CHAPTER V CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS

This chapter consists of two parts: the conclusions of the study and the suggestions for the English teachers or instructors and the future researchers.

A. Conclusions

This research was aimed to design Speaking Materials based on Multiple Intelligences Theory for the Tenth Grade Students of Senior High School. After completing the research, some conclusions were achieved. First, the combination between Kemp model and Yalden model was adapted in designing the materials in order to answer the first questions. The combination of the models was presented as follows: conducting needs survey; determining competency standard, basic competence and topics; determining indicators; selecting teaching learning activities and resources; designing the instructional materials; evaluating the instructional materials; and revising the instructional materials. Second, to answer the second question of this research, a set of speaking materials based on multiple intelligence theory for the tenth grade students of Senior High School was designed. The designed materials contained nine units. The nine units of the designed materials are presented as follows. Unit 1 : Getting to Know You Unit 2 : What’s the Matter? Unit 3 : My Story Unit 4 : Living Well 64 Unit 5 : It’s Simple like ABC Unit 6 : Thank You… Unit 7 : Oh My God Unit 8 : A Party? Unit 9 : Discovery Channel The final version of the materials can be seen in Appendix I. Third, in evaluating the materials, the questionnaires were distributed to the participants to obtain feedback, comments, and suggestion about the designed materials. The result of the questionnaire showed that the instructional materials were good, well arranged, and interesting. Thus, it can be concluded that the participants agreed that the designed materials were suitable for the tenth grade students of Senior High School. However, there were some revisions conducted to make the designed materials better. The revision and improvement were based on the participants’ feedback and suggestions.
