CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

A.The Background of Research

For many years, English has been considered as an international language.

Almost all the people from many different countries around the world use it to

communicate. The area of English has always become a special interest. It’s because of the importance of English in any scope of our lives. Julian Edge

expresses

Since British trade, followed by colonial and imperial expansion, English spread around the world. Then the military and economic dominance of the United States of America has confirmed English as the international language of present historical period. As a consequence, English serves for many people as a bridge into the worlds of higher education, science, international trade, politics, tourism, or any other venture which interest them. At the same time, English serve for many times many more people as a barrier between themselves and those some fields of interest. Many people in their own countries will not be able to become doctors, for example if they cannot learn enough English.1

Today, the first international language is English, and in this globalization

era, millions of people want to improve their English speaking or to ensure that

their children achieve good English speaking. It’s because English speaking is one of the ways to communicate.

1

(17)

Communication is an essential need for human being. Language as a

means of communication has an important role to reveal an intention to someone

else. Since language is a means of communication, it is not enough for students to

learn words, phrases and grammatical features if they want to produce language in

their daily communication or to interact with others in English.

Therefore, the most important thing that should be noticed in teaching

speaking is how to activate all of language elements, such as vocabulary,

grammar, and pronunciation, which students have possessed to communicate,

since the main function of language is a means of communication. It means that

the goal for students learning English speaking is that they are able to use

language to communicate effectively and appropriately for all life’s requirements,

both social and academic. 2 The students have to be able to express their thoughts, ideas, and feelings orally in English without thinking for a long time before saying

what they wish to say.

There are four skills in teaching and learning a language: listening,

speaking, reading, and writing, but out of the four skills, speaking seems

intuitively the most important3. Jack C. Richards and Willy A. Renandya also wrote in their book that speaking is one of the central elements of communication.

In EFL (English as a Foreign Language) teaching, it is an aspect that needs special

attention and instruction.4

Based on the writer’s observation at the VII grade of 251 State Junior High School, during the Integrated Pre Servise Teaching Profession

Practice-Praktik Propesi Keguruan Terpadu (PPKT) the writer found that the students are

poor in English speaking skill. When they speak English, they take so much time

thinking what they are going to say, some of them did not say anything. Many

factors can cause the problem of the students’ speaking skills, among others the

students’ interest, the material, the media, and technique in teaching English. In

(18)

SMPN 251 the teacher teaches the students traditionally. The teacher asks the

students to perform that dialogue in front of class without asking them to develop

a more communicative dialogue using their own way. So, they only memorize the

dialogue and most of the students do not know how to use some expressions

taught by their teacher in a real communication. This strategy cannot help the

students to use language as means of communication.

The writer considers that it is necessary to find out an alternative way to

create suitable and interesting techniques to students’ condition. They need any practices to assist them in developing their speaking ability. Many techniques can

be applied including role play because it encourages the students to be actively

participating in teaching learning process. This techique also gives students an

opportunity to practice communicating in different social contexts and in different

social roles. Gillian Porter Ladousse states that:

A very wide variety of experience can be brought into the classroom through role play. The range of function and structures, and the areas of vocabulary that can be introduced, go far beyond the limits of other pair or group activities, such as conversation, communication games, or humanistic exercises. Through role play we can train the students in speaking skills in any situation. 5

Moreover, as Penny Ur emphasizes “role play is used to refer to all sort of activities where learners imagine themselves in a situation outside the

classroom”6

. It is expected that role play can help some shy students to be active

and enjoy their roles acting in speaking English.

Based on the statement above, the writer assumed that role play seem to be

good alternative way for teaching English in SMPN 251. Because this technique

can make students active in teaching learning process, it also allows students to be

creative and to put themselves in another person’s place for a while. In addition this technique gives students opportunity to speak in the target language for an

4

extended period of time and students might naturally produce more speech than

they would otherwise.

So, in presenting this paper the writer decided to apply role play in

teaching speaking and want to measure the success of using role play in the

speaking class. Therefore the writer would like to takes a research under the title:

Improving Students’ Speaking Ability by Using Role Play” (Classroom

Action Research at First Grade of SMPN 251 Jakarta)”.

B.The Limitation and formulation of the Problems

The problem that will be discussed is limited only on the using of role play

activity to develop the students’ speaking ability in giving interpersonal response at VII grade students of SMPN 251 Jakarta-Timur in the 2010/2011 academic

year.

Based on limitation of problem mentioned above, the problem of the

research can be formulated as follows; “can role play develop students’ speaking ability?”

C.The Objective of Research

This Research is conducted in order to develop students’ speaking ability at first grade students of SMPN 251 Jakarta-Timur through role play activities.

D.The Significance of Research

The results of this research is expected to be useful for the English teacher

of SMPN 251 Jakarta Timur especially in teaching speaking teacher can manage

classroom activities communicatively by using role play activities. For students

themselves, it can motivate them to try to speak English as often as possible, so

that they can improve their ability in speaking skill.

E.The Method of Research

This research will be done by using Classroom Action Research method.

(20)

conducted by the teachers to develop their teaching skill.7 In addition Wijaya Kusumah stated that classroom action research is a research which is conducted

by the teachers in their class with three ways, first is planning, second is acting,

and third is reflecting which has the aim to develop teachers’ teaching skill and to improve students’ score. 8

It can be seen that Classroom Action Research is to

solve teachers’ problem in learning.

CHAPTER II

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

A. SPEAKING

1. The understanding of speaking

Speaking is significant to an individual’s living processes and experiences

as are the ability of seeing and walking. Speaking is also the most natural way to

communicate. Without speaking, people must remain in almost total isolation

from any kind of society. For most people, the ability to speak a language is the

same with knowing a language since the speech is the most basic means of human

communication. When we speak, a great deal more than just mouth is involved

such as nose, pharynx, epiglottis, trachea, lungs and more. But, acording to Sandra

Cornbleet and Ronald Carter, speaking is not just making sound. Birds, animals,

babies make sound and though it may be communication of sorts, it is not

speaking.1

The word speaking has many different meanings on linguistics’ views.

Acording to Jo McDonough and Christopher Shaw speaking is not the oral

production of written languge, but includes learners in the mastery of a wide range

sub skill which added together, then it supports speaking skill.2 In addition, speaking is not produced without some combination of language skill, but it must

be included a number of skills. So, mastering speaking is gathering skill in

1

Sandra Cornbleet and Ronald Carter , The Language of Speech and Writing, (London:Routledge Publisher, 2001), p.17

2

(22)

thought because of including some input skills in it. As the result, the mouth is

delivering those skills orally.

In addition, Oxford Advance Dictionary states that "speaking is to make

use of language in an ordinary, not singing, to state view, wishes etc or an act of

spokesman”.3

Another expert states that speaking is “the process of building and sharing meaning through the use of verbal and non-verbal symbols, in a variety of

social creature we have a need to make meaning of our surroundings. We have a

need to express our thoughts, opinions, or feelings in order to be accepted in

social life. Speaking does not only make sound by the speech organs but ideas and

emotions.

2. The functions of speaking

Several language experts have attempted to categorize the functions of

speaking in human interaction. According to Brown and Yule, as quoted by Jack

C. Richards, “The functions of speaking are classified into three; talk as interaction, talk as transaction and talk as performance. Each of these speech

activities is quite distinct in term of form and function and requires different

teaching approaches”5

. Below are the explanations of the functions of speaking:

a. Talk as Interaction

Being able to interact in a language is essential. In fact, much of our daily

communication remains interactional. This refers to what we normally mean by

“conversation”. The primary intention in talk as interaction is to maintain social relationship.

Meanwhile, talk as interaction has several main features as follows:

 Has a primarily social function  Reflects role relationships  Reflects speaker’s identity

 May be formal or casual

 Uses conversational conventions  Reflects degrees of politeness  Employs many generic words  Uses conversational register

Some of the skills (involved in using talk as interaction) are:

 Opening and closing conversation  Choosing topics

 Making small-talk

 Recounting personal incidents and experiences  Turn-taking

 Using adjacency pairs  Interrupting

 Reacting to others6

Mastering the art of talk as interaction is difficult and may not be a priority

for all learners. In talk as interaction, the ability to speak in natural way is

required in order to create a good communication. That is why some students

sometimes avoid this kind of situation because they often lose for words and feel

6

(24)

difficulty in presenting a good image of themselves. This can be a disadvantage

for some learners where the ability to use talk as interaction can be important.

b. Talk as Transaction

This type of talk or speaking refers to situations where the focus is on what

is said or done. The message is the central focus here and making oneself

understood clearly and accurately, rather than the participants and how they

interact socially with each other7. In transaction, talk is associated with other activities. For example, student may be engaged in hand-on activities (e.g. in

language lesson) to explore concept associated with tenses and derivations. Anne

Burns, as cited in Jack C. Richards, distinguishes talk as transaction into two

different types. One is a situation where the focus is on giving and receiving

information and where the participants focus primarily on what is said or

achieved. Accuracy may not be a priority as long as information is successfully

communicated or understood. The second type is transactions which focus on

obtaining goods or services, such as checking into a hotel8. In this type of spoken language, students and teachers usually focus on meaning or on talking their way

to understanding.

Meanwhile, talk as transaction has several main features as follows:

 It has a primarily information focus

 The main focus is the message and not the participants

 Participants employ communication strategies to make themselves understood  There may be frequent questions, repetitions, and comprehension checks  There may be negotiation and digression

 Linguistic accuracy is not always important

Some of the skills involved in using talk for transactions are :

 explaining a need or intention  describing something

(25)

10

 Asking questioning  Confirming information  Justifying an opinion  Making suggestions  Clarifying understanding  Making comparisons9

Compared with talk as interaction, talk as transaction is easier for some

student because it only focuses on messages delivered to the others. Also, talk as

interaction is more easily planned since current communicative materials are a

rich resource of group activities, information-gap activities and role plays. It can

provide a source for practicing how to use talk fro sharing and obtaining

information as well as for carrying out the real-world transactions.

c. Talk as Performance

This refers to public talk or public speaking, that is, talk which transmits

information before an audience such as morning talks, public announcements, and

speeches. Talk as performance tends to be in the form of monolog rather than

dialog. Often follows a recognizable format and is closer to written language than

conversational language. Similarly it is often evaluated according to its

effectiveness or impact on the listener, something which is unlikely to happen

with talk as interaction or transaction. Examples of talk as performance are giving

a class report about a school trip, conducting a class debate, making a sales

presentation, and giving a lecture.

The main features of talk as performance are:

 There is a focus on both message and audience  It reflects organization and sequencing

 Form and accuracy is important

 Language is more like written language

9

(26)

 It is often monologists

Some of the skills involved in using talk as performance are:

 Using an appropriate format

 Presenting information in an appropriate sequence  Maintaining audience engagement

 Using correct pronunciation and grammar  Creating an effect on the audience

 Using appropriate vocabulary

 Using appropriate opening and closing10

Initially talk as performance needs to be prepared in much the same way

as written text, and many techniques teaching strategy used to make

understanding of written text. Therefore, this kind of talk requires a different

teaching strategy.

3. Classroom Speaking Activities

To help students develop communicative efficiency in speaking, there are

some activities used in the classroom to promote the development of speaking

skills in our learners. The discussions below centers on the major types of

speaking activities that can be implemented as follows11 : a. Discussion

Discussion is probably the most commonly used in the speaking skills

classroom activity. It is a common fact that discussion really useful activity for the

teacher in order to activate and involve student in classroom teaching. Typically,

student are introduced to a topic via reading, listening passage, or a video tape and

are then asked to get into pairs or groups to discuss a related topic in order to

come up with a solution, a response, or the like. Normally, people need time to

assemble their thought before any discussion and that is something needs to

10

11

(27)

12

consider. So, Teacher must take care in planning and setting up a discussion

activity.

b. Speeches

Another common activity in the oral skills class is the prepared speech.

Topics for speeches will vary depending on the level of the students and the focus

of the class, but in any case, students should be given some leeway in determining

the content of their talks. In order words, the teacher can provide the structure for

the speech-its theoretical genre and its time restrictions. For example asking

students to “tell us about an unforgettable experience you had”. Allow them to

talk about something that is personally meaningful while at the same time

encourages narration and description. Speeches can be frightening for the speaker

and after while boring for the listeners, so it is a good idea to assign the listeners

some responsibilities during the speeches. It is an excellent time to require peer

evaluation of classmate’s speech.

c. Role plays

Role paly is activity in which students are assigned roles and improvise a

scene or exchange based on given information or clues and its one way of getting

student to speak in different social context and to assume varied social roles is to

use role-play activities in the classroom. Role plays can be performed from

prepared scripts, created from a set of prompt and expression or written using and

consolidation knowledge gained from instruction or discussion of the speech act

and its variations prior to the role plays themselves.

d. Conversations

One of the recent trends in oral skills pedagogy is the emphasis on having

students analyze and evaluate the language that they or others produce. In

otherword, it is not adequate to have students produce lots of language; they must

become more metalinguistically aware of many features of language in order to

become competent speakers and interlocutors in English. One speaking activity

which is particularly suited to this kind of analysis is conversation, the most

(28)

e. Information-gap activities

This refers to the fact that in real communication, people normally

com-municate in order to get information they do not possess. In this activity, each

student has different information and they need to obtain information from each

other in order to finish a task. They must use target language to accomplish it.12

B. Role Play

1. The understanding of Role Play

Role play is a classroom activity which gives the student the opurtunity to

practise the language, the aspects of role behaviour, and the actual roles he may

need outside the classroom.13

In A Course in Language Teaching, Penny Ur defines role play as, “all

sorts of activities where learners imagine themselves in a situation outside the

classroom, sometimes playing the role of someone other than themeselves, and

using langauage appropriate to this new context”.14

Thus, leaners would be

placed in a variety of experience where they play role as themeselves or play the

role of someone else and they should use language that appropriate the situation

and social context which they are playing. For example leaner get together, as

themeselves, to organize a reunion of their class for the next 20 years. Another

example, learners play a role of other people, to hold a formal meeting in an office

where there are five leaners. One of them play as director, a leaner as secretary,

two leaners are as manager, and another is as supervisor. Langauage expressions

of each player should appropriate to their role for example the way of director

talks to manager will be different with the way of the manager talks to the

director.

Gillian Porter Ladousse states his opinion about the definition of role play.

At firts, he defines it by separating the words of role and play. „role’ they play a

part (either their own or somebody else’s) in specific situation. „Play’ means that

is taken on in a safe environment in which students are as an inventive and playful

as possible. A group of students craying out a successful role play in a classroom

has musch in common with a group of children playing schol, doctors and nurse,

or star wars. Both are unselfconsciously creating their own reality and, by doing

so, are experimenting with their knowledge of the real world and developing their

ability to interact with other people. Moreover, he states about role play as a

technique in English teaching.

Role play is one of a whole gamut of communicative techniques which develops fluency in language students, which promotes interaction in the classroom and which increases motivation. Not only in peer learning encouraged by it, but also the sharing between teacher and students of the responsibility for the learning process. Role play is perhaps the most flexible technique in the range, and teaches who have it at their finger-tips are able to meet an infinite variety of needs with suitable and effective role play exercise.15

From the statement above, the writer concludes that role play is a

technique in English teaching which brings the students to real communication in

order to develop the students’ fluency. The situations and the roles are made by the teacher as a real life situation so the students have the opurtunity to practise

there language that they need outside the classroom.

2. The Objective of Role Play

The objective of role play is to put the students into a realistic

communication situation to: sharpen their listening comprehension skills, bring

them in contact new language, and discover areas where they need additional

practice.16

15

Gillian Porter Ladousse, Role Play: Resources Books for Teacher Series, (New York: Oxford University Press, 1995), p. 5-7

16

(30)

In addition Jack C. Richard states that the objective of the role play is to

simulate a conversation situation in which students might find themselves and

give them an opportunity to practice and develop their communication skills.17 Thus, it can be synthesized that the objective of role play is to develop

communication skill by putting the students into communication situation. The

realistic communication situation gives the students new experience in using the

language they have learned, and the experience is good for remembering what

they have learned.

Therefore the writer concludes that the objective of role play is

communication and it is similar to the objective of teaching speaking, so it means

role play can be applied in teaching speaking and it can help students in

improving speaking skill.

3. The advantages of role play

There are some advantages teaching speaking by using role play in the

class, they are:18

a. With role play a very wide variety of experience can be brought into the

classroom and we can train our students in speaking skill in any situations

through role play.

b. Role play puts students in situation in which they are required to use and

develop those phatic forms of language which are so necessary in oiling the

works of social relationships, but which are so often neglected by our

language teaching syllabuses.

c. Some people are learning English to prepare for specific roles in their lives. It

is helpful for these students to have tried out and experimented with the

language they will require in the friendly and safe environment of a

classroom.

16

d. Role play helps many shy students by providing them with a mask.

e. Perhaps the most important reason for using role play is that it is fun.

Moreover, Adrian Doff states

role play gives students a chance to use the language they have practiced in a more creative way- students improvise; it increases motivation because the chance to imagine different situations adds interest to a lesson; it encourages students to use natural expressions and intonation, as well as gestures because they are acting out a situation, and by doing children even teenagers and adults often imagine themselves in deferent situation and roles when they play games.”19

In conclusion, role play can encourage students to create their performance

as well as possible due to the freedom given to them to make up a

dialogue/conversation by themselves. Therefore, most students are motivated to

share and express their ideas during the activity.

4. The disadvantages of role play

In spite of the fact that role playing gives some advantages, it is also

shows disadvantages. They are:20

a. Organization, few teachers operate in ideal circumstance. The majority work

in classrooms which are too small, and with classes which are, numerically,

too large. Similarly, the noise level produced by a class of forty, divided into

eight role play groups in a small classroom, may be so high as to make

concentration impossible.

b. Time, if the time taken for preparation and follow-up work is included, then

role play will take up a lot of classroom time.

In conclusion, teaching speaking by using role play takes up a lot of

classroom time because the students need for preparation before their play a role.

It’s also need an extra room, because if the room is too small the students can’t move in play their role, and it’s can make a noisy in the room, so it’s very difficult

for the students to concentrate.

(32)

5. The Type of Role Play Technique

In case of role play activities, according to Donn Byrne, role play can be

grouped into two types, scripted and unscripted role play. In details, those types of

role play activities described as follows:

a. Scripted Role Play

This type involves interpreting either the textbook dialogue or

reading text in the form of speech. The main function of the text after all is

to convey the meaning of language items in a memorably way.

b. Unscripted Role Play

In contrast to scripted role play, the situations of unscripted role

play do not depend on textbooks. It is known as a free role play or

improvisation. The students themselves have to decide what language to

use and how the conversation should develop. In order to do this activity,

good preparation from teacher and students is really necessary.21

C. Teaching Speaking by using role play

As what the writer writes above, role play can be classified into two;

scripted role play and unscripted role play. So, in applying this technique, there

are two ways that can be used.

1. Scripted role play

Scripted role play is a role play which is based on the dialogue.

Example of the dialogue:

Angela : Good morning. I want to send a letter to Singapore. Clerk : Yes, do you want to send it by air mail or ordinary mail?

Angela : I think I’ll send it air mail. I want it to get there quickly. How

much does it cost?

Clerk : To Singapore? That will be 30 pence, pleas. Angela : (give the clerk 50 pence) Here you are.

Clerk : Here’s your stamp, and here’s 20 pence change. Angela : Thank you. Where is the post box?

Clerk : You want the air mail box. It’s over there, by the door.

21

(33)

18

To demonstrate a role play activity based on the dialogue, the procedures

given by Adrian Doff is as follows:

1) The teacher guides the role play by writing these prompts:(where? / air

mail / how much? / post box? / thanks). Talk as you write to show what the

prompts mean.

2) If necessary, go through the prompts one by one, and get students to give

sentences or question for each one.

3) Call two students to the front: one play the role as Angela and the other

one is the post office clerk. They should improvise the conversation using

the prompts to help them. Point out that the conversation should be similar

to the one in the textbook, but not exactly the same; the conversation can

be shorter than the presentation dialogue. It should just cover the main

points indicated by the prompts.

4) Call out a few other pairs of students in turn, and ask them to have other

conversation based on the prompts.22 He/she is at the police station.

The other student is the police officer, and asks for details.

To demonstrate a role play activity based on the situation, the procedures

the procedures given by Adrian Doff is as follows:

1) The teacher could prepare the whole class, by:

22

(34)

a) Discussing what the speakers might say (e.g. the police officer would

asks the students how he or she lost the bag).

b) Writing prompt on the board to guide the role play, and any key

vocabulary.

2) The teacher could divide the class into pairs, and:

a) Let them discuss together what they may say.

b) Let them all try out the role play privately, before calling on one or two

pairs to act out in front of the class.23

The above procedures do not mean an exact to be used. It is flexible;

teacher can create or develop procedures which is appropriate and suitable with

his/her own class.

D. Classroom Action Research

1. The understanding of Classroom Action Research

According to McNiff, Classroom Action Research is a reflective research

which conducted by the teachers to develop their teaching skill.24 It means that the teachers can use Classroom Action Research as a method to develop their

teaching skill. In addition Wijaya Kusumah stated that classroom action research

is a research which conducted by the teachers in their class with three ways, first

is planning, second is acting, and third is reflecting which has the aim to develop

teachers’ teaching skill and to improve students’ score. 25

It can be seen that

Classroom Action Research is not only to develop teaching skill for the teacher

but also to improve students’ score and solve their problem in learning.

2. Design of Action Research

According to Wijaya Kusuma that dsign of Classroom Action Research is

divided into six models, there are:

24

Wijaya Kusumah and Dedi Dwitagama, Mengenal Penelitian Tindakan Kelas, (Jakarta Barat: PT. Indeks, 2009), p. 8.

25

(35)

20

reference from the other models, specifically for classroom action research. Kurt

Lewin introduced classroom action research for the first time. The basic

conceptual of classroom action research includes four components:

1. Planning

Planning is a step to prepare the classroom instructional strategy to be

developed in the study to solve the instructional problems. The instructional

strategy has been selected based on the belief that the strategy can theoretically

solve the problems. It is this strategy that becomes the focus of the study, to be

prepared, to be tried out, to be revised, to be tried again until it proves effective

to solve the problems.

2. Acting

Acting is the second step after the planning step to implement the instructional

strategy that has been planned. At this stage, the researcher has mastered the

instructional scenario before starting the implementation in class. The

researcher at this stage is not in the process of learning how to implement the

plan, nor in the process of improving the quality of teachers’ performance, but

in the process of actually trying out the strategy to test how much the strategy

can solve the classroom problems. The researcher is recommended to

collaborate with one or two other teachers of the same subjects. The

collaborators observe the implementation of the plan to see how much the

strategy can solve the classroom problems.

26

(36)

3. Observing

Observing is the process of collecting data indicating the success of the

strategy in solving the classroom problems. The focus of the observation is on

the data related to the criteria of success that have been decided. The question

that becomes the concern in the observing process is “How well does the

strategy solve the problems?” not other questions, like “How well does the teacher teach?” or “How well is the strategy implemented by the researcher?

These last two questions are not the questions for Classroom Action Research

but appropriate for observers observing students who are learning how to teach,

like in the practice teaching program.

4. Reflecting

Reflection is the process of analyzing data to determine how far the data

collected have shown the success of the strategy in solving the problem.

Reflection also shows what factors support the success of the strategy or what

other problems may occur during the implementation process.

The connection of four components above can describe as below:

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

A. Time and Place of Research

The writer held the research at VII Grade of SMPN 251, which is located

on Jl. Gongseng Raya RT 010 RW 001 Kelurahan Cijantung, Kecamatan Pasar

Rebo, Jakarta Timur. The writer did the Action Research on 17 January 2011 up

to 21 February 2011.

B. Subject of Research

The Subject of the research is VII grade students of SMPN 251 Jakarta in

the 2010/2011 Academic Year. There are 38 students in VII grade.

C. Role of the Researcher in Classroom Action Research

The role of researcher in Classroom Action Research is as the English

Teacher at seventh grade of SMPN 251 and she also makes lesson plan, pre-test,

and post-test, then she collects and analyzes the data, and then she reports the

results of research. In doing Classroom Action Research she is colaborated with

the real English teacher of SMPN 251 (Ibu. Nurminda S.Pd) who becomes the

(38)

D. The Research Design

The Classroom Action Research procedure used in this research is Kurt

Lewin’s design. It consists of two cycles in which each cycle contains four

phases; planning, acting, observing, and reflecting.

Based on the Kurt Lewin’s action research design above, the writer would like to

describe further concerning the implementation of Classroom Action research

(CAR) in the cycle one and cycle two as following:

Figure 3.2

The phases of Classroom Action Research modified by the writer

CYCLE 1

CYCLE 2

Planning

After interviewing the writer, observing the class, and holding the pretest, then the teacher & the writer collaborate to prepare the instruments such as: lesson plan, observational guidelines, and the posttest

Acting

The writer implements the lesson plan that has been made; that is teaching speaking in giving interpersonal response by using role play

Observing

The teacher observes the teaching learning process in the classroom. It includes the writer’s performance, the class situation, and the students’ response. Meanwhile, at last of cycle 1 the students are given the posttest 1. Furthermore, the teacher computes the students’ speaking score result to find if there some students’ improvement scores from the pretest or not. Reflecting

The teacher and the writer discuss about the result of the implementation role play in the action. Then, they prepare the new lesson plan for the next cycle and for prepare some instruments such as: the new lesson plan (with some modifications of role play strategy), observational guidelines, and the posttest

Reflecting

The teacher and the writer discuss about the result of the implementation of the modified action. If the Classroom Action Research target could not be achieved plan; that is teaching speaking ingiving interpersonal response by using role play.

Observing

(40)

E. The Classroom Action Research Procedures

The Classroom Action Research using Kurt Lewin’s design consists of

four phases within one cycle. Those are planning, acting, observing, and

reflecting. After accomplishing the first cycle, it will be probably found a new

problem or the previous unfinished problems yet. Therefore, it is necessary to

continue to the second cycle in line with the same concept of the first cycle.

To make clear what happens in every phase. Here are the explanations:

1. Planning

In this phase, the writer design a lesson plan (see appendix 11) from the

syllabus which is consulted with English teacher, creating the topics that are

appropriate with the matter, Preparing materials that will be used at the cycle. The

writer also makes the evaluation form to know about students’ achievements at

the end of this cycle.

2. Action

In this phase, the writer and observer collaborates to carry out the planned

action . The writer gives explanation how plays a role, and give an example from

it. The writer also gives some related vocabulary items needed when students are

do a role play activity. Then, the writer gives a role card that tells the students

who he is, something of his background, what his opinions about a given subject

are, and possibly suggests a course of action that he should try and carry out, and

asks the students to practice in pairs or in a group. (see page 36-43 for more

detail).

3. Observation

In this phase, the observer (the real teacher SMPN 251) observes the

students’ responses, participations, and achievements which are found during the teaching and learning process. Sometimes, the observer asks some students’ opinions about the process of teaching and learning using role play activity. The

observer also takes the observation notes to write the real situation when the

(41)

26

4. Reflection

In this phase, the writer and the observer identifies the problems that are

found by seeing the result of the observation which should be solved. Then, those

are used to make plan for further cycle and correct its weaknesses.

F. The Technique of Collecting Data

In completing the data, the writer uses qualitative data and quantitative

data, qualitative data consists of observation, interview and quesionnarie,

quantitative data consists of pre-test and post test. 1

1. Observation

In this case, the writer uses the unstructured observation to get the

information about the real condition in teaching learning activities. The

writer make the observation notes about situation in the class while

teaching learning process occurred, teacher’s performance in teaching

speaking, and students’ speaking skills, such as; pronunciation, vocabulary,grammar and their braveries in speaking lesson. (for more

detail see appendix 8)

2. Interview

Before implementing Classroom Action Research, the writer

interview the teacher about students’ difficulties in speaking skill,

students’ condition in speaking activity, and the kinds of strategies usually

adopted by the teacher in teaching speaking. The writer also carried the

interview after accomplishing Classroom Action Research to know the

teacher’s response toward the idea of role play technique (see appendix 7).

3. Questionnaire

The structured questionnaire was given to the students of VII.2 grade of SMPN 251 Cijantungin order to know their responds toward the

process of teaching and learning speaking by using role play technique and

also about their motivations and problems in learning speaking before and

after they were taught using role play technique (see appendix 9).

1

(42)

4. Test

The writer uses oral test for the students (see appendix 3). The test

used in this study is pre-test and post-test. The pre-test is done before

students need to do the test in groups.

The students’ test will be scored by using the rating scores of oral

test by David P. Harris as followed2

Table 3.1

The Rating Score of Oral Test

Rated qualities Points Behavioral statments

Pronunciation 5 Has few tarce of foreign accent.

4 Always intelligible, though one is conscious of a definite accent

3 Pronunciation problems necessitate

concentrated listening and occasionally lead to misunderstanding.

2 Very hard to understand because of

pronunciation problems. Must frequently be asked to repeat.

1 Pronunciation problems so severe as to make speech virtually unintelligible.

Grammar

5 Makes few (any) noticeable errors of grammar or word order.

4 Occasionally makes grammatical and or word order errors which do not, however, obscure meaning.

3 Makes frequent errors of grammar and word order which occasionally obscure meaning 2 Grammar and word order errors make

comprehension d must often rephrase sentences

and or restricts himself to basic patterns. 1 Errors in grammar and word order so severe as

to make speech virtually unintelligible.

Vocabulary

5 Use of vocabulary and idioms is virtually that of a native speaker.

4 Sometimes use inappropriate terms and or must rephrase ideas because of lexical inadequacies. 3 Frequently uses the wrong words; conversation

somewhat limited because of inadequate vocabulary.

2 Misuse of words and very limited vocabulary make comprehension quite difficult

1 Vocabulary limitations so extreme as to make conversation virtually impossible.

Fluency

5 Speech as fluent and effortless as that of a native speaker

4 Speed of speech seems to be slightly affected by language problems

3 Speed and fluency are rather strongly affected by language problems.

2 Usually hesitant; often forced into silence by language problem.

1 Speech is so halting and fragmentary as to make conversation virtually impossible

Comprehension

5 Appears to understand everything without difficulty.

4 Understands nearly everything at normal speed, although occasional repetition may be

necessary.

3 Understands most of what is said at slower-than normal speed with repetitions.

2 Has great difficulty following what is said. Can

comprehend only “social conversation” spoken

slowly and with frequent repetitions. 1 Cannot be said to understand even simple

conversational English.

Note: maximum sore = 25

Sore = the result of score x 100

(44)

G. Technique of Data Analysis

The collected data found in this research are analyzed qualitatively and

quantitatively. It means that all the data gathered from the observations during

teaching learning process, questionnaire, and interview before and after classroom

action research are analyzed qualitatively. While the data obtained from tests

(pre-test and post-(pre-test) are Analyzed descriptive quantitatively (percentage).

In completing the numerical data, the writer tries to get the average of

students’ speaking score within before the the implementation and every cycle in

order to know how well the role play technique in the classroom.

It is the formula;3

X

=

X : mean N : number of students

x : individual score

Then, the writer tries to get the class percentages which pass the the target

score of the minimal mastery level criterion-Kriteria Ketuntasan Minimal (KKM).

The KKM that must be attained considering speaking subject is 65 (sixty-five)

which is adapted from the school agreement (SMPN 251 Jakarta). It is the

formula:4

F

P = X 100% N

P : the class percentage

F : total percentage score

N : number of students

3

Sudjana, Metoda Statistika, (Bandung: PT. Tarsito, 2002), p. 67.

4

(45)

30

The last, the writer analyzes the students’ speaking score from pre-test up to post-test. It used to know whether students improve their score or not. She uses the

formula:

y1 – y P : percentage of students’ improvement

P = ─── X 100% y : pre-test result

Y y1 : post-test 1

H. Criteria of the Action Success

Classroom Action Research (CAR) is able to be called successful if it can

exceed the criteria which has been determined. In this study the research will

succeed when there is 75% of students could pass the assessment score ≥ 65 based on the minimal mastery level criterion-Kriteria Ketuntasan Minimal (KKM)

which is adapted from the school agreement (SMPN 251).

In addition, the success of the action is not only measured with the

achievement students’ speaking score, but also the role play technique can

motivate the students and they become more actively in learning process. If the

criterion of the action success achieved, it means that the next action of the

Classroom Action Research (CAR) would be stopped, but if this condition has not

(46)

31 CHAPTER IV

RESEARCH FINDINGS

A. The Result of Pre Implementation of the Action

1. The Result of Interview

The interview was held on Thursday, January 13th 2010 started at 15.10 and finished at 16.00. The writer asked to the teacher some

questions which were divided into three categories of question, they are:

the general condition of class, the difficulty in speaking skill, and the

strategy used by the teacher in teaching speaking.

First category discussed the general condition of class especially in

speaking class. The teacher said that the most of students did not like

studying English, because it is difficult lesson and they sometimes gained

low competence in English. The teacher also said that speaking is the

most difficult skill to be learned in VII.2 grade, because most of them

were hardly to pass the target score of the minimal mastery level criterion

(KKM).

Second category is the difficulty in speaking skill. The teacher said

that the students’ difficulties in speaking lied on pronouncing the word or sentence, self confidence, and organizing the word into a sentence, and

this causedby less in practice English speaking.

The last category is the strategy used by the teacher in teaching

English speaking. The teacher said that she has never used role play in

(47)

32

dialogue to the students, then she reads the dialogue, while the students

repeat it together, and then she give the meaning of the dialogue.

2. The Result of Observation

This observation was conducted in order to know the teaching

learning process directly before implementing the Classroom Action

Research (CAR). Based on the observation notes conducted on Monday,

10th January 2011 at 12.30, it was known that in teaching speaking at the VII-2 grade students of SMPN 251 in the 2010/2011 academic year, the

teacher used dialogue-based learning technique, in which she gave

students dialogue and asked students to read the dialogue and then

perform in the front of the class in pair. In this case, students only read a

dialogue, give it meaning and then perform with their partner. They have

never told the usage of expressions they are practicing. Furthermore,

students have never been given chances to expose their ability to speak

and to develop a more communicative conversation using their own way.

(see appendix 8 for more detail)

The use of strategy like this would be an ongoing problem for

students in learning and understanding oral English usage. Moreover,

students whose vocabulary were limited which unable them to say

anything to communicate. It brings about silent toward student and is

lacking in speaking ability primarily in using expression likely in real

communication.

3. The Result of Questionnaire

The questionnaire was conducted to know the students’ response in teaching learning process, the students’ result of speaking activity, and

the solution of the problem in teaching speaking.

Based on the result of questionnaire before the implementation of

CAR, the writer likes to give some explanations: from the first statement

they are 30 (78.94%) students did not feel satisfied with their score and

(48)

showed only 10 (26.31%) students who like to learn English speaking

and 28 (73.68%) students did not like to learn English speaking. Relating

to the statement number 3, 30 (78.94%) students did not feel motivated in

learning English speaking, it means that only 8 (21.05%) students who

feel motivated in learning English speaking. In statement number 4, 32

(84.21%) students feel difficult in speaking English and 6 (15.78%)

students feel easy in speaking English. Then, in the statement number 5,

12 (31.57%) students said that the sentences were thought is suitable in

their daily life, and 26 (68.21%) students said the sentences were thought

did not suitable in their daily life. The response for the statement number

6, showed that only 8 (21.05%) students used their opportunity to asked

the question, and 30 (78.94%) students did not use their opportunity to

asked the question. In the statement number 7 to 8, showed that 38

(100%) students did not feel that the teacher gave opportunity to the

students to do an exercise in English speaking especially in giving

interpersonal response, and 38 (100%) students seldom used English

language in speaking class. For the statement number 9 to 10 the students

leave it in the blank because the Classroom Action Research have not

implemented yet. (See appendix for detail result of questioner)

Related to the result of questionnaire, it could be concluded that the

students’ activity and motivation in learning English speaking is still low,

there also needed to improve the students’ positive response after the implementation of the action. Therefore the CAR was done.

4. The Result of Pre Test

The pre-test was conducted on the 17th and 20th January 2011 to

measure students’ speaking ability at first, and it was done before implementing Classroom Action Research.

(49)

34

Table 4.1

The Students’ Speaking Score of Pre-Test

(50)

Based on the data above, the writer highlited the students who

passed KKM (65), and to get the result of pre-test, firstly, the writer

calculated the mean score by employing the formula that has already

been previously pointed out.

X = �

X =1772

38

X = 46.63

Next, to know the class percentage that passed the target score of

minimal mastery level criterion- Kriteria Ketuntasan Minimal (KKM)

the writer used the following formula:

P =

F

N

x100%

P =

8

38

x100%

P = 21.05%

Based on the result of pre-test, the data showed that the mean score

of pre-test was 46.63. There were only eight students or 21.05% of

students who got the score passed the minimal mastery level criterion

(KKM).

After analyzing the result of pre-test, it could be concluded that

most of the students at VII-2 class of SMPN 251 had difficulty in

speaking ability. So, it needs to find out the solution to overcome this

problem. Here the writer used „Role Play’ technique in every cycle of

Classroom Action Research to overcome the problem and to develop
