This study aimed to develop and evaluate an ESP-based flipbook integrated with Wayground to support reading comprehension of Grade XI Computer and Networking Engineering students. The research was conducted at a vocational high school in East Java, Indonesia, during the 2025/2026 academic year. The participants consisted of one class of Grade XI Computer and Networking Engineering students. This study employed a Research and Development (R&D) study with the ADDIE model, which included the Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation stages. The research instruments included guided interview questions for English teachers, an expert validation sheet to assess the content and media quality of the product, and a students' questionnaire to obtain learners' responses toward the developed flipbook. The collected qualitative data were analyzed thematically, while the quantitative data from the validation sheets and questionnaires were analyzed descriptively using percentages and mean scores. The results indicate that developed product of flipbook was considered valid and appropriate for use as an English learning medium for CNE students. The product successfully combined vocationally relevant content, clear learning activities, and interactive digital features based on expert validation. Students also responded positively to the accessibility, attractiveness, and usefulness of the flipbook. Therefore, this study concludes that the ESP-based flipbook integrated with Wayground can serve as a suitable learning resource to support reading comprehension in vocational English classes.
