Researcher C: Collaborator Interview 23, Appendix E

games as fun learning activities during the practice and production Cycle 1 made some improvements of students since those were interesting. However, the timing needed to be managed well to make the games more successful. The use of songs in the Cycle 1 was not effective enough as the songs were too complicated for the students. However, the songs could be good language input to the students before they did speaking or joined the games. would be sustained to be used in Cycle 2 with improvement. management was applied in the lesson to make the Fun learning more successful. The songs should be short and simple. They should be given with the right procedure. Using flashcards and cards as media combined with the game set. Flashcards and cards were helpful during the teaching and learning process since it could be seen from the back rows and it had colorful design. The students could understand the materials more easily. This action would be sustained to be used in Cycle 2 with improvement and modifications. In the Cycle 2, the media would be more various. The flashcards, cards, games set would be added by others media. Applying routines and patterns classroom management The routines and patterns were interesting to the students. However, it needed to be improved since some students were still noisy. This action would be sustained to be used in Cycle 2 with improvement and modifications. The patterns such as ‘English, Yes I can,” were still applied. The classroom management related to the routine in the grouping and submitting work would be applied. The class rules would be applied. The noisy students were made helpful. Based on the explanation above, it can be concluded that the result of Cycle 1 was valid because it was in line with the concept of dialogic, process and outcome validity. It means that there were some improvements and weaknesses after the implementation of the actions which were supported by some data in the form of field notes and interview transcripts. In addition, the results were said to be reliable because there were more than one observer in gathering the data. It was in line with the concept of investigator triangulation.

2. Report of Cycle 2

a. Planning

Based on the reflection of Cycle 1, there were some improvements on students’ involvement, students’ motivation, and the effectiveness of media. However, some problems still exist during the cycle, they were: time management, activity organization and student’s behavior. It was found that some students did not behave properly and the teacher could not manage the time. These caused the learning activities did not run smoothly. Therefore, some plans would address the problems in Cycle 1. Some modification and addition were necessary in this cycle to achieve better teaching and learning process. The first plan, the rules in the classroom were applied to deal with the disruptive students. It was expected that the students obey the rule to not make noisy in the teaching and learning process so they behave well. Rewards in the form of stars were also given to maintain their motivation and participation. Besides, the positive feedback or praise would be given to the students.
