class, the participants should be those who really engage themselves in out-of- class activities. Four learners were chosen to be interviewed with some
considerations from the English teacher as mentioned before. 4.
Constructing the Instrument Ary et al. 2010 state that two basic types of data gathering instruments
are interviews and questionnaires. The researcher used those two instruments in this study. The questionnaire instrument in this study was the close-ended
questionnaire. Vaus 2002 points out that, close ended questionnaire is easier to code and quicker to answer, therefore close-ended questionnaire was selected as
the main data gathering technique. In interviewing the respondents, the researcher used the informal interview
but based on structured questions. The interviewer read the questions to the respondents in a face-to-face setting and recorded the answer. The researcher also
prepared the additional questions when the responses seemed incomplete or not entirely relevant.
5. Conducting the Survey
In conducting the survey, the step also included training the users of the instrument, interviewing subjects or distributing questionnaires to the subjects,
and verifying the accuracy of the data gathered Ary et al. 2010. The researcher distributed the questionnaire to all the students and interviewed four of them.
In order to obtain the data, the researcher asked permission to the school to do the research and got the permission to do the research in three classes. Then,
the researcher explained this research to the English teacher. After that, the PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
researcher came to the school on 7 June 2016 to gather the data by distributing the questionnaire. The students were informed about this research and were asked to
fill in the questionnaire honestly. The researcher distributed 81 questionnaires to 81 eighth grade students of
Joannes Bosco Junior High School, Yogyakarta and as a result, all the 81 questionnaire sheets were returned to the researcher. All of the students as the
respondents filled in the questionnaires. 6.
Processing the Data
The researcher interpreted the data in the form of an average score and contrasting the findings with the previous research. In processing the data, the
researcher analyzed the data to obtain the information which can be used to answer the research problem and draw a conclusion.
