a. Data Presentation of the Close-Ended Questionnaire
The close-ended questionnaire consisted of 25 items that were classified into five parts. The statements and the classifications of the close-ended questionnaire
were based on the theory from Risk 1958. He classifies classroom management problems into five parts, which are about handling attendance, handling
instructional materials, handling classroom activities, regulations of physical conditions, and improving working conditions. The researcher put five items on
each classification so that the total items in the close-ended questionnaire were 25. The reason why the researcher adapted the Likert scale instead of using the
yes-no type of questionnaire was because the researcher wanted to know the agreement level of the respondents with the statements provided in the close-
ended questionnaire. There were four responses provided in the close-ended questionnaire, which were: 1. strongly disagree SD, 2. disagree D, 3. agree
A, and 4. strongly agree SA. Furthermore, the statements provided in the close-ended questionnaire were all positive. They consisted of the things that the
practice teachers might do in order to avoid the classroom management problems. Therefore, from the results of the questionnaires, the researcher categorized the
results as follows:
Strongly Disagree : The practice teachers found that they never did or had the item so that it was very likely for the practice teachers to
experience classroom management problems.
38 Disagree
: The practice teachers found that they did not always do or did not always have the item on the questionnaire so that it
was likely for the practice teachers to experience classroom management problems.
Agree : The practice teachers found that they commonly did or had
the item on the questionnaire so that it was unlikely for the practice teachers to experience classroom management
problems. Strongly Agree
: The practice teachers found that they always did or had the item on the questionnaire so that it was very unlikely for the
practice teachers to experience classroom management problems.
However, to come up with the categorization above, the researcher had checked 20 of the respondents, which meant 18 respondents, whether or not the
respondents had the same point of view as the researcher. After the researcher checked the
respondents‟ point of view about the items and the results of the questionnaire, the researcher concluded that the researcher and the respondents
had the same point of view to analyze the questionnaire data. The respondents agreed that if the items on the questionnaire were not experienced by the practice
teachers, classroom management problems were likely to happen. The results of the close-ended questionnaire could be seen as follows:

Handling Attendance The first classification of classroom management problems was about
handling attendance. This classification was related to the administrative procedures and attendance regulations. Therefore, the researcher set five items for
this part to know whether or not the practice teachers had problems in handling attendance during the School Practice Program. The results can be seen as
follows:

answered „agree‟ to the items in the questionnaire numbers 1 up to 5, which meant it was unlikely for the practice teachers to have classroom management problems
related to the handling attendance. While 29.9 of the 88 practice teachers answered „strongly agree‟ to the items in the questionnaire numbers 1 up to 5,
which meant that it was very unlikely for the practice teachers to have handling attendance problems.
2. Handling Instructional Materials
The second classification of the classroom management problems was about the handling instructional materials. This classification was closely related to the
teachers‟ routines to handle the instructional materials. Risk 1958 mentions that much valuable time might be wasted because of an ineffective handling of
instructional materials. In order to know whether or not the practice teachers experienced problems in handling instructional materials during the School
Practice Program, the researcher put five items related to the activities of handling instructional materials in this classification. The results of the questionnaire for
the second classification of the classroom management problems can be seen as follows:

88 practice teachers answered „agree‟ while 26.1 of the 88 practice teachers
answered „strongly agree‟ to the items in the questionnaire numbers 6 up to 10. 3.
Handling Classroom Activities The third classification of classroom management problems was about
handling classroom activities. This was related to how teachers manage classroom activities so that the teaching and learning activities in the classroom became
effective. In this part, the researcher also put five items to know whether or not the practice teachers experience problems in the handling classroom activities
during the School Practice Program. The results can be seen as follows:

Meanwhile, 23.3 of the 88 practice teachers chose „strongly disagree‟. These
numbers reflected the fact that the majority of the practice teachers had classroom management problems related to the handling classroom activities.
43 4.
Regulations of Physical Conditions Regulations of physical conditions were the fourth classification of the
classroom management problems. This was related to how teachers could handle physical conditions in the class so that the students felt comfortable to learn in the
class. The researcher set five items in this part to know whether or not the practice teachers had problems about regulations of physical conditions during the School
Practice Program. The questionnaire results for the fourth classification of the classroom management problem, which was about regulation of physical
conditions, can be seen as follows:

„strongly agree‟. 5.
Improving Working Conditions The fifth classification of classroom management problems was about
improving working conditions. This was related to student practices in the classroom. Risk 1958 mentions that there a number of student activities or
practices that might disrupt the effectiveness of classroom work. The results of the questionnaire about improving working conditions can be seen as follows:
