Abstract

Textbooks have undergone evolution. Textbooks can now be combined with various digital learning resources and features, such as hybrid formats. The research explores the need to develop hybrid textbooks as an innovative, technology-based, interactive model by optimizing microlearning and adaptive learning, which is an interesting topic. This mixed-method research with a sequential explanatory design was conducted at DPCE UNIMED using purposive sampling. Observation, interviews, document analysis, and questionnaires gathered data. The qualitative data were examined utilizing an interactive model. The questionnaire responses were evaluated utilizing simple percentage analysis. The research found instructional needs based on curriculum changes in the 2025 revised OBE. This has implications for harmonizing Profiles, CPL, CPMK, sub-CPMK, and assessments, which require adjustments to materials, activities, and student learning experiences. In addition, the material presented is relatively complex (45%) to understand, which is caused by presentations that are considered ordinary (41%) and less interesting (36%), which reflect the learning characteristics of Gen Z. Students need appropriate material design and packaging. Therefore, there is an instructional and student need to develop textbooks based on microlearning and adaptive learning.
