about their technological pedagogical content knowledge. A questionnaire was administered followed by an interview with selected teach­ers for further elaboration. The instrument was adapted from Schmidt et al (2009) and aimed to reveal teacher’s knowledge on teaching and technology and how they apply this knowledge into materials development processes. The finding suggests aspects of teacher’s knowledge that need further training and possible effective methods for their training as well as professional development design.Keywords:  curriculum, materials development, teacher’s knowledge

This paper is aimed at proposing a curriculum and task design for teaching reading to students of an English teacher training. The curriculum discusses the needs and context analysis, goals, objectives, beliefs, content organization, task design, learning assessment and evaluation of the course. While being skill-oriented on one hand, the curriculum works towards a more process or discourse-oriented design. This is done to cater for the needs to build students' reading skills, understanding of text's construction and positive attitudes towards reading as not merely a means of acquiring a full command in the target language but also a tool to access knowledge and advancement.

Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh kurangnya penggunaan E-LKPD dalam pembelajaran teks eksposisi pada tingkat SMA. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis permintaan Lembar Kerja Peserta Didik Elektronik (E-LKPD) yang berbasis kearifan lokal. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah deskriptif-kualitatif. Subjek penelitian ini adalah kepala sekolah dan guru SMA di Kota Padang. Alat pengumpulan data menggunakan pedoman wawancara dan dokumentasi. Analisis data menggunakan analisis Miles & Huberman, langkah-langkah analisis data adalah reduksi data, penyajian data, dan validasi data. Temuan penelitian ini mencakup tiga hal, yang meliputi: (1) analisis permasalahan yang mencakup permasalahan kurikulum, dan penerapan E-LKPD di SMA, (2) analisis konteks, dan (3) analisis solusi permasalahan. Temuan penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa E-LKPD di sekolah belum memenuhi syarat untuk membuat E-LKPD yang benar. Oleh karena itu, sekolah memang membutuhkan E-LKPD yang sesuai untuk pembelajarannya, yang disesuaikan dengan kurikulum yang ada, dalam hal ini adalah Kurikulum Merdeka. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini diharapkan dapat menjadi acuan untuk membuat atau mengembangkan E-LKPD berbasis HOTS dan berkearifan lokal sebagai media pembelajaran teks eksposisi pada tingkat SMA.
