F. Technique of Analyzing Data

The classroom action research would be successful if there is an improvement of students‘ speaking ability in learning English. One of the indicators of the improvement is the increase of speaking scores. In this case, before applying the action, the writer would give the students a pre-test to know the students‘ knowledge about the teaching material that will be taught. At the end of the lessons, the writer will give them a post-test in order to know whether teaching English using project based activity is able to improve the students‘ speaking ability. The speaking scores as the result of a pre-test and a post-test will be analyzed with non-independent t-test. It is used to analyze the difference before and after the action in each cycle. Another type of data is in the form of non- numerical data. This type of data will be analyzed in several stages. The quantitative data will be analyzed by using descriptive statistic including the lowest and the highest score and the mean. The result of the test will be analyzed using non-independent t-test. It is to analyze the result of teaching and learning process and to know the difference before and after the cycle. The formula is quantitatively stated as follows: The formula to find out Mean: n X X   lxi The formula for t-test     1      N N N D D D t Ary, Jacobs, and Razavich, 1979: 150 The qualitative data will be analyzed by Using Constant Comparative Method as suggested by Strauss and Glasser in Lincoln and Guba 1985: 339. The process includes the following steps: 1. Comparing incidents applicable to each category In this stage, the researcher starts with making the code of every incident in her data from the observation and questionnaire. 2. Integrating categories and their properties In this stage the researcher compares the data which are taken during the observation and from the questionnaire. It is followed by finding the relationship between them. 3. Delimiting the theory In this stage, the researcher constructs the theory based on the result of the previous stages. 4. Writing the theory The researcher arranges the research findings based on the result of the previous stages. lxii
