Ten Core Assumptions of Current Communicative Language Teaching.

25 3 Observe a variety of Classrooms, rate various teachers on specific traits, and then examine which traits are associated with teachers whose students are among the highly motivated andor the highly achieving, 4 Identify teachers whose students consistently achieve at a higher level than other students, then carefully observe those successful teachers to see what they do, 5 Train teachers to use various strategies to teach the same lesson, and then determine which approach leads to the greatest student learning.

B. Theoretical Framework

In this thesis, the researcher answered the two formulated research questions. The answer to the two research questions were based on several related theories described in the theoretical description part. In the theoretical framework, the researcher presents the related theories to answer each research question. 1. Question 1: Students‟ responses to the implementation of impromptu speech practice The first problem formulation is about students‟ responses to the implementation of impromptu speech practice. The responses from students are very various. The researcher limits the responses into students ‟ actions and students‟ thought as it is stated by McKechnie 1981. Braun 1979 and Aiken 1969 also discuss about students‟ perception and ways of thinking. The answers to students‟ responses were also related to the theory of behavioristic stated by Grice and Skinner 1984.

The theory of speaking in public by Zarefsky 1996 is also added in answering the first research question. 2. Question2: Students‟ suggestion for further implementation of impromptu speech practice. The second problem formulatio n is about students‟ suggestions for further implementation of impromptu speech practice. In order to answer the second research questions, the researcher uses a theory of teaching speaking and English as a foreign language or second language. The theory from Sprinthall 1987 about educational psychology in a development approach is also used in students‟ suggestion on the implementation of impromptu speech practice. However, since the second research question was about students‟ suggestions, the answers are based on the students‟ ways of thinking on the implementation of impromptu speech practice. In addition, students‟ suggestions on the implementation of impromptu speech practice are also strengthen by the theory from Hamachek 1989 about psychology in teaching learning and growth. Moreover, a theory stated by Omaggio 1989 about teaching approaches is also used in order to answer the second research questions. Moreover, Slavin 1991 also states a theory about teaching development. PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
