to measure their scores after the actions. Both of the test measured how the actions affect students‟ listening skills.

C. Instruments of the Research

The researcher used some instruments in collecting the data. There were interview questions, field notes and students‟ test. 1. Interview guidelines This questions related to the data that the researcher wants to get. The researcher conducted interview with both teacher and students. The answers of the questions covered any information related to teaching learning process. The answers stated in the interview transcripts and used as guidelines in creating conclusions whether the technique could improve the student‟s skill or not. 2. Observation sheets Observation sheets were used to record the process of teaching and learning. The observation sheets was referred by putting a tick to statements of theteaching and learning process which were done. 3. Students‟ test Students‟ test were used as instruments to get information about students‟ ability while and after the action. There were pretest and posttest. Both of them showed students‟ score before and after the technique implemented. From that scores, researcher can compared the students‟ scores. 4. The listening rubric The tests given to the students were in the form of essay test. Thus, it needs a rubric for scoring their work.

Table 1: Listening Rubric Assessment Rubric for Interpretive Listening Competence Target Acceptable Unacceptable Demonstrates ability to interpret an oral message on a number of levels, analyze it from a number of perspectives, provide a detailed personal interpretation of the text supported by a rich range of cultural knowledge. Demonstrates a clear understanding of the target cultures as a system in which cultural perspectives are reflected through practices products Demonstrates ability to interpret synthesize Demonstrates the ability to move beyond literal comprehension of an oral message, infer the meaning of unfamiliar words phrases in new contexts, infer interpret the author‟s intent, offer a personal interpretation of the message Demonstrates knowledge of the target cultures and its reflection in its products and practices with a few insignificant errors or with a few lacking elements . Demonstrates ability to interpret synthesize ideas. Identifies main ideas most important details of an oral message, begins to move beyond literal comprehension, identifies either the author‟s or cultural perspectives. Identifies some of the products and practices of the target culture but shows inadequate understanding of the target culture as a system of values. Shows a limited ability to interpret ideas critical issues from multiple viewpoints. Identifies an abundant number of details that are relevant for understanding main ideasevents Identifies many of the details that are relevant for understanding main ideasevents. synthesize ideas.
