Exploring an Inclusive Indonesian Language Digital Book Model Based on UDL to Support Translation Students’ Learning

The growing need for inclusive, contextual, and adaptive Indonesian language learning resources calls for the development of a digital book model based on Universal Design for Learning (UDL), particularly for translation education. This study aims to design an initial UDL-based digital book model to support translation students’ learning, using Sugiyono’s (2012) R&D method and Spradley’s (1997) qualitative analysis. The proposed model includes four main innovations: (1) material innovation—focused on accurate spelling, vocabulary, sentence structure, and contextual translation exercises; (2) pedagogical innovation—through multimodal representation, interactive engagement, and flexible expression modes for all learners, including those with special needs; (3) glocal innovation—highlighting local cultural values within globally oriented translation content; and (4) technological innovation—featuring interactive multimedia, accessibility-based adaptive interfaces, and AI-supported feedback for personalized, independent learning. This model provides a foundational step toward inclusive, culturally grounded, and technologically enhanced digital textbooks suited to the diverse challenges of translation learning in the digital era.
