IMPROVING STUDENTS
SPEAKING SKILL THROUGH PROBLEM-BASED LEARNING (PBL) STRATEGY
***
INTRODUCTON
In Indonesia, English status is as a
foreign language which Is not all people understand how to use it. However it
is used as compulsory subject for junior high school, senior high school, and
even for elementary school too. The basic purpose of learning English are
creating intelligent, skillful and ready for young generations in participating
national challenges for better future in the field of science, technology and
art. Targeted lessons of the English are reading, speaking, listening, writing
and grammar with much more emphasis in speaking, reading, writing and listening
(The Decree of Indonesia Ministry of Education and Culture No. 060/U/1993).
Kayi (2010) wrote that the main part
of second language learning teaching is speaking. As a fact of today, many teachers do not take care of
having good or appropriate method in solving students’ speaking problem. They
better like to use the simple way than taking more time in teaching. As the
data of
first grade student of SMP ISLAM YASMIN JAKARTA TIMUR, the mean score of
English semester 59.34. About 75%
students in that grade have poor ability in speaking. The investigation found
that classroom learning process is the mean source of the problem. The
teacher’s strategy tended to be teacher centered in learning English activity,
they have spoken much more than students did that make students be passive.
Almost all students only respond on the teacher’s question with Yes-No question
given. Lack of enthusiasm in learning, unconfident to express and unsupported
environment (English area and facility) are the other aspects that affected
students.
The strategy selection has an
important to create the expectation of the teachers that can be answered by the
implementation of creative method, appropriate materials and interested or
enjoyable learning process (3)
