There will be two different perception classifications in this section which are based on each respondent and based on each medium.
a. Classification of perception based on each respondent It refers to the teachers’ action toward media, whether for enhancing the
students’ listening, speaking, reading or writing skills. In order to reach the objective, the researcher has to calculate each of the respondent’s score as well as
the average of their score. The researcher then has to calculate the average of total score of all respondents and the standard deviation. These whole components will
be substituted to the attitude categorization to find the perception of each respondent.
The maximum and minimum score that might be held by the respondent are shown as follows:
- Maximum score : 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 = 55; which
means the respondent has a very positive action toward media, he she applies all the media in his her English class.
62 - Minimum score
: 0 x 10 = 0; which means the respondent never uses the provided media at all.
b. Classification of perception based on each medium The objective of this analysis is to investigate which software medium is
the most used by the respondent. The must be calculated items in this section are score of each medium as well as the average, the total score of all media as well as
the average and also the standard deviation. These items will be used to categorize each of the medium.
The maximum and minimum score of each medium are shown as follows: - Maximum score
: 10 x 30 = 300; which means this medium is the most used by all of the teachers.
- Minimum score : 0 x 30 = 0; which means there is no teacher who
applies this medium in his her English class.
