excessively involved in any activities relate to the data collection. For example,
the researcher teach the student by herself using any specific tehnique or media. In
other hand, an outsider occurs when the researcher is not involved in the activity.
In this final project, I am an outsider who responsible to be the data observer,
collector, analyzer, and reporter.
As an observer, I closely observe the teachers in doing their job. Do the
teachers really teach some materials in English subject including character
education on real teaching or not? As the data collector, I take the data when the
participants were enganged in real situation. I, myself record the teacher in
teaching the students. As an analyzer, I am in charge of analyzing some methods
or strategies used by teachers in integrating and assessing character education.
Then, I categorize the data based on the eighteen values from Kemendiknas which
is the criteria of data analyzing. The last, I am responsible to be a reporter. It
means that I need to composed and report the whole result of the research in the
form of final project.

Type of Data
On Eurasia Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education written by
Devetak et al, stated that,
for qualitative research it is characteristic that data are gathered more in a verbal and visual than in a numeric form. When analyzing the gathered data, statistical procedures are also not used, but instead predominantly qualitative analysis, the essence of which is searching for codes in the analyzed materials (Bryman, 2004).
Based on the concept above, I do not need any statistical calculation in
displaying the data because the data itself is not in the form of numeric or
37
numbers. The data is needed to compose this final project is categorized as
naturally occurring data where it is not made up. It means that the data is not
artificial. The data which is obtained is
in the form of English teacher’s
performance in integrating and assessing second core competence (KI2) of
curriculum 2013 in English class. So, the data itself is about what teachers say and
do regarding on integrating and assessing second core competence (KI 2) of
curriculum 2013.

Procedures of Collecting Data
Hancock (2002) divides the techniques for collecting data through observation
into four ways. They are written description, video recording, photographs and
artifacts and the last is documentation.
To obtain data of this study, I uses video recording. I use video recording
because the data is in the form of teacher’s performance in integrating and
assesing second core competence (KI 2) of curriculum 2013. I use video recording
because the data can display the whole process of the integration and assessment
KI 2 of curriculum 2013 in MTs Negeri Slawi and MAN Babakan Lebaksiu,
Tegal. In other hand, the other ways like written description, photographs and
artifacts and documentation do not show all the process of because their nature
which only show pieces of event.Video recording also brings much simplicity.
For example, it frees the observer from the task of making notes at the time and
allows events to be reviewed time after time. So, it eases the researcher to analyze
the data later.
