CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

In this chapter the writer presents the general issues related to the research. These include background of the research, statement of the problem, objective of the research, significance of the research, scope of the research and operational definition.

1.1  Background of the Research

Teaching speaking is not a simple thing to do. Unsiah and Wardani (2012:1) state that speaking is not only producing sounds but also a process of achieving goals that involves transferring messages across. It means that teaching speaking focuses not only in producing the voice but also delivering the meaning to the others. It needs certain way to invite the students to speak based on the certain context.

Improving students’ Speaking Skill as the foreign language in the classroom is not easy because the students do not use their English in their daily activities. The students commonly learn English 2- 3 periods a week. It feels very lack if the teacher does not have the appropriate way to teach the students. According to Nunan (1991:51), “Success is measured in term of ability to carry out a conversation in the (target) language”. In addition, Rahman (in Priajana, 2012:1) states that oral communication is unique and learned rhetorical skill that requires understanding what to say and how to say it. It means that the teacher needs to facilitate their students to be active in practice speaking English as much as possible in the class and it must be useful for them because it might be hard for students to practice in speaking English outside the English class.

In the context of teaching English, SMK Negeri 1 Kedung Jepara needed more attention in teaching speaking for the students. There were many students did not show the positive participation in the class. The students listened to their teacher more than practice speaking in English. These then made many students get lower score than the passing grade in speaking. In addition, based on the result of interview to the teacher related to the teaching media, the teacher said she seldom used certain media in teaching process. This then made the students easy to be bored in practice speaking because of the monotone way in teaching English. The result of observation showed that the teacher was still a main actor in the classroom; since it was not appropriately done for the school that expects to use students centered learning.

Based on the case of teaching speaking in SMK Negeri 1 Kedung Jepara, the writer would like to introduce the media to improve students’ speaking skill that is called Board Game. It is important to try using this media in teaching speaking because the tenth grade students are ideally can produce the simple sentences fluently and accepted by others, so they must be active in speaking English at least in the class. In addition, it is also important to decrease students’ boredom in English class so that teaching and learning objective can be reached well.

Teaching by using Board Game would make some improvements; the student’s speaking skill would be better because in the teaching by using Board Game uses pictures that catch students’ interest and instructions in the game which invite the students to be more active in speaking. Board Game would increase not only students’ speaking skill because of the roles that invite the students to speak more but also students’ role in the class. It means the teaching activity by using Board Game designs the Students Centered Learning.

Based on the explanation above, the writer was interested in doing a classroom action research entitled “ImprovingSpeaking Skill of the Tenth Graders of SMK Negeri 1 Kedung Jepara by Using Board Game in the Academic Year2014/2015”.
