K. The technique of Collecting Data
All kinds of researches need the data to support the investigation. This study used some appropriate techniques based on the students’ condition and
environment. Techniques of collecting data used in this study are qualitative data experience-based, it consists of observation, interview and field note. Next
quantitative data number-based, it consists pre-test and post-test, the completely explanation as follows:
1. Observation
The observer conducted the observation directly toward English teaching and learning-process in MTs. Islamiyah Sawangan 20102011 Academic Year
before implementing of The classroom action research to know the students’ and teacher’s problem in teaching learning process. The writer observed students’
understanding in learning imperative sentences and the method that used by the English teacher in teaching learning process.
