Summary: | Introduction: Nature-based and outdoor learning approaches have shown promising results in enhancing English language skills and student engagement. These methods allow students to explore and interact directly with their environment. Interactive e-books have shown promise in enhancing English language skills across various educational levels. Objective: The research aims to determine the effectiveness of interactive e-books integrating nature-based and outdoor learning to improve students’ English skills and physical engagement. Methodology: This is descriptive quantitative research. The data collection techniques are interviews, questionnaires, and tests. Results: Based on the analysis, the integrated interactive e-book based on nature-based learning and local wisdom is valid and can be used in the learning process. The average value for each aspect is 4.2, which indicates that the e-book is valid. Discussion: The results of hypothesis testing and gain scores show that students in the experimental class who learned using the integrated interactive e-book based on nature-based learning and local wisdom experienced a more significant increase in learning outcomes than students in the control class. The average student score in the experimental class was 70%, a high category, while the average student score in the control class was 50%, a medium category.
Conclusions: So, it can be concluded that integrated interactive e-books based on nature-based learning and local wisdom in English learning effectively increase students’ English skills.
