In this digital era, learning materials that include adaptation materials like authentic materials occupy a focal place in the success of the EFL teaching and learning context. Thus, teachers have an onus to adapt the teaching materials and do more effort in improving the teaching materials as materials designers, developers, evaluators, and explorers to cater to students' needs for developing students' English ability to achieve the learning goals and curriculum objective. This study investigated how Indonesian secondary teachers viewed authentic materials in EFL classrooms whether they employed authentic materials as one of EFL materials adaptation or considering the importance of reallife authentic language exposure in the 21st-century learning. The data were collected through interview with three English teachers as the participants. The findings indicated that two out of three teachers utilized authentic materials as their main and only sources in their teaching. © 2020 ACM.
