order to make them participate actively during the class. In addition, the use of media was really important to get the students’ attention.
3. To other Researchers
The research conducted was still limited by time. It would be better if there was the same research conducted in longer time so that the
students’ improvement could be seen more. Moreover, the understanding of the actions taken was the important thing for the researcher. It was the
way to be successful in research. The steps of research such as preparation, implementation, and finishing should be passed orderly so that there was
no misconception happened. The best researcher would be never satisfied with his or her findings; there was always problem in a solution.
