Abstract
The use of technology in education is believed effective to stimulate and improve students- comprehension, engagement, and autonomy in learning. It can also be the answer of the problem where time allocation cannot accommodate the whole material. Therefore, this study focuses on developing an English video-based material as the main media in teaching English to the freshmen. It is also intended to measure the improvement of the students- mastery of English. This study applies Multimedia Development Life Cycle (MDLC) model which consists of six steps, namely concept, design, obtaining materials, assembly, try-out, and distribution. IT involves the freshmen or first semester of university students from any kinds of major. The findings shows that the designed-video can support the teaching learning progress in the terms of content, instructional plan, and technical production which improves not only the students- performance both in written and oral but also their positive attitude in learning.
