Abstract

It is a preliminary study to analyze the need assessment of learning materials in English for Specific Purpose (ESP) courses in Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Science (FMNS) Universitas Negeri Surabaya. Using an explanatory type of research regarding the need for teaching materials in the ESP course. The research subjects are students of FMNS Unesa who have programmed the ESP (English for Math, English for Physics, English for Chemistry, English for Biology, and English for Science) course. Collected data using a questionnaire on the need for teaching materials carried out by an online survey. In learning English for Specific, the majority use the discussion learning model, direct instruction, and cooperative learning. Based on the results of the survey questionnaire, 90% of students experienced the greatest difficulties when explaining the material and practice during the learning process. These obstacles can be overcome when learning applies innovative learning models such as Problem Based Learning, Project Based Learning and Inquiry Learning. However, this has not received great attention and has not been resolved, especially if ESP learning is done online. The suggested alternative solution is to use teaching materials in the ESP learning process. The teaching materials used are in the form of modules.
