18 statements. Column two also represented negative perception; it meant the
respondents disagree with the statement. Column three represented positive perception; it meant the respondent agree with the perception. Column four
represented very positive perception; it meant the respondents strongly agree with the statements. In part IV, participants were asked to write down their opinion
and some suggestions on the teaching learning processes in Book Report Course. The questionnaire form was attached in the appendix 1.
2. Interview
The researcher conducted the interview to verify the data and to dig more information and perception on Book Report Course. The researcher had made a
guideline for the interview questions, and there were nine questions to be answered by the respondents. The questions demanded the respondents to explain
and elaborate their answers in questionnaire clearly. The interview asked for the respondents’ explanation and the reason from their answer. The interview was
done in Bahasa Indonesia in order to avoid misunderstanding and to make the respondents easier to express their words. The blueprint of the interview was
attached in the appendix 2.
D. Data Gathering Technique
The researcher used questionnaires and interview to gather the data. Before distributing the questionnaires, the researcher made sure that the
participants were the students from academic year 2009 who had taken Book Report Course in the second semester. The researcher distributed the

19 questionnaires in the end of the speaking class in order not to disturb the teaching-
learning activity. After examining all the questionnaires, the researcher had four participants to be interviewed. The four interviewees were taken randomly. The
researcher considered that four interviewees were representative for they represented very negative, negative, positive and very positive perception. The
interview was done in two days. In order not to lose some points in the interview, the research took some notes and recorded the interview.
E. Data Analysis Technique
As it had been explained before, the participants were going to show their perception in filling the questionnaires by putting ticks in some column. The
researcher counted the value of the participants’ choice to obtain their perception. Strongly agree and agree show positive perception, disagree and strongly disagree
show negative perception. Strongly agree values four points, agree values three points, disagree values three points, and strongly disagree values one point. There
were 32 statements in the closed-ended part. Then the maximum score for each: 1= strongly disagree
: 32 32 x 1 2= disagree
: 64 32 x 2 3= agree
: 96 32 x 3 4= strongly agree
: 128 32 x 4 From the calculation, it showed that score 128 – 104 meant very good perception,
103 – 79 showed good perception, 78 – 55 showed bad perception, and 56 – 32

20 meant very bad perception. Therefore, positive perception was between 79 to 128
and negative perception laid between 78 up to 32 for every number. Next, the researcher obtained the final score for every item. The researcher
multiplied the total of respondents in every classification to its point. Then the researcher added them up. After that, the final score was divided by total
respondents to obtain the average. After counting the average for every number, the research classified it. The researcher classified average 4.00 – 3.25 into very
good perception, average 3.24 – 2.50 into good perception, average 2.49 – 1.75 into bad perception and average 1.74 – 1.00 into very bad perception. It meant the
positive perception lay between average 4.00 – 2.50 and negative perception lay between 2.49 – 1.00.
The researcher did coding in examining the open-ended questions. The researcher read all the answers and wrote down the various answers. Then the
researcher classified the answers. For the interview data, the researcher first analyzed the open-ended part of
the questionnaire. The researcher chose four questionnaires based on the perception on the first three parts and the answers of the open-ended. After
deciding the interviewees, the researcher made appointment to interview them. In interviewing, the researcher recorded the process. The recording was meant to
help the researcher to get the insight of the interview. Then the researcher listened to the recording for several times and attempted to write the conversation. The
researcher made the blueprint of the interview. Then the researcher analyzed the written interview. The blueprint of the interview was attached in appendix.
