Abstract
In the 2013 Curriculum, the government assigned SMP students to use a course book
“When English Rings A Bell”. However, the result of textbook analysis reveals that the
speaking materials in WERB for seventh grade are limited. Regardless of these urgency,
need analysis reveals that it is necessary to have video-based supplementary materials to
teach speaking skill. This Research and Development study is intended to (1) investigate
the quality of “When English Rings A Bells” textbook to teach speaking skill for grade
seventh of Junior High School, and (2) to develop the video-based supplementary
materials to teach speaking skill for grade sevent. The data in need analysis was
obtained from three Junior High Schools in Surakarta. The feasibility test merely focused
on one of SMP in Surakarta . The sample of this research was the seventh grade students
which consisted of 28 students. This study is categorized as a Research and Development
study. There are 2 stages in conducting this study. The first is exploration, which consists
of need analysis, library research, prototype design, and expert judgment. The second is
model development which consists of prototype try out and evaluation. The findings of
the study lead to the conclussions that there are some weaknesses of WERB for seventh
grade viewed from the six criteria of good speaking materials. The result of textbook
analysis leads to the development of the video-based supplementary material through
two stages namely exploration and model development entitled “When I Speak English”
(WISE). The result is WISE can enhance the students’ speaking skill.

GRADE OF JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL IN SURAKARTA

Abstract
In the 2013 Curriculum, the government assigned SMP students to use a course book
“When English Rings A Bell”. However, the result of textbook analysis reveals that the
speaking materials in WERB for seventh grade are limited. Regardless of these urgency,
need analysis reveals that it is necessary to have video-based supplementary materials to
teach speaking skill. This Research and Development study is intended to (1) investigate
the quality of “When English Rings A Bells” textbook to teach speaking skill for grade
seventh of Junior High School, and (2) to develop the video-based supplementary
materials to teach speaking skill for grade sevent. The data in need analysis was
obtained from three Junior High Schools in Surakarta. The feasibility test merely focused
on one of SMP in Surakarta . The sample of this research was the seventh grade students
which consisted of 28 students. This study is categorized as a Research and Development
study. There are 2 stages in conducting this study. The first is exploration, which consists
of need analysis, library research, prototype design, and expert judgment. The second is
model development which consists of prototype try out and evaluation. The findings of
the study lead to the conclussions that there are some weaknesses of WERB for seventh
grade viewed from the six criteria of good speaking materials. The result of textbook
analysis leads to the development of the video-based supplementary material through
two stages namely exploration and model development entitled “When I Speak English”
(WISE). The result is WISE can enhance the students’ speaking skill.
