ABSTRAK

  Fitriyani, Ana. 2018. Sikap Siswa Terhadap Pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris

  Siswa Kelas X SMA Negeri 1 Welahan Jepara Tahun Ajaran 2018/2019. Skripsi. Pendidiknan Bahasa Inggris, Fakultas Keguruan dan

  Ilmu Pendidikan, Universitas Muria Kudus. Penasihat: (i) Dr. Slamet Utomo, M.Pd, (ii) Aisyah Ririn PU, S.S., M.Pd

  Kata Kunci: Sikap, Pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris, Aspek sikap Siswa

  Sikap adalah kecenderungan untuk merespon secara positif atau negatif terhadap suatu hal, ide, orang, situasi, dll. Al-Mamun, Rahman, Rahman, dan Hossaim berpendapat bahwa sikap adalah perasaan yang di miliki orang tentang bahasa mereka sendiri. Pembelajaran bahasa Inggris adalah proses materi pembelajaran bahasa Inggris kepada siswa dalam kegiatan kelas. Masalah dalam penelitian ini adalah bagaimana sikap siswa terhadap pembelajaran bahasa Inggris di SMA Negeri 1 Welahan Jepara pada tahun ajaran 2018/2019?

  Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan sikap siswa terhadap pembelajaran bahasa Inggris di SMA Negeri 1 Welahan Jepara pada tahun ajaran 2018/2019.

  Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian kualitatif. Subjek di penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas X mengambil dari 1 kelas sebanyak 35 siswa dari kelas X MIPA 3 SMA Negeri 1 Welahan Jepara Tahun Ajaran 2018/2019. Penelitian ini mulai mengumpulkan data dari siswa menggunakan lembar kuesioner. Kuesioner terdiri dari 30 pernyataan and pertanyaan itu tentang aspek sikap, yaitu aspek sikap kognitif, sikap emosional, dan sikap perilaku.

  Dari hasil penelitian menunjukan sikap kognitif mendapat 36%, sikap emotional 32%, dan sikap perilaku juga mendapat 32%. Siswa X MIPA 3 menggunakan sikap emosional dan sikap perilaku. Tapi, di penelitian ini siswa lebih menekankan pada sikap kognitif mengenai pembelajaran bahasa inggris.

  Penulis mempunyai beberapa saran di penelitian ini; (i)Bagi guru, guru harus mampu menciptakan suasana yang baik di kelas. Jadi, guruitu harus tahu bagaimana memberi suasana yang baik di kelas. Untuk mendapatkan respon dari mereka, itu harus melalui pendekatan yang berbeda. Siswa akan lebih nyaman jika guru juga bertindak seperti teman bagi mereka. Mereka juga menyukai suasana santai dalam proses belajar bahasa Inggris. (ii) Bagi siswa, proses belajar bahasa Inggris, jika anda tidak memahami materi, tanyakan saja kepada guru. Dan and dapat mengasumsikan bahwa guru anda seperti teman anda dan menciptakan suasana yang rileks. Di Indonesia, bahasa Inggris adalah bahasa asing dan penting untuk di pelajari. (iii) Bagi para pembaca, peletitian ini dapat memberikan pengetahuan kepada beberapa pembaca dan ini juga dapat menjadi referensi bagi peneliti lain yang melakukan penelitian yang terkait dengan topik yang sama.
