CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

A. Background of Study

English is a tool to communicate among people in the world. As a tool

of communication, the language has a very important role in the life to express

feelings, ideas or opinion, between speakers and hearers, or writers and

readers. To be good speakers, hearers, writers and readers, we have to learn the

language formally and informally. The language can be formally studied in an

institution such as in school and we can learn it informally such as in houses,

boarding rooms, in English study club, etc.

The students‟ ability to develop depends on how the teacher attracts

their attentions and interest by creating new situation in classroom that can

encourage the students‟ motivation. So that English teachers are required to

help the students to overcome the learning English problems. For this reason,

the teacher should use suitable methods, teaching aids or techniques in order to

make teaching-learning process become more interesting and creates a good

atmosphere for the students to enjoy learning English.

Page 31: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

Jeremy harmer said that “…it seems reasonable to suggest that the

motivation which students bring to class is the biggest single factor affecting

their success.”1

From the definition above, we know that motivation in the classroom

affects both learning and behavior of the students who are motivated to learn

more.

The students with higher motivation to learn English will show effort

to learn more than students with lower motivation.

By generating motivation and interest in learning English, English

video can create a climate for successful learning. Because video can give the

idea that language learning is a happy experience, and video creates an

attractive, enjoyable in learning English. And also video represents a positive

exploitation of technology.

Jack Lonergan said: “Video is another useful aid for the language

teacher.”2

By using English videos, the teacher can give information to the

students clearly, moreover, the students can get and understand the information

easily because the teacher display what lesson is being discussed and they can

see what the teacher means directly.

From the results of preliminary observations on class VIII.10 at SMP

PGRI 1 Ciputat, writer obtained information and data that most students are

less motivated in learning English. The students look lazy and less enthusiastic

in participating in the learning process. This is a problem that encourages

writers to do research.

Longman, 1991) p.3 2 Jack Lonergan, Video in Language Teaching, (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press,

1984). P.5

Pre research begins with observation in the classroom for one week in

two meetings with each meeting two hours of lessons. Results of pre-study are

as follows:

1. No students‟ preparation. It is shown; many students go out when the

teacher enters the classroom to borrow English books in library or his/her

friends in another class.

2. When the teacher started the lesson, students seemed very noisy and

talkative with their friends and students did not pay attention to the teacher

who has stayed in class, they looked not interested in learning English.

3. Learning process in the classroom was Passive. This is shown; when

teacher made question on whiteboard, the students did not directly answer

when asked by the teacher, only a few students who want to write their

own answers the question on the whiteboard without asking first, students

did not want to ask about the subject matter was not yet understood.

4. Students were less enthusiastic during the study. This is characterized by a

lack of students who dared to answer the question to the front of the class

and most students do not understand the material given by the teacher.

In addition, the identification results above that there are some

indicators that show some students‟ difficulty in learning. Learning difficulties

can be seen from the student's personality. From the symptoms of learning

difficulties, is one of them, students‟ motivation,

The writer will use the English Videos to motivate the students to

comprehend the learning English easier. English Videos can provide the most

useful and most interesting lesson. It has natural, funny, dramatic, engaging

dialogue, and giving students excellent in practice both listening and

speaking. This combination of moving picture and sound can present

language more comprehensively then any other teaching medium and more

realistically too.

According Susan Stempleksi stated:

The American psychologist, Robert Merabian, has estimated that as

much as 80 percent of our communication is non-verbal. Our gesture,

expression, posture, dress and surroundings are as eloquent as what

we actually say. Video allows us to see this action and to freeze any

moment to study the non-verbal communication in detail. Recipes like

„body language‟ and „in the mood‟ offer suggestion for exploiting this

unique contribution of video to language learning.3

Tomalin. 1992. “Teaching Young Children with video” in S.

Stempleski book said;

Video offers a number of other special advantages in teaching:

- First, it is visual and highly motivating.

- Second, video offers shows the language in use.

- Third, video offers the child an opportunity to absorb the

culture of the target language community by seeing the daily

life, dress, and costumes that lie behind the language

transactions presented.4

Based on the assumption that have been explained above, it is

extremely important to emphasize that using English videos is one of ways to

improving students‟ motivation especially in learning English.

In this case, the writer is interested in improving students‟ motivation

by using English videos in learning English at the second grade of SMP PGRI

1 Ciputat, Kota Tangerang Selatan.

B. Limitation and Formulation of the Problem

To avoid the research becomes wider; this research is limited to the

discussion on the improving students‟ motivation of the second grade students

at SMP PGRI 1 Ciputat, Kota Tangerang Selatan in learning English by using

English Videos.

To clarify the study, the writer has formulated the problem;

- Can English videos improve the students‟ motivation in learning

English?

- How can English videos improve the students‟ motivation in

learning English?

C. Objective of the Study

The objective of the study is to describe the English video can

improve the students‟ motivation in learning English or not and to describe the

process of English video can improve the students‟ motivation in learning

English.

D. The Method of the Study

The method used in this study is classroom action research (CAR).

The CAR procedure used in this research is Stephen Kemmis‟ and Taggart

design. The writer uses two cycles and every cycle has 4 steps as follow:

Planning, Acting, Observing, and Reflecting. In this research, the researcher

has a role as a planner of research activity and a research conductor. The

researcher makes a planning of the activity, doing the activity, observing,

collecting and analyzing the data, and reporting the research finding. And also,

the researcher will be helped by the English teacher of SMP PGRI 1 Ciputat as

the observer in the classroom.

E. Significance of the Study.

1. For the writer; the result of the study is expected to give a

description about the improving students‟ motivation in learning

English by using English video.

CHAPTER II

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

A. Motivation

1. The Understanding of Motivation

Motivation has a significant role in teaching learning process. The

students who have a high motivation will get a better opportunity to succeed in

their learning activities. And one of the major objectives of education is to

build a strong and persistent motivation to learn. “… it seems reasonable to

suggest that the motivation that student bring to class is the biggest single

factor effecting their success.”5

Various definition of motivation has been given by many

psychologists because motivation is one of the personal factors. Because of its

importance writer have to comprehend about motivation. In order to know and

understand what motivation of the behavior is done.

Harmer states, “Motivation is some kind of internal drive that

encourages somebody to pursue a course action.”6

Lindsley as quoted by William C. Morse said, “Motivation is a

combination of force which initiate direct and sustain behavior toward a goal.”7

H. Douglas Brown said, “Motivation is commonly thought of as an

inner drive, impulse, emotion, or desire that moves one to particular action.”8

Longman, 1991), p. 3 6Jeremy Harmer, The Practice of English language Teaching New Edition, (London,

Longman, 1991), p.3 7 William C. Morse, Psychology and Teaching, (Michigan:Scott, Foresman, and

Company, 1978), p. 355 8 H. Douglas Brown, Principles of Language Learning And Teaching fourth edition,

(New Jersey: Prentice-Hall, Inc, 1980).p112

Page 37: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

Richard I Arends said, “Motivation, like classroom climate, is an

abstract concept that is not easy to define. It is internal to the person and thus

cannot be observed.”9

Penny Ur says that “is easy to comprehend the motivated learner than

motivation itself. The motivated learner, who is wiling or even eager to invest

effort in learning activities, make teaching and learning process more pleasant

and easier. There are seven characteristics of motivated learner:

a. Positive task orientation. The learner is willing to tackle tasks and

challenges, and has confidence in his or her success.

b. Ego involvement. The learner finds it important to succeed in

learning in order to maintain and promote his or her own (positive)

self-image.

c. Need for achievement. The learner has a need to achieve, to

overcome difficulties and succeed in what he or she sets out to do.

d. High aspirations. The learner is ambitious, goes for demanding

challenges, high proficiency, top grades.

e. Goal orientation. The learner is very aware of the goals of learning,

or of specific learning activities, and directs his or her efforts

towards achieving them.

f. Perseverance. The learner consistently invests a high level of effort

in learning, and it is not discouraged by setbacks or apparent lack

of progress.

g. Tolerance of ambiguity. The learner is not disturbed or frustrated

by situations involving a temporary lack of understanding or

confusion; he or she can live with these patiently, in the confidence

that understanding will come later. 10

1989), p. 161 10 Penny Ur, a Course in Language Teaching: Practice And Theory (London: Cambridge

Univerity Press, 1996), p. 275

Page 38: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

9

From the definition above, it can be concluded that motivation is

general terms that refer to drive behavior to a goal, a need or incentive which

pushes someone to do thing in order to achieve something and which directs

the individual‟s activities.

2. The Kinds of Motivation

Motivation in learning English can be divided into two kinds, namely

intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation

a. Intrinsic Motivation

Jeremy Harmer said, ”Intrinsic motivation comes from within the

individual.”11

Alving W. Horward said, ”intrinsic in which the learning itself is

valuable enough to bring about pupil action.”12

Intrinsic motivation includes

Desire, Interest, Need, Goal13

1) Desire

Desire will be motivated to learn if he or she a desire to learn, but if he

or she doesn‟t have in him or her self, she or he will be lazy to learn. They will

be encouraged to shown their intrinsic motivation. Jeremy Harmer said, “Thus

a person might be motivated by enjoyment of the learning process itself or by

a desire to make themselves feel better.”14

Jeremy Harmer, The practice of English Language Teaching, (London: Longman,

1991), p. 51

Page 39: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

10

2) Interest

Interest is the second factor which determines an attitude in working

or studying actively. Learning process will run well, if the students have an

interest.

The students will study regularly of effectively and they will succeed

if they have a high interest. David R. Stone and Elvin C Nielson said, “on

personal is a positive interest that will increase the chances for success.”15

Elizabeth B. Hurlock said that: “Interest are source of motivation

which drive people to do what they want to do when they are free to

choose.”16

In teaching learning process, a teacher should not only transfer

knowledge to the students but they should also increase their interest in

learning in order that they want to learn harder and have motivation to learn.

3) Need

The term „need is defined as “circumstances in which something is

lacking or necessary or which require something to be done”17

Everyone has

needs either physical or spiritual needs, such as clothing, home, food, health,

etc. for his or her life. And every person has a need to succeed and a need to

develop a positive self-concept.

H. Douglas Brown said,” The “need” concept of motivation in some

ways belongs to all three schools or thought: the fulfillment of need is

and Row Publishers, 1982),. P.165 16

11

rewarding, requires choices, and in many cases must be interpreted in a social

context.” 18

“A need was defined as an internal state of disequilibrium which

causes individuals to pursue certain of action in an effort to regain internal

equilibrium.”19

Murray as quoted by Richard M. Steer, states that manifest need

theory, focusing on three, namely:

a) The need for achievement

The need for achievement as behavior directed toward

competition with a standard of excellence.

b) The need for a affiliation

The need for affiliation is defined as a desire to establish

and maintain friendly and warn relations with other individuals.

c) The need for power

This need is defined as the need to control other, to

influence their behavior and to be responsible for them.20

From the definitions above, we can get a conclusion that need is a

tendency which have stock in an individual generating motivation and

generate deportment to reach target. This requirement arises by existence of

change (internal drive) in organism generating energy constituting

deportment toward target. Become need is requirement generate motivation at

someone behavior.

12

4) Goal

Almost all people have aims or goals in all activities that they want to

do in their daily life. Goal can lead someone to do or to avoid something

related to the goal itself.

In teaching process, the goal should be understood by the students,

because it will be an important motivation for them. If they know the

appropriate goal they have to prepare everything that can help them to achieve

their goal.

By knowing a certain goal, the students who have a high motivation

will go to the library to borrow some books in order to get more references,

because they think that the resource they get from their school are not enough.

b. Extrinsic Motivation

In a case, many experts have defined extrinsic motivation differently,

but generally those definitions have the same meanings and purpose. Jeremy

Harmer said “Extrinsic motivation is caused by any number of outside

factors.”21

Extrinsic motivation is important in teaching learning process, to

improve or to support their students in learning English. There are some

factors, which can increase extrinsic motivation in teaching learning process

as follow:

1) Teacher

Teacher is not only a person who transfers knowledge to the students,

but also as a motivator who can motivate or support the students in learning

activity. Teacher has a responsibility in order to make learning process

successfully. Therefore, teacher has an obligation to arise motivation of their

pupils so they will learn hard.

21

Jeremy Harmer, The practice of English Language Teaching third edition, (London:

Longman, 2001), p.51

Page 42: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

13

Ira J. Gordon, “Teacher is directly and intimately involved in all

guidance activities. He plays a role in the total program, although there are

definite responsibilities which are relegated to specialist. This holds true at all

level of education from kindergarten through college.”22

Most guidance work must be done in the classroom, by teacher who

processes the guidance viewpoint and incorporate it in their teaching and

other relationship with students.

Teacher should know that what they do has an influence to the

students‟ learning process and their behavior. In fact, teaching by teaching is

an attempt to influence the behavior and learning of students.

When teacher are supercritical and down grade children ability, they

are not likely to be eager to learn. When teachers offer praise and

encouragement, on the other hand the students are more likely to be

motivated.

2) Environment

A student who has a high interest and is taught by a qualified teacher

is not always guarantee to study or succeed well, but there is still other factor

which can motivate him or her in order to study hard, that is environment.

In education, environment has the effect toward students‟ growth,

therefore any educator give the attention toward the principles of environment

as one of the important principles in educational world. The environment

which can influence the student can be divide into:

22

Ira J. Gordon, The Teacher as A Guidence Worker, (New York: Harper and Row

Publisher, 1956), p. 6

Page 43: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

14

a) Home environment, especially parent.

Home environment, especially parents have an important

influence for the students‟ motivation.

Richard I Arend said, “on achievement motivations found strong

relationships between the child-rearing practices of parent and

child‟s achievement motivations. Parents who encourage their

children to try new things and who reward them for high

perform; establish in their children a need to achieve and a

willingness to take risks. On the other hand parent who overly

protect their children and punish them for failure tend to raise

children with low motivation.”23

b) Classroom

Classroom climate is the atmosphere of the classroom.”

Classroom climate is defined as the type of environment that is

created for students‟ by the school, teachers and peers.”24

The Schmuck as quoted by Richard I Arends, defines a positive

climate in the classroom processes to support the students‟

motivation in learning. The Schmuck said, “Classroom climate

is an important concept. A positive climate is one in which the

students‟ expect one another to do their intellectual best and to

support one another; where the students share high amounts of

potential influence both with one another and with the teacher;

where norm are supportive for getting academic work done, as

well as for maximizing individual difference; where

communication is open and featured by dialogue; and where the

processes of working and developing together as a group are

considered relevant in themselves for study.25

Classroom are social system, and such as they influence both

student and teacher behavior. Students‟ motivation and learning are

influenced by the types of process and structure created in particular

classroom.

Biggs said that, “The rule and facilities in the classroom as a

balanced system of some kind to make a workable management

environment. Once that is established, the same system properties can

be used to create a balanced learning/teaching environment.”26

The teacher must pay attention to handling of physical

conditions of classroom. They must be aware of problems of

ventilation, lighting, glare, and hearing, even such little things as

lowering and raising window shades, and maintaining room neatness.

B. Videos

1. The Understanding of English Video

English video can be categorized to the authentic video. Video is

visible part of television transmission, ”they could still receive the sound but

the picture was gone”.

Video is a recording of both the visual and audible components

(especially one containing a recording of a movie or television program).

Video is a form of multimedia that conveys information through two

simultaneous sensory channels: aural and visual.”27

Video is the technology of electronically capturing, recording,

processing, storing, transmitting, and reconstructing a sequence of still

images representing scenes in motion.

Page 45: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

16

2. The types of videos

Authentic video used in language teaching can be taken from a wide

variety of source. Jack Lonergan categorizes the sources of video film

broadly as follows:

a. Video recording of language teaching broadcasts and films:

In this kind of video, the language may be graded that are

presentation of new vocabulary items, structures, or speech

components will be controlled

b. Video recordings of domestic television broadcast, such as comedy

program and news program:

This video can be used in the classroom to bring to language

learning the same benefits as the use of realia because they are

real, meaningful, and have a relevance to the students‟ needs of

language learning.

c. Video recording of specialist films or television program such as

documentaries produced by industry, or educational program:

Many industries and companies produce films to inform general

public and specialist about aspects of their work. These films can

be use in education that is usually available on video cassette.

d. Video language-teaching materials made for the classroom rather

than for public transmission as broadcast:

This video has the advantages that medium television brings, as

well as being designed specially for the purpose of educational

use.

e. Self-made video films, involving the teachers and learners:

Page 46: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

17

Working with video camera can be very exiting both for students

and teacher. The film can be used to analyze the use of language,

gesture and reaction. 28

3. The Advantages and Disadvantages of (Using) English Videos

a. Advantages of Using English Videos

English video are widely used in schools. This is because of their

power in bringing in specialized presenters and educational experiences to

supplement classroom work. Video are especially useful for developing and

enriching knowledge, skills and attitudes at all levels of schooling and in most

curriculum areas.

Tomalin. (1992). “Teaching Young Children with video” in S.

Stempleski book said;

The benefits of using video with children:

- Children enjoy language learning with video.

- Video communicates meaning better than other media.

- Video is an effective way to study body language.

- Children gain confidence through repetition and imitation.

- Video leads to an awareness of the culture of English-

speaking countries.

- Video represents a positive exploitation of technology.

- Video serves as a takeoff point for varied activities.29

b. Disadvantages of Using English Video

Despite there are many advantages of using English Video movies in

teaching-learning process, there are still more disadvantages of using English

videos if it is not used well, there are:

The preparations of an authentic video (English Videos) are often a

laborious process.

28

Jack Lonergan, Video in Language Teaching, (Cambridge: Cambridge University

Press, 1984). P.4 29

Susan Stempleksi and Paul Arcario, Video in Second language Teaching: Using,

Selecting, and Producing Video for the Classroom, (Alexandria: TESOL, Inc, 1992), p. 49

Page 47: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

18

Watching a motion picture for that long period can make students

tired.

It is difficult to revive interest in a second session of activity.

The types of English videos may not interest for all the students of

the class

Some students become frustrated when teachers constantly stop

and start the video.

Not all schools of the same level possess such sophisticated

equipment.

From the side of the teacher using such media requires extensive

teachers‟ preparation. It will be difficult to find the time needed for film/video

selection and lesson planning.30

It is clear that in the teaching of English through Films/Video should

be followed by good introduction since giving no guidance and explanation

can be useless, Tikton claims that using films/video in teaching of English

takes teachers‟ time.31

C. The Guidelines of Using English video in learning English

1. Selecting Material

The first step of using English videos in learning English to Improving

student‟s motivation is selecting the material, choosing the appropriate

feature video. It is important to choose the scenes that balance dialog with

degree of visual support, appropriate speech delivery, clear picture and sound

and standard accent.

19

Tomalin. 1992. “Teaching Young Children with video” in S.

Stempleski book said;

Two features dominate the criteria for selecting video materials for

children: wacthability and completeness. First, although other

educational materials are evaluated in terms of their pedagogical value

alone, television and video programs need to be assessed from the

standpoint of their entertainment value as well. If video does not

motivate, it will not be successful. Second, the video extract must

make sense. It must be complete in self. Among teacher using video

with university-level and adult students, there is a trend toward

developing “information gap” activities in which the video content is

fragmented by manipulation of output, by suppressing sound, vision,

or color, for example. Such activities can be used to stimulate

language production at a later stage in the lesson, but children want to

be able to see and understand what going on first. Another key point

in selecting video for children is to be sure that material do not run

ahead of children‟s level of maturity or language mastery in their

native language.32

Jane Shereman said, “ selecting material, adopt a magpie approach:

look for anything that‟s interesting, attractive to the eye and linguistically

easy on the ear, or full of things that people say, do or handle in normal

life‟”33

2. The Approaches of Using English Videos in Learning English

Selecting approach depend on the teaching objectives and target of

teaching. According to Jane King in her article, Using DVD Feature Film in

the EFL Classroom, there are two approaches namely short sequence

approach and whole film approach.34

a. Short Sequence Approach

Presenting the entire feature of film has the problem of length for less

advance learners. Short sequence approach is present scene-by-scene or a

single-scene from different parts of the film.

Short sequence approach can be used for theme-based discussion. A

theme-based discussion makes students to explore relevant issue that can

develop critical thinking.

b. Whole Film Approach

If in the sequence approach present by scene per scene, the whole film

approach presents all of the entire movie features and studied as a whole.

Showing a whole of movie enhances students‟ motivation. Students

will get their confidence when they realize that understanding a movie is not

as difficult as they had originally imagined.

3. The Techniques in Learning English using English Videos

Using video as a stimulus for classroom communication usually

involves students‟ motivation and interaction in pairs or groups. And because

the video technology offers several advantages of stop/start, rewind/replay,

sound on/off, and freeze frame controls, so the teacher can present different

section of video once or several times in different ways.

There are numbers of some techniques and activities in learning

English by using English Videos. Here are the following activities in using

English Videos:

a. Freeze Frame Technique

Watch and pause the movie being played when it gets very interesting,

then the teacher as the students a number of questions about what happen next

according to their ideas.

Page 50: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

21

b. Fast Forward

This technique is by pressing the „play‟ button and then press

forwards button the video a few seconds. So some of sequence of video

movie are pass and great speed. When it is stopped, the teacher can ask

students what the extract was all abut and whether they can guess what the

characters are probably saying.35

c. Show only the Picture or “Silent Viewing”

This presentation technique involves playing the movie at the normal

speed with the sound turned down/without the sound and then asks students

to guess what is happening and what the characters are probably saying about.

After viewing, students work in small groups and discuss the question and

give the reason. When they have done, the teacher plays the video with sound

so they can cheek if they guess correctly or not.

d. Modeling

Students are doing or acting out an example of the video in front of

class. Before acting out the dialogue, students have to study the program or

dialogue that wants to imitate.36

e. Play Only at the Beginning or at the End

In this techniques the teacher shows only the beginning of a sequence

and asks the students to predict what they will see and hear later of the

story.37

In playing only at the end of the sequence, students have to discuss

what they have heard and seen on the video and suggest a probable scenario

for what happened before and explain it in front of the class.

form.

2. Acting

Acting is the implementation of the planning. In this step, the researcher

does the action in the class. He must follow the planning that is made before. In

this stage, the writer works collaboratively with the English teacher of class

VIII.10.

3. Observing

In this phase, the researcher observes the activity that happened during the

research. The observation is done when the action is being done. The researcher

also observes the multiple sources of data (quantitative and qualitative). Next, the

data are analyzed and interpreted.

4. Reflecting

In this step, the results of observation are collected and analyzed by the

researcher and the collaborator, in order to can be known whether the activity in

the classroom is appropriate to the goal planning or not. That result of analyses

will be used as source to plan the next action.

Based on the analyses, so it can be decided whether the next cycle need to

be continued or not. Meanwhile the research will be stopped if require these

criterions:

1. The result of observation has shown that the learning process is

appropriate to the planning which is decided.

2. The result of measuring motivation by using questionnaires in the end of

the cycle has shown score average > 124,7, means the motivation was

high according to the calculation of the first score student's motivation

Page 55: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

26

3. The result of Test, if there are 75% of the students who pass the KKM

scores in the end of the cycle. The KKM of SMP PGRI 1 Ciputat is 69. So,

when there are 75% of students get score 69 from the test, the next action

would be stopped, because this research was successes.

D. The Role and Position of the Researcher

In this research, the researcher has a role as a planner of the research

activity and a research conductor. The researcher makes a planning of the activity,

doing the activity, observing, collecting and analyzing the data, and reporting the

research finding.

E. Action Research

This research is begun with the introduction and continued to the 1st cycle.

After analyzing and reflecting in the 1st cycle, the research will be continued to the

2nd

cycle and so on. The description of classroom action research described as

follow:

Planning

After identifying the students‟ problem in learning English through

observing and interviewing, the writer prepares the whole aspects related to CAR

such as structured observation sheet, questionnaire and interview Instrument, the

field notes, and the evaluation test including pre-test, post-test 1, and post-test 2.

also analyze the observation data and the students‟ motivation score based on the

criteria of success and score of pre-test and post-test based on KKM. If the first

cycle is unsuccessful, the writer will make the next cycle concerning re-planning,

re-acting, and re-observing to solve unfinished or new students‟ problems found.

F. Kind and Resource of the Data

1. Data resource

The data resources of this study are students, teachers, and school

documents.

2. Kind of the data

There are qualitative and quantitative data used in this study. Qualitative

data are interview result, observation result, and documentations. Quantitative

data are the result of students‟ test, the result of questionnaire.

G. Instrument in Data Collecting

1. Observation form

Observation form, which is used to know the class situation during the

teaching learning process concerning the students‟ participation which includes

interesting in learning English, preparing media and source for learning, paying

attention to the teacher, answering the teacher‟ question, responding the teachers‟

Page 58: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

29

field notes for the teacher to make note other important activities which is not

included in the observation form.

2. Interview instrument for students and teacher

In interview for the teacher, the researcher interviewed the English teacher

of Class VIII.10 twice. In the first, the writer had interview with the English

teacher before the Classroom Action Research done. The goal was to know the

situation during teaching learning activities, the teacher‟s technique, method and

media in teaching English, and also to know the students‟ motivation, ability, and

skills in English. The last interview was done after the researcher finished the

Classroom Action Research processes. Interview for the students is done at first to

know the situation of class and learning activities and the end of cycle to know the

students‟ respond to the research activity in the classroom.

3. Questionnaire of students‟ motivation

Questionnaire was given to the students in the first of this research, and at

the end in every cycle, to know the students‟ motivation in learning English.

Questionnaire consists 34 items. The 34 item includes; the seven characteristics of

motivated learned; positive task orientation, ego involvement, need for

achievement, high aspirations, goal orientation, perseverance, and tolerance of

ambiguity. For scoring each item has 1 until 5 point depends on criteria of scoring

motivation.

There are criteria of scoring motivation:

a. For the positive criteria: 1 = very disagree, 2 = disagree, 3 = doubtful,

4 = agree, and 5 = very agree.

b. For the negative criteria: 1 = very agree, 2 = agree, 3 = doubtful, 4 =

disagree and 5 = very disagree.

4. Test

The test was done to know the achievement of the students in learning

English before and after implementing the English videos. The test is divided into

Page 59: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

30

three kinds, namely pre-test, post-test 1, and post-test 2. The pre-test, the

researcher was taken from the previous daily tests. The post-test1 the test consists

of 25 items concerning on present perfect tense. The 25 items above are divided

into three parts. The first part consists of 8 items for Multiple Choice (change the

verbs into Past Participle forms). The second consists of 5 items for Fill in

(Complete this sentences into positive, negative and interrogative forms). The last

part consists of 7 items for Essay (Arrange the word to make a good sentence) and

the post-test2 consists of 15 items concerning on showing possession, making

suggestion and past continuous tense. The 15 items are divided into two parts. The

first part consists of 6 items for Fill in (Put the verb into the correct past

progressive form). And the second parts consist of 9 items for multiple choices

(Choose the correct answer to fill in the blank sentences). The post-test is held on

every final action of each cycle. For scoring, every correct answer gets one point.

The total score for the test is got from the correct answer times 100 the divide the

total correct answer. So, the total score for the test is 100 if the student can answer

all the questions correctly. The lattice test could be seen in the appendix 10 and

appendix 11.

H. Technique of Data Collecting

Data is collected by interviewing the teacher and the subject of this study,

giving the test to the students in every cycle, giving questionnaire of motivation to

students, and observing the students in learning process.

The result in every observation will be discussed by the researcher with

the teacher when analyzing the data to prepare an action for the next cycle.

I. Technique of Data Analysis

There are two data in this research; they are qualitative and quantitative

data. The qualitative data get from observation form and interview, while

quantitative get from questioner and test.

For qualitative data, the writer analyzes the observations from that were

filled during the process of classroom action research in each meeting. For

Page 60: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

31

interview‟s data, the writer also makes analysis between the teacher and students

interview before and after the Classroom action research was done.

In analyzing the quantitative data, especially test, the writer puts on the

average students‟ tests score per cycle, and the students who pass the KKM score.

It is used to know the students‟ improvement score as a whole in understanding of

material in learning English. In analyzing the data, the writer used the formula

below40

:

X : Mean

x : Individual score

n : Number of students

P : The class percentage

F : Total percentage score

N : Number of students

J. Technique of Trustworthiness

Throughout the process of data collection and analysis, the researcher

needs to make sure that findings and interpretations are accurate. The researcher

determines the accuracy or credibility of the findings through strategies below:

1. Triangulation is the process of corroborating evidence from different

individuals, types of data or methods of data collection in descriptions and

themes in the research.

2. Member checking is a process in which the researcher asks one or more

participants in the study to check the accuracy of the account. The

40

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

Page 61: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

32

researcher asks about many aspects of the study, such as whether the

description is complete and realistic, if the themes are accurate to include,

and if the interpretations are fair and representative.

In order to get valid data, the instrument to evaluate must be valid too.

Therefore, before being used in this study, the test and the questionnaire

instrument should be tested in order to know and measure the validity and

reliability of the instrument.

a. Validity

To know the validity of the questionnaire instrument and test the writer

use the formulation of Pearson’s product moment from as follow:41

rxy = Nxy – (x) (y)

Nx2 - (x)

2Ny

2 - (y)

2

rxy = instrument validity

N = number of respondent

x = score of the test item

y = total score

After validities test, in questioner, from 50 items of questioner there is 16

items not valid. They are items number 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 25, 27, 31, 35,

37, 38, 44, and 46. In test, the post-test1 from 40 items of test, there is 18 items

not valid. There are items number 1, 9, 11, 12, 15, 16, 17, 18, 21, 22, 25, 26, 30,

33, 34, 36, 38 and 40. And the post-test2 from 20 item of test, there is 5 items not

valid. There are items number 7, 8, 9, 14 and 17. It is not valid because have

rhitung ≤ r tabel. It could be seen in the appendix 21, 22 and 23.

Rosdakarya, 2006), p. 72

Page 62: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

33

b. Reliability

To know the reliability of the questionnaire instrument and the test the

writer use the formulation of alpha cronbach as follow:42

k 1- i2

r 11 = k- 1 2

r 11 = instrument reliability

k = the number of valid item

i2

= number of variant score in each item

2

= total of variant

The formulation of variant is:

2 = (

22 ..

N

xf

N

xf

2 = variant

x = number of data score

(x)2 = quadrate of number of data score

N = number of data

After doing the calculation of reliability, obtained the coefficient of

reliability from questioner is 0.82, post test 1 is 0.86 and post test 2 is 0.57. It

could be seen in the appendix 26, 27 and 28.

Rammers et.al. (1960) As quoted by Dr. Sumarna Surapranata in his

books, the coefficient of reliability 0.5 can be used for purposes of the research.

According to Rammers the standard tests for measuring the education, generally

has a coefficient of reliability at least 0.8 for the suitable population.43

34

K. Criterion of the Action Success

This criterion is used to decide whether this research is success or not. The

research will succeed if there are 75% of the students who pass the KKM scores

from the pre-test until the third Post-test in cycle II, the KKM of SMP PGRI 1 is

6944

. So, when there are 75% of students get score 69 from the test and 75% of

the students were in high motivation score. It means that this research is success,

because to know improvement of students‟ motivation in learning English, we

must to know the improvement the result of learning English before. Afterward,

the next action would be stopped, but if this condition has not been reached yet,

the alternative action would be done in the next cycle.

CHAPTER IV

RESEARCH FINDING

In this part, the writer presents the data that have been collected. It is

divided into three parts, the data before implementing the Classroom Action

Research, the implementation of the action, and the discussion of the data after

Classroom Action Research.

A. Before Implementing the Action

There are three parts related to before implementing the action. Those are pre-

observation, pre-interview, and pre-questioner. The explanations as follow:

1. The Result of Pre Observation

The teacher suggested the writer to observe the process teaching

learning in English class. It was held on class VIII.10 at SMP PGRI 1 Ciputat,

there are 42 members of students. The pre observation was held on Friday, 29th

April, 2011 with one meeting two hours of lessons. It was started at 10.00 A.M

and finished at 11.20 A.M. Results of pre-study are as follows:

The writer found that some students were not in the classroom, when the

teacher enters the classroom. When the teacher would start the lesson, students

seemed very noisy and talkative with their friends and students did not

attention to the teacher which has stayed in class, they looked not interested in

learning English. Learning process in the classroom was passive. This is

shown; when teacher made question on whiteboard, the students did not pay

directly answer when asked by the teacher, only a few students who want to

wrote their own answers the question on the whiteboard without asked first,

students did not want to asked about the material was not yet understood.

Students were less enthusiastic in following the English lesson. This is

characterized by a lack of students who dared to wrote their own answers the

Page 65: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

36

question to the front of the class and most students did not understand the

material given by the teacher, because the teacher didn‟t give them interesting

activity.

2. The Result of Pre Interview

a. Interview of Teacher

Based on the interview to the English teacher of VIII.10 of SMP PGRI

1 Ciputat, Mr. Even Apriyansyah conducted by the writer in 29th

April 2011, it

was started at 1.00 P.M and finished at 1.45 P.M. It is known that he found

some problems in teaching English. The students‟ motivation was very low.

Many students didn‟t give attention to the teacher. Because teachers only use

white board to teaching English and never gives any media or teaching aids.

So, it made the students feel not interested in learning English. And they also

didn‟t do their task before he said that he would give a punishment if they

didn‟t do their task.

From this interview, it is also known that the English teacher never

gives any teaching aids in teaching English except the whiteboard. So, it made

the students feel bored.

b. Interview of Student

Pre Interview was held on Friday, 29th

May 2011, started at 1.45 P.M

and finished at 2.30 P.M. Based on the interviews conducted by the writer to

the three students of VIII.10 of PGRI 1 Ciputat consist of 1 male and 2

female student. It was found that some students are not motivated to learn

English because they taught that learning English is very difficult and boring.

Never use any teaching aids in learning English except the white board and

books.

The students of VIII.10 of SMP PGRI 1 Ciputat have some problems

in learning English. Most of them didn‟t understand of the teacher

explanation. They cannot do their task well, so they sometimes give up when

they have difficulties in doing the task. They also often didn‟t pay attention to

the teacher because the classroom is very noisy.

Page 66: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

37

From this interview, there are still many students having low

motivation in learning English because of the classroom condition, the

teacher‟s method and media in teaching English.

Picture 4.1

Interview of Student

3. The Result of Pre Questioner

The pre questioner had been done before the Classroom Action

Research. It was conducted on Friday, 29th

April 2011. It started at 10.40 A.M

and finished at 11.20 A.M. There were 34 questions multiple-choice,

Before the students carried out the questioner, the writer had done the

trustworthiness of the test using validity and reliability, from 50 questions; 34

questions valid and 16 questions invalid. It could be seen in the appendix.

Then give students questionnaire. This activity aims to measure the

first score of students‟ motivation in learning English that will be compared

with students' motivation scores at the end of each cycle. The result of pre

questioner students‟ motivation in learning English is presented in the table

According to the table above, the data showed that the mean of pretest was

58.92. From 40 students, there were only 11 students who got the score above the

criterion of minimum completeness (KMM) 69. From that investigating, the

writer founded the result of test is low because many students didn‟t give attention

to the teacher. They also didn‟t do their task before the teacher said that he would

give a punishment if they didn‟t do their task students because they are also still

unconfident and fear in making mistake in learning English

B. The Implementation of Classroom Action Research

After knowing the data from observation and interview above, the

researcher knew that the students had some difficulties and problems in learning

English, such as the teaching learning activity in the classroom was under

controlled and conducive, the students act nicely and not noisy, only some

students who did not concentrate and pay attention to the teacher‟s explanation so

it made them difficult in understanding the lesson, because students feel bored

when the English teacher never used other method and never give any media in

teaching English.

The teacher also had a problem when he taught English in the classroom.

The problem was the background knowledge of the students was different each

other, the students felt bored and not interest in studying English. To overcome

the problem, the researcher used English Videos in teaching English to support

the teaching-learning process.

In research implementation, the writer arranged the test and the questioner.

The test is aimed to measure the students understanding of learning English and

The questioner is aimed to measure the students‟ Motivation in learning English.

After knowing the result of pre test and pre-questioner, the writer then prepared

the cycle, in this research the writer made two cycles. Each cycle consists of four

steps; they are planning, acting, observing, and reflecting. After doing each cycle,

the writer conducted test and questioner in the end of each cycle to know the

Page 71: IMPROVING STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION IN LEARNING ENGLISH BY

42

improvement of the students‟ motivation in learning English by using English

videos.
