Yalden’s Design Model

7 Evaluation Evaluating the learners, the teaching techniques and the program are done at this stage. 8 Recycling Stage At this stage, goals and final performances are set up. If there are differences from the syllabus, the materials and the teaching approaches will be revised. Below is the figure of the stages of Yalden’s design model. Figure 6: Stages in Language Program Development Yalden, 1987: 88 In this study, the writer will omit the development and implementation of classroom procedures. It is because the two parts are not the concern of the materials design.

B. The Theoretical Framework

The designed materials use the combination of Kemp’s and Yalden’s instructional design models. The theoretical framework consists of eight stages which are closely related to each other. The figure of the Rationale of the Framework illustrates the process of making the designed materials.

Interviews are conducted to acquire detailed information that is not provided in the questionnaires. Stage 2: Considering goals, topics, and general purposes Kemp The data from the needs analysis is computed. Then goal, topics, and general purposes of the course are set up.

Stage 4: Specifying the learning objectives Kemp This stage is aimed to discuss the indicators to achieve the intended competence, which is communicative speaking competence. Stage 5: Designing the materials This stage is not mentioned in both Kemp and Yalden’s Design Model. But this stage is needed to create the materials. Therefore, it is added to complete the stages to obtain the final version of the designed materials. Stage 6: Selecting the teaching-learning activities Kemp It relates to the selection of teaching and learning activities that will be conducted in the course. This stage also relates to the selection of appropriate resources for the materials. Stage 7: Evaluating the materials Kemp It is done by the distributing the evaluation questionnaires to several evaluators conducted to get the evaluators’ feedback to be used as guidelines to improve and revise the designed materials. Stage 8: Revising the designed materials Kemp It is to find any weaknesses of each stage and make a revision to improve it. PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI 35

CHAPTER III METHODOLOGY

This chapter focuses on the discussion of Research Method, Research Participants, Setting, Research Instruments, Data Gathering Techniques, Data Analysis, and Research Procedures.

A. Research Method

This study is a descriptive study. Whitney as quoted in Nasir states that research is classified into descriptive when the intention of the research is to find facts with an accurate interpretation Nasir 1988: 63. Meanwhile, Sprinthall states that the main purpose of descriptive research is description. It is applied to particular types of population to measure one or more variables which be used to describe the interests of the group 1991:98. Descriptive study deals with current situation Nasir, 1988: 64. It is conducted to attain as much information from the learners and textbooks as the foundation to design the materials. The study approach of this research is descriptive survey. Descriptive survey involves asking the same set of questions to a large number of individuals by mail, telephone, or in person Fraenkel and Wallen, 1993: 342. Meanwhile, Sprinthall adds that the intention of the survey is to get information from samples occasionally, even some populations by using questionnaires or interview 1991: 3. There are two kinds of survey study in this research, which are:
