摘要：This research is aimed at investigating the effectiveness of Adobe Presenter which contributes to the vocabulary and grammatical structure acquisition among students taking German language study in public and private universities in Malang. During the first year, the researchers focused on identifying and analysing the competency needs of college students who use Adobe Presenter e-learning and its variant. Besides, the researchers also worked on the development of teaching and learning media for distant learning or e-learning needs. The development phase includes the ‘building’ stage, which allowed researchers to develop the learning components by arranging the learning materials, as well as the reading texts, in the form of printed material, review, and learning strategy. In ‘modeling’ stage, the researchers could come up with the revised product since it had been evaluated by the experts assigned by the researchers. The other activities conducted by the researchers in this study were: gaining expert’s validation, conducting try-out, and conducting Focused Group Discussion (FGD) for internal evaluation with research team and peers. The next stage done by the researchers was the ‘maintaining’ stage which includes social validity measure. Social validity measure is focused on identifying the significance of research subjects towards the research objectives, the appropriateness of research subjects with the research procedure, and the influence of the media to meet the students’ needs. Lastly, in ‘diffusion’ stage, the researchers disseminated and demonstrated the research results based on the stages in the development of Adobe Presenter.
