The pop-up book was considered as feasible to apply if the score is more
than 60. The pop-up book should be revised if the score is less than 60.
G. Research Procedure
The procedure used in this research was adapted from the RD model proposed by Dick and Carey in Gall and Borg 2003: 570. Some modifications
were made. Thus, there were eight steps conducted to create a pop-up book as a kind of instructional media in this research. They are explained as follows.
1. Conducting Need Analysis
In this step, the researcher got some information related to the students and the teacher’s needs to facilitate the reading activity. The researcher conducted an
interview and class observation, and distributed questionnaire to the students to collect the information. These steps were necessary as the guidance in designing
the appropriate media for the teaching of reading. The analysis of the data was done in order to match the media developed with the teacher and students’ needs.
2. Constructing Instructional Design
In this step, the researcher formulated the instructional design of the media. Some important aspect, such as competency standards, basic
competencies, specification of learning objectives, indicators, construction of the content materials, identification of learning strategies, determination of the
teaching and learning activities, the selection of the media, and the construction of the evaluation were considered. The design was formulated based on the needs
analysis obtained in the first step and also theories. Moreover, the materials were
collected from some sources, such as from textbook and the internet. The collected materials were then selected and arranged in order to create the learning
materials. The output from this step was a course grid.
3. Designing the Media
In this step, the draft of the pop-up book as the media was made. There were two main parts of this step. They were designing the media and designing
the instruction on how to use the media. a.
Designing the media In designing the media, the researcher did two steps. They are transferring
the idea and editing the illustration of the pictures. In transferring the idea, the topic and materials that would be presented in the pop-up
book were selected based on the course grid that has been made. The next step was editing the
illustration. The choices of pictures, colors, backgrounds were included in this step. The illustration was chosen and edited using the Corel X3, Photoshop, and
PhotoScape programs. b.
Designing the storyboard In this step, the storyboard of the media was made by the researcher. It
explained the details of the pictures, the texts, and the material presented. The storyboard also explained how the media worked in every part, how the elements
worked, and how to manipulate the movable elements to make them work well.
4. Developing the Media
