The third, the topic would be useful for language development because the simulation technique concerns on speaking skill. Therefore, by analyzing this
matter, I hope that the second language learner could get knowledge and information in using English through simulation. This technique uses English as a
means of communication not merely studying the language itself. The last one is the topic gives an advantage for the students in improving
their speaking skill and elaborating their learning styles. All the teaching and learning processes held in the context of situation according to the students’
vocations. It would give much information for them in using English as the means of communication on their fields.
1.3 Statement of Problems
The problems that are discussed in this study are: 1.
How is the speaking test achievement for students taught using simulation technique?
2. How is the speaking test achievement for students taught without using
simulation technique? 3.
Is there any significant difference in students’ speaking test achievement between those taught by using simulation technique and those taught without
using simulation technique?
1.4 Objectives of the Study
The purposes of this study are:
5
1. to find out the speaking test achievement for students taught using simulation
technique 2.
to find out the speaking test achievement for students taught without using simulation technique
3. to find out whether there is significant difference in students’ speaking test
achievement between those taught by using simulation technique and those taught without using simulation technique.
1.5 Hypothesis
There are two hypothesis in this study; they are working hypothesis and null hypothesis. Working hypothesis Hw: there is significant difference in the
students’ speaking test achievement between experimental group and control group.
Null hypothesis H : there is no significant difference in the students’
speaking test achievement between experimental group and control group.
1.6 Significance of the Study
The results of this study hopefully provide some advantages: 1.
For the English teacher By applying simulation technique, the English teachers can use the results of
this study as the feedbacks on their teaching activities so that the students can improve their speaking skill.

2. For the students
Hopefully the Vocational High School students can improve their English speaking skill in an alive class.
3. For the researchers
This study is expected will be one of the alternative references in providing the information for the researchers about teaching speaking through simulation
that can be implemented in Vocational High School. 4.
For the theoretical and practical implementation for English teaching The result of this study can be used to improve English teaching, especially in
Vocational High Schools.
1.7 Outline of the Study
This final project is divided into five chapters, which can be elaborated as follows: Chapter I covers general background of the study, reasons for choosing the
topic, statement of problems, objectives of the study, hypothesis, significance of the study, and outline of the study.
Chapter II provides the theories underlying the study. It encompasses the review of previous studies and the review of theoretical studies.
Chapter III consists of the method of investigation which comprises research design, population and sample, research variables, the experimental
design, the research instrument, scoring system, procedures of collecting the data, data analysis, and limitations of the study.

The details of the statistical analysis are discussed in the chapter IV. It includes of general description, result and discussion.
Chapter V provides conclusions of the study and some suggestions noted from the result of the study.
