D. Data Gathering Techniques
The researcher obtained data and information related to the study by conducting three techniques. First, the researcher conducted library study which lead
to any information related to designing storytelling learning activities for high school students from books and articles in the Internet. From library study, the researcher
expected to obtain theories, principles, and other knowledge and information which were needed to design the product.
Second, in order to gather the data for the needs analysis, the researcher conducted an interview. The interview was directed to the English teacher who was
in charge in conducting storytelling activities in school. The interview checklist would cover the questions related to the goals of storytelling club in school, learners’
characteristic, storytelling club’s activities, materials, facilities, method and also teacher and learners’ difficulties in conducting storytelling activities.
Other interviews were also conducted to obtain feedback on the design. The interviews were directed to the same English teacher and two PBI lecturers who were
considered as experts in teaching English speaking class and also excellent in English speaking mastery. The interview searched for opinion, feedback and
evaluation on the objectives, content quality and layout of the design. PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
