113 Table 4.13 shows the opinion on the Communication Practice Model
from an English lectu rer and three English teachers as experts’ validation. They
should choose five options that were strongly agree SA, agree A, Doubt D, disagree DA, and strongly disagree SDA. Choosing strongly agree SA had
point of agreement which was 5. Choosing agree A had 4 as the point of agreement. Choosing doubt D would get 3 as the point of agreement and
choosing disagree DA would get 2 as the point of agreement. Besides, choosing strongly disagree SDA would get 1 point. Thus, table 4.13 shows the mean of
each item which started from point 4 into 4.25. Thus, it was found out that the average point of the central tendency was 4.10 from the scale 5.0. The average
point of the central tendency, 4.10, was found out by counting all of means from each item and then divided by total items.
Since the average point of the central tendency was 4.10, it belonged to range ≥ 4 which meant that the Communication Practice Model was no revision.
The Communication Practice Model was indicated as very good so it was acceptable. Therefore, the Communication Practice Model could be implemented
in the classroom. On the other hand, the participants of experts’ validation also gave their
opinion and suggestions. There were five questions related to the Communication Practice Model. The participants should give their answers and their explanation.
The interpretation about their answers was summarized into five main points. Firstly, most participants said that Communication Practice Model was good
enough because it was good enough as a reference for students Grade Ten to
114 practice communicating and to develop student’s speaking skill. Besides, the
Communication Practice Model was interesting, challenging and easy to apply in a teaching and learning process. However, one participant of experts’ validation
said that she is not sure that the Communication Practice Model was good enough because the activities were not varied enough and it lacked of creativity and
authenticity. Secondly, there were some good things about the Communication Practice Model. It was good that there was a model before assigning the students
to perform it in front of the class. Then, the module helped students so they had description or image about what they were going to learn or practice before
practicing and it made them easier to understand the material. After that, it was applicable and easy to be practiced. Finally, it was easy enough and related to
syllabus of tenth grade. Thirdly, the Communication Practice Model was effective to help students communicate because the activities allowed the students to
communicate in English more, especially the four skills were generated in this module. Besides, it provided activities which trained students to speak and
communicate and the activities encouraged students to communicate. However, a participant did not agree if the Communication Practice Model was effective. She
said that the researcher should need to provide some activities that would engage students to the real context where the material was authentically used. Fourthly,
all participants gave their comments on what should be improved in the Communication Practice Model. The activities and design or layout had to be
improved so that it would be more interesting. Then, the materials had to be added and students could use English to seek job and communicate in social media.
115 Finally, the researcher should improve the variety of practices or activities for four
skills. Fifthly, there were some suggestions for the researcher in improving the Communication Practice Model. The first suggestion was that the researcher
should be more creative and varied in designing activities. The second suggestion was to add some more parts that would build up the skills before they actually
performed. The third suggestion was to decorate the layout more to make the students interested. The fourth was to check some misspelled words. The fifth
suggestion was to add more materials and more pictures that were related to the materials so that they would not be bored. The sixth suggestion was that perhaps
the researcher could make the Communication Practice Model more complete and various by adding a paraphrase activity. The last suggestion was to provide
vocabulary. In conclusion, based on the results of experts’ validation, the
Communication Practice Model was considered as very good model so it was acceptable to be implemented. The good things from the Communication Practice
Model were the models or images or descriptions that were provided so students could have prediction of what they were going to learn and the ease of the
Communication Practice Model that was applicable to be practiced. However, the Communication Practice could be improved by adding more materials or
activities, designing the more interesting layout, and providing more pictures. Therefore, the Communication Practice Model would be more interesting for
students to be practiced.
116 Using suggestions and feedback from experts’ validation,
Communication Practice Model could be much better. Communication Practice Model was in book fold form. It was a module for practicing communication. The
Iconic Model of Communication Practice Model can be presented as follows.
Figure 4.5 Cover of communication practice model
Figure 4.5 shows the cover of the module. The title of the module was Communication Practice Book for Students of Vocational High School. The
pictures were taken from students’ activities in Putratama Vocational High School.
117 In conclusion, the iconic model of the Communication Practice was in
form of book fold. There were fifteen topics or units and seven tests in the iconic model. Each unit provided three main activities for students to practice. There
were three main activities in the Communication Practice Model which included Let’s Keep in Touch, Let’s Be Open-Minded, and Let’s Practice. The activities
were simple and easy since the materials were familiar and related to daily life context. Thus, the Communication Practice Model was so practical because it was
easy to bring and practice.
