Keywords: Simple Present Tense, Inductive Instruction, Deductive Instruction. This research examined the use of inductive instruction in teaching simple present tense. Using inductive instruction gives opportunity to students in identifying the rule or formula of simple present tense before their teacher explain the rule itself. The objective of this research is to get the empirical data of the differences between students’ score of simple present tense who were taught inductively and students’ score of simple present tense who were taught deductively, and to know how effective inductive instruction in teaching simple present tense. The method that used in this research is a quasi experimental study. The population of this research is students at the seventh grade of SMP Islam Bait Al-Rahman. The subject of this research are VII-A and VII-C, in which VII-A was chosen as the control class and VII-C as the experimental class.

The result of of data analysis by using t-test showed the value of to is 2.6

with degree of freedom 54 in significant degrees 0.05 (5%), and tt is -1.674. It

means that to tt (to is higher than tt). On the other hand, the null hypothesis (Ho) is

rejected, and alternatif hypothesis (Ha) is accepted. It should be indicated that

inductive instruction is an effective instruction in teaching simple present tense, but in this research both experimental class and control class were getting the improvement in post-test score. The score were different on 5 point only. Therefore, both inductive instruction and deductive instruction are effective instructions in teaching simple present tense.

Background of the Study

Grammar is one of the sub-skills that influence our progress in learning English. Grammar can help us to understand any kind of texts or sentences that we hear or read. Learning grammar means that we learn about the structure of the English and knowing the parts of grammar itself that can help us to make sentences in written or spoken. Michael Swan stated that it is possible in communicating successfully if the students know how to build and use certain structures. Also without knowing that matters, they would not make comprehensible sentences.1 It showed that grammar is needed to be taught. Therefore, students have to learn grammar first before they construct or make a sentence.

It is needed to use instruction in teaching. As Penny said that instruction is one of the explanation aspects that is very important in teaching.2 It will help students in learning grammar. It can make them easier to learn grammar. It should be suitable based on the material of grammar that teacher want to teach. There are two kinds of instruction that can be applied in teaching grammar. Those are deductive and inductive instruction.

Deductive and inductive instructions in teaching grammar are different. The commonly used of instruction in teaching grammar is deductive instruction. In using deductive instruction means that the teacher should give the rules of the patterns that he/she wants to teach. This kind of instruction is adapted from Grammar Translation Method that has become one of its

principal characteristics.3 In inductive instruction teacher should give the examples of the patterns that he/she want to teach before giving guidance to identify the rules to the students. Inductive instruction is one of the principles and procedures in Direct Method.4 Both deductive and inductive instruction usually applied in teaching tenses.

It is needed to teach tenses, such as simple present tense. Simple present tense is one of the parts that have to be learned in grammatical matter. Having the problems in learning grammar make the students confused and caused them making mistakes to use it in a sentence properly. Moreover, simple present tense is needed to be learned in order to understand kinds of texts such as descriptive and procedural text. Those kinds of texts are taught at the first grade of junior high school in Indonesia.

In learning simple present tense, the teachers teach about the concord or agreement in simple present tense. There are two kinds of concords in simple present tense; concord for the singular and plural of subjects and verbs. In learning simple present tense the students are expected to know the concept that their teacher taught about its tense.

Based on the interview with the English teacher at SMP Islam Bait Al-Rahman, it was found some problems that students faced in learning English. First, beside students should learn English, they also have to learn the others subject. It makes them hard to recall the material that their teacher explained before if they do not practice or review the material that they learned at that time. Second, they are confused in differentiating kind of concord or agreement in learning simple present tense. They do not understand which subjects that have to use the auxiliaries of “do and does”. It caused them difficult to make sentences of simple present tense. Third, sometimes the teacher does not use the appropriate instruction and arrange the material creatively in teaching grammar. Arranging the material to be more interesting can build students’ motivation in learning. That is why teacher should be

3 Jack C. Richards and Theodore S. Rodgers, Approaches and Methods in Language Teaching Second Edition. (New York: Cambridge University Press, 1986) p. 4.

more creative in arranging the material. Therefore, these factors affect students difficult to use simple present tense in sentences properly.

To solve the students’ problems in learning grammar, it proposed one instruction in teaching grammar, it is inductive instruction. By using inductive instruction in teaching grammar, it has to give the examples first then explain the rules of simple present tense. In addition, inductive instruction will help students in memorizing the form of the sentence without its formulas. Based on the reasons above, it was conducted an experimental study in teaching grammar which the title is “The Effectiveness of Inductive

Instruction in Teaching Simple Present Tense” (A Quasi Experimental Study at the Seventh Grade of SMP Islam Bait Al-Rahman)”.

B.

Identification of the Problem

Based on the background study above, the problems are identified as follows:

1. Students do not have much time to practice or review the material that their teacher explained before because they have to learn the others subject (beside English).

2. The students are confused in using concord or agreement of simple present tense.

3. Teacher does not use the appropriate technique/instruction in teaching simple present tense.

C.

Limitation of the Problem

Based on the identification of the problems above, the problem is limited on the effectiveness of inductive instruction in teaching simple present tense.

D.

Formulation of the Problem

The problem is formulated to answer the question “Is using inductive instruction effective in teaching simple present tense?”

E.

The Purpose of the Study

The purpose of this study is to know how effective the inductive instruction in teaching simple present tense.

F.

The Significance of the Study

The result of this study is expected to be useful to give benefit both theoretically and practically:

1. For the teachers

This study is expected to give information about the appropriate technique/instruction in teaching tenses, especially simple present tense. 2. For the students

This study is expected to help them in improving their understanding about the usage of simple present tense. Thus, they can use simple present tense in their sentences properly.

3. For other researchers

The result of this study is expected to give other resources of the studies. This study can help them in conducting the related research.

Simple Present Tense

1.

The Concept of Simple Present Tense

Grammar is one of the important aspects in sub-skills that should be learned. Fatel and Jain stated that “Grammar is a scientific statement of the principles of good usage which concerns with the relation of words in the sentence”.1

Learning grammar can help students to be able to make good sentences with using the appropriate usages of words. It can also help them in creating better sentences to communicate with others in speaking or writing.

One of the scopes which are included in grammar is tense. Tense is used to know when the activity happens. There are many kinds of tenses in English; one of them is simple present tense.

Simple present expresses the habitual events or situations that exist always, usually, habitually; they exist now, have existed in the past, and probably will exist in the future.2 Simple present is used in expressing our activities habitually, or explaining people that exist in our life, or describing the things around us.

There are concords in making sentences of simple present tense. According to Leech and Starvick, “Grammatical concord means that certain grammatical items agree with each other”.3

Concord is also called as agreement. Concord or agreement is used to distinguish both singular and plural of the subject and also to make the verbs agree as the subjects in

number.4 Indeed, it is needed to know the concords in making sentences of simple present tense.

2.

The Form of Simple Present Tense

a. Affirmative Statement

Affirmative statement in simple present tense is formed by adding –s or –es at ending of the verb for the third singular person; he, she, it (as Cowan stated that simple present is formed –s inflections on the verbs of the third person singular)5, but for the first or second singular or plural person do not need to add –s or –es at ending of their verb. The formulas as follows:

* First/second singular/plural person

* Third singular person For example:

1) I read a novel everyday. 2) You read a novel everyday. 3) We read a novel everyday. 4) They read a novel everyday. 5) He reads a novel everyday. 6) She reads a novel everyday.

There are three forms of the present form of to be; am, are, and are. These forms are used to substitute verb, or usually called as a nominal sentence. Nominal sentence is a sentence that has no verb. It is replaced by describing the complement of sentence. The complement of sentence is usually a noun, an adjective, or an adverb of place or time. The formula is:

Subject + Verb1 + (....)

I am

You He

We are She is

They It

For example:

1) I am a student. (Noun) 2) You are a teacher. (Noun) 3) He is diligent. (Adjective) 4) She is clever. (Adjective)

5) They are at the second floor. (Adverb of place) 6) We are in the kitchen. (Adverb of place) b. Negative Statement

Negative statement in simple present tense is formed by adding do not and does not before the infinitive of the verb. The formulas as follows:

* First/second singular/plural person

* Third singular person For example:

1) I do not read a novel everyday. 2) You do not read a novel everyday. 3) We do not read a novel everyday. 4) They do not read a novel everyday. 5) He does not read a novel everyday. 6) She does not read a novel everyday.

In the negative sentence of simple present tense of to be is formed by adding not after to be itself. The formula is:

S + to be + Complement  You are a

   

Subject + do not + Verb1 + (....)

For example:

1) I am not a student. (Noun) 2) You are not a teacher. (Noun) 3) He is not diligent. (Adjective) 4) She is not clever. (Adjective)

5) They are not at the second floor. (Adverb of place) 6) We are not in the kitchen. (Adverb of place) c. Interrogative Statement

Interrogative statement in simple present tense is formed by adding do or does at the first place in a sentence. The formula is:

* First/second singular/plural person

* Third singular person For example:

1) Do you read a novel everyday? 2) Do we read a novel everyday? 3) Do they read a novel everyday? 4) Does he read a novel everyday? 5) Does she read a novel everyday?

In the interrogative sentence of simple present tense of to be is formed by adding to be at the first place in a sentence. The formula is:

For example:

1) Are you a teacher? (Noun)

2) Are they at the second floor? (Adverb of place) 3) Are we in the kitchen? (Adverb of place)

S + to be + not + Complement 

   

Do + Subject + Verb1 + (....)?

Does + Subject + Verb1 + (....)?

To be + S + Complement 

   

d. Adverb of Frequency

Adverbs of frequency modify verbs or adjectives. Adverbs of frequency tell us how often the activities happen. The adverbs of frequency are always, usually, often, sometimes, rarely, and never. Those adverbs are used in simple present tense to indicate frequency. Here are the examples and the percentage of time of adverbs of frequency:6

1) I always walk in the morning. 100 % 2) Julia usually walks in the morning.

3) We often walk in the morning. 4) You sometimes walk in the morning. 5) Mel and Sue rarely walk in the morning.

6) Satoshi never walks in the morning. 0 %

Commonly, adverbs of frequency are put after to be or before all other verbs. For example:

1) Ted is always late. 2) Susan always comes late. e. The Rules of Spelling

There are additional of –s and –es for singular pronouns’ verbs. Here are the rules of the final –s and –es:

1) For verbs end in voiceless (f, k, p, t), add –s to the simple form. Its pronunciation becomes /s/.

For example:

- He likes coffee. - He works. - It sleeps.

2) For verbs end in voiced (b, d, g, l, m, n, r, v) or vowels, add –s to the simple form. Its pronunciation becomes /z/.

6

For example: - He swims. - She reads. - He runs.

3) For the verbs end in ch, sh, s, x, z*, add –es to the simple form. Its pronunciation becomes /iz/.

*Verbs that end in dge, as in judge, add only –s but are pronounced with /iz/ at the end.

For example:

- She watches TV. - He dresses.

- It finishes at 10:00.

4) For the verbs end in consonant + y, drop y, and add –ies to the simple form. Its pronunciation becomes /z/.

For example:

- He worries a lot. - The baby cries at night. - She hurries to work.

5) For the verbs end in vowel + y, add –s to the simple form. Its pronunciation becomes /z/.7

For example:

- He plays football. - She stays at home. - He buys food.

3.

The Usage of Simple Present Tense

Some experts argued the usages of simple present tense. Cowan stated that simple present tense can express states, habitual action, general statements of fact or scientific truths and future action.8

7

Ibid. p. 68. 8

For examples:

1) The cloud looks like cloudy. (states)

2) Randu goes for a walk every Sunday. (habitual action) 3) The sun rises in the east. (general statement of fact) 4) Roni leaves at 07.00 p.m. (future action)

Cowan also stated that simple present occurs when commentators in running commentary of what he or she is watching.

Bechkamhas _{the ball and ....he}lets _{it fly....}

As Cowan’s statement, Broukal also stated that simple present is used to describe repeated actions or habits, talk about things that are always or generally true,describe a permanent situation or a condition with no definite start or finish but that is true now. And she added, simple present tense is also used to say how often we do something, when it is used with adverb of frequency (or using to be in adverb of frequency).9 Those are the usages of simple present tense.

B.

Inductive Instruction

1.

The Concept of Inductive Instruction

There are some arguments about the meaning of inductive instruction. According to Thornbury, inductive instruction is generalizing the rule discovered by students.10The one who is generalizing the formula or the rule is student, without teacher’s help. His argument shows that students are expected to increase their autonomy. But, Moutone stated that by using inductive instruction teachers give the examples of the patterns and guide students to identify the concept rule of the patterns.11Also, Allen and Valetteadded, after giving the examples at the first presentation the students practice the form in sentences and they are guided to generalize the grammatical point in structure that teacher had

given.12 Those arguments can be concluded that in using inductive instruction in teaching grammar either teachers state the rule to the students or students identify the rule by themselves.

2.

Procedure of Inductive Instruction in Teaching Simple

Present Tense

According to Allen and Valette, there are three steps of implementation in teaching grammar inductively:

a. The examples’ presentation

When teachers use inductive instruction in teaching grammar, they should give the examples at the first time before giving the formula or rule. They give some examples that make sense or contextual in order to make students can understand that matter easily.

b. Oral or written practice

After teachers give the examples of the pattern that they teach at that time, students practice to make other examples of the pattern that they learn.

c. Identifying the rule of pattern

It can be teachers that state the rule and guide their students in identifying the rule, or students can formulate the rule by themselves.13

Here is the example of teaching simple present tense by using inductive instruction:

Ieatbread.

Subject + Verb1 + Object Youeatbread. Subject + Verb1 + Object

Weeatbread.

Subject + Verb1 + Object

12 Edward David Allen and Rebecca M. Valette, Classroom Techniques: Foreign Languages and English as a Second Language, (New York: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1977), p. 90.

Theyeatbread. Subject + Verb1 + Object

Heeatsbread.

Subject + Verb1(s) + Object Sheeatsbread.

Subject + Verb1(s) + Object Iteatsbread.

Subject + Verb1(s) + Object

3.

The Advantages and Disadvantages of Teaching Simple

Present Tense Inductively

Thornbury stated that there are some of advantages and disadvantages in teaching grammar inductively:

a. Advantages:

1) Using inductive instruction makes rules become more meaningful, memorable, and serviceable.

2) Using inductive instruction can ensure students’ cognitive depth, i.e. in memorizing.

3) Students become more active in teaching and learning process. 4) Inductive instruction is suggested for students who like challenging

activity as pattern recognition and problem solving.

5) Inductive instruction makes extra language practices if can be done collaboratively and in target language.

6) Inductive instruction prepares students’ autonomy. b. Disadvantages:

1) Using inductive instruction can spend more time in teaching and learning process.

2) The time spent can make less practice for the students to make other examples of the pattern.

3) Students can be wrong if identifying the rule without guidance by their teachers.

4) Inductive instruction can place heavy demands in planning lesson for teachers.

5) Inductive instruction can frustrate students who prefer like to be told the rule.14

C.

Deductive Instruction

1.

The Concept of Deductive Instruction

Deductive instruction is adopted since GTM (Grammar Translation Method) used. In GTM, grammar is taught deductively.15 It means that teacher gives the rules of the grammar, and explains with the examples of the sentence that they are learning. And they will practice by using the rules that teacher had given. As Thornbury said deductive instruction is giving the examples in which the application of the rules that teacher explains at the first presentation of the lesson.16 Deductive instruction is also called as rule-driven learning or explicit instruction.

2.

Procedure of Deductive Instruction in Teaching Simple

Present Tense

Allen and Valette stated that there are three steps of teaching grammar deductively:

a.

Statement of the rule or pattern

At the first presentation, teachers state the rule or the pattern that they want to teach to their students. It can be written or oral.

b.

Imitation of the sentence that teachers give in example

After teachers state the rule and give the examples in a sentence, students make the other sentence by themselves which is based on the rule that teachers stated.

14 Thornbury, op. cit,, p. 54.

15 Jack C. Richards and Theodore S. Rodgers, Approaches and Methods in Language Teaching Second Edition, (New York: Cambridge University Press, 1986), p. 4.

c.

Practice the new pattern

When understanding the pattern or rule, students are expected to do more practice about that new pattern. Therefore they can memorize the rule and easy to make sentences in written or oral.17

The examples of simple present that is taught deductively; teacher gives the rule first:

The formula Subject + Verb1 (s/es) + Object

Then teacher explains about the rule: what are subject, verb, and object. And he gives the examples, for instance:

I drive a car. He drives a car. You drive a car. She drives a car. We drive cars. It drives a car. They drive cars.

On the other hand, students have to remember the rule of simple present tense to practice their writing in the exercises.

3.

The Advantages and Disadvantages of Teaching Simple

Present TenseDeductively

Thornbury stated that there are some of advantages and disadvantages in teaching grammar deductively:

a. Advantages:

1) Deductive instruction can save teachers’ time in teaching because it gets straight to the point.

2) For adult students, deductive instruction respects their intelligence and maturity, also admits their language acquisition of cognitive process’ role.

3) For the students who have an analytical learning style, it confirms their expectation about teaching and learning process in classroom.

17

4) Using deductive instruction makes teacher easier in explaining language points that he/she wants to teach.

b. Disadvantages:

1) Using deductive instruction make students – especially young students – difficult to understand the concept of grammatical matter that their teacher explains to them. It caused of not having knowledge of grammar terminology.

2) Using deductive instruction caused teaching and learning process become teacher-centered. The teacher is more active than his/her students in class.

3) In using deductive instruction, rare of students that can memorize the explanation of their teacher’s presentation.

4) Using deductive instruction can judge that learning a language just about knows the rules.18

D.

Previous Study

There are summaries of previous studies which related to the instruction in teaching grammar. The firstresearch is The Comparative Study of Using Deductive and Inductive Techniques in Teaching Present Continuous Tense (A Case Study in MTs. Syafi’iyah Pulorejo Ngoro Jombang East Java) written by Zakiyatul Fuadah. Based on the analysis of t-test, her research showed that there is no significant difference to students’ achievement in learning present tense by using both inductive and deductive technique at the seventh grade of MTs. Syafi’iyah Pulorejo Ngoro Jombang East Java.19

The second is Deductive vs Inductive Teaching Approaches to EFL Grammar Instruction (A Case Study of Chinese High School) written by Haoge Wang.His study is an experimental research. He took 30 participants of China High School. From 30 students are divided into two groups; one is

taught by deductive instruction, and the other is taught by deductive instruction. They learned adverbial clauses: adverbial clause of time, place, reason and result, purpose, condition, concession, manner and comparison respectively. He also gave pre-test and post test to the students. The result of the study indicated that inductive instruction is more effective and has more positive benefits in learning that deserve students and teachers’ preference.20

The third previous study is Deductive and inductive method in teaching passive English construction (A Study at STKIP YPUP Makassar). The analysis data – which were obtained through questionnaires, observation, interview and test – showed there is significant difference on grammar improvement in test score after using deductive method. On the other hand, deductive method is more effective to improve students of STKIP YPUP

Makassar in their English grammar especially English passive construction.21 The last is annals from Haight, Herron and Cole which the title is The Effects of Deductive and Guided Inductive Instructional Approaches on the Learning of Grammar in the Elementary Foreign Language College Classroom. They used quasi-experimental on their research. They took 47 of 2nd semester French students. They taught French grammar about adverbial pronoun en [some, any], adverbial pronoun y [there], indirect object pronouns, imperative + pronouns, verb with a + indirect object plaire[to please/be pleasing to], relative pronoun, demonstrative pronouns and partitive articles. They taught the class in two conditions: deductive section and inductive section for each French grammar. The result of the study showed that inductive instruction is more effective in teaching grammar in the beginning level foreign language classroom.22

The fourth is A Comparison between the Effectiveness of Inductive and Deductive Instruction in the L2 English Classroom in a L1 Dutch Environment written by Berense. He implied the study based on experimental research mixed comparative research. He took 54 participants which were divided into two groups; a deductively taught group and an inductively taught group with respectively 28 and 26 pupils. He taught simple past and simple present. He gave pre-test and post test. He also gave questionnaires to get the additional data. The result of this study showed that deductive instruction is more effective when teaching simple past tense and simple present.23 It was almost same as Berense’s research that used simple present tense in applying inductive and deductive instruction. But it was used experimental research mixed comparative research. In the end, he described the data in comparing students’ motivation, gender, and age. Different from his research, this research was used only the data of students’ scores of pre-test and post-test.

E.

Conceptual Framework

Grammar is one of the sub-skills that can improve students’ ability in English. Learning grammar can help students improve their ability in writing and speaking. They can make good writing and communication. Therefore, it is needed to learn grammar.

In Indonesia, grammar has been taught in certain level of students, e.g. in junior high school. In their level, they are taught simple present tense. Simple present tense is taught to help them in understanding kinds of texts that should be learned; descriptive and procedural text.

It is difficult to learn grammar. Therefore, teachers should be more creative and selective to use technique to make their students’ learning become easier. There are many kinds of techniques or instruction that can be applied in teaching grammar. One of the instructions is inductive instruction.

Esther Berendse, A Comparison between the Effectiveness of Inductive and Deductive Instruction in the L2 English Classroom in a L1 Dutch Environment, Bachelor Thesis English Language and Culture, Utrecht University, 2012.

Inductive instruction is an instruction in which the teachers give the examples at the first presentation and guide their student to identify the rule in example of sentence that their teacher gave, or students can identify the rule by themselves.

Based on the explanation above, it was believed that using inductive instruction in teaching simple present tense can give the students’ improvement. Therefore, it would be conducted a study of using inductive instruction in teaching simple present tense.

Research Hypotheses

Ho : It is not effective to use inductive instruction in teaching simple

present tense at the seventh grade students of SMP Islam Bait Al-Rahman.

Ha : It is effective to use inductive instruction in teaching simple

present tense at the seventh grade students of SMP Islam Bait Al-Rahman.

A.

Place and Time of the Research

This study was conducted at SMP Islam Bait Al-Rahman that is located on Jl. Duren Tiga Selatan VII, Pancoran Jakarta-Selatan. The time of this research was from February 2013 up to April 2014.

B.

Method and Research Design

The method of the research is a quantitative research. The design of the research is a quasi-experimental research to take two classes in conducting the research; control class and experimental class. The control class was taught simple present tense using deductive instruction and the experimental class was taught simple present tense by giving treatment of inductive instruction.

C.

Population and Sample

The population of this research was the seventh grade students of

SMP Islam Bait Al-Rahman. The sample of the research was taken purposively by giving simple present tense test to get two classes who have the equal ability.1 Based on the test’s result, it was chosen VII-A as the control class and VII-C as the experimental class.

D.

Technique of Data Collection

The data of this research was collected by giving tests. The tests were pre-test and post-test. But, it was conducted validity test in MTs. N. 23 Jakarta before giving test to the seventh grade students of SMP Islam

Bait Al-Rahman. It was used Anates Software in analyzing the questions in validity test that can be used in pretest. After that, pre-test was conducted in the first meeting at the two classes in which the purpose is to decide

1 Bruce L. Berg, Qualitative Research Methods for the Social Science, (Boston: Pearson Education, 2001), p. 32

control class and experimental class. Next, the two classes were given the different treatment – control class was taught simple present tense by deductive instruction and experimental class by inductive instruction – in four meetings. Then, post-test was given at the last meeting at control class and experimental class.

E.

Techniques of Data Analysis

The data of this research were analyzed by using t-test formula which is adapted by SuharsimiArikunto, as follows:2

= ∑

=mean of gained score of control class

∑ = gained score of control class = number of students of control class

₌ (∑ )

=mean of gained score of experimental class

∑ = gained score of experimental class = number of students of experimental class

∑ = ∑ – ∑

∑ = deviation of control class

∑ = squared of control class’ gained score ∑ = gained score of control class

= number of students of control class

2 Suharsimi Arikunto, Prosedur Penelitian Suatu Pendekatan Praktik Edisi Revisi VI, (Jakarta: PT Rineka Cipta, 2006), p.311.

∑ = ∑ – ∑

∑ = deviation of experimental class

∑ = squared of experimental class’ gained score

∑ = gained score of experimental class = number of students of experimental class

√ Ʃ Ʃ

= value of hypotheses testing

=mean of control class =mean of experimental class

∑ = standard deviation of control class

∑ = standard deviation of experimental class = number of students of control class

= number of students of experimental class

= degrees of freedom

= number of students of control class = number of students of experimental class

F.

Statistical Hypotheses

Statistically, the hypotheses are expressed as a follow: Ho : μA μB

Ha : μA μB

In which:

Ho = Null Hypothesis

μA = students’ score in learning simple present tense, who are taught

by inductive instruction.

μB = students’ score in learning simple present tense, who are taught

by deductive instruction.

The statistical hypotheses above means:

If t-test (to) t-table (tt) in significant degree of 0.05 (5%), it means

that Ha is rejected and Ho is accepted. In other word, it is not effective to

use inductive instruction in teaching simple present tense at the seventh grade students of SMP Islam Bait Al-Rahman.

If t-test (to) t-table (tt) in significant degree of 0.05 (5%), it means

that Ha is accepted and Ho is rejected. In other word, it is not effective to

use inductive instruction in teaching simple present tense at the seventh grade students of SMP Islam Bait Al-Rahman.

Data Analysis

In analyzing the data, it was used t-test to make it easier in testing the hypotheses. The formula of the t-test is as a follow:

√ Ʃ Ʃ

Before analyzing the data by using t-test formula, there are several steps that should be done as follows:

1. Determining mean of gained score of control class: = ∑

=

= 18.5

0 2 4 6 8 10 12

2. Determining mean of gained score of experimental class: = (∑ )

3. Determining deviation of control class: ∑ = ∑ – ∑

=13427–

= 13427 – 9620.04 = 3806.96

4. Determining deviation of experimental class: ∑ = ∑ – ∑

= 18991–

= 18991–

= 18991– 15984.32 = 3006.68

5. Determining value of hypotheses testing by using t-test formula:

√ Ʃ Ʃ

6. Determining degrees of freedom:

= 28 + 28 – 2 = 54

After getting the degrees of freedom, looking at t-table (tt) at the degree of

freedom 54 in significant degrees 0.05 (5 %). The t-table (tt) is -1.674.1

C.

Data Interpretation

Based on data analysis, if t-table (tt) is higher than to (2.6 -1.674), the null

hypothesis (Ho) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted. It

should be concluded that it is effective to use inductive instruction in teaching simple present tense at the seventh grade of SMP Islam Bait Al-Rahman. But, both inductive instruction and deductive instruction bring the improvement in teaching simple present tense in experimental class and control class. In fact, the students in the experimental class achieve higher score in their post-test. It can be described at figure 4.1 and 4.4 that can be compared as a follow:

1 Budi Susetyo, Statistika untuk Analisis Data Penelitian, (Bandung: PT Refika Aditama, 2010), p. 320.

Figure 4.7

The Comparison of Pre-test and Post-test in Experimental Class and Control Class

In this case the post-test score in experimental class and control class are different on 5 point only. If looking to the control class improvement, it was getting 18 point of range of pretest and post-test. And for the experimental class, it was getting 24 point of range of pretest and post-test. It can be inferred that both experimental and control class got the improvement on test of simple present tense. Based on the range of post-test score of experimental class and control class, it can not decide that inductive instruction is the only instruction that effective in teaching simple present tense. In other word, there is no significance different between using inductive instruction and deductive instruction on test of simple present tense at seventh grade of SMP Islam Bait Al-Rahman.

Indeed - during the observation of teaching and learning process - students in the experiment class are more active than students in control class. As Haight, Herron and Cole statement, they said that inductive instruction has benefit to motivate students’ active role in teaching and learning process.2

Teaching simple present tense by using inductive instruction in SMP Islam

Bait Al-Rahman indicated that students in experimental class have an active role in teaching and learning process.

CHAPTER V

CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTIONS

A.

Conclusion

Grammar is one of the sub-skills that influence our progress in learning English. Grammar can help us to understand any kind of texts or sentences that we hear or read. Learning grammar means that we learn about the structure of the English and knowing the parts of grammar itself that can help us to make sentences in written or spoken. Using instruction can make learning grammar easier. There are two kinds of instruction in teaching grammar. Those are deductive and inductive instruction.

Inductive instruction is adapted from Direct Method in nineteenth century. In chapter II, it has already described about inductive instruction and simple present tense. Using inductive instruction means that teacher should give examples at the first presentation, then students should practice, and the identifying the rules can be stated by students themselves or together with the teacher.

In conducting this research, it was applied inductive instruction in teaching simple present tense at the seventh grade of SMP Islam Bait Al-Rahman. The research design of this research is a quasi-experimental study. The data was analyzed by using t-test. As the analysis of the data in the previous chapter, to tt = 2.6 -1.674 in significant degree of 0.05 (5

%). As the statistical hypotheses in chapter III, if t-test (to) t-table (tt) in

significant degree of 0.05 (5%), it means that Ha is accepted and Ho is

rejected which inductive instruction can be called as an effective instruction. But in this case, both experiment class and control class were getting the improvement in their post-test. Therefore, both inductive instruction and deductive instruction are effective to use in teaching simple present tense at the seventh grade students of SMP Islam Bait Al-Rahman.

B.

Suggestions

Based on the conclusions above, it would be given some suggestions as follows:

1. For the teachers

Inductive instruction is a suitable instruction in teaching grammar, especially simple present tense. By using inductive instruction, the students will focus on the form without giving the formulas. Also, the teachers are expected to arrange the material creatively to make students more interested in learning grammar.

2. For the students

Students should be more communicative in sharing the difficulties in learning grammar to their teacher. Therefore, teachers can solve their students’ problem in learning grammar.

3. For other researchers

Using inductive instruction in teaching simple present tense needs more time in identifying the rules, hopefully there will be further research that can solve this problem.
