Abstract

One big enemy in learning English as a foreign language was boredom. The learners would get bored as they had to learn English materials they already knew from merely bookish materials with conventional ways of learning. One alternative idea to overcome boredom and to create joyful learning is by developing intercultural materials and also malting them learn actively. These materials would evoke the learners' curiosity and motivation to learn. They would gain not only English proficiency but also the intercultural knowledge and understanding. In Indonesian contexts, for example, it's possible to develop intercultural materials for learning English since Indonesia is a very rich multicultural country. And learners in one class of English might consist of mixed learners from different regions and culture.
