Strategic development of mobile learning-assisted academic writing materials for society 5.0

Abstract

Learning in the era of Society 5.0 is increasingly shaped by rapid advancements in information technology, necessitating innovative strategies to support academic instruction. This study responds to the demand for adaptive learning tools by developing mobile learning-assisted teaching materials for academic writing. Framed as developmental research, the study outlines a structured approach to designing and validating these materials. The process began with an input phase involving curriculum analysis and needs assessment from 162 students and 7 lecturers. This informed the drafting of content using a storyboard format, which was organized into individual scenes. The draft underwent validation by two material experts and two media experts. Expert evaluations confirmed the feasibility of the materials, with assessments ranging from good to excellent. The final output is a functional prototype of academic writing materials incorporating mobile learning features, created using the Kodular platform. This research demonstrates the potential of integrating mobile technology into academic writing instruction to meet the evolving educational demands of the Society 5.0 era.
