Abstract

Vocabulary mastery is a fundamental skill that plays a crucial role in English language learning. Students with dyslexia often face difficulties in recognizing letter symbols, retaining vocabulary, and understanding the relationship between sounds and written forms. Therefore, they require learning media that are adaptive and aligned with their specific needs and characteristics. This study aims to develop flashcard learning media, in both printed and digital formats, to support English vocabulary mastery for students with dyslexia. The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model, limited to three stages: Analysis, Design, and Development. Data were collected through validation by material experts, media experts, and practitioners using questionnaires, and analyzed descriptively and quantitatively. The validation results showed that the flashcard media obtained an average feasibility score of 90,41%, categorized as “highly feasible” in terms of usefulness, appropriateness, accuracy, and suitability. Thus, the developed flashcard media is deemed feasible for supporting English vocabulary mastery among students with dyslexia, particularly on the theme of activities before and after sleeping.
