Abstract

Materials development plays a pivotal role in a coaching program. It needs to be prevented from coach-centred material development. This paper describes coachee-involving materials development in a coaching program for EFL teachers in the context of Indonesian Curriculum and its effectiveness in improving the teachers’ pedagogical competence. Data were collected through observation, Focus Group Discussion with 6 EFL Junior High School teachers and documentation. The data were analysed through interactive model and Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Findings exposed that instructional designs dealing with teaching four language skills, vocabulary, and grammar are primarily needed by the teachers. The materials are effective in improving the teachers’ teaching practices, which is reflected in the influence of the improvement of the teachers’ pedagogical competence on the enhancement of the students’ outcomes. This study contributes to the literature of teacher professional development on some considerations underlying the design of materials for enhancing teachers’ pedagogical competence.
