Research and Information Gathering Preliminary Material Design

materials from many sources book references, articles, journals, magazines, recording and films. After that, I developed the materials for Integrated English instructional materials referring to Kurikulum Tingkat Satuan Pendidikan KTSP for vocational high school, particulary for industrial electronics engineering, and I adapted many integrated materials in order to make a good design. The design involved communicative tasks to encourage students to be able to communicate in real-life situation.

3.1.3 Design Evaluation

Before evaluating the design, I conducted preliminary testing. This was in order to verify the design with the English teacher of SMK N2 Depok Yogyakarta who teaches XI grade students of industrial electronics , with a practical teacher who teaches XI grade students of industrial electronics Engineering, and with other experts English lecturers who are concerning with the instructional design subject course. I undertook the verification on the design, and finally to convince them that conceptually the design is good. After verifying the design, I evaluated the design by analyzing the data from the input, feedback, comments and suggestions.

3.1.4 Design Revision

After evaluating the design, I revised the design. I aimed to develop a good design for Integrated English instructional materials for XI grade students of industrial electronics engineering. PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI

3.2 Research Participants

There were some research participants in this study:

3.2.1 Participants in Research and Information Gathering RIG

They were first an English teacher who teaches XI grade students of industrial electronics Engineering . I also interviewed a practical teacher who teaches XI grade students of industrial electronics Engineering . This was aimed at obtaining the data for the needs analysis and to know the teachers’ expectations. The second set were the graduates who are working in the industrial electronics field. This aimed to obtain the real tasks of industrial electronics engineering so that eventually the designer could successfully design English materials based on the students’ needs in the area in which they are going to work in.

3.2.2 Participants in Design Verification

The participants were chosen to gain input on the design of Integrated English instructional materials for XI grade students of industrial electronics engineering. I interviewed an English teacher who teaches XI grade students of industrial electronics Engineering who had experienced teaching for at least one to five years, a practical teacher who teaches XI grade students of industrial electronics Engineering who had experienced teaching for at least one to five years, and some English lecturers the experts who were familiar with the instructional design subject course. They were asked to give input, opinions, suggestions, comments, and feedback on the design.
