Language and Arts (FBS), State University of Medan (UNIMED). 2015.
This study aims to discover the effect of applying Cooperative Script
Model on students’ speaking achievement. It was conducted by using
experimental research design. The population of this research was the eleventh
graders of SMA SWASTA ERIA Medan. The samples of the research were two
classes which consisted of experimental and control group which were chosen by
using cluster sampling technique. Twelve students were taken as the samples in
each class. The experimental group appliedCooperative Script as learning model,

while the control group applied Collaborative Learning as learning model. After
analyzing the data, it was found that the value of ttable for the degree of freedom
(df) 22 at the significance 0.05 was 2.0739. The result of computing the data
analysis showed that tobs (Ma) was 6.0082. It means that tobs (Ma) was higher than
ttable (6.0082> 2.0739).The result of this study showed that Cooperative Script

CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
A. The Background of the Study
As English becomes an accepted international language, we are Indonesian
people also need to learn English. Many countries make English as their second
language because English is thekey to the International relationship in technology
and commerce. As we know technology and commerce play an important role in
every country. This fact is enough for us to learn English. We as one of the
countries who use English as foreign language need to surpress ourselves to learn
English so that we can keep up with other countries.
In international relationships, spoken English is very important in order to
communicate. We communicate mostly in spoken than written.For most people
the ability to speak a language is synonymous with knowing that language since
speech is the most basic need of human communication (Celce-Murcia, 2001).
In learning English, speaking skills is a priority for many ESL and EFL
learners. EFL or ESL learners are usually judged on their speaking abilities at first
glance. In order to make an effective teaching learning process, the teachers of
EFL learners need to find out the way to make them easier enhancing their
speaking skills.Learning focus on “how to make students learn” not “what is
student learned” (Hamzah B. Uno, 2007: 2-3).
The problem of the eleventh graders of ERIA senior high school was they
found English so unfamiliar. They were afraid to speak English. They took a long
time to pronounce every single word in English and their pronunciation were

really poor. They also lacked of vocabularies. They said their tongue was not used
to speak English, because they were rarely hear and practice English language.
They were also not confident to speak English in front of their teachers and
friends. The percentage of the eleventh graders‟ achievement on English subject is
shown on the table below.

2.0739). Therefore the
hypothesis formulated as “There is a significant effect of applying cooperative
script model on enhancing students’ speaking achievement” is accepted. It means
that cooperative script model significantly enhanced the students’ speaking
achievement.

B. Suggestion
In relation to the significant of the study, there are a few suggestions for
the teacher, students, and other researcher. The suggestions for the teachers are
they are expected to apply cooperative script model as one of the way to improve
their profesionalism on teaching the students, they are expected to find another
learning model that is appropriate for speaking class with considering the
students’ need as the guidance, and they are expected to enrich their knowledge
related to English teaching model so that they can find the appropriate learning
model for the students. The suggestion for the students is they have to participate
more in speaking class. They are suggested to enhance their pronunciatiaon,
fluency, grammar, vocabulary, and accent on speaking English by practicing to
speak frequently not only in the class but also outside the class. Outside the class
means that they are also expected to practice speaking English on their daily life.
This way they can speak more fluently and finally meet the standard based on
curriculum. The suggestion for other researchers are they are suggested to carry
out a further research related to this learning model in order to develop this
learning model and also to find another learning model that allow the students to
speak English frequently in the class.
