Data Gathering Data Analysis

39 include the theory of material designs, English for Specific Purpose, and Task-Based Language Teaching. The design of the materials surely needs an evaluation from credible and experienced people. Therefore, the next step was preliminary field testing by gaining feedback from English lecturers and instructors. Along with the feedback and evaluation, they also gave their comments as well as suggestion on how to improve the designed materials. After feedback on the designed materials was obtained, the data was analyzed. Based on the result of the analysis data, the writer would be able to improve and adjust the materials to produce the best version of the materials. This was the final step of the research procedures. Figure 3.4 on the next page is the diagram on the research procedures employed in this study.

Firstly, research and information collecting was done by conducting needs survey. Secondly, planning and developing preliminary form of product included considering the goals, listing the topics, stating general purposes, specifying the learning objectives, selecting syllabus type, listing the subject contents, and selecting the teaching or learning activities and instructional resources. Lastly, the preliminary field testing and main product revision are stated as evaluation in the instructional design model used in this study. 41

CHAPTER IV RESEARCH RESULT AND DISCUSSION

This chapter describes the results and discussion of the findings of the survey study conducted to evaluate the design set of materials. Systematically, there are four parts covered in this chapter. The first part is the step involved in designing a set of materials. The second one is the elaboration of the result of the designed set of materials. The third part classifies the discussion on the designed set of materials and finally the last part describes the presentation of the designed materials.

A. The Steps Involved in Designing a Set of Materials

In total, there are seven steps involved in designing a set of instructional speaking materials using the Task-Based Language Teaching for the first semester students of Program Khusus SPKS Institut Pertanian STIPER Yogyakarta. The seven steps are the answer to the first problem presented in the problem formulation in Chapter I. Here are the explanations of each step:
