class and only gave written assignments. This action can be defined as their rationalization. The students said that they are not satisfied by the teache
r’s method in teaching and it was affecting their motivation in learning English
subj ect. This statement can be the students’ excuse to show that they were
frustrated because their need of satisfaction was hard to accomplish alongside with the teacher
’s inability to motivate her students in learning. The researcher also concludes t
hat the students’ environment does not really influence the students’ motivation in mastering English language actively.
From the factors that influenced th e students’ perception, there was the
situation in which the students’ problems emerge, especially in speaking skill. The factors that would also influence the students
’ perception on their problems in speaking skill was also derived from the common problems hat might happen like
vocabulary, tenses, pronunciation and grammar which limit their ability in mastering speaking skill. However, the problems in mastering speaking skill were
not only the basic grammar and vocabulary, but also the students ’ belief in other
aspects. For example, less chance to sharpen their ability in speaking skill and their belief that the other skills were much easier than speaking spontaneously.
The students belief that they are facing difficulties in mastering speaking skill because their mental pictures of themselves determine much of what they perceive
and do. Referring to this result, the researcher tried to solve the problem by implementing Scientific Approach in class during the treatment. The aim of the
implementation itself was to give the students chance to increase their speaking
62
skill and change the students’ perception that speaking is difficult. The change of students’ attitude influenced the students’ participation in the learning activities.
The second conclusion is drawn from the results of the hypothesis testing of the pre-test and the post-test. The result showed that the
both from the teacher and the researcher indicate an observable improvement after receiving the
treatment. The researcher’s was 10.7288 and the
of the teacher was 11.0480. Those results were higher that
with the critical region of a test α 0.05 for the 28 students showed
= 1.7033. The result showed that the students improved their ability in speaking skill after receiving treatment by
implementing Scientific Approach in KTSP. The results that were written in field notes also showed that the students had more chance to practice by discussing and
communicating with their friends, that is why the teacher can try to implement Scientific Approach to give the students more chance to improve their speaking
ability.
