C. Discussion
In this part, the discussion dealt with two processes. The first process was the stages of designing a set of task-based instructional materials to teach English to
fifth graders of SD Kanisius Baciro Yogyakarta. The second process was the process of making revisions and improvements on the designed materials based
on the survey research. The stages used in designing a set of task-based instructional materials to
teach English to fifth graders of SD Kanisius Baciro Yogyakarta in this study were as follows:
1 identifying the learners’ characteristics
2 considering goals, listing topics, and stating general purposes
3 specifying learning objectives
4 listing the subject content
5 selecting teaching learning activities and the instructional resources
6 designing the instructional materials
7 evaluation and revision
The participants’ suggestions and feedback were used for making revisions and improvements on the designed materials. The data formulated in table 4.6
indicated that the grand mean on the evaluation of the instructional materials designed generally was 4. 02. The writer, therefore, could draw a conclusion that
the designed materials were acceptable. In order to get better materials, therefore, the writer conducted some revisions
and improvements on the designed materials based on the evaluation of the participant. The results of the revisions were written as follows:
1. rearranging the topics started from self
2. clarifying the task instructions
3. substituting the pictures
4. changing the unit title from ‘Pet Animals into ‘My Pet’
D. Presentation of the Materials Design
The second problem formulation was the presentation of the designed materials. Therefore, after making the revisions and improvements on the
designed materials, the writer finally presented the final version of a set of task- based instructional materials to teach English to fifth graders of SD Kanisius
Yogyakarta .
The designed materials consisted of 10 units as stated below: Unit 1
: Pandu’s Family Unit 2
: My Pet Unit 3
: I Can Write with My Hand Unit 4
: What Time Is It? Unit 5
: I usually Get Up at 5 o’clock Unit 6
: I Like Swimming Unit 7
: How Much Is It? Unit 8
: How Do You Make It? Unit 9
: I Go to School by Bus Unit 10
: I’m Going to the Beach In general, the subject content of the designed materials consisted of 5 kinds
of activities and 1 additional activity for certain topics as mentioned below: PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
1. Come with Me
2. Take It
3. Action
4. Go Go Go
5. Memory
6. Project
Considering the large number of the pages, the writer placed the designed materials in appendix 6.
CHAPTER V CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
This chapter presents two sections. The first one deals with the conclusion of the study. In the second part, the writer would like to give some suggestions to
English teachers of elementary school and other researchers who plan to conduct the same kind of research.
A. CONCLUSIONS
This study was conducted to design a set of task-based instructional materials for fifth graders of SD Kanisius Baciro Yogyakarta. The writer, then, identified
two problems stated in this study. The first was how a set of task-based instructional materials for fifth graders of SD Kanisius Baciro Yogyakarta was
designed. The second was what the designed materials looked like. In order to find out the answer for the first problem, the writer combined two
instructional design models from Kemp and Dick Carey. The combination of the models could be used effectively in designing a set of task-based instructional
materials in this study. The steps were rearranged as follows: 1 identifying the learners’ characteristics, 2 considering goals, listing topics, and stating general
purposes, 3 specifying learning objectives, 4 listing the subject content, 5 selecting teaching learning activities and the instructional resources, 6 designing
the instructional materials, and 7 evaluation and revision. To answer the second problem, the writer revised the proposed materials
based on the designed materials evaluation. The evaluation was conducted by PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
