2. The instruments for preliminary field testing
The instruments for preliminary field testing were the first post- design questionnaires. They were distributed to one English teacher, two
English instructors, and one lecturer. The objectives of the questionnaires were close-ended and open-ended questions. The open-ended questions, in
this study, were employed to gain authenticity, richness, honesty, and depth of response to the designed materials Louis Cohen, Lawrence
Manion, and Keith Morrison, 2000:225. The questionnaires were distributed in order to get some inputs, feedbacks, and valuable
suggestions about the designed materials. The detailed form of the post design questionnaire can be seen in the appendix.
3. The instruments for main field testing
The instruments for main field testing were the second post-design questionnaires. They were distributed to the sixth grade students of
elementary school. The questionnaires were distributed in order to get the feedback from the students and to know how the product worked.
D. Data Gathering Technique
The data were gathered from some observations in teaching learning activities in class, questionnaires, and interview.
