2.3 Theoretical Framework of Analysis
As have been discussed above, I will conduct a quantitative research on the effectiveness of www.englishspeak.com
learning website in improving students‟ speaking skill, specifically, to prove the effectiveness of www.englishspeak.com
learning website in improving X grader students of SMA Negeri Banyumas‟ speaking skill.
Since I use an experimental design as the design of my study, the researcher‟s goal is to establish a cause and effect relationship between two
phenomena. The researcher aims to establish that one variable, the independent variable causes changes in another variable, the dependent variable.
23 This can be shown as follow:
independent variable affects dependent variable
www.englishspeak.com student‟ speaking skill
A classroom experiment of this type involves a sample of students. I will randomly assigning them to one experimental group and one control group. After
that, I do a speaking pre-test to measure how well each group perform before the treatment. Then, I provide the experimental group with a carefully planned
instructional “treatment” use the new teaching medium of www.englishspeak.com learning website the word treatment here comes from the sciences means action
or behavior toward a person, animal, etc. while the control group is taught by the conventional one. Finally, I will assess how well each group performs on the
dependent variable through a speaking post-test.

CHAPTER III RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Every researcher follows an academic method in order to manage their project well. This procedural way will lead them to achieve the goals of their project.
Hence, in this chapter, I provide the methodology. It includes research design, role of the researcher, object of the study, population and sample, research variables
and hypothesis, type of data, instrument for collecting data, method of collecting data, and method of analyzing data.
3.1 Research Design
Saleh 2005 states a research design is a specification of operations for the testing of a hypothesis under a given set of conditions. I have to select the research design
before doing the research to become a standard of activities in testing the hypothesis.
According to Arikunto 2006: 84, experimental research has a purpose to investigate whether there is an effort on doing something that is treated as the
subject of the research. In other words, an experimental research tries to observe the cause and effect relation between two phenomena.
I use experimental design for the study. The design of the experiment could be described as the following:
