Abstract

Need Analysis is one of the pivotal parts in developing material. It has great role in determining the material for the learners. This research intends to collect the information about the students’ opinions on the criteria of a good material and to explore the students’ perception about the use of local wisdom in developing English Tourism material. Qualitative approach was used as the design. This research was conducted at a private Islamic university and a state Islamic institute in Kediri and Tulungagung, Indonesia. The participants were 89 students, consisting of 24 males and 65 female students of English for Tourism. The data of lecturers’ suggestion was collected through interview. Meanwhile, the questionnaire was carried out to collect the data about students’ need on the criteria of good book. The result showed that there are five aspects which must be considered in developing material, namely aims of tourism subject; design and organization related of the lay out and material order; language content such as grammar, language style, convention and structure of language; four skills (reading, speaking, writing, and listening); relevant topic with tourism; and local wisdom. This finding is hopefully able to enrich students’ knowledge and experience about their own country.
