reflecting the action had a purpose to make the lesson plans to the next cycle better, so that the way how to present the material became better than before.
3.7 Data Analysis Method
Data analysis method in this research was very important because it was used to analyze the obtained data related to the students’ scores on vocabulary
test and the results of the observation during the teaching learning process of vocabulary by using English songs.
In this research, the data were analyzed quantitatively. The primary data in this research consisted of the vocabulary test and observation. The steps to
analyze the data in Cycle 1 and Cycle 2 were same. The steps in analyzing the data were as follows:
1. administering the vocabulary test to the research subjects after implementing the actions, that were teaching vocabulary by using English
songs. 2. scoring the vocabulary test.
3. discussing the results of vocabulary test with the English teacher. 4. counting the number of subjects who passed the vocabulary test and who
did not. 5. using the formula to find out the percentage of the research subjects who
were successful in achieving the standard minimum requirement score, that is, 72 in vocabulary test.
Meanwhile, in doing the observation, the steps were as follows: 1. doing observation during the teaching learning process of vocabulary
through English songs by collaborating with the English teacher. In this research, the English teacher did the observations in every meeting of each
cycle while the researcher taught the research subjects. 2. collecting the results of observation.
3. discussing the results of the observation with the English teacher.
4. determining and counting the number of students who were categorized as active students and the students who were categorized as passive students
during the teaching and learning process of vocabulary by using English songs.
5. using the formula to find out the percentage of the research subjects who were categorized as active students during the teaching and learning
process of vocabulary by using English songs.
3.7.1 Vocabulary Test The researcher used the following formula to calculate the percentage of
the students who got score at least 72 in the vocabulary test:
A N
× 100
Notes: A = the total number of the students who got score
≥ 72 N = the total number of the students who did the vocabulary test

The researcher used the following formula to calculate the percentage of the students’ active participation during the teaching learning process of
vocabulary by using English songs:
A N
× 100
Notes: A = the total number of the students who were categorized as active students
N = the total number of the students who were in class
