RESEARCH METHOD
A.
Research Approach and Design
The design of this study is qualitative descriptive
research. Through qualitative descriptive research, this study
explained the students' interest in English Day Program In English
Language Education Department. Qualitative research is a general
term. It is a way of knowing in which the researcher gathers,
organizes, and interprets information obtained from humans using
his or her eyes and ears as filters.
25
It means the researcher is the
one in charge of observing, gathering, and analyzing the context by
her/himself by considering different factors that could bias the
implementation of the investigation.
B.
Subject of The Research
The population of this study was conducted in UIN
Sunan Ampel Surabaya. The subject was the students of English
Language Education Department (ELED) and Students association
of English
Language Education Department (ELED). The
researcher took both of them randomly from the 3
rd
until the 7
th
semester. The researcher used simple random sampling as the
technique. According to Sugiyono, Simple Random Sampling is a
sampling technique from members of the population that is done
randomly without regard to strata that exist in that population.
26
Consequently, every population has the same chance to be chosen
to be a sample in this research. Besides, the researcher chose two
types of the subject because both of them have a different
emotional feeling when involved in the English Day Program.
