According to Nevid 2013 motivation is defined as the process that initiates, guides, and maintains goal-oriented behaviors. Motivation is what causes
human to act, whether it is getting a glass of water to reduce thirst or reading a book to gain knowledge. Theory of motivation is important for the researcher
because one of the purposes of the research is to increase students’ interest in
learning text types in English. Through this theory, the researcher wants to make the learning media interesting, so it can increase the
students’ motivation to learn English.
B. Theoretical Framework
According to Kurikulum 2013, types of text that would be learned by junior high school students are narrative, recount, descriptive, report, and
procedure text. This study dealt with designing a set of Text type Board. This learning
media can help the students get the information about text typesin English. To conduct this research, the researcher needed several theories to solve the research
problems. The first one is theory of young adolescent by Wilson and Horch 2002. The researcher paid attention to some factors affecting the
students’ understanding about text types. Since students in junior high school are young
adolescents, teachers have to know about developmental characteristics of young adolescents that have been grouped into four categories: physical, intellectual,
social, and emotional. Especially in intellectual areas. This theory helped the PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI

research which is junior high school. After knowing the characteristics of the object, the researcher also paid
attention to the techniques for teaching reading and writing in text type topic. Based on www.nclrc.org and Verner 2009, there are several techniques in
teaching reading and writing. Reading techniques focuses on the reading process, integrating reading strategies, and using authentic materials and approaches. The
writing techniques there are brainstorming, free writing, and cluster maping. The researcher needed those theories to answer the second research question especially
for the quality of the media as a support in teaching text types material. The theories were also necessary to make sure that the learning media is proper to be a
source of knowledge. Also talked about the
media’s effect for the students. The researcher needed the theory of motivation by Nevid to implement the effect as a motivation.
According to Nevid 2013 motivation is defined as the process that initiates, guides, and maintains goal-oriented behaviors. Motivation is what causes us to
act. Hence, this theory was needed to help researcher answer the second research question.
Then, to get a good quality of the learning media, the researcher used questionnaire as a source of the data to develop the Text Types Board. The
