Findings and Analysis
4.1
The Questionnaire
To examine the theories and concepts discussed
in the literature review,
practical data have been collected through questionnaires. The questionnaires are
attached as appendix-1 and appendix-2 at the end of this paper. To get a clear view, the
questionnaire for teachers has been prepared in two aspects,
qualitative and
quantitative. To get qualitative data the questions were open ended and for quantitative
they were close ended.
The table given below is showing the teache
rs‟ and students‟ opinions on
different views for teaching and learning English skills i.e. speaking and writing. The
analysis follows the Likert scale. Each of the questions has the following points against
each of the statements on the scale:
Sl Number

Points
1.
Strongly Agree
5
2.

3.
Neutral

Disagree

5.

If the highest percentage of participants mark 5 or 4
then it is considered that
majority of them have supported the statement. If the percentage is low, it means that
only few have supported the statement. On the other hand, if highest percentage of the
participants mark 2 or 1, it is considered that most of them have disagreed with the
statement.
If percentage is low, it means that only few havedisagreed with the
statement.

Data Analysis
The data collected by using the instruments from the samples described above
were hand tabulated and analyzed in terms of mean scores.
The mean is the sum of all
scores of all subjects in a group divided by the number of subjects, [X = ∑X/n] (Seliger
and Shohamy, 1989: 215).The mean of each of the items, therefore,
is the average
score for each item and it is the summation of all the scores divided by the number of
subjects.
The mean provides information on the average performances or behavior of a
group on given tasks, and helps the researcher obtain
insight by condensing large
amounts of data. The mean tells the researcher how the group as a whole performed
and that does provide more significant information. Seliger and Shohamy (1989: 216).
