This development process was validated by four media and material validators, and the media was suitable for teaching and learning use at SMA Plus Efarina Simalungun. From needs analysis, students had difficulties in learning French because the learning methods were oriented to lectures/demonstrations and discussions although students needed technology-based media which could became solutions and had several advantages, such as, it was easy to use anytime and anywhere, simple (not heavy on storage), interactive, and complete with video, audio, text, quizzes, etc. This paper was adapted from ADDIE model proposed by Molenda (2008) although this paper only discussed the development stage. In the material validation process, an average score of 87% was obtained so it was categorized as very good.
