<br/><br/> This study aimed to determine the learning experiences and challenges that<br/>Bachelor of Technical Vocational Teacher Education - Beauty Care and Wellness<br/>(BTVTED-BCW) students have with the current instructional material used in<br/>studying Massage Therapy course. This addresses the challenges faced by<br/>students using the current reflexology chart, which lacks practical application and<br/>caters to a limited range of learning styles. The objective of this study was to design<br/>and develop a Foot Reflexology Model Board as instructional material in Massage<br/>Therapy, particularly on studying Foot Reflexology which is one of the topics<br/>included in Massage Therapy course. The study utilizes a Design-Based Research<br/>(DBR) approach which consists of problem identification, design and development,<br/>iterative refinement, and evaluation.<br/>The findings revealed a general mean of 4.68 on the general acceptability<br/>of the Foot Reflexology Model Board, indicating a “highly agree” when it comes on<br/>the Appearance, Durability, Functionality, Perceived Ease of Use, Instructional<br/>Applicability of the developed instructional material. And the evaluation on the<br/>student’s satisfaction revealed a 4.52 general mean which indicates a “highly<br/>agree” rating based on the likert scale rating description. These results<br/>demonstrated the potential benefit of the Foot Reflexology Model Board in the<br/>educational setting and its potential to refine the learning and practical experience<br/>of the students in Massage Therapy.
