B. Problem Limitation
The use of audio recording as a new model for the students in the Speaking V class may prompt the students to perceive it differently. The research will be
focused first on the implementation of the use of audio recording as a model in speaking class. It is to find out how the teacher implements the model in the
speaking class. Secondly, it will be focused on the students’ perceptions on the use of the model. The subjects of the research were the students taking Speaking
V classes which used the audio recording as the model in teaching speaking of English Language Education Study Program of Sanata Dharma University.
C. Problem Formulation
There are two research questions discussed in the research: 1.
How does the teacher implement the use of audio recording as a model in Speaking V class of the English Language Education Study Program of Sanata
Dharma University? 2.
What are the students’ perceptions towards the use of audio recording as a model in the Speaking V class of the English Language Education Study
Program of Sanata Dharma University?
D. Research Objectives
Based on the problem formulation, there are two objectives of the research: 1.
To find out how the teacher implements the model in Speaking V class of the English Language Education Study Program of Sanata Dharma University.
2. To investigate the students’ perceptions on the use of the model in Speaking V
class of the English Language Education Study Program of Sanata Dharma University.

E. Research Benefits
Hopefully, the research could give benefits to teachers and other researchers. By knowing students’ perceptions on teaching techniques, teachers will be able to
find out whether the teaching techniques are appropriate for the students or not. Therefore, if students have good perceptions on the teaching techniques, the
teachers may apply the teaching techniques in their classes. One of teaching techniques is the use of a model in a class. It means that by knowing the students’
perceptions on a model, the teachers will find out whether the model is appropriate for the students or not. Therefore, by knowing the students’
perceptions on the use of audio recording as a model in Speaking V class, the teachers may find out whether the use of audio recording as a model in Speaking
V class is appropriate for the students or not. If the students perceive the use of audio recording as a model positively, the teachers may use the same technique in
their speaking classes to improve the students’ speaking skills. Furthermore, teachers may see an alternative way to teach speaking and may decide what
teaching technique is appropriate for the students to help them to improve their speaking skills. Moreover, the teachers may not only be restricted in the familiar
and provided techniques in teaching speaking, but they have to be innovative to find and implement the effective and interesting techniques in teaching speaking.
In addition, this research is hopefully could give benefits to other researchers. The other researchers may use this research as a reference for their studies especially
on teaching techniques.
