Penelitian ini tentang analisa strategi belajar siswa yang berkompeten dalam
kemampuan berbicara. Cara belajar ini berdasarkan klasifikasi strategi belajar
bahasa oleh Oxford. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengidentifikasi
strategi belajar siswa yang berkompeten dalam kemampuan berbicara , untuk
menganalisa factor-faktor yang mempengaruhi pemilihan strategi belajar oleh
siswa – siswa yang berkompeten dalam kemampuan berbicara, untuk
mengidentifikasi strategi belajar yang paling dominan digunakan oleh siswa-siswa
yang berkompeten dalam kemampuan berbicara, untuk mengidentifikasi
persamaan dan perbedaan strategi belajar yang digunakan oleh siswa-siswa yang
berkompeten dalam kemampuan berbicara. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian
kualitatif yang berfokus pada study kasus. Peserta dari penelitian ini adalah dua
orang siswa yang berkompeten dalam kemampuan berbicara. Pemilihan siswa
berdasarkan pengamatan dan dokumentasi. Data – data dikumpulkan dari
pengamatan, dokumen, angket dan wawancara. Hasil dari penelitian ini
menunjukkan bahwa siswa-siswa yang berkompeten dalam kemampuan berbicara
menggunakan enam strategi yang dicetuskan oleh Oxford. Perbedaannya ada pada
frekuensi penggunaan dari keenam strategy tersebut. Faktor – faktor yang
mempengaruhi pemilihan strategi belajar oleh siswa yang berkompeten dalam
kemampuan berbicara adalah kecakapan dalam belajar bahasa, gaya belajar, sikap
dan motivasi, kepribadian dan pengaruh guru. Strategi yang dominan digunakan
oleh siswa yang berkompeten dalam kemampuan belajar adalah strategi
Compenstaion.
Dua siswa MAN Karanggede yang berkompeten dalam
kemampuan berbicara memiliki persamaan yaitu rata-rata nilai tertinggi mereka
jatuh pada penggunaan strategi Compensation dan rata-rata nilai terendah adalah
strategi Social. Strategi kedua yang sering diguanakan oleh siswa 1 adalah strategi
metacognitive sedangkan siswa 2 adalah strategi memory.
Kata Kunci: Strategi belajar, Siswa yang berkompeten dalam kemampuan

ABSTRACT
Alif Okta Shofia. S 200140039. LEARNING STRATEGIES TO DEVELOP
SPEAKING SKILL: A CASE STUDY OF GOOD ORAL COMPETENT
STUDENTS OF MADRASAH ALIYAH NEGERI KARANGGEDE. Thesis.
Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta.2016.
This research is about the analysis of learning strategy used by good oral
competent students in speaking skill. The learning strategy is based on the
Oxford’s classification of language learning strategy. The objectives of the
research are to identify learning strategies used by good oral competent students,
to analyze factors that contribute to the choice of learning strategies used by good
oral competent students, to identify the dominant strategies used by good oral
competent students, to identify the similarities and the differences of learning
strategies used by good oral competent students. This is qualitative research which
focuses on case study research. The participants of the research are two good oral
competent students of MAN Karanggede which are choosed based on the
observation, documentation and the criteria of good language learners. The data
are collected from questionnaire and interview. The findings show that good oral
competent students applied six types of learning strategy proposed by Oxford. The
difference learning strategy used by two good oral competent students is on
frequency of use learning strategy. The factors that contribute to the choice of
learning strategies are level of language learning proficiency, cognitive or learning
style, attitude and motivation, personality and teacher influences. The dominant
learning strategy used by good oral competent students is compensation strategy
which student 1 includes in high use and student 2 in medium use. Two good oral
competent students of MAN Karanggede have same similarities that are the
highest mean score of learning strategy use is compensation strategy and the
lowest mean score is social strategy. The second strategy which is frequently used
by student 1 is metacognitive strategy, but student 2 frequently uses memory
strategy.
Keywords: Learning Strategy, Speaking Skill
