CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION A. Background of Research

Human beings require one another. Humans, as a social civilization, require language as a way of communication with other individuals. People utilize language to communicate information, messages, emotions, and so on. People speak a different language, including English, Dutch, India, French, Spanish, Arabic, Indonesia, and others. It is dependent on the location of the individuals. 2

English is one of the world's most widely spoken languages, with millions of people speaking it in a variety of countries. This is one of the main reasons why English is required to be learnt in schools and institutions. It also qualifies English as the primary means of communication in global communication. This answers the topic of why English is an important worldwide language to learn. It has been taught at all levels of education, including elementary school, junior high school, senior high school, and university. English is now not only a must to study, but also a tool for self-development for everyone, particularly senior high school students.

Listening, speaking, reading, and writing are the four skills that English international students should have. Speaking which is a vital component of communication, is one of the topics being discussed. The process of

2Ambar Wahyuni ”The Effectiveness of Using Direct Methods to Improve Student Speaking Ability”,(A thesis institute for Islamic study of Salatiga, 2013), p. 1.

(19)

communication and information transmission are both facilitated by this speaking activity.3

In this case, even youngsters who have learnt English at school are having difficulty speaking. It was mentioned that many students who wanted to talk to other students with a sense of willpower and curiosity in themselves, frequently faced certain challenges such as not being able to develop ideas, arguments, or their sentiments since they did not know what the purpose of their speech was because most of the students are still low in speaking ability. This becomes a major issue when a method of communication, also known as speaking, is difficult to convert into a foreign language, especially when it is a new experience for them and they are not used to expressing themselves in another language. As a result, communication in different languages does not always function well. Teachers have tried a variety of approaches, strategies, and techniques in teaching English to make it easier for students to grasp and apply the language in their daily lives, but the writer will focus on the direct method.4

There are various aspects that influence one's ability to communicate, both internal and external. The internal aspect has to do with the students’

motivation, interest, and knowledge. Those conditions are most likely the result of their lack of understanding or lack of awareness of the material's difficulty, as well as the tactics or procedures used being uninteresting to the students. Those circumstances have a significant impact on children' learning

outcomes. In most conversations, the world moves forward with only a smidgeon of mental effort. People consider what to say, who they are speaking with, where they are, and how many times they should speak. As a result, the key learning method for students to improve their speaking skills is to focus on their correctness and fluency.5

Today's English teachers are experimenting with various methods, strategies, and procedures in order to help student learn and apply the language in their daily lives. One method of teaching English is to use strategy as a separate entity that cannot be separated in education. A strategy is a plan of action aimed towards achieving a specific goal. Based on the foregoing, the researcher proposes that students be taught using a direct method in order to improve their speaking skills. Students will believe that employing this strategy makes it easy to get a concept without having to bother about grammar. By employing the direct method, the teacher will utilize some photos to convey or illustrate someone, something, or somewhere. It will assist student in exploring and generating ideas for speaking.6

According to the researcher's observation of the MAN 3 MATARAM, students having difficulty speaking, particularly they are low of motivation in speaking, vocabulary and grammar. Many students have difficulties understanding the teacher’s explanation and they lack of enthusiasm to learn, also the method used by the teacher to teach are the same, thus making students bored and not eager to learn, students’ enthusiasm for learning decreases

CHAPTER II

REVIEW OF LITERATURE AND HYPOTHESIS

A. Review of Previous Research

Researcher used previous research as a guide to predict the outcome of the study. Furthermore, the researcher looks for previous research has a similar objective and meaning to the current study. Researcher used some previous researches as literature review in this study, as the following:

The first study, "Improving the Students' Speaking Skill Through Communicative Language Teaching Method at the Tenth Grade of SMAN 3 Polewali," was written by Nuim Hayat (An Experimental Research). The goal of this study is to determine whether using the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) Method may help students speak more accurately and fluently. This study used a one-group pre- and post-test design with a pre- experimental methodology. The demographic of this study consisted of SMAN 3 Polewali students in the tenth grade during the 2017–2018 school year. Twenty pupils from one class make up the sample for this study as a whole. The independent research variable was the correctness and fluency of speaking, while the dependent variable was the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) Method.

Data analysis revealed that in terms of accuracy (6.56 > 5.12) and fluency (6.33 > 5.36), the mean score of the post-test was higher than the mean score of the pre-test. After data analysis, the oft-test accuracy value

(24)

(17.4) and fluency value (6.28), respectively, were higher than the t-table value (2.093). This demonstrated that the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected and the alternative hypothesis (H) was accepted. Meaning that there was a significant different between the students' academic performance that included the use of Communicative Language Teaching.7

This research had the similarities and differences with my research, both of researchers focus on improving students’ speaking skill and both of them used pre-test and post-test to collect the data. The different are the previous research used Communicative Language Teaching method while this research using Direct Method. The previous research used Quantitative experimental research while this research using Classroom Action Research.

Second research conducted by Melti “Using the Silent Way Method in Improving learners speaking Skill at SMA Negeri 2 Palopo”. The purpose of this study is to improve student speaking skill by using silent way method for learning English at SMA 2 palopo. This thesis aplied pre - experimental research. Problem of this research is to know how can silent way method effective in improving student’ speaking and to know how the

student respond to the use of the silent way method in improving student speaking skill. The population of this study were student of class XI 1 SMA Negeri 2 Palopo. The sample is 15 student the research use pre-test and post-test to student. The data were analyzed using SPSS 20 to analyze

7 Nuim Hayat, “Improving the Students' Speaking Skill Through Communicative Language Teaching Method at the Tenth Grade of SMAN 3 Polewali” ( thesis of English Education Department the Faculty of Teachers Training and Education, Muhammadiyah University of Makassar) 2017

(25)

the data. The researcher determined by the classification of the assessment which included accuracy, fluency and understanding. The findings of this study indicate that the use of silent way method is effective in improving student speaking skill where the student learning outcomes on the pre-test average of 37,6 and the post-test average of 45,8. So that the researcher conclude that the use of silent way method effective in improving student speaking skill. 8

This research had the similarities and differences with my research, both of researchers focus on improving students’ speaking skill and both of them used pre-test and post-test to collect the data. But their research used Silent way method while this research using Direct Method. The previous research used Quantitative experimental research while this research using Classroom Action Research.

Third research it was from Ika Tri Septia “The implementation direct methods to improve the student’s speaking achievement” The research was aimed to find out the improvement on the direct method in teaching speaking achievement. This research was applied by using Classroom Action Research (CAR). It was done through planning, action, observation, and reflection.

This research was conducted SMKN 1 Medan Jalan Sandiro No.1 Medan.

This subject of this research was all students in XII PM2 who consisted of 33 students. The researcher conducted two cycles in this research, there were three meetings in cycle 1 and 1 meeting in cycle 2. This research used

8 Melti “Using the Silent Way Method in Improving learners speaking Skill at SMA Negeri 2 Palopo”.(English language Education Study Program Tarbiyah and Teacher Training Faculty State Islamic Institute of Palopo) 2021

(26)

quantitative and qualitative data. The quantitative data was showed that the mean score in cycle 1 was 61.54, the mean score in cycle 2 was 85.75. the students who got score more than 75 in cycle 1 was 12 student and the percentage was 36.36%, the students who got score more than 75 in cycle 2 was 33 students and the percentage was 100%. The qualitative data got from observation sheet in every cycle showed that the improvement of teacher and students’ behavior. Based on the results from quantitative and qualitative data proved that software adope flash improved the students’ achievement in speaking.9

This research had the similarities and difference with my research, both of the researchers using direct method, and both of them using test to collect the data, and used classroom action research. The different is the previous researcher conducted the research at SMKN 1 Medan and the subject is the third grade that consist of 33 students, while this research conducted the research at MAN 3 Mataram and the the subject of the research is the second grade which consist of 15 students.

Based on the three of previous studies the researcher concludes that the similarities of the research 1, 2, and 3 and this research are use pre-test and post-test to collect the data, both use classroom action research and one use qualitative as the methodology. The difference of three previous research and this research is the method of teaching.

B. Theoretical Bases a. Speaking

1) Definition of speaking

Speaking is one of the language skills that focuses on verbal interaction10. It can produce, send or recieve information accurately and smoothly. According to Kosar & Bedir in Aseptiana and Ratih, speaking is an interactive process of constructing meaning that consists of producing and receiving information11.It means, the goal of teaching speaking should improve students’ communicative skills, because students can express them self and learn how to follow the social and cultural rules appropriate in each communicative circumstance.12

Speaking is a type of communication action that has become ingrained in our daily routines. Brown claims that while speaking can be directly and experimentally observed as a producing skill, those observations are usually tinted by the precision and effectiveness of a test taker's listening capacity, compromising the reliability and validity of an oral production test.

Curriculum that is competency-based Speaking is one of the four fundamental skills that students should master. It has a significant impact on communication. Speaking can be found in the spoken cycle,

(28)

particularly at the step of Joint Text Construction (Department Pendidikan Nasional, 2004). Students confront a variety of challenges when it comes to speaking, one of which is the language itself. In reality, even if they have a large vocabulary and have written it correctly, most students have difficulty speaking. The issue is that kids are reluctant to make mistakes. 13

Speaking is defined by Ladouse as the ability to articulate oneself in a circumstance, or the ability to narrate acts or situations in precise terms, or the ability to discourse or express a succession of thoughts smoothly. "Berbicara adalah cara untuk berkomunikasi yang berpengaruh hidup kita sehari-hari," Tarigan (1990: 8) added. It means that speaking as the way of communication effects our own lives profoundly.14

According to Nunan (2003) state speaking is an oral skill to composed of producing a system of oral sentences that to inform meaning. He also added that speaking is the ability to express thoughts, feelings, ideas and emotions and to respond what others say orally. So when we talk we associate and use the language to express our thoughts, feelings and ideas. We also share the information with the other people. Therefore, Harmer state who speaks usually involves two people using language for associate and transactional purpose. When

(29)

study the teacher should create a condition that can support the students to have truly communication so they can communication well.

15

When someone speak to other person, there will be a relationship. The relationship itself is communication. Furthermore, Wilson defines speaking as development of the relationship between speaker and listener. In adition speaking determining which logical linguistic, psychological a physical rule should be applied in a given communicate situation”. It means that the main objective of speaking is for communication. In order to express effectively, the speaker should know exactly what he/she wants to speak or to communicate, he/she has to be able to evaluate the effects of his/her communication to his/her listener, he/she has to understand any principle that based his speaking either in general or in individual.16

Oral practice (speaking) becomes important to students, according to Wallace, when they are required to pay attention to what they are saying. As a result, students will have a better understanding of how to talk or express themselves fluently with accurate vocabularies and appropriate or acceptable pronunciation. 17

From this statement above, the researcher can conclude that speaking is an activity involves by two or more people who both

15 Yudiati, Hery Yufrizal, Ramlan Ginting Suka “Comparative Study of Students’

Speaking Ability through Clamshell Technique and Small Group Discussion” p2.

16 Wilson, S. Living English Structure. London: Longman 1983.

17 Wallace, D’Arcy-Adrian. Junior Comprehension 1. England: Longman. 1987.

(30)

participants are as the listeners and speakers for their contribution to interaction. However, speaking is very important because of a tool for communication and an activity to pouring our thoughts, ideas and feelings.

2) Types of speaking skill

According to Brown (2004) says that there are five basic types of speaking,18 they are:

a) Imitative of speaking

Imitative speaking is ability to simply parrot back (imitate) a word or phrase or probably sentences. This indicates that the students are allowing their teacher's words to be repeated in different words. For instance, when the teacher says "school," the students also say it.

b) Intensive of speaking

The second way of speaking is intensive. Intensive is the production of a short pressure of oral language that is relegated to demonstrative competence in a limited grammatical, syntactic, lexical or phonological relationship. The speaker must be aware of the semantic nature in order to respond, but the interaction with the interlocutor is at best minimal. In this type, the student must know the meaning of the word what the other student has said so that he

18 Douglas H. Brown, “Language Assessment” Principles and Classroom Practice, (San Francisco University,2004), p.141-142.

(31)

can answer correctly and there are no communication problems between them.

c) Responsive

Responsive means reacting to something quickly and positively. This type includes test interaction and comprehension, but somehow at a limited level of very short conversations, standard greetings and small tasks, simple requests, comments, etc.

It means how quickly the student responds directly to what the teacher or anyone says. For instance:

Teacher: how are you today?

Students: pretty good, thank you and you?

d) Interactive

The difference between interactive speech and reactive speech lies in the duration and complexity of the interaction, sometimes involving several exchanges and several participants in the exercise. Interaction can take the two forms of transactional language, which aims to exchange specific information, or interpersonal exchange, which aims to maintain social relationships.

e) Extensive (monologue)

Extensive speaking tasks include speeches, oral presentations, and storytelling, in which the listener's opportunity for oral participation is either severely limited or completely

(32)

eliminated from the above explanations, the researcher concludes that there are five ways of speaking. Begins with imitation, which is the simplest example of speech, which can only repeat a word or phrase or within a phrase, down to the last type, which is extended and is the most common type of speech. more complex, used for speech, oral language and storytelling is required.

3) Components of speaking

Speaking is a difficult skill that requires the simultaneous use of a variety of skills that often develop at different speeds.

Pronunciation, grammar, fluency, comprehension and vocabulary are four or five components often identified when evaluating speech processe.19 Those components are:

a) Pronunciation

Pronunciation including segmental features: vowels, consonants, stress and intonation patterns. As Hammer points out, if students are to be proficient in English, they must be able to pronounce the phoneme correctly using pressure and intonation patterns and speak in connected speech. The speaker must be able to articulate words and produce meaningful bodily sounds. With the speed of word propagation, second language learners find it difficult to distinguish voices in new languages that do not exist in the languages they understand.

19 Miraya Likhulaila Nasution, “The Implementation of Small Group Discusssion to Improve Student’s Speaking Ability at Eight Grade of MTs Bina Ulama Kisaran, (Thesis, Faculty of Teachers Training UIN North Sumatra Medan, 2017), p.22.

(33)

b) Grammar

To be able to speak a foreign language, we must know a number of grammatical skills, because grammar is a system of forming a new sentence. Grammar is very important when speaking, because if the speaker does not know the grammatical structure, he will not be able to speak English well.

c) Vocabulary

Vocabulary is a fundamental part of language. The vocabulary consists only of simple words, phrases, variable phrases, phrasal verbs and idioms. It is impossible for us to speak English well if we have a limited vocabulary.

d) Fluency

In simple term, fluency is the ability to communicate happily without pauses or stutters. Fluent language, on the other hand, can be defined as the ability to continue speaking spontaneously. Students should be able to send messages with whatever assessment and proficiency they already have in speaking fluently, regardless of grammar and other issues. The last aspect of speaking is understanding.

e) Comprehension

Comprehension is discussed at the fault of both speakers because it can give people the extra information they want.

Comprehension is defined as the ability to take something for an

(34)

adequate understanding of the subject or to know how a situation really is.

Based on the above theories, the researcher attempts to analyze student improvement using the categories that affect the speaking ability of students.

4) Teaching speaking skill

Harmer argues that there are three main reasons for learning fluency. First, conversational activities provide hands-on opportunities for practicing real-life safety in the classroom. Secondly, a conversation assignment where students try to use the English language they know and provide feedback to both the teacher and the students. Finally, the more students have had the opportunity to activate different linguistic elements that they have stored in the brain, the more automatic they use these elements to become. As a result, students gradually become autonomous language users. This means that they will be able to use words and speak fluently without much conscious thought.20

Brown states that there are seven principles for teaching speaking skill.21 Those are:

a) Focus on both fluency and accuracy, depending on your objective.

b) Provide intrinsically motivating techniques.

20 Honag Adi Riyanto “,"Improving Speaking Skill through Small Group Discussion, (Thesis, Faculty of English Departement Teacher Training and Education,State Institute for Islamic studies (IAIN) Salatiga, 2016), hal 37.

21 H. Douglas Brown,“Teaching by Principle,” an Interactive Approach to Language Pedagogy, (San Fracisco, 2007), p.331-332

(35)

c) Encourage the use of authentic language in meaningful contexts.

d) Provide appropriate feedback and correction.

e) Capitalize on the natural link between speaking and listening.

f) Give students opportunities to initiate oral communication.

g) Encourage the development of speaking strategies.

From the above explanation, we can see that all the design principles of speaking techniques are necessary for us. The need is to pass exams for students to move on to the next one and until they graduate from their school so that they can talk and have a good conversation. Because if we want to know the speaking skills of the students, we can see it in their conversation activities.

5) Assessment of speaking

Speaking is one of the complex skills because if learners want to master it, they need to develop their grammar, pronunciation, vocabulary and confidence among the skills in English speaking is considered to be the most difficult to assess and one of the reasons is that the examiner is difficult to decide by what criteria the oral communication should be assessed. Then, in the oral expression assessment, there are certain elements that are often tested, such as pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, fluency, comprehension, etc.22 Brown state that defines scale rating scores as follows:23

b. Direct Method

1) Definition of direct method

The direct method, according to Rivers, was beneficial because it provided "an engaging and interesting way to learn a foreign language through activity." It has been helpful in removing the inhibitions too often associated with speaking a foreign language, especially in the early stages.24

Many students find it difficult to speak English well because they rarely use it in their daily life out of fear. For fear of making a mistake when speaking English, they prefer to keep quiet. They are afraid that their friends will laugh at them if they make a mistake in

24Rivers, W.M. Teaching Foreign Language Skills. New York: University of Chicago Press, 1968.

(40)

grammar. In this scenario, many high school children cannot communicate in English even though they have many words in their heads. As the author's experience shows, many learners chose to drop out of classes when they had English as their subject. Basically the students know what the teacher is saying and when the teacher asks them they know the answer to the teacher's questions but they shut up because they don't speak it in English. Many students are passive and silent when speaking English. As a result, students always speak in their native language. To solve problems, the writer chooses one method from eight methods, which is the direct method. Especially the direct method is not used for beginners, but for students who have a basic knowledge of English. The direct method has a very simple rule: no translations are allowed. In fact, the direct method derives its name from the fact that the meaning must be linked directly to the target language without going through the process of translation into the native language of the students.25

When using the direct method of teaching to speak, the teacher gives the object directly. For example, when the teacher wants to describe a beautiful girl, the teacher should prepare or take the picture and show it directly to the students.

When the teacher describes that picture and there are some students who don't understand the teacher's description or there are

25 Ibid.,

(41)

some words that the students don't understand, the teacher should be able to make them understand without translating the word. For example, if the teacher said "straight hair and a sharp nose" and the students do not understand its meaning, the teacher should provide a picture of straight hair and a pointed nose. Or it could be showing a student with straight hair and a pointed nose in class. This way the students will understand what the teacher is saying.26.

2) The Principles of Direct method

There are some principles of direct method27, they are:

a) Reading in the target language should be taught from the beginning of language teaching; however, reading skills can be developed by practicing speaking. Language is primarily the word.

b) Object (e.g., picture) present in the immediate classroom environment should be used to help students understand its meaning.

c) The native language should not be used in the classroom

d) The teacher must demonstrate and not explain or translate. It is desirable that students make a direct association between the target language and the meaning.

26Firinta TogatoropUse of Direct Method in Teaching Speaking Descriptive at the Second Year of SMA Negeri 2 Pematangsiantar’’2016.

27 Ibid..,

(42)

e) Students must learn to think in the target language as quickly as possible.

f) Vocabulary is acquired more naturally when students use it in complete sentences rather than by memorizing lists of words.

g) The purpose of language learning is communication (therefore, students must learn to ask and answer questions).

h) Pronunciation should be worked on at the beginning of the language lesson.

i) Self-correction facilitates of language learning.

j) Lessons should include some conversation activities, an opportunity for students to use the language in real contexts.

Students should be encouraged to speak as much as possible.

k) Grammar must be thought inductively. An explicit grammar rule should never be given.

l) Writing is an important skill to develop from the start of language learning.

m) The syllabus is based on situations or topics, usually not on the linguistic structure.

n) Learning another language also means learning how the speakers of that language live.

(43)

3) The Techniques of Direct Method

The techniques of direct method28 ,those are;

a) Reading aloud

Students take turns reading a part of a passage, a play or a dialogue aloud. At the end of each student's shift, the teacher uses gestures, pictures, examples, or other means to clarify the meaning of the section.

b) Question and answer exercise

This exercise is conducted only in the target language.

Students are encouraged to ask questions and respond in full sentences, allowing them to practice new words and grammatical structures. You have the opportunity to ask and answer questions.

c) Getting students to self- correct

The teacher in this class has the students correct by asking them to choose between what they said and an alternative answer they gave. However, there are also other ways for students to correct themselves. For example, a teacher may simply repeat what a student just said; she uses a questioning voice to let the student know that something was wrong. Another possibility is for the teacher to repeat what the students have said and stop just before the mistake. The student knows that the next word was wrong.

28 Ibid..,

(44)

d) Conversation practice

The teacher asks the students a series of questions in the target language, which the students must understand in order to be able to answer them correctly. In the observed class, the teacher asked individual students questions about themselves. The questions contain some grammatical structure. Next, students could ask their own questions using the same grammar structure.

e) Fill in the blank exercise

Furthermore, no explicit grammar rules would be applied.

Students would have worked out the grammar rule they need to fill in the blanks from examples and practiced with earlier parts of the lesson.

f) Dictation

The teacher reads the passage three times. The first time, the teacher reads it at a normal pace, while the students just listen. The second time, the teacher reads the passage sentence by sentence and pauses long enough for the students to write down what they have heard. The last time the teacher reads the passage at normal speed and the students check their work.

g) Map drawing

The class included an example of a technique used by students to practice listening comprehension. The students were given a map with unnamed geographic features. Then the teacher

(45)

gave the students clues such as the following: 'Find the mountain range to the west. Write the words Rocky Mountain Above the Mountain Range. The teacher provided directions for the entire geographic feature of the United States so that the students would have a fully labeled map if they followed her instructions correctly. Then the students instructed the teacher to do the same with a map he had drawn on the board. Each student can take a turn to instruct the teacher on how to find and name a geographic feature.

4) The Procedures of Direct Method

The following procedure is adapted from Larsen-Freeman.29 a) The students are called on one by one and they read the

text loudly

b) After the students finish reading the passage, they are asked in the target language if they have questions.

c) The teacher answers the students’ question in the target language

d) The teacher works with the students on the pronunciation e) The teacher gives question to the students and the

questions and statements are about the students in the classroom.

29 Larsen diane. Using The Direct Method In Teaching To Improve Students’ Speaking Skill At Purikids Language Course.University Of Murcia, 2000.

(46)

f) The student make up their own questions and statements and direct them to other students in the classroom.

g) The teacher instructs the students to turn to an exercise in the lesson which asks them to fill in the blanks.

h) The students read a sentence out loud and supply the missing word as they are reading.

i) The teacher asks the students to take out their notebooks and he/she gives them a dictation; the passage is about the topic that has been discussed.

h) Paragraph writing

The teacher in this class asked the students to write a paragraph in their own words about the main geographical features of the United States. They could have done this form of memory, or they could have used the reading passage from the lesson as a model.

CHAPTER III RESEARCH METHOD A. Setting of Research

The research about improving the student’s speaking skill by using direct method has taken place in MAN 3 mataram in academic year 2021/2022. One of junior high school which is located in Jl. Raya Geguntur, Kelurahan jempong, Kecamatan Sekarbela, Kota Mataram and Provinsi Nusa Tenggara Barat. Research study conducted in the second semester of the academic year 2021/2022.

B. Object of Research

The object of this research is improving students’ speaking skill by using direct method and to know how the student activities at second grade of MAN 3 Mataram in academic year 2021/2022.

C. Design of research

The design use in this research is Classroom Action Research (CAR).

Classroom action research used to increase the result of teaching and learning process. It helps the teacher to awareness of the process.30 The procedure of data collection conducted in two cycle. Classroom action research involved four steps namely: planning, action, observation and reflection.

In this research uses Kemmis and McTaggar model as the design of research. There is an action research model that the researcher used as follows:

30 Miraya Likhulaila Nasution, “The Implementation of Small Group Discusssion to Improve Student’s Speaking Ability at Eight Grade of MTs Bina Ulama Kisaran, (Thesis, Faculty of Teachers Training UIN North Sumatra Medan, 2017) p, 39.

(48)

FIGURE1.1

Figure Cyclical Action Research model

Kemmis & Taggart in Purnama Syae Purrohman CAR Cycles31 D. Planning

In this stage, the researcher plans some actions that are needed to make this research successful, such as:

a. Doing Pre-Observation

This indicates that the researcher made a preliminary study to collect preliminary data on students and their school environment. This

31 Purnama Syae Purrohman, “Classroom Action Research Alternative Research Activity for Teacher”, Article of Research Gate, University Muhammadiyah Prof. Dr. Hamka, 2011, p. 7

(49)

action is required to ensure what the researcher would do in designing the research.

b. Choosing Media or Strategy for Students

After the preliminary data of students has been taken, the researcher chooses a media or suitable strategy for students to repair the lack of the students learning practice. In this case, the researcher chose Direct Method as the strategy of this research.

c. Deciding the Date of the Research

It is critical to create a research schedule for this research to proceed smoothly. This research take action in March 2022.

d. Arranging Lesson Plan

The researcher creates a lesson plan to cover the students’ activities while conducting the research.

e. Collaborating with the Teacher

To conduct the study, the researcher collaborated with the teacher in applying the action. The teacher would teach students as usual before implementing Direct Method in the classroom, which the research would observe.

E. Taking Action

The action of the research would be conducted on March 2022 by implementing Direct method to improve student speaking skill. The researcher collaborates with the English teacher at that school in implementing the action in order to success the research. Some activities have been arranged by the

(50)

researcher during the lesson, the researcher did the steps activities in the following:

a. Initial Activities

1) The English teacher of the MAN 3 Mataram monitoring the researcher in the class.

2) The researcher starts the class by saying greeting and asking the students' condition.

3) The researcher checks students’ attendance.

4) The researcher gives motivation and inform the goal of study in the class.

b. Core Activities

1) The researcher explained the important of speaking.

2) The researcher introduced the Direct method technique and its procedure.

3) The researcher introduced the topic to the students.

4) The researcher gave the object directly and ask them to describe the object.

c. Closing Activities

1) The researcher gives some feedback to all of the students.

2) The researcher closes the learning program.

Action is the process of doing something. It is the implementation of planning. In this step, researcher would explain the importance of speaking. Then researcher introduced the Direct method technique and its

(51)

procedure. The researcher explains the material in teaching and learning process, then introducing the topic to the students. The researcher gave the object directly. After that teacher ask them to describe the object.

F. Observation

In this step, researcher would observe and write students’ activities during teaching and learning process, such as the attitude, behavior within the obstacles that happen while the students read a text and did their work individually. The observation is doing to write the outcome of the learning teaching process by implementation several question orally.

G. Reflection

Reflection is the process feedback from the action that has been done.

It is utilize to help teacher make decide by analyze the condition and the students’ difficulties of problem in understanding the lesson. In this step, researcher would take feedback from teaching and learning process from the result of the observation sheet and students test. The aims of that is to improve students’ speaking skill. If in the first cycle the researcher not found the result the researcher would continue to the second cycle. In this section there are four steps they are, planning, action, observation and reflection.

H. Instrument of research

(52)

The researcher uses the instrument of collecting data to get the data by using observation and tests. The explanation is as follows:

a. Observation sheet

The researcher would collect the data using observation sheets, which contain a list of activities that may occur throughout the treatment.

Observation sheets would be utilized to keep track of the teacher’s and students’ activities during the teaching-learning process. The activities are listed as follows:
