pelajaran Bahasa Inggris.” Respondent4 I used the vocabulary, Miss,
but I only used it when I asked the teacher during the English class.
2. The Students’ Opinions on the Tasks
In this section, the researcher gathered the students’ opinions on the tasks. The students’ opinions were needed to measure whether the tasks were good
enough or not. The opinions included the students’ opinions on the task difficulty
and the task roles. The task roles were whether the task could improve the students’ vocabulary mastery and their understanding on English subject or not.
a. The Opinion on the Task Attractiveness
Figure 4.3 presents the result of the first statement of the students’ opinions on the tasks. The first statement intended to investigate whether the
students agreed or disagreed that improving the vocabulary mastery though tasks was an interesting thing. Fifteen students or eighty eight percent of the
respondents agreed with this statement. However, there were two students who disagreed. Those students were the students who were not able to achieve the
passing grade score after the implementation.

b. The Opinion on the Task Instructions
Fifteen students agreed that the instruction of the tasks was understandable. It was because of the use of simple and clear language in the
instruction. According to Willis 2003, the instruction-giving is a truly communicative use of the target language p. 44. Therefore, the instructions
should be understandable.
c. The Opinion on the Task Goals
The third statement was about the goal of the tasks. The result can be seen in Figure 4.4. Sixteen students or ninety four percent of the respondents agreed
that the tasks given had clear goals. Referring to Willis 2003, every task in the implementation of Task-Based Learning should have a clear specific objective
that must be achieved by the students p. 24.
