G. The classroom Action Research CAR Procedures

The Classroom Action Research using Kurt Lewin’s consists of four phases within one cycle; those are planning, acting, observing and reflecting. To make and to tell what happens in each phase, the researcher would like to give the explanation one by one of the phases in order to make this research deeper, here are the explanations:

1. Planning

In this phase, the writer as English teacher makes lesson plan based on the issue in classroom. The writer and the observer conduct Action Research collaboratively. The purpose of this phase is to develop students’ ability in using imperative sentences. Before implementing it, the writer made some planning in this phase, the planning as follows: a. The researcher and the observer discuss about the steps which must be done in this research. b. The researcher planned the scenario of teaching learning based on the curriculum and syllabus, such as:  Prepared the lesson plan based on the indicators.  Prepared an interesting topic  Chose the method that used in teaching imperative sentences  Prepared the media to support the teaching learning process  Prepared the form of observation  And prepared the form of test.

2. Acting

Acting performed by the researcher to solve or answer the problem by analyzing classroom organization, or who needs to be a collaborator, and who will take the test. Based on the planning above the researcher acted the scenario of teaching learning process, with the material which has been planned. 30

3. Observing

In this step, the researcher or the teacher writes what all happened in the classroom during acting. In doing the observation, the researcher used field note to support the data. It is about class situations, student’s participant and pronunciation of the students. Collecting the data needs observation or assessment format which is arranged to accurate of performing scenario acting from time to time and the impact toward the process of teaching and learning activities in the classroom.

4. Reflecting

Reflecting is a step for processing the data which the researcher finds when acting observation. The data are interpreted and looked for explanation, analyzed, and synthesized. In processing the data may involve collaborator as happens during observing. The collaboration is done by the researcher and teacher as the observer. His participation in this part just helps the researcher accurate to do reflecting and evaluating. If the researcher still found the problem in this phase, so she must continue to the next cycle concerning re-planning, re-acting, and re-observing.
