Abstract

This study discussed the effectiveness of the learning process in the English for Specific Purposes (ESP) program. The purpose of this study was to understand lecturers' views on what they expected and needed for textbooks in English (ESP) courses for agricultural students. Three lecturers from three different universities were involved in the study. This research used descriptive qualitative methods. The needs analysis was carried out through semistructured interviews, and the data were collected and analyzed through coding and categorization techniques based on question categories. This research revealed several core aspects that appropriate the expectations of lecturers, namely, their appearance and practicality; presentation system; order of work on exercise and/or activities; topics and objectives; and context, texts, and language. These aspects are based on the needs and expectations of English lecturers for agricultural students, so the results of this study can be useful because they synchronize lecturer expectations and the content of textbooks.
