Since the result of the mean of each variable of the questionnaire is in the form of decimal, it is necessary to determine the range of the graded score: Which can
be seen in the following:
Table of The range of the graded score Range of
the mean Students’

English
2.00-3.00 High Competence Interesting excellence Very
enthusiastic 1.00-1.99 Medium
Sufficient Sufficiently interesting
Good Fairly enthusiastic
0.00-0.99 low
Insufficient Boring Bad Less
enthusiastic
4.2.5 Matching the Mean to the Range of the Graded Scores
Each of the means of the variables above is then matched with the range of the graded score. The result can be seen shown below:
1.Students’ motivation
The mean f the motivation is 1.58. This figure falls on the range between 1.00 and 1.99 medium
2.Teaching learning facilities
