Coryanti, F. D. (2012). Designing a set of English instructional materials for
Caterpillar Class of Domby Kids’ Hope 1 based on contextual teaching and learning
approach. Yogyakarta: English Language Education Study Program, Sanata Dharma
University.
The research is intended to design a set of English instructional materials
based on Contextual Teaching and Learning Approach for young learners of Domby
Kids’ Hope 1 to improve their verbal communicative competence.
There are two major problems in this research. First, how a set of English
instructional materials based on Contextual Teaching and Learning Approach (CTL)
for Caterpillar Class of Domby Kids’ Hope 1 is designed. Second, what a set of
English instructional materials based on Contextual Teaching and Learning Approach
for Caterpillar Class of Domby Kids’ Hope 1 looks like.
The researcher employed three kinds of instruments in the research:
observation, interview, and questionnaire. The researcher conducted classroom
observation, distributed the first type of questionnaire to students’ parents, and
conducted interviews with an English tutor and coordinators of Domby Kids’ Hope 1
to collect significant information. After a set of materials were designed, the
researcher distributed the second type of questionnaire to an English lecturer of

Sanata Dharma University and a tutor of Domby Kids’ Hope 1 to gain opinions and
suggestions for the designed materials.
To answer the first problem, the researcher applied five steps of Borg and Gall
educational research and development method. The steps proposed include (1)
research and information collecting, (2) planning, (3) developing preliminary form of
product, (4) preliminary field testing, and (5) main product revision.
To answer the second problem, the researcher presented the final designed
materials on appendices. The materials consisted of five units. Each unit consisted of
five sections. They are (1) on your mark, (2) get set, (3) go, (4) review, and (5)
reflection.
The researcher analyzed the data after the preliminary test was conducted. The
result of the analysis indicated that the designed materials were appropriate and
relevant for young language learners although some revisions are needed to make the
materials explicitly show the CTL approach.
Finally, the researcher expects that these designed materials can be useful for
the tutor and learners in Domby Kids’ Hope 1 to improve the learners’ communicative
competence. Moreover, the researcher expects that this research inspire other
researchers in conducting the study related with CTL approach to improve the
instructional materials for students.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk merancang materi pembelajaran Bahasa
Inggris dengan menggunakan pendekatan kontekstual untuk siswa di Domby
Kids’ Hope 1 guna meningkatkan kemampuan komunikasi siswa.
Ada dua permasalahan utama yang ditekankan pada penelitian ini.
Pertama, bagaimana merancang satu set materi pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris
berdasarkan pendekatan kontekstual untuk Caterpillar Class di Domby Kids’
Hope 1. Dua, bagaimana bentuk rancangan materi pembelajaran Bahasa inggris
berdasarkan pendekatan kontekstual untuk Caterpillar Class di Domby Kids’
Hope 1.
Peneliti menggunakan tiga metode pengumpulan data dalam penelitian ini:

observasi, wawancara, dan kuisioner. Peneliti melakukan observasi kelas,
menyebarkan kuesioner pertama kepada orangtua murid, dan melakukan
wawancara dengan tutor Bahasa Inggris dan koordinator Domby Kids’ Hope 1
untuk mengumpulkan informasi sebagai dasar pengembangan materi. Setelah
materi dirancang, peneliti menyebarkan kuesioner kedua kepada evaluator untuk
mendapatkan opini dan saran mengenai materi yang telah dibuat.
Untuk menjawab pertanyaan pertama, peneliti mengimplementasikan lima
langkah Borg and Gall educational research and development method. Langkahlangkah tersebut adalah (1) pengumpulan data dan informasi, (2) perencanaan, (3)
pengembangan produk awal, (4) uji awal produk, dan (5) revisi produk.
Untuk menjawab pertanyaan kedua, peneliti menampilkan hasil akhir
materi pembelajaran pada apendiks. Materi pembelajaran terdiri atas lima unit.
Setiap unit terbagi dalam lima bagian, yaitu (1) on your mark, (2) get set, (3) go,
(4) review, and (5) reflection.
Peneliti menganalisa data setelah preliminary test dilakukan. Hasil analisa
menunjukkan bahwa rancangan materi pembelajaran yang dibuat sesuai dan
relevan untuk anak-anak meskipun perlu dilakukan beberapa perbaikan untuk
membuat pendekatan kontekstual tampak pada rancangan materi pembelajaran.
Akhir kata, peneliti berharap materi pembelajaran ini dapat berguna bagi
tutor Bahasa Inggris dan siswa di Domby Kids’ Hope 1 dalam meningkatkan
kemampuan komunikasi siswa. Selain itu, peneliti berharap materi pembelajaran

ini dapat menginspirasi peneliti dan guru Bahasa Inggris lainnya untuk melakukan
penelitian sejenis guna mengembangkan materi pembelajaran yang lebih baik bagi
siswa.
