The Web-published Academic English Coursebook
In 2016, the webmaster created and maintained this website to host lessons on speed reading and comprehension. The webmaster's experience in conducting research on speed reading and comprehension is scientifically published under the title "Reading speed and comprehension enhancement in hybrid learning delivery mode".
In 2020, through design-based research, the webmaster shifted the services of this website to accommodate Indonesian university students in learning English for general purposes and English for specific-academic purposes.
In 2023, the webmaster enrolled this website into development phase. The design of this website applies content-focused design. I use the term so called 'the content-focused design' to refer to the flat design where the content of the website dominates the appearance. It is aimed at providing you the distraction-free experience while reading. The width of the content area is also made sufficient for eye-fixation while reading. The documentation on how this website was designed and developed is available on a journal article entitled "Prototyping The Web-published Academic English Coursebook for Indonesian Primary School Teacher Education Study Program Students".
