writer used two types of questionnaire. They were: closed-ended questionnaire and open-ended questionnaire.
The type of questionnaire used for participants was a close-ended questionnaire. Closed-ended questionnaire used to gain information from the
participants. Closed questions are the questions which are constructed by providing some answers or choices to be chosen by the participants. The
questionnaires for the participants wrote in Indonesian. The reason was to help the participants answer the questions easily. The writer provided 26 closed-questions
by providing some answers or choices to be chosen by the participants. The participants just choose the best answer based on their experiences.
The types of questionnaires used for the evaluators were closed-ended questionnaire in form of Likert scales and open-ended questionnaire. A Likert
scale is a type of closed-question where researcher provides a range of responses or statements to be chosen by the evaluators of the study. Open-ended question is
a type of questionnaire in which the respondents have a chance to give their personal comment and researcher might have a depth response from the
