C. Research Instruments
In carrying out the survey in this study, the researcher used two kinds of instruments. They were questionnaire and interview. The questionnaire was used
to gather data from the students whereas the interview was used to obtain information from the English teacher.
1. Questionnaire Sheet
A questionnaire is a scientific instrument for measurement and for collection of particular kinds of data. According to Ary 1990: 174, there are two
types of questionnaire. They are structured or closed questionnaire and constructed or open questionnaire. In formulating the questionnaire, the researcher
used both closed and open questionnaire. The closed-ended questionnaire was used because it was easier to use and to score since all subjects responded to the
same set of questions. Whereas, the open questionnaire was used to obtain participants’ opinion, ideas, and thought of the questions. The first questionnaire
was used for the Research and Information Collecting. This questionnaire was given to the ninth grade students of SMP Negeri 11 Yogyakarta and the data
collected were used to design the materials. The second questionnaire was used for the Preliminary Field Testing to gain feedback, evaluations and comments on
the designed materials. This questionnaire was given to an English teacher of SMP Negeri 11 Yogyakarta and two English lecturers of the English Education Study
Program of Sanata Dharma University.
2. Interview Guide
Interview is aimed to find out what is in someone’s mind and how does someone feel about something. Personal interview was used in this research
because it was conducted face to face, interpersonally between the interviewer and the interviewee to obtain the information needed. In this context, the interview
was conducted between the writer and the English teacher of SMP 11 Negeri Yogyakarta. The content of the questions in the interview was about the students’
mastery in English especially listening skill, and also the learning process in class. This interview was aimed to clarify four important questions to design the
material. They were the students’ interests in learning English, the students’ mastery in listening skill, the implementation of School-Based Curriculum for the
ninth grade students in SMP Negeri 11 Yogyakarta, and the appropriateness of listening material for the ninth grade students of junior high school.
