CHAPTER III METHODOLOGY

3.1 Research Design

This thesis will be done by applying the qualitative method of case study. Bodgan and Taylor in Maleong, 1989:42 defined qualitative research method as a procedure generates data in the form of descriptive words written or spoken from people and observed behavior. In this study, the approach is taken through a qualitative approach. This means that the data collected is not the form of numbers but the data comes from text interviews, field notes, personal documents, and other official documents. The goal of this qualitative study is to describe the empirical reality behind the phenomenon in depth, and completely. Therefore the use of a qualitative method in this research is to match the empirical reality of the prevailing theory using descriptive methods. Whitney in Moh. Nazir, 2003:16 said descriptive method is the search for the proper interpretation of the facts. Descriptive research studying the problems in society, and procedures that apply in the community as well as specific situations, including on relationships, activities, attitudes, perspectives, and processes that are on going, and the influence -effects of a phenomenon. Surakhmad, 2000:147 says, “Metode deskriptif membicarakan kemungkinan untuk memecahkan masalah actual, dengan jalan mengumpulkan data, menyusun atau mengklasifikasikannya, menganalisis dan menginterpretasikannya.” Descriptive method discusses possible methods to solve the actual problem, the way to collect data, organize or classify, analyze and interpret them Universitas Sumatera Utara Sociolinguists believe that the study of language must go beyond the sentences that are the principal focus of descriptive and theoretical linguistics. It must go beyond language and bring in social context. It must deal with the ‘real’ texts that make up human communication and the social situations in which they are used. The focus of attention shifts from sentence to the act of communication Bernard Spolsky, 1998:14.
