According to the research and information collecting step of R D, the interview in this study was done among the writer and two English teachers of
SMA Bopkri 2 Yogyakarta. . Through the interview, the writer was expected to be
able to obtain further explanation for unclear answers, which is important to design a set of supplementary integrated English instructional materials using
Task-Based Learning for the tenth grade students of Senior High School. The interview was conducted informally.
b. Instrument for Evaluation
After designing the materials, the writer distributed the questionnaire to four English teachers and one English language lecturer of Sanata Dharma
University in order to obtain the opinions, suggestions and recommendations which used to improve and revise the designed materials. In R D, it is in the
preliminary field testing step.
E. Data Gathering Technique
This research was done by conducting interview and distributing questionnaires. According to research and information collecting step of R D,
firstly, the writer distributed the questionnaire to the tenth grade students and then the writer conducted the interview with two English teachers of SMA Bopkri 2
Yogyakarta. Those were aimed to know the students’ needs in learning English.
After designing the materials, as the preliminary field testing step of R D, the writer also distributed the questionnaire to other participants. Those respondents
were one English language lecturer of Sanata Dharma Universisty and four
English teachers of SMA Bopkri 2 Yogyakarta. The data gathered from the teachers and lecturer were used to make some necessary revision and
improvement for the designed materials.
F. Data Analysis Technique
The analysis of the data is as important as any other component of the research process. Regardless of how well the study is conducted, inappropriate
analyses can lead to inappropriate conclusions. Therefore, the data analysis is also an important part to be done. In analyzing data, the writer used Likert scale. The
data were gathered from the questionnaires and interviews. Next, the data were analyzed to support the process of modifying the instructional integrated English
materials using Task-Based Learning. The writer gave the participants five options representing their agreement,
disagreement, and doubt about each statement. The options were presented in the Table 3.2.

Points of Agreement Meaning
1 Absolutely Disagree
2 Disagree 3 Undecided
4 Agree 5 Absolutely
Agree
This study used descriptive statistics. Then descriptive statisttics was taken from questionnaires and interview. The result of the questionnaires was used to
find out the mode, median and mean. Mode is the value in a distribution that occurs most frequently. Median is the score that is at the centre of the distribution
after the data are arranged in rank order. The mean or average point X is obtained by counting the sum of the score
∑X divided by the number of subject N. Then the data were presented in the form of table in which the respondents’
opinions on the designed materials were as follows:

Notes: N
= Number of respondents Mn
= Mean an average of all scores in a distribution Med
= Median midpoint in a distribution Md
= Mode the most frequent
The formula is: X =
∑X N
Where X = the average point ∑X = the sum of scores
N = the number of subjects
From the respondents’ degrees of agreement in the questionnaire, the writer determined the average score or mean from them individually and totally.
The total mean from all the respondents was used to show whether the designed materials were good and acceptable or not. The assessment of the mean was
classified as follows: 0.0
X ≤ 2
: the designed-materials were poorly designed 2.01 X
≤ 3 : the designed-materials were fairly designed
3.01 X ≤ 4
: the designed-materials were good, but needed some crucial revisions
4.01 X ≤ 5 : the designed-materials were well designed and
acceptable, but needed few revisions The writer made some improvement of the designed-materials based on the data.
The result of the design evaluation was the significant main source in this process as it contained feedback and evaluation from the experts.
