3.4 Instruments of the Study

The definition of instrument itself based on Calderon 2008 is a tool for gathering data in research process. And Harris 1969:71 states, “there are two basic kinds of test instrument used to measure the four language skill of the students, i.e. the objectives test and essay test.” From that definitions, I use some pictures, classical musics as the media in this method and there are some instruments needed in this action research. They are test, questionnaire, and observation checklist.

3.4.1 Tests

The tests will be formed into pre-test and post-test. They will measure the effect of giving treatment in classroom so that I can find the effectiveness of using this suggestopedia teaching method. This test will also be delivered in every cycle. In first cycle, students are given pretest to measure their basic understanding about the material. Then I will give the treatment of suggestopedia to teach the descriptive text in speaking. After that students given post-test to finish the first cycle. In the second cycle after reflecting the previous one I give a form of pretest for a same material. And then students are treated by the revised treatment reflected from the first treatment. Closing this action research, there will be a post-test in the end of the second cycle. All of the test in these cycles are in form of spoken test so that I can measure their speaking skill in this research.

3.4.2 Questionnaire

According to Brown and Dowling 1998:66-69 questionnaires hold a number of attractions for the researcher who wishes to collect information from a large 26 number of people but has limited time and resources. Meanwhile, Arikunto 2002;128 states that aquestionanaire is a number of written questions which are used to gain information from respondents about themselves or their knowledge, belief, etc. From the statements above, it can be said that the use of questionnaire is to collect information from a large number of students about the teaching method that was applied in their classroom. The result of the questionnaire of data analysis of each issue can be classified into a range of mean, as followed bellow: Table 3.1 Classification of Questionnaire Range of Mean Student’s interest The advantage Student’s achievement The relevancy Sustainability 0.00- 1.00 Low Do not help the student Low Not relevant Not necessary 1.01- 2.00 Medium Help the students Medium Relevant Necessary 2.01- 3.00 High Help the students very much High Very relevant Very necessary
