68 Table 4.11 The Summary of Summative Evaluation in Open-ended Questionnaire No Items Participants’ Opinion Lecturer 1 Lecturer 2 1 Comments on the designed materials 1. Very good materials, especially strong in reflection or conclusion phase. 1. Good enough materials for Cave Tubing guides. 2. The materials are simple and it provides limited possible activities. Suggestions on the designed materials 1. Giving more opportunity for the guides to express and explore themselves. 1. The researcher may consult course book more to enrich the insights. 2. Provide more varied activities. 2 Comments on the teacher’s guide 1. Understandable 2. Helpful 1. Clear in instruction The data in Table 4.11 showed that the designed materials were good and suitable for cave tubing guides. However, the researcher had to revise on the task activities . The task should give more opportunity to explore guides’ competencies and skills by themselves. The designed materials needed some varied activities. The researcher was suggested to consult course books more to enrich the various kind of activities. For the teacher’s guide, it was understandable, helpful and clear in instructions.

5. Main Product Revision

The revision was done to present the final version of the designed materials. The revision was made based on the suggestions from the experts’ validation on the summative evaluation inn preliminary field testing. The researcher accepted the suggestions from the experts ’ validation. The researcher 69 would provide more varied activities, would make the tasks to give more opportunity to express and explore guides’ competencies and skills, and would consult course books to find out various kinds of activities. The researcher found some books to add various activities to the designed materials. Before revising the designed materials, the materials were about identifying conversation and making conversation with unclear clues about what learners should do with the conversations. Then, the researcher made more varied activities such as tasks to express ideas and to guess true or false. The researcher also made clearer clues and examples about what the learners should do with the task.

6. Main Field Testing

This step actually was not the step to design the designed materials. The purpose of main field testing was to obtain data of a formative evaluation in Dick Carey’s instructional design model 2009: 1 which was used in this study. To gain the data of the formative evaluation, the researcher implemented the designed materials to the target learners – the tour guides of Kalisuci Gunungkidul. Thus, in this study, the researcher taught the learners using the designed materials and then conducted the formative evaluation. The formative evaluation was done by distributing evaluative questionnaires to the learners. The researcher used both closed and open form of questionnaire. The all of the questions asked about the speaking materials to find out whether or not the learners enjoyed learning speaking through the designed materials and whether or not the designed 70 materials helped them to fulfill their needs. The results of closed form of questionnaire can be seen in Table 4.12. Table 4.12 The Results Of Formative Evaluation in Close-ended Questionnaire No Participants’ Opinion Central Tendency N Mean 1 The materials are suitable for the needs of cave tubing guides. 15 4.67 2 The materials motivated me to be active to speak in English. 15 4.27 3 The materials are easy to be practiced in everyday guiding. 15 3.93 4 The materials are interesting to be practiced. 15 4.00 5 The materials are not boring. 15 4.00 6 The units and the materials are sequenced from the easiest one to the most difficult one . 15 4.47 7 The conversation materials are interesting and suitable for cave tubing guides. 15 4.13 8 Role-playing brings an effective way to express my speaking skills and competencies. 15 4.00 9 The tasks instruction are clear and understandable. 15 3.87 10 The layout of the designed materials are interesting. 15 4.00 From the Table 4.12, the mean was at the range of 3.87 to 4.67. Furthermore, the mean in statement number one was 4.67. It was concluded that the designed materials were suitable for the needs of the tour guides of cave tubing acvtivities because the mean 4. 67 was considered as “agree” in the degree of agreement. The complete results of closed form questionnaires can be seen in Appendix D. In order to gain the suggestions to make the next revision, the researcher also distributed closed form questionnaires. There were some suggestions to be considered in revising the final version of the designed 71 materials. The summary of the data in closed form questionnaire can be seen in Table 4.13. Table 4.13 The Summary Of Formative Evaluation in Open-ended Questionnaire No Items Participants’ Opinion 1 The easiest topic and the reason why the topic is the easiest one than other topics 1. Greeting, leave taking, and introducing self and others, because those topics had been taught for many times in school so that it can be remembered easily. 2 The most difficult topic and the reason why the topic is the most difficult one than other topics 1. Asking for and giving directions because there are many words to remember. 2. Making a correct composaition of a sentence. 3 Suggestions for the design materials 1. More repetition on the difficult topics. 2. Teach us again how to make a correct sentence. Based on Table 4.13, it could be concluded for the next revision that the researcher might add materials in making correct sentences for speaking class. Then, for the difficult topic about asking for and giving directions, the researcher might add more hours. Since, this study was only taking six steps of the educational RD steps, the researcher did not revise the final version of the designed materials. Therefore, the suggestions to revise the materials in formative evaluation can be used by the next researchers who are interested in developing the speaking materials for cave tubing guides.

B. The Final Presentation of the Designed Materials

This section was to answer the second research problem, namely, what task-based English speaking materials using for the tour guides of Kalisuci
