Data Gathering Techniques English instructional reading materials using interactive models for the tenth grade students of SMK BOPKRI 1 Yogyakarta.

mean or average point X is obtained by counting the sum of the score divided by the number of the subjects N. The formula is: N X X Where X : mean the average point X : scores N : number of scores : sum or add The formulation was used to analyze the answer in each number. For instance, there were eight respondents and the first question asked was whether the designed materials were suitable for students in that level or not. The answers might be like this 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 3, 3, 3. Then to look for the mean, the researcher used this formula { N X X }. From the data above, the mean was 3.53. The median, the score that was at the centre of the distribution after the data were arranged in rank order, was 4. Moreover, the rest of the data were analyzed similarly from the data above. The standard point used to measure whether the designed materials appropriate or not were as follows. Very good : 3.5 – 4.0 Good : 3.0 – 3.4 Average : 2.5 – 2.9 Poor : 2.0 – 2.4 Very Poor : 0 – 1.9 PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI Therefore, the researcher concluded that most of the respondents agreed that the designed materials were suitable for the tenth grade students in SMK BOPKRI 1 Yogyakarta.
