CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

1.1Backgroundof Study

English is an international language which is learned by many countries in the world, including Indonesia. It is obvious if English is the language that must be learned by the people, especially among students, from kindergarten to university level.

Today, many educational institutions, from elementary to higher education, held contests related to foreign language, such as debate, speech, writing, singing, poetry, reading contest, etc. These contests aim to improve their capability to mastery the target languages, especially English, both active and passive. Considering English is the international language which must be learned by students.

However, many students in Indonesia, however, especially in SMA Shalahuddin Malang, feel that English is quite difficult to learn. So, their achievement in English lesson is still very low. They need interesting media to learn English well (Wahyuni, 2009). There are some learning media that can be used to learn. They are book, television, computer, multimedia, etc. However, students feel bored to learn by using book.

Sudarmanto’s research (2005), about “A Study of Visual Aids in English Teaching

2

vegetables, got high motivation and better score to learn English at SDN Kertasada Sumenep. Proven, 30 students got high score and motivation. Even, they can memorize and understand quickly when they were explained by using visual aid. There is no student who got low and very low motivation.

Furthermore, Nadhifah’s research (2007) was about “English Learning With

Puzzle” by combining pieces of pictures for students in SMAN 5 Malang. The result was that it can improve motivation and vocabulary. 25 students in first grade get high score and their motivation rise too.

Meanwhile research that was done by Purnawan (2009) about “The Effectiveness of Visual Aids for Teaching English Vocabulary to the Second Year Students of MTs Darul Kurmain Blitar” by showing picture with English material inside, in SMA Muhammadiyah 3 Malang, showed significant change to second grade students. After using Visual Aids, they are not just spirit in learn English, but also their score higher than usual. Their average score about 70-90.

From those research, researcher inspired to make animation flash media so that students can understand and memorize English.

Based on the some research, it can be said that teaching by using media can

increase student’s achievement in learning English. Therefore, the researcher is

interested in analyzing student’s achievement in learning English and would like to offer animation flash as the learning media through classroom action research.

Learning: All changes in potential for behavior that result from experience (Lefrancois, 2000). A process of science transfer from book to learner, teacher to student or its reverse.

Animation: Motion picture which can be modified by user. With animation, everything in relation with picture seen attractive and interesting (Fanani, 2009). Animation flash: Motion picture with motion text (optional) created by using Adobe Flash (Renati, 2002). It also can be used for learning media beside book.
