4. Interview
In conducting this research, particularly in answering the first and the second problem, the researcher would use the interview as the instrument. The
interview was conducted after the researcher implemented one lesson unit. It means that the interview was conducted four times. Before conducting the
interview, the researcher explained the aim of the interview to the students who had been chosen as the respondents. The researcher chose five to six students for
each interview. In every interview, the students were chosen based on their English proficiency level. Among those five to six students, there were low,
medium and high English proficiency levels. The researcher decided to choose the students based on their English proficiency level in order to get rich data.
The interview would be a guided interview. Therefore, the researcher prepared the list of questions to be used in the interviews. The list of the interview
questions were attached in appendices. Furthermore, the interview would be conducted more or less five to ten
minutes. The guided interview would be recorded using MP4. Besides, the researcher also took notes during conducting the interviews. The interviews were
used to answer the first and the second problem of the study.
D. Data Gathering Technique
In conducting the research, the researcher would implement CIRC using a set of reading instructional materials designed by Santi Dyah Ikasari Ikasari,
2005. The researcher used the materials in order to provide appropriate reading
31 instructional materials using CIRC. In implementing the reading materials design,
the researcher wanted to describe the implementation of CIRC. The researcher did not intend to evaluate the materials design. The materials were used as means to
find out the answer of the research questions. The researcher would teach four times by herself. Therefore, the
researcher asked a partner to observe the implementation of teaching reading using CIRC. The observer partner would observe based on the observation
checklists to guarantee that the observer partner would record all the aspects that the researcher wanted to be observed. However, in order to support the data, the
observer partner was allowed to add comments for each item in the observation checklists. Besides, the observer partner was allowed to give general comment to
the process of implementing reading materials using CIRC. The second instrument that would be used to gather the data was field
notes. The field notes was made by the observer partner to give a description of what had happened during the implementation of reading instructional materials
using CIRC. The field notes were made four times as there were four times of implementation. Furthermore, in order to support the data from observation
checklist and field notes, the researcher would record the teaching learning process using video recording. Video recording was needed in order to provide
additional data to the implementation of CIRC. The researcher realizes that video recording has limitation in providing data so that the researcher would use the
video recording as the additional data to support another data gathering technique.
32 The researcher would watch the video and then would take notes based on what
the video captured. The last instrument which was used to obtain the data was the interview.
The interview was used in order to find out the answer of the first and the second research question. The interview was conducted after the researcher implemented
one lesson unit. It means that the interview was conducted four times. The researcher conducted interview to the all fifth grade students. There were five to
six students for each interview. Furthermore, the researcher used guided interview which would be recorded using MP4.
