2. Identifying the Learner and Context
After identifying learners ’ need, the next step was identifying the learner
and context. The researcher conducted pretest for the students of 7
th
and 8
th
grades of SMP Putra Tama to know the characteristic and the knowledge that the learners
had. The pretest examined the common knowledge about text types in English such as narrative, descriptive, report, procedure, and recount text. The researcher
conducted the pretest by asking the students of 7
th
and 8
th
grades of SMP Putra Tama about the purposes of the several texts to know their knowledge. The result
was not good because not all of the students knew the purposes of the texts asked in the pretest. The students also found the difficulties to find sources to answer
questions in the pretest because of the limited school facilities.
3. Identifying Instructional Goals
In this step, the researcher paid attention to the knowledge that the 7
th
and 8
th
grad es of SMP Putra Tama’s students had and to the learners’ need. The result
of the analysis was the 7
th
and 8
th
grades students of SMP Putra Tama hadknown about several texts. However, the students still found some difficulties to mention
the purposes of the texts and find the sources to answer the pretest questions. After knowing the problems and the knowledge of the students, the
researcher identified the proper content inside the learning media to help them PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
27 understand about text types in English. The researcher included all of the basic
knowledge about text types in English such as type of text, the purpose of the text, the generic structure, and the example of the text. The instructional goals were
specified into how to use the learning media.
4. Sequencing the Content
After identifying the instructional goals, the researcher sequenced the content of the designed learning media. From the needs analysis, the researcher
found several problems of the students when they learnt about text types in English. The first problem was the students often answered incorrect when
mentioning the text types according the purposes of the text. Second, students were not able to mention the generic structure of the texts. Third, students
sometimes mentioned the example of the text types in English falsely. From that kind of problems, the researcher planned to make the simplest learning media that
cover all of the contents related to the problems. The content included four columns which was type of text, the purpose of the text, the generic structure, and
the example of the text.
