research
English is an international that easy people from a country communicates
with other people from different country who have different language also.
Therefore, students are hoping to be able to perform language skill such as
listening, speaking, reading and writing. The first way to introduce a language is
by listening. Then, we can speak, read and write. Listening is the ability to
identify and understand what others are saying. We cannot learn English without
listen to it first. Listening activity usually applies through tape recorder or by
using language laboratory. However, for the students, listening is including
difficult subject. So, in here the students must be listening carefully and pay
attention about what they heard.
The purpose of the research is to find out whether, there is any significant
difference between the listening comprehension of procedure text of the tenth
grade students of SMA Islam Al-Hikmah Mayong Jepara before and after being
taught by using talking stick in the academic year 2012/2013.
This is a quantitative research, which relies on quantitative data based on
computation and measurement, operational variables and statistics. The method of
the research is experiment. This design of the study is the quasi-experimental
research with pre-test and post-test. There was try out before the test, and then it
was continued by validity and reliability test. The data were taken from the

objective multiple choice tests. The total population is 129 of the tenth grade
students of SMA SMA Islam Al-Hikmah Mayong Jepara in the academic year
2012/2013. This research applied a cluster random sampling technique to get
samples. The total sample is 33 students from X-1 class.

ix

5.26 in the level of significance α = 0.05 and the degree of freedom 32, the t
(critical) is 2.04, so the t (obtained) value falls in the critical region. Thus, Ho is

Kata kunci: Pemahaman Mendengarkan, Teknik Talking Stick
Bahasa inggris merupakan bahasa international yang memudahkan orang
dari suatu bangsa untuk berkomunikasi dengan orang dari bangsa lain yang
berbeda pula bahasanya. Oleh karena itu, siswa diharapkan untuk bisa
menunjukkan keahlian bahasanya seperti mendengarkan, berbicara dan menulis.
Cara pertama untuk mengenalkan bahasa adalah dengan mendengarkan.
Kemudian, kita dapat berbicara, membaca, dan menulis. Mendengarkan adalah
kemampuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan memahami apa yang orang lain katakan.
Kita tidak dapat belajar bahasa inggris tanpa mendengarkan terlebih dahulu.
Kegiatan mendengarkan biasanya berlaku melalui tape recorder atau dengan
menggunakan laboratorium bahasa. Bagaimanapun juga bagi siswa,
mendengarkan adalah termasuk skill yang sulit. Maka, disini siswa-siswa harus
mendengarkan dengan hati-hati dan memberi perhatian atas apa yang mereka
dengarkan.
Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui apakah ada perbedaan
yang jelas antara pemahaman mendengarkan teks procedur siswa kelas X SMA
Islam Al-Hikmah Mayong Jepara sebelum dan sesudah diajarkan meggunakan
teknik Talking Stick tahun ajaran 2012/2013.
Ini merupakan penelitian kuantitatif, yang bergantung pada kuantitatif
berdasarkan perhitungan dan pengukuran, variable operasional dan statistik.
Metode penelitian adalah eksperimen. Desain penelitian ini adalah metode kuasiexperimental dengan pre-test dan post-test. Ada uji coba sebelum tes, kemudian
dilanjutkan dengan validitas dan reliabilitas. Data diperoleh dari hasil tes soal
pilihan ganda obyektif. Jumlah populasi sebanyak 129 dari siswa kelas X SMA
Islam Al-Hikmah Mayong Jepara tahun ajaran 2012/2013. Penelititian ini
menerapkan teknik cluster sampling acak untuk mendapatkan sampel. Jumlah
sampelnya adalah 33 siswa dari kelas X-1.
Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pemahaman mendengarkan teks
procedur siswa kelas X SMA Islam Al-Hikmah Mayong Jepara tahun ajaran
2012/2013 sebelum diajarkan dengan Talking Stick ditemukan nilai tertinggi 92,
dan skor terendah 28. Dan dari perhitungan data, rata-ratanya 63 dan standard
deviasi 15.40. jadi, di katagorikan cukup. Sementara itu, dari hasil tes pemahaman
mendengarkan teks procedur siswa kelas X SMA Islam Al-Hikmah Mayong
Jepara setelah diajarkan dengan menggunakan Talking Stick tahun ajaran
2012/2013 ditemukan nilai tertinggi 92, dan skor terendah 60. Dan dari

xi

perhitungan data, rata-rata 74.86 dan standar deviasi 8.35 jadi dikatagorikan baik.
Selain itu juga dapat disimpulkan bahwa t (diperoleh) nilai 5.26 pada tingkat
signifikansi = 0.05 dan derajat kebebasan 32, t (kritis) adalah 2.04, jadi t
(diperoleh) nilai jatuh di daerah kritis. Dengan demikian, Ho ditolak dan
menerima Ha. Jadi, hipotesis yang menyatakan, “Ada perbedaan prestasi yang
jelas dalam pemahaman mendengarkan dari teks procedur kelas X SMA Islam AlHikmah Mayong Jepara antara sebelum dan sesudah diajarkan dengan
menggunakan teknik Talking Stick” Diterima.
Berdasarkan hasil diatas, penulis menyimpulkan bahwa teknik Talking
Stick baik dalam meningkatkan pemahaman mendengarkan. Untuk guru, teknik
