English is vital for ITN Malang's world-class vision and international collaborations. This study aims to identify the needs of educators in developing English speaking teaching materials through the initial stages of R&D. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were gathered through interviews and questionnaires with 30 education personnels and 4 instructors, and analyzed using descriptive statistics and thematic analysis. The result showed that participants are highly interested in speaking skills, yet the available materials do not meet their needs. Respondents emphasized the importance of integrating grammar, visual elements, and clear instructions in digital teaching materials. The interview revealed limited opportunities for practice and a strong preference for interactive and independent digital learning. These findings confirm the need to develop an accessible, interactive, and relevant E-Module Speaking to the characteristics of adult learners. This study recommends further development and validation stages to assess the module's effectiveness in improving speaking skills.
