Abstract

Abstract : Macroeconomics course is one of the compulsory courses that students of the Diploma Business Study must take in polytechnics. The previous Teaching and Learning Method (PdP) used  Power Point  slide presentations provided by course lecturers as well as reference books available in the library. Although this method is acceptable to students, it can be considered as a traditional method that is still used today and it has its own challenges in the era of the Covid 19 pandemic. This method is seen as no longer providing high traction towards teaching and learning (PdP) to students. Hence, to arouse interest and attract students' attention to this course, an innovation called eBook: Integrated Macroeconomics has been introduced Through this innovation, students will be able to learn  the Macroeconomics  Course by using  the Flipping Book  software. With the use of Flipping Book, it makes PdP for Macroeconomics courses more exciting and enjoyable by including interactive elements in  this eBook. There are videos uploaded into this eBook. In addition, there are also questions provided as a reference to students as well. This innovation is expected to improve students' understanding, make it easier for students to review and make  the Macroeconomics  Course an interesting and easy-to-understand course. Questionnaires on students' perception of the use of e-books were conducted and the findings showed that a large number of students agreed that the use of e-books can increase interest and focus in teaching and learning. These findings prove that relevant e-books are used as teaching aids and should be expanded in order to achieve positive impact in teaching and learning activities.
