ABSTRACT Herlina, Maria. 2010. Designing a Set of Supplementary Instructional Grammar Materials Using Contextual Teaching and Learning for the Eleventh Grade Students of SMAN 1 Depok Yogyakarta. Yogyakarta: English Language Education Study Program, Sanata Dharma University. The implementation of School-based Curriculum which recommended that grammar should not be taught separately in English lessons limited grammar discussion in English learning. According to the School-based Curriculum, grammar learning should be delivered through the four English skills: reading, listening, speaking and writing. This condition led the writer to provide supplementary grammar materials for the students. The supplementary grammar material was designed using Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) approach to gain students’ enthusiasm since boredom was easily met in grammar learning. Therefore, this study was aimed at designing a set of supplementary instructional grammar materials using contextual teaching and learning for the eleventh grade students of SMAN 1 Depok Yogyakarta. There were two research problems formulated in this study: (1) how is a set of supplementary instructional grammar materials using Contextual Teaching and Learning for the 11th grade students of SMAN 1 Depok Yogyakarta designed? and (2) how does a set of supplementary instructional grammar materials using Contextual Teaching and Learning for the 11th grade students of SMAN 1 Depok Yogyakarta look like? To answer those problems, the writer proposed some research steps which were adapted from Kemp’s, Yalden’s and ADDIE instructional design models. Since the method used in this study was an Educational Research and Development (R&D), the writer’s research steps were suited to the first five steps of R&D. The research steps were: (1) conducting need survey, (2) reviewing the school syllabus, (3) stating competence standard, selecting basic competencies, and listing the topics, (4) listing learning objectives, (5) listing subject contents, (6) selecting learning activities, (7) designing the materials, (8) evaluating the designed materials, and (9) revising the designed materials. Based on the data obtained from distributing a questionnaire to eleventh grade students and conducting interview with English teachers of SMAN 1 Depok, the supplementary grammar materials were designed. To improve the designed materials, an evaluation was conducted by distributing a questionnaire to the experts involving an English lecturer, three English teachers and an English instructor. The evaluation result was used to present the final version of the designed grammar materials. The designed grammar materials consisted of eight units with eight grammar topics, namely (1) Simple Past Tense, (2) Past Continuous Tense, (3) Past Perfect Tense, (4) Simple Future Tense, (5) Modal Auxiliaries and Adverbs of Certainty, (6) Nouns and Nouns Phrases, (7) Pronouns and Relative Pronouns,

ABSTRAK
Herlina, Maria. 2010. Designing a Set of Supplementary Instructional Grammar Materials Using Contextual Teaching and Learning for the Eleventh Grade Students of SMAN 1 Depok Yogyakarta. Yogyakarta: Program Studi Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris, Universitas Sanata Dharma. Implementasi Kurikululum Tingkat Satuan Pendidikan (KTSP) yang menetapkan bahwa grammar sebaiknya tidak diajarkan secara terpisah dalam pelajaran Bahasa Inggris membuat pembahasan grammar dalam pembelajaran bahasa Inggris terbatas. Berdasarkan Kurikulum Tingkat Satuan Pendidikan, pembelajaran grammar sebaiknya disampaikan melalui empat skills Bahasa Inggris: membaca, menyimak, berbicara, dan menulis. Hal ini menyebabkan penulis ingin menyediakan materi pembelajaran grammar tambahan untuk siswa. Materi pembelajaran grammar tambahan ini dirancang menggunakan pendekatan Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) untuk menarik antusiasme siswa karena kebosanan seringkali ditemui dalam pembelajaran grammar. Oleh karena itu, studi ini bertujuan untuk menyusun seperangkat materi pembelajaran grammar tambahan yang menggunakan Contextual Teaching and Learning untuk siswa kelas sebelas di SMAN 1 Depok Yogyakarta. Ada dua permasalahan yang dirumuskan dalam studi ini: (1) bagamanakah seperangkat materi pembelajran grammar tambahan yang menggunakan CTL untuk siswa kelas sebelas di SMAN 1 Depok dirancang? dan (2) seperti apakah seperangkat materi pembelajaran grammar tambahan yang menggunakan CTL untuk siswa kelas sebelas di SMAN 1 Depok? Untuk menjawab dua rumusan masalah tersebut, penulis menyusun beberapa langkah penelitian yang diadaptasi dari model rancangan instruksional oleh Kemp, Yalden and ADDIE. Karena metode yang digunakan dalam studi ini adalah Educational Research and Development (R&D), langkah penelitian penulis disesuaikan dengan lima langkah pertama dalam R&D. Langkah-langkah penelitian dalam studi ini adalah: (1) melakukan analisis kebutuhan, (2) mengulas silabus sekolah, (3) menetapkan standar kompetensi, memilih kompetensi dasar, dan merumuskan topik, (4) merumuskan tujuan pembelajaran, (5) merumuskan isi materi, (6) memilih kegiatan pembelajaran, (7) merancang materi, (8) mengevaluasi materi, dan (9) merevisi materi. Penulis merancang materi pembelajaran grammar tambahan berdasarkan data yang diperoleh dari kuisioner yang disebarkan kepada siswa kelas sebelas dan interview yang dilakukan dengan guru Bahasa Inggris di SMAN 1 Depok. Sebuah evaluasi dilakukan untuk mengembangkan materi yang telah dirancang dengan menyebarkan kuisioner kepada para ahli yang meliputi seorang dosen Bahasa Inggris, tiga orang guru Bahasa Inggris dan seorang instruktur Bahasa Inggris. Hasil evaluasi digunakan untuk menyajikan versi akhir dari materi grammar yang dirancang. Materi grammar yang disusun terdiri dari delapan unit dengan delapan topik, yaitu (1) Simple Past Tense, (2) Past Continuous Tense, (3) Past Perfect

CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
This section provides basic formulations for conducting the research.
There are five major sections formulated in this chapter. They are Research
Background; it is why this research is conducted, Problem Formulation; it
includes the research questions, Problem Limitation; it is to limit the scope of
research focusing problem, Research Objectives; what to be gained by conducting
this research, Research Benefits; it is the contribution of the research towards
subject and object in which the research exists, and Definition of terms; it
describes some major terms related to this research.
A. Research Background
English is the first widely used international language in the world. Not
only American and European countries, where English is used, but also many
other countries from other continents, have acquaintance with this language as a
response to the globalization and free market era. The demand of English mastery
increases as the development of an era to open an access to the international
world. Hutchinson and Waters (1987 in Putyarini, 2003: 1) argue that as English
becomes the accepted international language and commerce, it creates a new
generation of learners who want to study English specifically based on their needs
of learning English. Realizing the importance of English, the government of
Indonesia regulates that English learning should start at an early stage in formal
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
2
education. Mastering English is not a matter of conquering a wide range of
vocabulary; it also involves the mastery of language structure. Grammar
awareness leads an English language learner to be able to produce language
accurately. The grammatical accuracy of a speaker and an addressee prevents a
misunderstanding between the two. However, grammar is not simply about form,
it is about meaning as well. In addition, grammar is also about appropriateness of
use. It is correct to say that grammar has to do with accuracy of form, but it is
insufficient. It also relates to meaningfulness and appropriateness as well (Larsen
and Freeman, 2003: 14). Another researcher proposed that the goal of foreign
language learning is not only to exchange words with people who speak that
language but actually to understand what they mean (Kramsch, 1993: 34). The
appropriateness of form of an utterance reveals the meaning to be conveyed.
Hence, people are able to transmit and receive an idea or a message clearly. The
need of a clear communication makes grammar as one of the most important
elements of language learning, as supported by Peck (1988: 127), “Language is
organized according to rules. If we don’t know the rules, we cannot communicate.
Without them, speech is no more than sounds; writing no more than
hieroglyphics.”
Besides a good lesson delivery by the teacher, the learner at the first hand
determines the success of foreign language learning. Language learning will be
meaningful if the learner is highly motivated to master the language being learnt.
As proposed by Whitehead (1967: 31 in Johnson, 2002: 37), there would be no
mental development without any interest. Interest is the base of attention and
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
3
comprehension. Nevertheless, the learners are likely to be bored and not
enthusiastic when facing a grammar lesson because of its complexity. There are
some ways to create a meaningful learning; one of those is by preventing the
learner from experiencing a boring learning situation. Conducting a contextual
teaching and learning (CTL) can be an effective way to avoid boredom in a
classroom. The quality meaning is the contextual meaning, by relating learning
material to personal and social environment (Johnson, 2002: 20). Context in CTL
deals with a real life situation related to the learner’s interest and experience,
which can motivate them to be enthusiastic about the teaching-learning process.
Therefore, the learner will pay full attention to the foreign language acquisition,
which results in a meaningful learning. This context will be realized as
instructional learning materials applied in the classroom.
However, the design of these learning materials comes to be
supplementary. Because of the prevailing rule of the School-based Curriculum
which states that grammar is a part of English language skills, an independent
grammar lesson has been removed. Grammar should be inserted in particular
English skills learning. In this study, the grammar material becomes a supplement
to enrich students’ knowledge about language structure since the main textbook
with curriculum content standard has provided the students with grammar focus.
Nevertheless, that grammar focus provides limited explanations and exercises.
Moreover, the grammar presentation in this study appears to be contextual which
can help students to gain more understanding about language structure.

The eleventh grade students of senior high school are chosen for this
research since they have been provided with and exposed to various language
structures in English lessons. They are supposed to master more complex
grammar patterns. The School-based Curriculum emphasizes giving more portions
to the reading skill in learning English at senior high school. Meanwhile, reading
texts supply various language structures to be mastered in order to comprehend
their content. This makes grammar greatly important in mastering the reading
skill. The demand of more portions in mastering reading skill appears in response
to the National Final Examination in which most questions in the examination are
provided with reading texts. Moreover, the sections which contain grammar
learning in the textbook used by the 11th grade students of Senior High School are
always preceded by reading texts.
This research took place in SMAN 1 Depok, Yogyakarta since this Senior
High School has applied the School-based Curriculum in teaching learning
process. One of the indicators is that the students’ main textbook is based on the
content standard of School-based Curriculum 2006. In addition, based on the
writer’s experience in conducting teaching practice in SMAN 1 Depok, the 11th
grade students have a high interest in language structure, in spite of their difficulty
in comprehending grammar.
B. Problem Formulation
By conducting this research, the researcher would like to find the answers
to two major questions.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
5
1. How is a set of supplementary instructional grammar materials using
Contextual Teaching and Learning for the 11th grade students of SMAN 1
Depok Yogyakarta designed?
2. How does a set of supplementary instructional grammar materials using
Contextual Teaching and Learning for the 11th grade students of SMAN 1
Depok Yogyakarta look like?
C. Problem Limitation
This research focused on the design of instructional grammar materials.
This design concerned the English instructional grammar materials, which were
correlated with the particular context, and the materials were specifically designed
for the need of the 11th grade students of Senior High School, particularly of the
2nd semester students. Context here is the real life situation related to the learner
actual environment and experience. Therefore, in this study, the topics and
grammar items chosen followed the contexts which are related to the real situation
experienced by the 11th grade students of SMAN 1 Depok, Yogyakarta.
D. Research Objectives
There are two objectives of conducting this research.
1. To find out how a set of supplementary instructional grammar materials using
Contextual Teaching and Learning for the 11th grade students of SMAN 1
Depok Yogyakarta is designed.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI

2. To present a set of supplementary instructional grammar materials using
Contextual Teaching and Learning for the 11th grade students of SMAN 1
Depok Yogyakarta.
E. Research Benefits
The result of this research should be beneficial for some parties.
a) Teachers
For teachers, this research could be a recommendation for them to encourage
the students in mastering English grammar. This material design might help
the teachers to improve their techniques, strategies, and creativity in teaching
English grammar for Senior High School.
b) Students
For students, this study was expected to help them to be better in learning
English grammar by correlating it to their real life experience, which would
attract their interest in learning.
c) Future Researchers
For future researchers, this research finding was expected to be an inspiration
in contributing a meaningful idea to create a material design for them and in
searching another finding.
F. Definition of Terms
In order to avoid readers’ misconception, the writer gives definitions of
some terms used in research.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
7
1. Instructional Design
Instruction refers to the process of teaching; knowledge or teaching given
(Hornby, 1955: 619), and Design refers to the plan developed to guide
educational activity in a situation or the plan which can be inferred by an
analyst of that activity (Houle, 1978: 230). Instructional design is the
systematic process of translating general principles of learning and instruction
into plans for instructional materials and learning
(http://www.coe.uh.edu/courses/cuin6373/whatisid.html, accessed on July 27,
2009). In this study, instructional design is the instructional learning plan
developed as a guideline for teaching educational knowledge or activity.
2. Contextual Teaching and Learning
Contextual teaching and learning (CTL) is a learning concept which helps
teachers relating learning material to learners’ real life situation, and
encouraging learners to make a correlation between the knowledge possessed
and its application in their daily life (Muslich, 2007: 41). In this study, CTL is
a concept which guides the teacher to design contextual instructional grammar
materials, in which the context here refers to the real life situation related to
the learners’ actual experiences and surroundings.
3. Grammar
Grammar is the rules by which words change their forms and are combined
into sentences, or the study or use of these rules (Longman, 2001: 795).
According to Jackson (1990: 3), grammar is the structure or organizing
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
8
principles of language. In this study, grammar is the rules or principles of
forming phrases and sentences to be an acceptable English language form.
4. Supplementary instructional material
According to the Longman (2001: 1892), supplementary is an adjective to
describe something which is provided in addition to what already exists. In
this study, the supplementary instructional material refers to the grammar
materials which become a supplement for those which have existed on
students’ English textbook at Senior High School.
5. SMAN 1 Depok, Yogyakarta
SMAN 1 Depok, Yoyakarta is a public school which is located at Babarsari,
Depok, Sleman, Yogyakarta. This Senior High School has 18 classes which
consist of grade X, XI, XII. However, this study is applied to the second grade
students or grade XI which consists of Social and Science programs. Both
programs are presented with the same grammar topics in English learning.
This school has implemented School-based Curriculum (KTSP) since
academic year of 2006/2007.

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
This chapter deals with review on literature related to the area being
searched in this study. There are two sections in this chapter: Theoretical
Description and Theoretical Framework. Theoretical Description contains
citations and paraphrases of the theories and other relevant research studies which
contribute knowledge to the focus of this study. Theoretical Framework consists
of summary and synthesis of all major relevant theories to give answers to
research questions, and this section provides the relation between theories and this
study.
A. Theoretical Description
Based on the area being searched in this study, the researcher divides this
section into three parts, namely Instructional Design Models, Grammar, and
Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL).
1. Instructional Design Models
There are some models for designing instructional learning materials. The writer
finds three models related to the area being searched.
a. Instructional Design Model by Kemp
Kemp (1977: 8 – 9) suggests a development of instructional design plan
which consists of eight interdependent elements as follows:
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
10
1) Determine goals, make a list of topic, and state the general purposes for
teaching each topic.
2) Enumerate the important characteristics of the target learners.
3) Specify the learning objectives as measurable outcomes of the learners.
4) List the subject content which supports each objective.
5) Develop pre-assessment to determine learners’ background and existing
knowledge about the topic.
6) Select teaching-learning activities and instructional resources which lead the
learners to accomplish the objectives through the subject content.
7) Coordinate support services such as budget, personnel, facilities, equipment,
and schedules to perform the instructional design plan.
8) Evaluate learners’ achievement as accomplishment of objectives, and then
revise and reevaluate any phases of the plan that need improvement.
The relationship between each element/step is illustrated as Figure 1.
Figure 1: Kemp’s Model: the relationship of each step in the plan to the other step (Kemp, 1977: 9)

11
The process in this model is flexible. Its elements are interdependent.
Therefore, a researcher may start with whichever step he is ready to start, and then
move back and forth to the other steps. However, the plan for one step may affect
the plan in another step; what is done in one step influences the later step.
b. Instructional Design Model by Yalden
Yalden (1987: 88) proposes some stages in language program
development which are constructed as follows:
1) Conducting need survey
2) Clarifying the purpose of language program based on need analysis.
3) Selecting a type of syllabus to be used in the program.
4) Describing the content of the syllabus, including general notion and specific
topics, communicative functions and events, and also grammar and lexis.
5) Providing a repertoire of words and phrases based on the functions and topics.
6) Developing and implementing the language program in the classroom (the
selection of materials, exercises, techniques and the preparation of lesson unit
plan).
7) Evaluating the whole components in the language program, involving the
students, the instructional program, and the teaching.
8) Fitting the goals with the final performance of the learners or evaluating the
program.
Yalden illustrates those stages into Figure 2.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
12
Figure 2: Yalden’s Model: Language Program Development (Yalden, 1987: 88)
This model provides a clear order for every element to be followed.
Nevertheless, the elements of proto and pedagogical syllabuses production are not
significant since they have been represented by the selection and development of a
syllabus type.
Richards (1990: 15) states that an effective instructional material has some
characteristics: (1) it maintains students’ interests, (2) it is appropriate to students’
need and background, (3) it provides examples of how language is used, (4) it
provides meaningful activities for students, and (5) it provides communicative and
authentic language use.
Referring to those characteristics, the researcher adopts some steps of
design models of Kemp and Yalden to be the procedure in conducting this study.
Those steps are need survey, goals description, materials design and development,
evaluation, and revision.

a. The Nature of Grammar
Larsen and Freeman (2003: 13 – 19) proposed some statements of the
nature of grammar which are relevant with this study as follow
1) Grammar has to do with accuracy.
Grammar accuracy involves the accuracy of form and that of meaning.
Larsen and Freeman (2003: 14) say, “Grammar is not simply about form; it is
about meaning as well. It is not incorrect, but it is insufficient, to say that
grammar has to do with accuracy of form; it relates to meaningfulness and
appropriateness as well.” For instance, when a student produces the sentence The
day is shiny, while its intended meaning is The day was shiny, he creates a correct
form of sentence but he fails to convey his intended meaning.
2) Grammar has to do with rules and reasons.
Rules serve the generalization about the form of language. However, rules
have exceptions. Knowing the existence of exceptions in grammar learning,
Larsen and Freeman prefer to think of teaching rules and reasons. By teaching
reason, a teacher helps the students to realize the underlying logic to the language
they are learning. If they understand the logic of the language, they will be able to
understand rules and their exceptions.
3) Grammar is non-arbitrary.
Grammar seems arbitrary since the same rules of form may produce
different meanings. For instance, the existential there which fills the subject
position in the sentence There is the snowstorm coming. When someone says
There is the snowstorm, he might be warning listener of the snowstorm. By giving
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
14
stress in the word there, it is a locative adverbial there. However, Larsen and
Freeman (2003: 16) believe that “once a form has been settled upon to convey a
particular meaning, then arbitrariness is less of an issue.”
Generally, Larsen and Freeman (2003: 142) formulate that
“Grammar(ing) is one of the dynamic linguistic processes of pattern formation in
language, which can be used by humans for making meaning in context-
appropriate way.”
However, the nature of grammar can not be defined by considering
only one expert’s opinion since different experts may have different definition of
what grammar is. Grammar is considered as the rules of a language, which
concerns the way where the language user or learner can put words together in
order to make sentences (Collins, 1990: 632). Meanwhile, Jackson (1990: 3)
considers grammar as the structural or organizing principles of language which
include syntax and morpheme.
Based on the definitions proposed by some experts above, grammar is
a tool for creating a meaningful unit derived from combination of words.
Grammar deals with rules of constructing sentences in order to be acceptable in
form and meaning. In this study, the design of grammar materials focused on
sentence construction by considering the accuracy of form and meaning based on
the rules and the reason follows.

b. Grammar Learning
In association with language learning, Larsen and Freeman (2003: 19 – 23)
divide this section into two parts: the Learning of Grammar and the Teaching of
Grammar.
1) The Learning of Grammar
There are three statements apply to the learning of grammar.
a) Grammar is not acquired naturally; it has to be taught.
It is a myth that grammar is acquired naturally, that it does not need to be
taught. As Larsen and Freeman (2003:78) argue that only view learners would
learn grammar outside classroom as efficiently as within classroom, even if they
have an opportunity to live in a community where the target language is spoken.
The perception that grammar can be acquired naturally is prevailed to the first
language (L1) acquisition, but not to the second language (L2) learning.
b) Grammar structures are not acquired in a set order
When learners have mastered a particular form of language structure, it is
possible for them to find backsliding, when their performance regresses, when
new forms are introduced. The language acquisition process has no linear nature.
c) All aspects of grammar are not learned in the same way.
There is no single mechanism for all aspects of grammatical structure
acquisition. The complexity of language makes one explanation about grammar
insufficient.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
16
According to Larsen and Freeman (2003), there are three dimensions of
grammar that play an important role in language learning, they are form, meaning,
and use. Below is the figure of the three dimensions of grammar.
Figure 3: A Three-Dimensional Grammar Framework (Larsen and Freeman, 2003: 35)
a) Form
It is how a language unit is formed. It is related to the pattern or structure
of constructing an acceptable unit of language.
b) Meaning
It is related to the essential meaning of a language unit. The general
categories of meaning are called notions. Notions deal with space (location,
distance, motion, size) and time (indication of time, duration, sequence).
c) Use
It is related to when and why a language unit is used. This dimension has
the units of social functions (such as promising, inviting, agreeing, disagreeing,
Form Meaning (Semantics) Use (Pragmatics)
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
17
and apologizing) and discourse patterns (such as those that contribute to the
cohesion of text).
Form, meaning, and use of language are interdependent dimensions. A
successful language learner is one who is able to produce a correct form of
language with its intended meaning, and to deliver a language form for an
appropriate purpose. Hence, in language learning, those three dimensions are to be
learned without exception in order to master target language. Once a learner has
mastered a target language, he is capable of communicating it accurately.
Therefore, the design of grammar materials in this study dealt with the form of
acceptable English sentence which conveys its intended meaning by performing
its appropriate use.
2) The Teaching of Grammar
There are two relevant statements apply to the teaching of grammar.
a) Grammar has to do with practice
Larsen and Freeman (2003: 13) believe that by practicing, learners learn
how to use the language. However, this practice should not be the sort of
repetition, which is boring. A lot of rote repetition does not overcome the inert
knowledge problem of grammar learning, which is the response of displeasure
from the students when they are asked to have a grammar exercise.
b) Feedback is necessary in teaching grammar.
Feedback means evaluative information available to learners concerning
their linguistic performance (Larsen and Freeman, 2003: 123). The job of an
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
18
English teacher is to maximize learning by shaping optimal conditions for it to
take place. Receiving feedback on learners’ performance so that they can see what
is acceptable and what is not is one of those optimal conditions.
c) Grammar (teaching and/or learning) is never boring.
It is the duty of an English teacher to engage the students to focus on what
they are learning. The teacher should find a way to make grammar practice
meaningful, not to present a system of static rules. Nevertheless, grammar
teaching is a complex process, which cannot be treated by repeating the same set
of procedures while expecting the same results (Larsen and Freeman, 2003: 140).
Peck (1988: 145 - 148) suggests five categories of grammar teaching
which are the principles or steps of teaching grammar.
a) Identification
The teacher focuses the students’ attention on certain ‘key’ forms of rules.
It might be done by directing attention to verbs occurring in a certain tense.
b) Classification
The teacher invites the students to distribute and arrange the grammatical
features. Classification can be done by naming the words by part of speech,
arranging verbs by gender, or labeling the unit by grammatical terminology, e.g.
simple, present, and continuous.
c) Systematization
The teacher brings the observed grammatical features under the rule. This
can be done by stating or illustrating the purposes for which certain structures are
used, e.g. the future tense is used to indicate intention or prediction.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
19
d) Application
The teacher ascertains that the former explanation or information has been
understood and retained by the students by asking them to apply the rule to the
further examples.
e) Generalization
The teacher gives a general statement or states a rule to cover all
grammatical features and examples of a certain type of form.
Concerning the nature of grammar and grammar learning above, this study
focuses on the rules for forming an acceptable unit of language which is sentence.
In forming an acceptable sentence of English, a learner is supposed to learn not
only form but also meaning and use. Either learner or teacher is insisted to play an
important role to succeed grammar learning. There are some principles to be
applied by the teacher in teaching grammar, namely Identification, Classification,
Systematization, Application and Generalization. These principles are believed to
be effective ways to teach grammar in second or foreign language learning.
Those five principles would be a consideration for the writer in designing
grammar materials in this study.
3. Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL)
The understanding about CTL is exposed through two following scopes;
they are The Nature of CTL and The Characteristics of CTL.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
20
a. The Nature of CTL
Muslich (2007: 41) defines CTL as a learning concept that helps the
teacher to create a relation between learning materials presented and learners’ real
life environment, and to encourage the learners to relate their existing knowledge
to its application in their daily life. According to Muslich, the philosophical basis
of CTL is Constructivism, which emphasizes that learning is not merely a matter
of memorizing, but reconstructing or developing knowledge and skills through
facts and proportions the learners experience in their real life.
COR (Center for Occupational Research) in America formulates five
concepts of CTL with abbreviation REACT (Muslich, 2007: 41 – 42).
1) Relating
Learning has to correlate real life situation with new information to be
understood or with problems to be solved.
2) Experiencing
The knowledge is attained through learning by giving priority to thinking
process with inquiry cycle.
3) Applying
Learning is implementing the result of learning to the practical use and need.
4) Cooperating
Learning is sharing information and experience, responding, and
communicating. Cooperating is consistent to the contextual learning.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
21
5) Transferring
Learning is exploiting knowledge and experience to gain new knowledge and
learning experience based on new context.
According to Johnson (2002: 65), CTL is a comprehensive system which
consists of interrelated parts. If those parts are united, the result of those will be
better than that of being given by each part. CTL is a system of learning which is
based on a philosophy that students will be able to absorb the learning if they are
able to catch the meaning in the given academic materials and they will be able to
catch the meaning in the learning tasks if they are able to correlate the new
information with their existing knowledge and experiences (Johnson, 2002: 14).
Based on contextual teaching and learning point of view, meaning
appears from the connection between content and context. The context gives
meaning to the content. The more connections students find in a wide context, the
more meaningful the content for them. Contextual teaching and learning involves
the learners in a significant activity that helps them to relate academic learning to
their real life context.
The science of nervous system ascertains the relation between human’s
brains with meaning. The brain creates meaning of new information by
connecting it with the existing knowledge and skills. The brain searches for
meaning and keeps it continuously. This is why the learning process needs to
involve the students in finding meaning by understanding what they are learning.
Because of its framework that invites learners to make connections to find
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
22
meaning, CTL is potential to gain students’ interest which is the base for the
attention and understanding to the learning (Johnson, 2002: 37).
In addition, Johnson (2002) suggests that CTL has three scientific
principles which make contextual teaching and learning move towards academic
superiority, they are
1) Interdependent principle
Language is an interdependent unit. Without interdependence, language
would stop, together with other connections in the human brain since we would
not be able to think and to communicate. This interdependent principle guides
human to the creation of relationship, not to the isolation. This principle is in line
with CTL, which enables the language learners to make connections to find
meaning.
2) Differentiation principle
Differentiation refers to the continual stimulus from the universe to
produce unlimited diversity and uniqueness. Differentiation principle contributes
creativity. The teacher of CTL applies this principle in classroom to present
creativity, uniqueness, diversity, and cooperation. In CTL, the students are
challenged to think creatively to increase cooperation with their classmates to
carry out their self-regulated learning, and to develop by their own steps.
3) Self-regulation principle
In self-regulation principle, all the things are regulated, defended, and
realized by self. According to this principle, the teachers are to encourage the
students to explore their potencies by relating the tasks to their personal
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
23
experience and knowledge. When the learners create a relationship between the
academic context and their personal real life, they are involved in self-regulation
principle.
b. The Characteristics of CTL
Referring to the definition of REACT, Muslich (2007: 42) formulates
seven characteristics of CTL, as follows
1) Learning in real life setting
Learning is in the authentic context. It is aimed at skill achievement which is
carried out in natural environment.
2) Meaningful learning
Learning provides students with meaningful tasks.
3) Learning by doing
Learning is carried out by presenting meaningful experience to the students.
4) Learning in a group
Learning is conducted through working in a group and peer assessment.
5) Learning to know each other deeply
Learning provides students with opportunity to create togetherness, to
cooperate, and to have mutual understanding.
6) Learning to ask, to inquiry, to work together
Learning is carried out actively, creatively, productively, and by giving
priority to cooperation.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
24
7) Learning as an enjoyable activity
Learning is carried out in an enjoyable situation.
In language learning, CTL is applied as an approach in conducting
teaching learning process. Contextual teaching and learning is considered to be
effective for language learning since its framework follows brain’s framework
which drives a connection between information or stimulus received and language
transmitted. In addition, the brain function follows the principles of
interdependence, self-organization, and differentiation which are the scientific
principles of CTL. These principles are needed in language learning to gain
learners’ enthusiasm.
Some of the characteristics of CTL are relevant to this study. The
materials design in this study reveals learning in real life setting. The learning
materials are related to learners’ real life context through providing meaningful
tasks and enjoyable activities which involve their cooperation in group. Therefore,
a meaningful and enjoyable learning condition is created.
B. Theoretical Framework
Grammar is related to the form, meaning and use. Therefore, grammar
learning cannot be separated from those three dimensions. Meanwhile, Contextual
Teaching and Learning (CTL) is related to the concept of REACT which stands
for Relating, Experiencing, Applying, Cooperating and Transferring. The theories
of grammar and CTL would be a consideration in designing the materials in this
study. The writer took some principles of teaching grammar by Peck (1988: 145 -
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
25
148) and some characteristics of CTL by Muslich (2007: 42) to be applied in the
designed materials.
Reviewing the instructional design models by Kemp and Yalden, the
writer adopted some steps from those models. The writer considered those two
models since they complete each other and provide the steps needed in this study.
The general form of theoretical framework of this study follows Yalden’s design
model. Nevertheless, the steps in the framework are the combination of the two
models. The writer carried out some major steps, namely identifying learner’s
need, reviewing the syllabus, designing the materials, and revising the designed
materials.
1) Conducting need survey
In this study, need survey is important to be conducted for gaining data about
what the learners need in their materials. This data is to help the materials
designer to develop the materials and activities, to state the goals, and to
evaluate the existing syllabus.
2) Reviewing the school syllabus
The writer is not going to design a syllabus since it has existed in Senior High
School in which the study takes place. Hence, the writer conducts a review to
the existing syllabus by referring to the research need.
3) Stating competence standard, selecting basic competencies, and listing the
topics
The determination of competence standard and basic competencies is in
accordance to School-based Curriculum for the second grade students of
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
26
Senior High School. The topics chosen are suited to the school syllabus and
students’ main textbook.
4) Listing learning objectives
Learning objectives are the indicators to be attained in each teaching learning
activity.
5) Listing subject contents
Since the materials being designed are supplementary to the existing materials,
the subject contents follow the School-based Curriculum and theories of
grammar and CTL.
6) Selecting learning activities
The learning activities are presented as media to achieve learning objectives.
Hence, the design of activities in classroom should be meaningful for the
students. These activities are related to learners’ real life setting based on the
principles of CTL.
7) Designing materials
The learning materials are developed based on the syllabus.
8) Evaluating the designed materials
The writer only evaluates the designed materials since this design was not
implemented. Hence, the writer cannot evaluate the learners and the teaching
learning activities.
9) Revising the evaluated materials
After obtaining feedback from the materials evaluators, the writer revise the
designed materials to have the final version of the designed materials.

METHODOLOGY
This chapter presents how this research was conducted. It includes
Research Method; the type of research, Participants; a group of people to whom
the method of this study is applied, Instruments; the devices employed in
collecting data, Data Gathering and Analysis Techniques; the steps in compiling
data and the ways in interpreting data, and Research Procedure; the typical
stages/steps taken in conducting the research.
A. Research Method
The research was an educational Research and Development (R&D) in
which the research process is used to develop the designed materials. Borg and
Gall (1983: 772) stated that educational research and development (R&D) is a
process used to develop and validate educational products. According to Borg and
Gall (1983: 775), there was a cycle to be followed. In R &D cycle, there are ten
major steps.
The steps of writer’s research framework were in line with the steps in
R&D. Proving that they were in line, the writer’s steps were to be compared with
the first five steps of R &D which include (1) research and information collecting,
(2) planning, (3) develop preliminary form of product, (4) preliminary field
testing, and (5) main product revision. Meanwhile, the writer’s research
framework had nine steps, they are (1) need survey, (2) syllabus review, (3) listing
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI

B. Research Participants
This study was carried out in SMAN 1 Depok Yogyakarta. The
participants of this research were the students of 11th grade and the English
teachers of 11th grade. Since this study was aimed at the 11th grade students of
Senior High School in general, this study took both Social and Science Program
classes as research samples. The survey was conducted to 1 class of Social
Program and 1 class of Science Program. Those participants used the same
English textbook for English lesson, which suited to the content standard of
School-based Curriculum. The other participants in this study were three English
teachers of the classes being surveyed, an English instructor from an educational
institution and a lecturer of English Education Study Program of Sanata Dharma
University. These five participants were to give comment and evaluation to the
designed grammar materials.
C. Research Instruments
In this study, there were two instruments used by writer to collect data.
These instruments were questionnaire and interview.
1. Questionnaire
Best (1970: 162 - 163) stated that there are two types of questionnaire,
namely “restricted or closed-form” and “unrestricted or open-form.” Closed-
form questionnaire calls for short check response, while open-form calls for
free response in the respondents’ own words. Hence, the writer composed
closed and open questionnaires. Closed-form questionnaire consisted of
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
31
statements about grammar learning which are supplied with points of
agreements to be chosen by the participants, while open questionnaire
provided some spaces to be filled by them related to their further opinions or
suggestions about grammar learning. The questionnaire was also distributed to
the materials evaluators to collect data about their opinions and evaluations to
the designed grammar materials.
2. Interview
Seliger and Shahomy (1986: 166) suggested that an interview was
conducted to obtain information by talking to the subject. In this study, the
interview was conducted to two English teachers of 11th grade of SMAN 1
Depok, Yogyakarta. One English teacher handled the science program class
and the other handled the social program class. This interview was to find out
further information about students’ needs in learning English grammar from
teachers’ point of views.
D. Data Gathering Technique
In gathering data about students’ need and interest, the writer
distributed questionnaire to the 11th grade students of SMAN 1 Depok,
Yogyakarta. The questionnaire’s content involved:
(1) Students’ interest and difficulty in learning English
(2) Students’ interest and difficulty in learning English grammar
(3) Students’ understanding of English grammar
(4) Students’ preferable activity and media in learning English grammar
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
32
(5) The implementation of School-based Curriculum
The distribution of the questionnaire was done on October 27, 2009 in XI IPS
1 and XI IPA 1 classes.
To find out about students’ need, characteristics and class situation
during the lesson, the writer conducted an interview to two English teachers
who handled Science and Social Program classes of 11th grade. The writer
held the interview on October 27, 2009 at the first break time and on October
30, 2009 at the second break time. Both interviews were conducted in the
library.
To collect data on evaluators’ opinions and suggestions in evaluating
the design materials, the writer provided closed and open questionnaires.
Those evaluators consisted of three English teachers, an English lecturer, and
an English instructor. The questionnaires were distributed on January 2, 2010.
The writer collected these questionnaires two weeks after on January 15, 2010.
The data from these questionnaires would guide the writer to have final
revision of the designed grammar materials.
E. Data Analysis Technique
Since this study is a descriptive research, the writer made a description
of the data by analyzing the questionnaires and interviews results. Through the
questionnaire, the writer wanted to measure the tendency of the respondents’
opinion. To find the central tendency of those, the writer provided the
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
33
questionnaire with four points of measurement to see respondents’ agreement
on the statements given. Those points are presented in Table 3.1.
Table 3.1: Questionnaire’s Points of Measurement
Points of Measurement Level Agreement
1 Strongly Disagree
2 Disagree
3 Agree
4 Strongly Agree
According to Best (1970: 225), central tendency measurement deals
with series of characteristics or scores. There are three indicators for
measuring central tendency; they are Mean, Median and Mode. Mean is the
arithmetic average and is obtained by accounting, Median is mid-point of the
ordered scores, and Mode is the most frequently occurring score. Following is
the formula for computing Mean
M = ∑X
N Where : M = Mean of the Scores
∑ = Sigma (Sum of)
X = Scores
N = Number of Scores (based on the number of respondents)
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
34
Then, the data were presented in a central tendency table which
consists of Statements, Points of Agreement and Mean.

F. Research Procedure
Research procedures are the procedures or steps which the writer
had conducted in carrying out this study. All the procedures taken can be
concluded in following four major steps.
1. Conducting need analysis by distributing questionnaires to Science and
Social Program classes of the 11th grade students of SMAN 1 Depok,
Yogyakarta and performing an interview to two English teachers of 11th
grade of the same school.
2. Designing a set of supplementary instructional grammar materials based
on the result of need survey.
3. Distributing questionnaires to five materials evaluators involving of three
English teachers, an English lecturer, and one English instructor.
4. Revising the design materials based on the evaluation from the
questionnaires of the evaluators.

CHAPTER IV
RESEARCH FINDINGS AND DISCUSSION
In this section, the writer would like to answer the two research problems
formulated in Chapter I. This section consists of the findings of the research, the
discussion on materials evaluation and the presentation of the designed materials.
The first part, research findings, reveals the steps of how a set of supplementary
instructional grammar materials using Contextual Teaching and Learning for the
11th grade students of SMAN 1 Depok Yogyakarta is designed. The second part,
the discussion on materials evaluation, presents the writer’s responses to the
evaluators’ opinions. Meanwhile, the third part, the presentation of the designed
materials, shows how a set of supplementary instructional grammar materials
using Contextual Teaching and Learning for the 11th grade students of SMAN 1
Depok Yogyakarta looks like.
A. Research Findings
This section is to answer the first question of problem formulation, how a
set of supplementary instructional grammar materials using Contextual Teaching
and Learning for the 11th grade students of SMAN 1 Depok Yogyakarta is
designed. Searching for the answer to this problem, the writer conducted some
steps as research theoretical framework. Considering some instructional design
models like Kemp’s and Yalden’s, the writer proposed nine steps of research
theoretical framework. These steps were in line with the first five steps of R&D.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
36
1. Conducting Need Survey
A need survey was conducted to find out students’ interests, difficulty and
understanding in learning English, especially in learning grammar. This need
survey was realized in the form of questionnaire and interview. The questionnaire
was distributed to the 11th grade students of SMAN 1 Depok, particularly
distributed to XI IPS 1 and XI IPA 1 classes which consisted of 65 participants.
The questionnaire was distributed on October 27, 2009 in the classrooms.
Meanwhile the participants of the interview were two English teachers of the 11th
grade. The interview was done on October 27, 2009 and October 30, 2009 at
break times in the library. Besides to gather data about students’ interests,
difficulty and understanding in learning English, the questionnaire was also to
gain students’ opinions on their preferable activities and media in learning
English. The students were also asked about some themes they liked most in
learning English based on their real life condition and environment. An interview
was conducted to the two English teachers in searching for students’ interests,
difficulty and understanding in learning English so that the information gathered
was obtained from teachers’ and learners’ points of view. Therefore, the data
gathered from students were strengthened by those from teachers.
After distributing the questionnaire, it was found that the difficulty the
students met in learning grammar was that they hardly understood when to use a
certain tense or pattern in forming a sentence. Through the questionnaire it could
be seen in which skill students liked most to learn grammar. Most of them chose
listening and speaking. These students stated that games, role plays or dialogues
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
37
and exercises were their preferable activities in leaning English. Meanwhile,
pictures and audio recording were chosen to be their favorite learning media in
materials presentation. Related to students’ real life condition or environment, the
students suggested themes about their favorites or idols, family, daily or outdoor
activities, holiday or traveling, unforgettable experience, best friend, dreams or
ideals and school life.
Through the interview, the English teachers justified the information about
their students’ interests, difficulty and understanding in learning English,
especially in learning grammar. The teachers saw that their students were quite
interested in grammar learning because it was delivered through English skills.
But their understanding about grammar was relatively low. It was difficult for
those students to identify when to use a particular pattern or what pattern to be
applied to convey an appropriate meaning in producing a sentence or an utterance.
The teachers found that students’ enthusiasm to grammar learning came up when
they used an audio-visual media and games in delivering the materials. The audio-
visual media could be realized through songs and pictures.
Furthermore, the teachers were asked whether the implementation of the
Scholl-based Curriculum influenced students’ understanding of grammar or not.
They stated that it indirectly affected students’ understanding since the School-
based Curriculum recommends grammar not be taught separately. Grammar
should be conveyed through four English skills. Consequently, grammar
presentation in English learning was limited.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
38
Concerning Contextual Teaching and Learning, the teachers recommended
the writer provide texts in the designed materials to begin the units. These texts
could be suited to students’ daily life setting. According to those English teachers,
reading was a good lead-in activity to enter the topic being learnt.
2. Reviewing the School Syllabus
Since SMAN 1 Depok Yogyakarta had formed a syllabus for English
learning, the writer decided to review it. It was done to determine competence
standard, basic competence, topics, objectives, subject contents and activities to
be developed in designing research syllabus and designing grammar materials.
The school syllabus was designed by the English teachers of SMAN 1 Depok and
matched the eleventh grade English textbook with School-based Curriculum
content standard. This syllabus review became a guidance to construct the
research syllabus.
3. Stating Competence Standard, Selecting Basic Competence, and Listing
the Topics
By reviewing the school syllabus, the writer was able to state competence
standards, to select basic competence and to list the topics being developed. The
writer chose the competence standards and basic competence which were
appropriate with the topics being developed. These topics were adopted from
students’ textbook with School-based Curriculum content standard. The chosen
competence standards were numbers 8, 10, 11 and 12 which were related to
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
39
sentence patterns. For the basic competence, the writer believed that numbers 8.2,
10.2, 11.2, and 12.2 were suited to the topics which gave access to grammar
learning. The stated competence standards and selected basic competence were
completely presented in the research syllabus in Appendix G.
Being convinced of the selected competence standards and basic
competence, the writer listed the topics to be developed in the designed grammar
materials. There were eight developed topics; they were (1) Simple Past Tense,
(2) Past Continuous Tense, (3) Past Perfect Tense, (4) Simple Future Tense, (5)
Modal Auxiliaries and Adverbs of Certainty, (6) Nouns and Noun Phrases, (7)
Pronouns and Relative Pronouns, and (8) Compound and Complex Sentences.
Each topic would be developed in each unit of the designed materials. The topics
selected were not only based on the school syllabus but also based on the
students’ main textbook and the students’ needs for daily communication. Topics
1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8 matched the school syllabus and the main textbook while
topic 4 was considered to be commonly used in learners’ real life conversation.
4. Listing Learning Objectives
In the research syllabus, learning objectives were considered as indicators.
These indicators were the goals to be attained by the students for every unit of
grammar materials presentation. The skills to be practiced and the selected basic
competence in each unit influenced formulation of the indicators. These indicators
should involve students’ ability to apply a grammar topic being learnt into writing
or speaking skills. Producing their own sentences or utterances with their intended
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
40
meaning would prove that the students had attained the indicators. Learning
objectives of each unit can be seen in the research syllabus in Appendix G.
5. Listing subject contents
After listing the learning objectives, the writer listed subject contents of
each unit of the materials. In determining the subject contents, the writer took the
theory of grammar by Peck as stated in Chapter 2 and CTL concepts into
consideration. The subject contents of the materials were divided into four parts.
They were (a) Let’s Get Started, (b) Enjoy This, (c) Language Focus, and (d) Try
This.
(a) Let’s Get Started
This section provides lead-in to the topic being discussed in the unit. The
writer filled this part with a text, a dialogue or leading questions. This lead-in
part should be based on the competence standards and basic competence as
stated in the syllabus, for example, the type of the text attached should be
narrative, spoof or hortatory exposition. Let’s Get Started will become an
access to the grammar materials in the unit.
(b) Enjoy This
Enjoyable activities are provided for the students in this part. It is necessary to
encourage students’ enthusiasm to the learning and to avoid boredom in
grammar learning. Enjoy This was a type of lead-in to the grammar topic to be
exposed without taking competence standards and basic competence into
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
41
consideration. This part is one of the implications of Contextual Teaching and
Learning concepts that learning is an enjoyable activity.
(c) Language Focus
Since the designed materials are an instructional grammar material, Language
Focus might be the core of grammar discussion in each unit. It provides an
explanation about the use of a certain grammar pattern and examples.
Language Focus will lead the students to be able to state the language pattern
of the grammar being discussed.
(d) Try This
To see whether the indicators of each unit is attained or not, a set of exercises
are presented in the last part of subject content. Try This supplied the unit with
meaningful tasks. Those tasks consist of writing or speaking exercises.
Through this part, the students could practice their understanding about
grammar by producing correct sentences or utterances. Concerning CTL
concepts, the exercises in each unit are cooperative tasks. It is realized through
pair or group assignments.
6. Selecting Learning Activities
Learning activity selection depended on learning objectives or indicators
which had been stated. The activities in each unit fulfilled the need of reading,
listening, writing and speaking skills. In the syllabus, these activities were
classified into three parts: Pre-activity, Whilst-activity and Post-activity. Pre-
activity is comprised of activities which provided an access to the grammar topic
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
42
being discussed in each unit. It contains activities which are connected to the
prevailing curriculum like reading narrative or spoof texts, and activities which
are enjoyable to attract students’ attention to the learning like listening to an
English song. Whilst-activity provides discussion about grammar use and
examples, and it provides the students with some grammar exercises. Meanwhile,
post-activity presents the final activity to apply grammar topic being learnt. Each
unit of designed materials has different learning activities. The selection of
learning activities also considered students’ preferable activities, for example, in
some units there is a game, a dialogue or a role play. Learning activities of each
unit can be seen in the research syllabus in Appendix G.
7. Designing Materials
After the topics, the subject contents, and the activities determined, a set of
supplementary instructional grammar materials was designed. The materials
consist of eight units with eight different topics, with the same subject content
sections and with different activities. In developing the eight topics of grammar,
the writer filtered eight themes suggested by the students through the distributed
questionnaire. Therefore, every unit of materials has different theme. Not to be out
of CTL concept, each theme is related to students’ real life conditions.
Table 4.1 shows how the writer developed eight units of supplementary
grammar materials.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI

Table 4.1: Writer’s Units Development
Unit Topic Theme Title
1 Simple Past Tense Joining an extracurricular
I did my homework last night
2 Past Continuous Tense Having a holiday I was preparing my vacation
3 Past Perfect Tense My favorite I had eaten my favorite menu
4 Simple Future Tense My ideals I am going to the cinema tomorrow
5 Modal Auxiliaries and Adverbs of Certainty My bedroom I absolutely can do it
6 Nouns and Noun Phrases My feeling I love my old red
shoes
7 Pronouns and Relative Pronouns My country She helped the man
who was sick
8 Compound and Complex Sentences My family
My cousins are clever and they are friendly
8. Evaluating the Designed Materials
Realizing the set of supplementary grammar materials developed was not
perfect and needed an improvement, the writer distributed the designed materials
completed with general description of the materials, a research syllabus, and an
example of lesson unit plan to be evaluated. The evaluation was aimed at getting
feedback from the evaluators through the distributed questionnaire to improve the
materials. Therefore, the final version of the designed materials could be set. Five
evaluators of the designed materials were chosen. The evaluation was conducted
by distributing a questionnaire in the form of open-form and closed-form
questionnaire on January 2, 2010 and the questionnaire was collected a week
after.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
44
a. The description of the evaluators
The five evaluators were chosen because they had experiences in
teaching English. Three of them were the English teachers of SMAN 1 Depok
who used to handle the eleventh grade students. The others were a lecturer of
English Education study program of Sanata Dharma University and an English
instructor of ELTI, an English course institution.
Table 4.2 presents the description of the evaluators.

b. Data presentation
Since the questionnaire distributed to evaluate the materials
consisted of closed-form and open form items, there are two kinds of data to
be presented in this section. The first data was presented in form of level of
agreements as closed-form items. The points of agreement indication are
1 = Strongly Disagree
2 = Disagree
3 = Agree
4 = Strongly Agree

9. Revising the Designed Materials
Considering the result of materials’ evaluation, the writer revised the
designed materials to produce the final version of supplementary grammar
materials. In addition, the writer also revised the syllabus due to its shortage
according to the evaluators’ opinions.
a. Materials revision
The materials revision was applied to three points, they were
1) Subject content
Considering the evaluator’s opinions, the writer did some
improvements to subject contents. First, the writer revised some grammatical
mistakes and mistypes in the reading texts and dialogues in ‘Let’s get started’
section. Some illustrations were also added to this section according to an
evaluator’s suggestion. It was done to make this part more attractive for the
students as a lead-in to the learning.
An improvement was also applied to ‘Language focus’ section.
Since an evaluator considered this part a bit boring, the writer put a graph to
explain the use of a particular pattern in a particular time. The graphs were
added to units 1 to 4 which discussed basic tenses. These graphs could also
help the students to understand the use of language pattern more easily. For
other units, the writer added tables in ‘Language focus’.
2) Activity and exercise
Referring to the evaluation, the activities served in the materials
needed improvement to make them more enjoyable for the students. Hence,
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
48
the writer revised some activities, especially in ‘Enjoy This’ sections. In unit
4, 5 and 6, the writer filled the activity with reading spoof texts and pictures
which provided funny stories. Furthermore, the spoof text in the designed
materials was matched to Competence Standard in School-based Curriculum.
To improve the variety of activities, a revision of ‘Let’s Get Started’ part,
particularly in Units 3, 4 and 5 was made. The revision will be shown by
Table 4.5.
Table 4.5: The revision on activities
Instruction Before revision

The writer also added questions to ‘Let’s Get Started’ and ‘Enjoy
This’ sections as the follow-up activity and as the leading to the topic being
discussed in each unit.
Meanwhile, the revision was also done to the exercises. By
changing some exercises, it was expected that the exercise’s level of difficulty
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
49
was appropriate to the eleventh grade students. Table 4.6 shows the revision
on Exercise 1 in Units 1 and 2.
Table 4.6: The revision on exercises
Instruction Before revision
Add a sentence for each picture related to you High School experience! Then, share it to your friends in a group of three!
Unit 1
After revision
Work in pairs. Complete the short conversations using Simple Past Tense and add a conversation for each picture based on your high school experience! Then, practice those conversations with your partner!
Before revision
A group of students were staying in a hotel to spend their summer holiday. One evening the fire alarm rang. Use the words in the brackets to make sentence saying what each person was doing at the time.
Unit 2
After revision
Work in a group of three. Student A is to ask student B and C the following questions. Student B and C are to answer according to their holiday experiences using Past Continuous Tense. Do it in turn!
For activities and exercises which were adapted from other sources
and which included pictures in it, the writer attached the sources as being
recommended by an evaluator.
3) Layout
Taking one of the evaluators’ suggestions into account, the writer
reshuffled the designed materials’ cover. The cover was fitted to the grammar
learning. It was illustrated by some pictures of grammar patterns and
examples. To make the cover reflect its content, it was also decorated with
some illustrations related to Contextual Teaching and Learning like learning in
pair.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
50
b. Syllabus revision
In response to the evaluation result, there were three improvements
applied to the research syllabus.
1) First, the writer revised the learning activities by varying the types of
activity in each unit.
2) Second, the learning activities part was divided into three types of activity;
they are pre-activity, whilst-activity and post-activity. Pre-activity consists
of leading activities to the topic being discussed. Whilst-activity is the core
of learning; it supplies the topic explanation and some exercises related to
the topic. Post-activity is the last activity to activate the students in
applying the topic.
2) Third, as suggested by an evaluator, the writer added a column of learning
sources. It contains the sources of ‘Language Focus’, some exercises,
pictures and song lyrics.
The final version of research syllabus can be seen in Appendix G.
B. The Discussion on Materials Evaluation
The data gathered from materials evaluation which is presented in the
Tables 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5 can be further explained in following discussion.
1. The materials evaluation
Referring to the data collected through the evaluation
questionnaire, generally, the designed materials were able to encourage the
students to correlate their knowledge with their daily life environment and
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
51
experience. The results of materials evaluation can be discussed based on five
points.
a. Topic
The value of central tendency in Table 4.3 for statement 2 which was 2.6
indicated that the respondents disagreed that all the topics in the developed
materials were relevant to students’ needs. Being further asked, one of
those respondents said that Simple Future Tense was not really significant
for the eleventh grade students. However, they thought that the chosen
topics were well reflected by the designed materials.
Nevertheless, the writer decided not to replace the topic of each
unit in the designed materials. Although some respondents stated that not
all the topics were relevant to students’ need, the writer believed that all
the topics could enrich student’s grammar knowledge. Although Simple
Future Tense looked easy for eleventh grade students, the writer provided
more detailed explanation about its function which did not exist in
students’ former textbook.
b. Theme
Almost all the evaluators agreed that the theme of each unit
supported the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) concept since the
themes proposed by the writer were related to the learners’ real life
experience and environment. This was shown by central tendency (value =
3) for statement 3 in Table 4.3. The writer totally agreed with the
respondents since it was obviously seen that the theme of each unit
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
52
reflected learners’ real life setting which was one of the indications of the
application of CTL concept.
c. Subject content
Through an open-form item in the questionnaire, an evaluator
suggested that there were some shortages in the subject content. First,
‘Let’s get started’ part lacked of illustration. Second, it was said by an
evaluator that ‘Language focus’ section was a bit boring since it was
presented in a common way. In addition, an evaluator found that the
design materials contained some grammatical mistakes or mistypes in
‘Let’s get started’ part, especially in the reading texts and dialogues. The
writer agreed to make some necessary improvements based on the
participants’ opinion since it would be beneficial to add some illustration
in leading part and to improve ‘Language Focus’ to attract learners’
attention.
d. Activity and exercise
In general, the respondents stated that the activities in the designed
materials had been provided communicatively and had fulfilled CTL-
based concept. These activities made the materials become an integrated
one by covering four English skills; reading, writing, listening and
speaking. Basically, the evaluators proposed that the materials provided
various integrated grammar learning activities. Therefore, the materials
were able to facilitate the students to enrich grammar knowledge.
However, some of the evaluators disagreed that the designed activities
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
53
were enjoyable enough for the students and the diversity of the activities
had not been various. Furthermore, an evaluator argued that there was no
follow-up activity on each unit. The writer did not totally agree with the
respondents’ opinion which said that the activities were not enjoyable
since the materials contained games and role play. Moreover, some units
were provided with a listening-to-a-song activity which should be
enjoyable.
Meanwhile, the exercises presented at the end of each unit reflected
the CTL-based concept and were able to exercise learners’ grammar
knowledge. Nevertheless, some of the respondents stated that the exercises
level of difficulty was not suitable to the eleventh grade students of senior
high school. Some of the exercises were too easy. Agreeing to this the
writer tried to improve level of difficulty of some exercises by changing
the instructions.
e. Layout
The materials’ layout, including font, color and page design, was
interesting enough as being admitted by almost all respondents.
Nevertheless, out of questionnaire, it was recommended to the writer to
change materials’ cover design. It would be better if the cover was
designed using pictures which were related to grammar learning. The
writer agreed with the suggestion since the former cover was not
interesting enough and had nothing to do with grammar.
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
54
2. The syllabus evaluation
The evaluation data of research syllabus was collected through an
item of closed-form questionnaire and an item of open-form questionnaire.
The respondents’ opinions on the syllabus were divided into two parts, namely
the strengths and the weaknesses of the syllabus. Generally, the evaluators
agreed that the indicators of the designed materials in the syllabus were well
formulated and supported the attainment of the competence standard. The
evaluators stated that the syllabus had reflected the integrated learning since it
covered basic competencies of four English skills; reading, writing, listening
and speaking. It was also admitted by the respondents that the syllabus
reflected a contextual learning.
However, the evaluators mentioned three weaknesses of the
research syllabus. The first was the learning activities listed in the syllabus
were less varied. Therefore, they needed to be improved. An evaluator also
found that the learning activity had a lack of post-activity that it needed to be
completed. The last, a respondent mentioned that the syllabus should be
equipped with a column of sources. By reviewing the research syllabus, the
writer agreed that the syllabus needed to be improved as being recommended
by the evaluators since the activity sequence was monotonous, the activity was
not provided with post-activity and there was no source for each unit
materials.

55
C. Presentation of The Designed Materials
Answering the second question in the problem formulation, how a set of
supplementary instructional grammar materials using Contextual Teaching and
Learning for the 11th grade students of SMAN 1 Depok Yogyakarta looks like, the
writer presents the final version of the designed materials. It consists of eight units
with eight different topics and themes, namely
Unit 1 Topic : Simple Past Tense
Theme : Joining an extracurricular

PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
56
Each unit is divided into four parts; they are (1) Let’s Get Started, which
contains a leading activity, (2) Enjoy This, which contains leading activities which
are enjoyable, (3) Language Focus, which contains grammar discussion, and (4)
Try This, which contains grammar exercises. The full version of the designed
materials can be seen in Appendix I.

CHAPTER V
CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
This chapter consists of two parts. The first part contains the conclusions
of this study. The second part provides the suggestions for English teachers or
instructors who may apply the designed materials and other researchers who may
conduct a similar type of study.
A. Conclusions
The implementation of School-based Curriculum which focuses on the
four English skills learning made the presentation of grammar discussion in
English lessons limited. Nevertheless, the students’ enthusiasm in grammar
discussion in SMAN 1 Depok was relatively high with a high level of difficulty
because of limited grammar discussion in their main textbook. Therefore, this
study was aimed at designing a set of supplementary instructional grammar
materials using contextual teaching and learning for the eleventh grade students of
SMAN 1 Depok Yogyakarta.
To answer the first question in the problem formulation, the writer
proposed a research framework which was adopted from instructional design
models by Kemp and Yalden. This research framework was suited to the first five
steps of Educational Research and Development (R&D) cycle by Borg and Gall
(1963). There were 9 steps of research theoretical framework, namely (1)
conducting need survey, (2) reviewing the school syllabus, (3) stating competency
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
58
standard, selecting basic competencies, and listing the topics, (4) listing learning
objectives, (5) listing subject contents, (6) selecting learning activities, (7)
designing the materials, (8) evaluating the designed materials, and (9) revising the
designed materials.
The second question in the problem formulation was answered by
presenting the final version of the designed materials. This final version had
undergone some improvements based on the result of materials evaluation. The
product was a set of supplementary instructional grammar material consisting of
eight units with eight topics, they are:
Unit 1 : Simple Past Tense
Unit 2 : Past Continuous Tense
Unit 3 : Past Perfect Tense
Unit 4 : Simple Future Tense
Unit 5 : Modal Auxiliaries and Adverbs of Certainty
Unit 6 : Nouns and Noun Phrases
Unit 7 : Pronouns and Relative Pronouns
Unit 8 : Compound and Complex Sentences
Every unit in the materials is comprised of four parts which presents three
kinds of learning activity; pre-activity, whilst-activity, and post-activity. The four
parts are (1) Let’s Get Started; it provides lead-in activity and was involved in
pre-activity, (2) Enjoy This; it contains some enjoyable activity and was involved
in pre-activity, (3) Language Focus; it serves an explanation about particular
grammar topic and was included in whilst-activity, (4) Try This; it presents some
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
59
grammar exercises and provided whilst-activity and post-activity. Based on the
result of the materials’ evaluation, generally, the designed grammar materials are
acceptable. The whole final version of the designed materials can be seen in
Appendix I.
B. Suggestions
Having finished with the study, the writer would like to give some
suggestions for English teachers or instructors who may apply these materials and
for the other researchers who may conduct similar type of research.
For English teachers or instructors, the writer suggests providing
additional grammar materials with more exercises to enrich students’ grammar
knowledge. The writer also recommends applying Contextual Teaching and
Learning (CTL) approach in grammar learning to avoid boredom and to
encourage students to relate the learning with their real life environment.
For other researchers, it is suggested to apply the designed materials to
find out the effectiveness of the designed materials. Therefore, the researchers
could conduct necessary improvement on materials.

General Description
This part is aimed at explaining the background, the content, and the
purpose of designing a set of learning materials which is covered by the study titled
Designing A Set Of Supplementary Instructional Grammar Materials Using
Contextual Teaching And Learning For The Eleventh Grade Students Of SMAN 1
Depok Yogyakarta.
A. Background
The writer’s idea to design a set of supplementary grammar materials came
up because the prevailing curriculum, School-Based Curriculum, tends to ignore
grammar in English learning. Based on School-based Curriculum, grammar is not
to be learned independently, it should be inserted in English skills learning;
listening, reading, speaking, writing. Meanwhile, the main purpose of English
mastery is for communication. To communicate means to be able to deliver an
appropriate form of language in order to convey the intended meaning. Hence, the
need of a clear communication can not be separated from the appropriateness of
form.
After conducting observations to the eleventh grade students of SMAN 1
Depok, the writer became more convince to design a set of supplementary grammar
materials. The writer saw that the students had a high interest to English grammar,
but most of them hardly understood how to apply certain grammar form in
sentences. In addition, students’ main textbook provided limited grammar
discussion.
The supplementary grammar materials were designed using a Contextual
Teaching and Learning approach. This means that the materials designed is based
on the learners’ real life environment and experience. This approach is aimed at
gaining learners’ interest in learning grammar. Three features which show the CTL
application in the designed materials are: (1) the existence of group or pair
assignment in each unit, (2) the theme of each unit which is related to learners’ real
life, and (3) the presentation of an enjoyable activity part in each unit The
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
77
application of CTL in grammar materials is expected to be able to present
interesting grammar learning. Therefore, the learners will not come into boredom
when dealing with grammar and a meaningful learning will be attained.
B. Content
The designed materials contain 8 (eight) units and each unit consists of 4
(four) sections, namely: Let’s Get Started, Enjoy This, Language Focus, and Try
This. The first section, Let’s Get Started, provides a lead in to the topic discussed in
the unit. The second section, Enjoy This, contains enjoyable activities like playing
games and listening to songs. Language Focus provides an explanation of grammar
use and examples, while Try This presents some grammar exercises related to the
topic being learned.
The writer developed 8 (eight) units as follow:

examples and exercises.
2. To facilitate the students with enjoyable grammar materials in order to be
enthusiastic in learning grammar.
3. To encourage the students to correlate their grammar learning with their real
life situation in order to gain a meaningful learning.

The Legend of Mount Bromo
A long time ago, there lived a beautiful woman by the name Roro Anteng. She was well-known beautifull and attracted the attention of an evil giant. Because the evil giant possessed extraordinary magical powers, Roro Anteng did not dare to reject the giant’s advances when he proposed to her. Roro thought of a plan to get away from the marriage without offending the giant. In order to get her hand in marriage, the giant had to fufill her wishes. Roro then concocted a difficult request in hopes that the giant did not have the power to fufill it. She asked him to make her a sandy desert in between the mountains in one night and before the break of dawn. Unfortunately for her, the giant magically and swiftly began to work his powers and was near completing her wishes. The fast thinking Roro Anteng quickly thought of an idea to disrupt the completion, she made all sorts of noises that woke up the roosters. The roosters began to crow bringing dawn in. On hearing the rooster’s calls, which signalled the break of dawn, the giant was shocked for having failed his task. Being frustrated, he threw the coconut shell that he used to dig the desert, the shell fell to the ground beside Mount Bromo, forming what is now known as Mount Batok (coconut shell). The sandy plain was to form the Tengger caldera. The story continues with Roro Anteng falling in love with Joko Seger, a descendant of the great Majapahit Kingdom who led a reclusive life on the desolate mountain range. They got married and lived happily blessed with many children. Their children and their descendents formed the tribal community of the Tengger (taken from the names ‘Roro Anteng’ and Joko Seger”). This was the story of how the Tenggerese tribe came to be and how they lived the lands.

Goat Jumped into a Deep Hole Two men had walked through the woods for an hour. They came across a very big deep hole. "Wow...that looks deep." One replied, "Sure does... toss a few pebbles in there and we will see how deep this hole is." Then they picked up a few pebbles and threw them in and waited... no noise "Geeez. That is really deep... here… Throw one of these great big rocks down there. Those should make a noise." After that, they picked up a couple football-sized rocks and tossed them into the hole and waited... and waited but no noise they heard. Wow.. They were really impressed with how deep the hole it was. They looked at each other in amazement. One got a determined look on his face and said, "Hey...over here in the weeds, there's a railroad tie. Help me carry it over here. When we toss that sucker in this hole, it must make some noise." The two men had dragged the heavy tie over to the hole and had heaved it in. But, not a sound came from the hole. Suddenly, out of the nearby woods, a goat appeared, running like the wind. It rushed toward the two men, and then right passed them, running as fast as its legs would carry it. Suddenly it leaped in the air and into the hole. The goat disappeared into the deep hole. The two men were astonished with what they had just seen. How could a goat jump into the hole? Then, not long after that, out of the woods a farmer came. He seemed to seek something and asked to the two men, "Hey two guys... have you seen my goat out here?" Feeling amazing with what they had seen of a goat jumping to the hole, they answered straightly, "You bet we did! Craziest thing I've ever seen! A goat came running like crazy and just jumped into this hole!" The farmer thought a moment and said, "That could not have been my goat because my goat was chained to a railroad tie." Then he left the two men.

Watch Your Kids While Watching TV Television becomes one of the most important devices which takes place in almost houses. It can unite all members of the family as well as separate them. However, is it important to know what your kids are watching? The answer is, of course, absolutely "Yes" and that should be done by all parents. Television can expose things you have tried to protect the children from, especially violence, pornography, consumerism and so on. Recently, a study demonstrated that spending too much time on watching TV during the day or at bedtime often causes bed-time disruption, stress, and short sleep duration. Another research found that there is a significant relationship between the amount of time spent for watching television during adolescence and early adulthood, and the possibility of being aggressive. Meanwhile, many studies have identified a relationship between kids who watch TV a lot and being inactive and overweight. Considering some facts mentioning above, protect your children with the following tips: - Limit the television viewing to one-hours each day - Do not allow your children to have a TV set in their own bedrooms - Review the rating of TV shows which your children watch - Watch television with your children and discuss what is happening in the show
