E. Significance of the study.

The research aims to found out the alternative way of teaching speaking to improve the students speaking ability. The result is significant for: a. Teacher: 1 This research can give information about new creative teaching method. 2 To give information that speaking ability can improve by using simulation technique. b. Students: 1 To improve students’ motivation and interest. 2 To build students’ confidence in communicating c. Future researcher: This research can be used for reference of their knowledge. F. Scope and Limit 1. Scope Seventh grade of SMP Patriot Jombang which used procedural text and simulation technique.

2. Limit

This study only focuses on the seventh grade of SMP Patriot Jombang in academic year 2014-2015 and procedure text. This study only focuses on simulation technique in teaching speaking procedure text.

The improvement ofstudent s’speaking of procedure text score as a result that caused by the implementation simulation technique to teach speaking of procedure text.The effect of this research was the degree of improvement in the students speaking ability of procedure text as a result of using simulation technique, and measured statistically by T-test paired sample using SPSS 16 for windows of the effect size. Effective is defined as the capability of producing a desired result 14 . When something is effective, it means it has an expected outcome or a deep produce. In this research, effective was indicated by improvement of speaking ability of procedure text that measured by comparing the mean score of posttest both experimental and control group. The technique is effective if the score of test in experimental group is better than the result of control group.

2. Simulation Technique.

Simulation is a technique to teach speakingin whichthe students simulate a real- life encounter as if they were doing so in the real world 15 . In this research, simulation technique is used to teach in speaking of procedure text. The implementations of this technique are: setting up, getting going, managing the activity, winding down, and assessing 13 AS Hornby, O xford Advance Learner’s Dictionary,New York: Oxford University Press,1987, 369 14 AS Hornby, Oxford Advance ……..,369 15 Jeremy Harmer, The Practice of English Language Teaching, Fourth Edition.

Speaking Ability Speaking ability is the competence of the students to convey information, express ideas, thoughts, feeling and reaction in appropriate structure, speech sounds, appropriate vocabulary according to the situation and subject matter, and used the language fluently 16 In this research, speaking ability is the competence of the students to convey information, to express the ideas to the audience about how to make something in procedure text. 16 David Nunan, practical English LearningNew York: Mcgrow-Hill,2013,40 digilib.uinsby.ac.id digilib.uinsby.ac.id digilib.uinsby.ac.id digilib.uinsby.ac.id digilib.uinsby.ac.id digilib.uinsby.ac.id digilib.uinsby.ac.id
