31 In this research, the researcher conducted an observation sheet to help the
researcher and peer-observer to analyze the students‟ response in the Classroom
activity. The observation sheet is provided in appendix A. A peer-observer in Classroom observation was also used in order to improve the objectivity of the
research. Observations Morrison, 1993, p.80 enable the researcher to gather the data on:
- the physical setting e.g. the physical environment and its
organization; -
the human setting e.g. the organization of people, the characteristics and make up of the groups or individuals being observed, for instance,
gender, Class;
- the interactional setting e.g. the interactions that are taking place,
formal, informal, planned, unplanned, verbal, non-verbal, etc.; -
theprogramme setting e.g. the resources and their organization, pedagogic styles, curricula and their organization.
The researcher developed an observation sheet and divided the observation sheet into three parts. The first part was the observation of physical setting
Classroom condition, human setting participants and interactional setting activity which used statements and notes. On the second part, the researcher
made a time-table of the activity which was used to analyze the activity based on the time provided. On the last part, the researcher made blank descriptive analysis
and reflective analysis to be filled by the researcher and the peer-observer Angrosino, 2007.

asking questions of a group of individuals called respondents Ary, Jacobs Razavieh, 2002. Moreover, Cohen, Manion Morrison 2011 say that a survey
has several characteristics and several claimed attractions; typically it is used to scan a wide field of issues, populations and programs. Survey in education often

McLean 1994 say that “the questionnaire is a widely used and useful instrument
for collecting survey information, providing structured, often numerical data, ……” Cohen, Manion, Morrison, 2000, p.377. The researcher formulated
questions that could obtain students‟ thoughts, feelings, attitudes, beliefs, values,
responses, personality, and behavioral intentions Johnson Christensen, 2011. According to Johnson and Christensen 2011, there are two types of
questionnaires, namely open-ended questionnaire and close-ended questionnaire. An open-ended question enables participants to respond in any way that
