State University of Jakarta
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to obtain the need to develop teaching materials for writing descriptive texts based on a genre-based approach (GBA) with hypermedia. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach by involving 64 students of Class VII MTs Negeri 20 Jakarta and two Indonesian teachers as respondents. The data of this study was collected through observation, interviews, and document analysis. The findings of this study indicate that there are deficiencies in students^ ability to describe objects in detail, formulate ideas, and develop vocabulary. Generally, teachers only rely on textbooks and powerpoint presentations, while the application of the GBA stage and the use of hypermedia are still limited. The results of this study also confirm the need to develop teaching materials for writing hypemedia-based descriptive texts that are interactive, flexible, multimodal, and can provide quick feedback. Therefore, it is hoped that this teaching material can improve students^ descriptive text writing skills in accordance with the demands of learning development in the digital era.
