Data Collection

Data Analysis

The present classroom action study makes use of classroom action research design. Thus, this classroom action study is concerned with teaching Grammar through 3Ps Method by using two kind of tests, that are initial refection or pre-test and reflection or post-test.

Research Design

The subject of this research are the eighth year students of SMPK Santo Thomas Aquino in academic year 2010/2011. There are about 28 – 30 students each class. The researcher will belong to class VIII A that consist of 28 students, with 15 females and 13 males.

Subject of The Study

• Teaching Learning Scenario Teacher scenario will prepared in order to have description to what action to be conducted in the classroom.

∑ X

M = N

Data Analysis

The computing formula above was adopted from Heaton (2003:3). The students’ achievement will calculated into the following criteria.

• Good : those students who are able to answer the test items between 70% - 79% correctly.

• Fair : those students who are able to answer the test items between 60% - 69% correctly.

• Poor : those students who are able to answer the test items between 50% - 59% correctly.
