5. The Technique of Data Analysis

In this study, the developer used qualitative and quantitative data. The qualitative data were obtained from the interviews and observation. Then, the quantitative data were taken from the questionnaires. To analyze the data qualitatively, the developer used a data analysis technique proposed by Miles and Huberman as cited in Sugiyono 2010:337- 345. They stated that the activities in analyzing the qualitative data include data reduction, data display and conclusion drawing. Table.6 The Data Analysis Technique a. Data reduction The process of transforming masses of data into small number of categories b. Data display Organizing information that permits conclusion to draw an action c. Data conclusion Deciding what things mean To analyze the data quantitatively, the developer used frequencies + percentages. They were analyzed by calculating the percentage of each 34 answer. The answer with the highest percentage is considered as the representing target’s actual condition. The percentage is calculated by summing up the total of the respondents and then the result is multiplied by 100. The formula of percentages is presented below. P = f x 100 N P = percentage f = frequency N = number of respondent 100 = fixed numbers 35

CHAPTER IV FINDINGS AND DISCUSSION

A. FINDINGS OF DEVELOPMENT

In this development, there are seven steps in developing the program adopted from the RD cycle by Borg Gall 1983:775. The steps are collecting research and informationneeds survey and needs analysis, planning, writing the first draf, evaluating the first draft expert judgment, writing the second draft, conducting main field testing implementation, evaluating, revising, and writing the final draft of the program developed.
