APPENDICES

Today, communication becomes not only as a base of social interaction, but also as means of information exchange, human can understand other people, society and other ethnic group. So, for that reason human need a tool to get it called “language”.

That is why today, in Indonesia, students are acquired to have language

competences. One of the competences is communicative competence, that is

knowing how to use the language rather than just knowing about the language1. It means that the central aim of teaching and learning English is to make students able to use all aspects of language.

English is one of International languages and it is widely used and studied all over the world. As we know that language is used not only in writing, but also in speaking as a means of communication. It is not enough for the students simply to learn the grammar only, but also to practice all the common pattern, form or words until they can use them in proper position automatically.

English language is not only viewed as knowledge but also as a life ski l –

that is skill in communication. As the result, the purpose of teaching and learning

IN TRODUC TION

A. Backg round of the study

English no longer to make students know about the language but to make students

able to use the language.

Actually, the purpose of teaching English at Junior High School as stated in the curriculum is to develop student communicative in English

regarded to the macro skill of reading, writing, speaking and Communicative language teaching pays systematic attention to functional as well as structural aspect of language. Therefore, grammar serves as an important aspect in communicative language teaching.

Grammar keeps an important role in communication. But, in fact, learning English grammar is sometimes boring for the students. The technique used in teaching learning process is monotonous where the students just memorize style of expression by constructing the sentences based on the pattern of grammar

without given opportunity to express their own meaning in the real life

communication.

The position of grammar in communicative language teaching is important because grammar is viewed as one dimension of communicative competence. Moreover, grammar is viewed as a tool or a resource to be used in conveying meaning and comprehending other people’s massage in language teaching. Consequently, English teachers have to attend grammar in English teaching by

using dialogue technique in understanding the simple present tense. A dialogue technique is one of the principle approaches or indirect approaches of communicative language teaching.

The simple present tense is one of the discussions of Most learners find the form of the simple present tense that for expressing present time in English is particularly complex. They often continue to make mistakes because the lack knowledge of using the – s, - es morpheme on the third singular person and using auxiliary present (do and does) that constitutes an asset of mastering the simple present tense and their usage and they have difficulty using them

appropriately.

Therefore, the writer was interested in writing skripsi about the teaching simple present tense using dialogue techniques at junior high school in learning

English. It is necessary to look for a new way in teaching English grammar especially the simple present tense by using dialogue technique in understanding

the simple present tense. So the writer makes a research at the first grade of

students in MTsN Tangerang II Pamulang.

To avoid misunderstanding in interpretation the problem, it is necessary to make the lim itation of the problem. In teaching English there are some kinds of tenses in grammar and methods of teaching. In this paper, the writer limits the problem that simple present tense is a part of English subject taught in the first year of MTsN Tangerang II Pamulang. So, the writer wil limit the study, only discuss about “the effectiveness of using dialogue techniques to reinforce the understanding of the simple present tense”

The objective of the research is to know whether using dialogue

techniques is effective in teaching of the simple present tense.

Based on the background of the study, the writer would like to formulate this problem as follow: “is there any effect in the students’ understanding of the simple present tense after being taught using dialogue

technique?”

There are some elements that will get the significances of the study. They are students, teachers, headmasters, policy makers, etc. To students, it is useful to give them abetter understanding about simple present tense so that they can use it in their communication. To teachers, it can be useful as

information about an alternative way in teaching simple present tense in their

classes. To headmasters, it is also beneficial as consideration in making decision about the approach that will be applied in their schools. Futhermore, it also can be helpful for the policy makers in making decision about the process of teching and learning at school.

In brief, the study is useful as information or consideration for students, teachers, headmasters, policy makers and others who are involved in

the process of teaching and learning.

This paper is composed of five chapters. The first chapter is an introduction of the study that describes background of the study, limitation of the study, objective of the study, statement of the study, significance of the

study and the organization of the writing.

The second chapter is theoretical framework that gives detail information about simple present tense. It also describes dialogue technique and learning such as its definition, procedure, advantages and disadvantages. It is also explains relevant study, conceptual framework hypothesis of the

research.

The discussion about the research methodology and finding is described in third chapter. It includes objective of the study, place and time of the research, method of research, population and sample of research, instrument of the research, procedures of collecting the data, and technique of

data analysis.

In the fourth chapter, the writer provides the research findings, data description, test of hypothesis and data interpretation.

At the end of paper, the writer gives a conclusion of her study and tries to offer some suggestions to all readers.

The term “tense” derived ultimately from the Latin word “tempus” meaning “time”.2 The word tense stands for a verb from or series of verb forms used to express a time relation. Tense vary in different language. Tenses may indicate whether an action, actively, or state is past, present, or future.3

Based on the definition of tense, the writer concludes that tense is time to indicate the activity progress.

The commonest tense found in languages is present, past and future; when

the situation described in the present tense is related as simultaneous with the moment of speaking (e.g. John is singing); the situation described in the past as related prior to the moment of speaking (e.g. John was singing); while the situation described in the future as related subsequent to the moment of speaking (e.g. John will sing).

Since tense refers to the time of the situation which to the situation of the utterance, it can be described as “deictic”. According Saeed, deictic system is the ways in which a speaker relates references to space and time to the “here”

and: now” of the utterance.4 Most grammatical tense systems allow the speaker to describe situations as prior to, concurrent with, or following the act of speaking.5 In other words, deictic refers to an interval or period of time which contains the moment of utterance. It can be expressed by some words: yesterday, now, tomorrow.

There are many kinds of tenses; one of them is simple tense. The simple present tense says that something was true in the past, is true in the present, will be true in the future. It is used for general statement of fact. Meanwhile the simple present tense is sometimes used to describe an that is actually in progress at the moment of speaking. Beside that, the simple present tense can describe habits, routines, or events than regularly.6 Similarly as proposed by Huddleston that “the central use of present tense form is to indicate present time. For example, the door opens inwards describes a state affairs that obtains now,

at the moment of speaking.7

Based on the preceding definitions of simple present tense, the writer concludes that simple present usually doesn’t refer to a particular time. Use the simple present for facts and general statements that include the present and true at anytime. In addition the simple present is uses to indicate a habitual action, event or condition.

According Thompson and Martinet, that in the affirmative, the simple present tense has the same form as the infinitive adds an s for third singular.8 Also

for the first and the second singular person and for t plural is without s. on the

other source stated that for the 3rdperson singular (he, she, it), we add s to the main verb or es to the auxiliary.

Here is the pattern of affirmative sentence in simple present tense:

For example:

-In the present form “to be” has three forms: is, am, and are. These form used as a substitute for a verb in sentences where there is no verb. This is because in English, unlike in Indonesia or Arabic, a sentence can only be made with a verb. The complement of such a sentence is usually a noun, am adjective or an adverb of place or time.9

For example:

. (Noun) . (Adjective)

. (Adverb of place)

Negative statement in the simple present is formed by adding do not or

does not before the simple form of the verb. And here the pattern of negative sentence in simple present:

9 _{Drs. Nasrun Mahmud, M. Pd, ,}

(Jakarta: PBB UIN, 2003), p. 74

S = V1 / S / ES + (….)

S + do not / does not + V1 + (….) b. Negative Statement

I work in the office everyday. You work in the office everyday We work in the office everyday They work in the office everyday He works in the office everyday She works in the office everyday

He is a farmer She is diligent

They are in the classroom

For example:

-The negative sentence in “to be” is formed by adding ‘not’ after ‘to be’. For example:

Especially in speaking, is not and are not are contracted to isn’t and aren’t.

The interrogative form is also using auxiliary do and The auxiliary is placed before the subject; here is the pattern of interrogative

sentence in simple present tense

For example:

-The interrogative sentence in ‘to be’ is formed by placing ‘to be’ before the subject of the sentence.

For example:

Do / does + S + V1 + (….) ? c. Interrogative Statement

I do not work in the office everyday You do not work in the office everyday We do not work in the office everyday They do not work in the office everyday He does not work in the office everyday She does not work in the office everyday

He is a student. He is not a student. They are at home. They are not at home.

Do you eat breakfast every morning? Do they eat breakfast every morning? Does she eat breakfast every morning? Does he eat breakfast every morning?

He is a student. Is he a student? They are at home. Are they at home?

Short answer to questions is made with the following pattern:

- Yes + Subject + (pronoun) + to be (for positive answer)

- No + Subject + (pronoun) + to be not (for negative answer)

For example:

The form negative “do not / does not” is contracted in the negative interrogative into don’t/doesn’t and here is the pattern of interrogative

sentence in simple present tense:

For example:

-Negative questions are used to indicate the speaker’s (i.e., what she/he believes is or is not true) or attitude (e.g., shock, annoyance, anger).1 0

These are the examples of the-s form correctly:

a. For most verbs, add - to the simple form.

You coffee He tea

I book He newspaper

They football Aldo football

We in the kitchen the cat a fish

b. Add - to verbs that end in , and (unless the is

pronounced with the sound of ).

e. Adverb of frequency.

Frequency adverbs modify verbs or adjective.1 1 They describe how

regularly or what percentage of time happens. The following adverbs like (always, usually, often, sometimes, seldom, and never) are often used with the simple present tense to indicate frequency. Here are the meanings of some frequency adverbs in approximate percentage of time:

100% : always

0% : never

For example:

Affirmative : Students are busy.

She gets sick.

They are together.

Negative : They don’t study.

We don’t want to go there again

I’m not tried.

Frequency adverb generally appears AFTER the verb “to be” but BEFORE the all other verbs.

In addition:

If there is an auxiliary verb (can, must, should, will, have, …. ), the

frequency adverb comes after it

If there are two auxiliary verbs (would have, should have, … ), the

frequency adverb comes after the first.

f. Longer time expressions that describe repeated action come at the

beginning or the end of the sentence for emphasis. The buses run every .

, I don’t go to the office on Saturday

The simple present tense performs the following function:

1. Express general truths

Coffee from Brazil.

2. Express habitual actions, often with such adverbial expression as frequency; usually, everyday, and so on. It is also the usual present tense

Technique is implementation that which actually takes in a classroom. It is particular trick stratagem or contrivance used to accomplish an immediate objective. Technique must be consistent with a method and therefore in harmony with approach.

According to Anthony’s quoted by Richards, technique is the level which

classroom procedures are described.1 3

A technique called wrangling can be used with to utterance exchanges that expresser imply some kind of conflict. Just as grammar points seem to pair naturally with other aspect of language, teaching technique should very according

to the match being emphasized. For example, in structural social, match such as modals and request, the degree of politeness depends on the social relationship

between the speakers.

On the other hand, if one teaching quantifiers’ locati preposition or modal of logical probability structure meaning matches the most useful techniques are demonstration, illustration, and TPR. Many techniques in teaching grammar, especially simple present. One of them is using dialogue.

Finally, with structure discourse matches the major technique includes text

generation, manipulation and explanation. A combination of teaching activity mentioned above can be used a dynamic piece of discourse such as natural dialogue from the text.

Dialogue technique is the short conversation between, two speakers, consisting of four to six utterances, representing come kind communicative

event.1 4 Talks are sometimes called dialogue. You read dialogue in many stories,

plays and comic strips. The dialogue helps tell a story, you can learn things from

what people in a story say.1 5

A dialogue technique is one used in teaching simple present in school. The dialogue is presented orally. W ith or without written and learnt by heart by the students. Preferably during the lesson through various kinds of repetition.

During a language lesson, such dialogues can reflect spontaneous situations. Those unexpected dialogues are really communicative and built according to the scheme "stimulus - response". This principle stimulates active thinking process, intuitive thought and use of language in the frame of fixed

communicative habits.

Real communication is always informative, unpredictable and unexpected. If the teacher is always informative, interesting and nexpected, then even before the beginning if the lesson students will be disposed a good lesson. But if the previous lesson is just the same as the next one, students will be bored with it

before the lesson start.

When a teacher is not a dictator, students try to learn language themselves. In small groups, even the shyest students engage in communication at the same level as a "non timid" students. It never happens, however, if the teacher stands in front of the all class. Work in groups which transform a student into the main person of the language lesson is the kind of work which develops the

communicative abilities of students. Finocchiaro and Brumphit quoted by

Richards, offer a lesson outline for teaching the function “making a suggestion” for learners in the beginning level of secondary school program that suggest that CLT procedures are evolutionary rather than revolutionary:1 6

1) Presentation of brief dialogue or several mini dialogues

2) Oral practice of each utterance in the dialogue

3) Questions and answers based on the dialog topic (s) and situation in the dialogue.

4) Questions and answers related to the students’ personal experiences but

centered on the dialog theme.

5) Study one of the basic communicative expressions in the dialog or one of

the structures which exemplify the function.

6) Learner discovery of generalization or rules underlying the functional expression or structure.

7) Oral recognition, interpretative activities (two to five depending on the learner level, the language knowledge of the students, and related factors).

8) Oral production activities-proceeding from guided to freer communication

activities.

9) Copying of the dialog or mini dialogs or modules if they are not in the

class text.

10) Sampling of the written homework assignment, if given.

11) Evaluation of learning (oral only), e.g., how would you ask your friend to ……..? And how would you ask me to …?”

This activity also same with conversation activity that need two members to participate it. Generally the dialogue should be four or to six line long. That must include grammatical items and vocabulary which the students need to master as well as the items of typical features of spoken English such as; short answer, contracted work and question tag.

Before students act their dialogue, teacher gave some instructions for the ways of dialogue or gave the theme for dialogue activity draws on cognitive skills

Each technique has its advantages and disadvantages. Here are some advantages of dialogue technique:

According to Larsen, that “teachers give the students he opportunity to express their individually by having them share their and opinions on a regular basis”.1 7

Based on the description above, we can conclude that dialogue technique have the advantages, as follow:

1) Students can develop their communicative intents.

2) The dialogue is one of the best ways to present grammar structures

because it approximates closest to the real life.

3) Make students more natural and spontaneous in learning the simple

present tense .

4) Make the student interested in teaching learning activ because it

helps to make an otherwise abstract language exercise meaningful and

realistic.

5) Student can use the language communicatively.

6) Communicative interaction gives learners more opportunities to

express their own individually in the classroom1 8

1. The non-native teachers would find the difficulties in exploring the class.

2. It would needs some specific conditionals that required much time and

costs.

3. Dialogue is frequently very noisy and some others and udents dislike this. Teachers in particular worry will lose control of their class.

Techniques and Principles in Language Teaching

Before the teacher teaches the material, he should introduce the method and encourage the students.

First of all, she calls on four volunteers of student o come to the front of the class and sit with her in chair that are lined up facing to the other students. He

tells the other student to listen and to watch.

The dialogue is perhaps the best way to present grammar structures because is approximates closest the real life situation in which language operate. The new items of structure and vocabulary, in addition to parts of previously learn dialogue.

In the dialogue, language achieves its purpose of comm because pupils listening to and say sentences. They can use when they communicate their own feelings and ideas in sim ilar communication situation. The g the tones and the play acting that the teacher employs to teach dialogue effectively all help to make an otherwise abstract language exercise meaningful and realistic to the students.

This type of presentation can be used at all grade levels. Two simples two

-way dialogue, compose only of very short and very simple sentences for grades one and two, can progress two groups with longer sentences and more complicated structure for the higher grades.

The teacher, because of her constant dealings with her class, will know best what conversational interest they have, what they would naturally say were they to meet the situation, how to integrate new material with the old, and what previous learning they have had. In grammar many tenses who had knew, one of them is simple present tense. The teacher has to present a subject matter with other techniques like preparing by dialogues for class study.

This is not to say that the dialogue preparation is a simple matter. A dialogue needs to be carefully prepared. It must be as natural and spontaneous as possible. The structures should not appear in the dialogue lines more often then

they would in ordinary dialogue, even if we want the c attention on them because they are new and are the things to be learned.

An essential quality of a good dialogue is its economy of expression. Besides including the new grammar (simple present tense). Every structure and vocabulary item included in a dialogue should be essential to its development. As we enter the classroom, the first thing we notice is that students are attentively as the teacher is presenting a new dialogue between two people. The students know they will be expected to eventually memorize the dialogue the teacher is introducing. Before the teacher makes a dialogue, there are some processes as follow:

1. Introducing the new term and new structures which will appear in the basic dialogue in an identification exercise. This sample lesson of dialogue

which uses simple present. In the simple present tense should probably be

given a new name, since it does not indicate an action that taking a place at sometimes is taking about the action.1 9 It is to indicate a customary or

habitual action which has not been terminated.

Structures: Still in affirmative statement and question Any more in negative statement

2. Presentation of dialogue

Explain the situation around which the dialogue is built with the aid of pictures, puppets or other devices. Present the dialogue either by taking all

the lines of the character or by having it acted out by students who have been rehearsed beforehand. It suggests that the teacher memorized the dialogue before presenting it to the students. If she the dialogue well, she will not fumble in her presentation, she wil be surer of communicating its meaning to the students, and she wil hold the attention

of the class better.

Postman : I have a letter for Miss Dwi

Mrs Rina : She doesn’t live here anymore

Postman : Can you tell me where she lives now?

Mrs Rina : Just a minute. I will get my address book.

Postman : Thank you

Mrs Rina : She lives at 41 Pamulang Street

Postman : I also have a letter for Miss Zahra

Does she still live on this street?

Mrs Rina : Yes, she lives in that yellow house on the corner

Postman : Thank you

Mrs Rina : You are welcome.

3. Question to find out whether the students have understood the dialogue the

students can make some question from the dialogue above.

Question Answer

What is Mrs. Rina address? Does Miss Dwi live at the

Same address? What is her address?

She lives at Cinere

No, she does not live there anymore She lives on Pamulang Street

Situation: The postman rings the bell at Mrs Rina house; he has two letters in his hand. Mrs Rina opens the door.

4. Memorization of the dialogue through repetition in a variety of ways. Model the lines of the dialogue and have the class repeat each line after you. Take one part and have the class take the other, exchange roles. Have the class act out the roles by groups, by rows, then by individual

students.

The usual procedure is repetition of the lines by grou then by the individuals, repetition is necessary for memorization. But, practice not be cued exclusively by the teacher saying,” repeat after as she supplies

the oral model.

She should ask them to repeat the lines only as many items as needed, some class need more repletion than others. However, she should not hurry the class through this step as the students performance in the text part of the lesson depends very much on the fluency gained during this

step.

If the teacher finds that her students can learn the dialogue with out going through all the steps as outlined, she can skip of them. As the students learn more vocabulary and more structures, the memorization of the later dialogues would not take as long as the earlier.

7) Let’s say the lines of the dialogue

together

(Point to the character in the

picture as you say his line)

Etc 2) Now, I’ll be a postman and you be

Mrs. Rina I have a letter for Miss Dwi

I have a letter for Miss.Dwi. I have a letter for Miss.Dewi.

She does not live there any more

Etc

3) Now you be a postman and

I’ll be Mrs. Rina

She does not live there any more

I have a letter for Miss Zahra

5. Dialogue variation

Give a situation very similar to that of the basic dialogue. The lines are the same except for the substitution that the students will make as determines by the new situation. The first variation may be given in the form of a directed dialogue. The students many act out the roles in other variation without cues from the teacher. It is Miss dwi,s party. Your sister sent you to her house to take her a gift. Some opens t or.

Group 1 : You take the gift to Miss. Lala.

Group 2 : You open the door for her

Group 1 : Say that you have a gift for Miss.Lala.

Group 1 : I have a gift for Miss.Lala

Group 2 : She does not live here anymore Etc.

(Have one student from Group 1 go through the action of taking the gift to Miss.Lala and the student from Group 2 of opening the door)

The research about simple present tense had been done by Aminah that

was “ ”.2 0 This

research explains about the application of dialogue technique in teaching simple present tense. She conducted the observation started on March 12th, 2007-May 16th, 2007. She used dialogue technique to teach the simple past tense in order to minimize the students’ errors and difficulties in learning simple present tense, because this technique made the students know and practice the simple present sentences from the dialogue directly. Moreover, it could make students understand the sentences of simple past tense easily. In fact, the result of analysis of interpretation of the data shows that teaching simple present tense became more effective by using dialogue technique; it can be seen from the result of the test.

By using dialogue technique, the researcher hopes that the students will improve their understanding of simple present tense, and improve their ability in using simple present tense both written and spoken.

Relevant Study

Teaching Simple Present Tense through Dialogue Technique

Grammar is a description of the way language works. The knowledge of grammatical rules is essential for the mastery of a language; we cannot use words unless we know how they should be put together. It is study of the way words are put together to make correct sentences. Grammar does not only affect how

units of language are combined in order to “look right”; it is also affects their

meaning.

As one of the various grammatical structures, simple present tense should be taught and practiced as a means of communication. To realize the goal, learning process of present tense should be appeared in a context of students’ real life.

Along with the discussion, Dialogue Technique will emphasis on the attachment of context in teaching learning activity. It is intended to help the students relate the content they are learning to the life context in which the content

could be used.

Accordingly, the writer regards the dialogue technique as an approach of teaching and learning process in teaching present tense because it may help students to understand the concept of present tense meaningfully.

1. Null Hypothesis (Ho)

“There is no significant effect of teaching Simple Present Tense using a Dialogue Technique at MTsN Tangerang II Pamulang”.

2. Alternative Hypothesis (Ha)

“There is a significant effect of teaching Present Tense using a Dialogue Technique at MTsN Tangerang II Pamulang”

The objective of the reserach is the writer wants to know whether using dialogue techniques is effective to reinforce the understanding of the simple

present tense

The writer conducted the research at MTsN Tangerang II Pamulang Jl. Pajajaran located in Pamulang.

The writer conducted this research from October 16, 2008 up to February

19, 2009.

The object of the research consists of nine classes with total 303 students from first grade of MTsN Tangerang II Pamulang. They are divided into 7 class types; regular class and 2 classes for bina prestasi class.

The writer used the stratified random sampling for the ple of the research, so the sample of research only 24 students which is class VII 9 (Class Bina prestasi 2).

A. Purpose of Research

B.

Place and Time

This study is a kind of one-group pre-test and post-test design (in fact Cohen and Manion quoted by Nunan, call it a pre-experiment)2 1 whereas the students would be given a pre-test before starting the treatment and post-test after the treatment. The result of pre-test and post-test are compared and calculated to find out the effectiveness of using dialogue technique in teaching simple present

tense.

In this research, the writer uses the test which is made by her. The materials of the test will be taken from the students’ handbook and other related book about simple present tense. The test is divided into two parts. The pre-test is given before the treatment while the post-test is given after the treatment to the class. The test consists of 16 items. The score calculated and analyzed in analysis

of the data.

Simple present is the tense, used when we want to state an action that is fact or habitual action; usually it used the base of verb expect for the third person singular, which is added –s or –es. For example: I drink the water. However, for he/she/it we must add –s or –es so it would be He

drinks the water.

Operational definition of the simple present tense is se that can be answered by the students in the pre-test and post-test. Hence, the writer would operate the students’ scores of the tests as the instrument of the

research.

Before doing the research, the writer tried the test out to the students of first grade of MTsN Tangerang II Pamulang who are not the

participant of the research on November-2009. The test was done to know

the validity and the reliability of the instrument.

Validity test is done to know whether the items of the questions measure what to be measure. To test validity of item, it used product moment theory. If there is a correlation between the t score, which is called dependent variable and the item score (independent variable), so there is a high validity of the test, and vica versa.

The product moment formula: 1) Mean total (Mt)

The teaching was held in the first year of MTsN Tangerang II Pamulang.

Before teaching, the teacher gave pre-test to all students in class VII 9 to check the students’ knowledge of the materials that would be taught and done in the experiment. The teacher presented the lesson through some steps as follows:

1. Pre-Teaching

- Greeting the students

- Telling the students that they are going to study about simple present tense through Dialogue Techniques

- Distributing the hand-out of materials to the students 2. While-Teaching

- Explaining the materials about the definition, the pattern and the

function of simple present tense and giving the example simple present tense by using dialogue techniques

- Asking the students to remaining what is the simple present tense? How

the patterns of the sentences in simple present tense, and ask the students try to use the simple present tense in daily activity.

- Giving the simple present tense through Dialogue Technique. The

following explanation is the teaching procedure that done by the writer in the treatment process:

a. Teacher explained the lesson plan for meeting that is describing in

habitual action.

c. The teacher calls the volunteer to in front of the class to practice the dialogue in simple present tense form.

d. Other students do the same dialogue asks and answer each other.

e. The teacher gives the other dialogue and gives the situation of the

dialogue and the students make a group to practice it.

f. The last, students conclude present tense, the function and the form

of it from activity they have done. It is kind of activity that students construct the information by themselves and share with other students.

3. Follow-up

- Asking the students whether they have questions

- Checking the students’ comprehension by giving the exercises in the oral and written form. The teacher gives the dialogue the students to practice in front of class/in pairs. Then, asking the ts’ to make sentences in affirmative, negative, and interrogative statement.

4. Post-Teaching

- Checking the students’ answers

- Giving the feedback

Collecting Data is one important thing in the research that can be determined the result of the research, as follow:

The writer did the pre-test by giving the students test as

mentioned. The test consists of twenty items. The students were only given forty minutes to finish completing the test.

G. Procedure of Collecting D ata

The writer did post-test by giving post-test to the students. The test was same as the pre-test. However, post-test was given after treatment had

been given by teaching simple present tense through Dialogue

Techniques.

Having got the data from pre-test and post-test, they were analyzed and processed by using statistic calculation of the T-test formula with the significance degree 5% and 1%. The formula as follows;

MD : Mean of difference: the average score from the differences gained scores between I variable and II variable, which are calculated with

the formula;

MD =

? D : Total score between I variable (X variable) and II var le (Y variable). And D is gained with formula; D = X – Y

N : Number of class

SDD : The standard deviation from the differences between score of X

variable and Y variable, which is gained with the formula:

The last calculation is determining the result of to (t observation) of the test with formula:

The last result -5.46 indicated that there was a difference of degree as much as 5,46. Regardless the minus, it does not indicate negative score.

Then, to complete the result of research, the writer tried to find out the degree of freedom (df) with formula:

df = N – 1

= 24 – 1 = 23

df = 23 (see table of “t” value at degree of significance of 5% and 1%)

At the degree of significance of 5% = 2.07

At the degree of significance of 1% = 2.81

The result of analyzing the data by using the formula shows that the coefficient is 5.46 this means that there is increasing score of the simple present tense taught using Dialogue Technique.

= = = = = = to M D SE MD −

Before deciding the result of hypothesis, the writer proposed interpretation toward to (t observation) with procedure as follows

a) If to > tt : there is a significant difference and the alternative hypothesis

(Ha) is accepted and null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected.

b) If to < tt : there is no significant difference and the alternative hypothesis

(Ha) is rejected and null hypothesis (Ho) is accepted.

The result of to (t observation) found 5.46 and tt (t table) the degree of

significance of 5% and 1% are 2.07 and 2.81. Comparing to(t observation) and tt(t

table), the result is 2.07<5.46>2.81. It means the to (t observation) is higher than tt

(t table).

According to the data, the score of to is higher than tt it means that the

alternative hypothesis is accepted and null hypothesis is rejected. There is a significance effect on the simple present tense taught through dialogue technique.

From the result of the test, the writer knows that the students’ post-test is higher than pre-test which means that the using of dialogue techniques can increase the students’ in understanding the simple present tense.

The test of hypotesis shows that there is a significant difference in students’ score between before and after they are taught by dialog technique. The difference is students’ score in simple present tense after the aplication of dialogue technique are higher than before they are taught by using dialogue

technique.

The findings as described above are supported by those obtained from the observation of the writer during the experiment. It was found that there are some factors that cause the improvement of students’ comprehension in simple present

C. Test of H ypothesis:

Statistical Hypothesis:

tense such as: (1) students are motivated because the ity of the teaching and learning is enjoyable, (2) student are interested in t material because it is related to the their life and provided in the context of real ife, (3) students realize that the material they are learned is important for them, (4) the teacher devided the class

into small groups, so the students can interact with others and share their ideas.

Based on the data analysis and the discussion above, the writer can interpret that dialogue technique is effective in teaching simple present tense to the first grade of MTsN tangerang II Pamulang.

Based on the previous discussion, the conclusion can be drawn that: Dialogue technique is effective in teaching simple present.

- Increase the students’ scores.

- The value of to (5.46) it is higher than tt (5%=2.07 and 1%=2.81).

According to the conclusion, this study would like to the following suggestions for teacher and students in learning process:

Teachers

a. The Teacher should be well prepared before entering the classroom

b. The teacher should make the students realize that the material will be

given is important for their daily communication

c. Te teacher should give the learning material related to the context of students’ live in order to make the students easier to relate new

information and their background knowledge.
