22 ended approaches to ask general question to the participants such as in the interview. Creswell 2015, p. 13 states that one of characteristics in quantitative data is to collect the data in the form of number using instruments with preset question and response e.g., questionnaire. On the other hand, in qualitative research, the data is collected based on words e.g., interview from small numbers of individuals.

B. Research Participants

This research was conducted in semester four academic year 20132014 The participants of this research were students of Critical Listening and Speaking 2 CLS 2 class B and class E from English Language Education Study Program in Sanata Dharma University. Before taking CLS 2, the students had taken some courses related to the listening course. The courses are Basic Listening, Intermediate Listening, and Critical Listening and Speaking 1.

C. Research Instruments

There were two research instruments used in this study. They were the questionnaire and the interview. The first instrument was the questionnaire. Wallace 1998 p. 124 states that questionnaires are usually set in a very systematic way, and often being answered by reading the question, ticking responses and writing short answers. The questionnaires in this study were used to anwer the two research questions. The questionnaires were distributed to the forty six students of CLS 2 class B and class E on May 13, 2015. The second instrument was the interview. The researcher provided the open-ended structured interview. Wallace 1998, p. 124 states that open-ended could cover quite a wide range of interaction from something like a spoken questionnaire to something like a conversation. Open-ended questions permitted an unlimited number of possible answers and also made the participants to answer in detail and to clarify the responses. The researcher interviewed the students on May 13, 2015 and the lecturers on May 15, 2015.
