CHAPTER III METHODOLOGY

In this chapter, the researcher presented the methodology used in this study. This chapter consisted of five parts, namely, research method, research setting, research participants, research instruments, and data analysis technique.

A. Research Method

In this chapter, the researcher presented the methodology used to answer the problem of this study. The problem of this study was “What does a set of supplementary listening materials using gamification for the Intermediate Listening Class in the English Language Education Study Program look like?” This research conducted to find out the data and then develop listening supplementary materials using gamification. In conducting this study, the researcher employed Research and Development RD Method proposed by Borg and Gall 1983. Educational Research and Development RD is a process used to develop and validate educational products. The steps of this process are usually referred to as the R D cycle, which consists of studying research findings pertinent to the product to be developed, developing the product based on these findings, field testing it in the setting where it will be used eventually, and revising it to correct the deficiencies found in the field testing stage. Borg Gall, 1983, p.772 The researcher chose RD method because it provides instructional steps to develop an educational product. RD provides ten instructional steps to develop educational products. There are research and information collecting or PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI 32 need analysis, planning, development of preliminary form of product, preliminary field testing, main product revision, main field testing, operational product revision, operational field testing, final product revision, and dissemination and implementation Borg Gall, 1983, p.775. Table 3.1 Borg Gall Steps Scheme Borg Gall, 1983, p.775 However, due to the limitation of time and capacity, the researcher was limited the development into five steps to ease the process of designing the product. Those steps were chosen because it covers the main steps of the development process. In addition, the researcher also adapted the process based on the needs of development.
