The data are analyzed differently based on the certain principles. The following
are explanations of data analysis technique.
a. Analysis of Quantitative Data
The data of needs analysis are analyzed by using the descriptive statistical
analysis. Creswell (2012: 183) states that the descriptive statistic helps to
summarize the overall trends or tendencies in the data obtained, to provide an
understanding of how the scores varied, and to provide insight into where the
scores stand in comparison with others. The data of needs analysis are analyzed
systematically based on the students‘ answers which represent their needs. After
that, the result is analyzed by using frequency and percentage formula.
Meanwhile, the data of product validation and field testing product are
analyzed systematically by using the same technique. The data of both are
analyzed through central tendency. Vogt (in Creswell, 2012: 183-184) states that
measures of central tendency are summary numbers that represent a single value
in a distribution of score. The use of central tendency is based on theoretical
application commonly expressed as an average score (the mean), the middle of a
set score (the median), and the most frequently occurring score (the mode).
The data analysis of the product validation and the try-out in this study
select one measure which was mean. The mean is one of partial descriptive
statistic used to describe responses of all participants in items of instruments. The
mean score of the quality of IBLL model viewed from experts and practitioners
was appropriate (3.6), viewed from students‘ perception was very good (90%),
viewed from lecturers‘ perception was very good (91%). Meanwhile, the mean
score of students‘ achievement in writing descriptive texts was 74 (upper
intermediate level) and in exposition text was 77 (upper intermediate level). The
passing grade standard of the writing subject was 74. Based on the passing grade
standard, the students‘ grade standard achievement was achieved.
b. Analysis of Qualitative Data
The qualitative data obtained from interview and observation sheet are
analyzed by using descriptive-qualitative technique (Miles & Huberman, 2013:
10). The qualitative data of the study include students‘ skills in writing,
instructional goals, learning materials, text types, cultural topics, etc. These data
