E. Data Analysis Techniques

The data analysis is one of the important components in this study. Data from questionnaire and interviews were analyzed to find out the students‟ needs in designing materials of Self-Access Center. The data gathered from interviews were analyzed in the form of written paragraph. Meanwhile, the data gathered from questionnaire was analyzed in the form of percentage. According to Fraenkel and Wallen 2008, the total size of the sample should be reported, along with the overall percentage returns. The researcher used several steps to analyze the data. Firstly, the researcher recapitulated the data in the table and then percentaged each answer. The following is the formula used by the researcher. Note : n : the total number of students who choose a certain answer N : the total number of students In analyzing the data gathered from the materials evaluation questionnaire, the writer used Likert‟s scale. According to Sorensen, Jacobs and Ary 2010, “Likert scale is assessing attitudes toward a topic which is indicated by five degrees” p.209. The estimation of the participants‟ opinions on the designed materials used the five degrees of agreement. The following is the five degrees of agreement which is used in this research. Table 3.2: Degree of Agreement Points of Agreement Meaning 1 Strongly disagree 2 Disagree 3 Undecided 4 Agree 43 The researcher then presented the description of the participants‟ evaluation on the designed materials in the form of table as follows. Table 3.3: The Description of the Participants’ Evaluations on the Designed Materials No Participants ‟ opinion Frequency of points of agreement Percentage Based on the data, the researcher got feedback and suggestions to improve the designed materials.

F. Research Procedure

In finishing this study, the researcher used some steps in order to obtain some valid and reliable data for instructional design of integrated reading writing materials of Self-Access Centre in SMK Negeri 2 Depok for the tenth grade students. The steps helped the researcher to collect the data. The procedures could be elaborated as follows. 1. Research and Information Collecting In this first step the researcher gained information about the students‟ needs and interests. Moreover, the researcher also got information related to the Self Access Centre and the materials needed in SAC. The observation was conducted when the researcher was practicing teaching in SMK Negeri 2 Depok . Points of Agreement Meaning 5 Strongly agree 44 The researcher collected the data in Needs Survey by distributing questionnaire to the tenth grade students and conducting interviews with an English teacher of SMK Negeri 2 Depok and one student of each class that had been observed. 2. Planning In this step the researcher planned to design materials. The researcher started to decide the goals, topics and general purposes based on the result of the questionnaire and interview. 3. Product Developing After the materials, handbooks and evaluation devices were ready, the researcher started to design the materials for Self Access Centre based on the goals, topics and general purposes stated in the previous step. 4. Evaluating In this step, the researcher conducted evaluation on the materials after designing the integrated reading writing materials. The evaluation was addressed to the two lecturers of the English Language Education Study Program at Sanata Dharma University and an English teacher of SMK Negeri 2 Depok by distributing questionnaire. 5. Revising the designed materials In the last step, the researcher made the final designed materials based on the feedback from the evaluators. The feedbacks were used to revise the materials in order to produce better design of integrated reading writing materials of Self- Access Centre for the tenth grade students in SMK Negeri 2 Depok . 45
