The instruments used in the need analysis were a questionnaire, an interview guide, and a classroom observation sheet. The students’ data were calculated in percentages, and those from the teacher interview and classroom observation were described qualitatively. The data from the need analysis
were used as a basic consideration for material development. The story of ”Golden Cucumber” was chosen based on the result of need analysis which most of the students did not know about the ”Golden Cucumber” story because moreover, they like to read foreign folktales. From the”Golden Cucumber” story,
the students can learn to keep survive when they meet problems and not give up. Questionnaires were provided for the validation of language and the validation of the media. The result of these questionnaires was used to revise the product before the try-out. Some revisions are based on the expert’s validation stage, such as grammatical errors in the narration of the story, worksheet, and unsuitable between text with some pictures. The expert and teacher data were analysed qualitatively, while data from the try-out were analysed qualitatively and quantitatively. The try-out was conducted once on Thursday, 9 October 2020. It was carried out in Class X Networking 4 that consisted of thirty-nine students.
