9 ABSTRACT Ratnasari, Devy Kartika Improving Speaking Skill by Using Cue Card to Class VII-B of the Seventh Grade Students of SMP 2 Gebog in Academic Year 2013/2014 (A Classroom Action Research). Final Project: English Education Department, Teacher training and Education Faculty. Muria Kudus University. Advisors: (1) Drs. Suprihadi, M.Pd., (2) Fajar Kartika, S.S, M.Hum. Key Words: Speaking skill, Cue Card and classroom action research. Speaking considers as the skill that has to be mastered by the language learners because it is thought as one of the indicators to measure the success of learning language. In fact, teachers has less motivation to give the students special treatment to make them eager to participate fully in learning speaking in the class. That condition is also happened in SMP 2 Gebog. The students cannot be focus and active. It is proved by the percentage of students that get high score is only 36.6% and 63.4% gets low score in speaking in the class. After analyzing the problems, the writer assumes to use instructional media that is cue card to improve the students speaking skill. This final project is action research. In this study, I limited the discussion by stating the following problem: how is the achievement of speaking skill of class VII-B of the seventh grade students of SMP 2 Gebog in academic year 2013/2014 with the use of cue card?. The aim of the study was to describe the achievement of speaking skill of class VII-B of the seventh grade students of SMP 2 Gebog in academic year 2013/2014 with the use of cue card as the teaching medium. It is expected that the result of the study will provide a deeper understanding of the use of cue card as a teaching medium. There were four steps in conducting the Classroom Action Research i.e. planning, acting, observing, and reflecting. This action research was done in three cycles. The first cycle was how to express thanking and apologizing expression, like and dislike expression, and shopping list. In the result, the students speaking skill improves from cycle I until cycle III. In cycle I, the average of students speaking skill score is 71.06, in cycle II the average of the students speaking skill score is and in cycle III the average of students speaking skill is Besides, the students and teacher s activity are improved and the problem that faced by the teacher are decreased in every cycle. Therefore, the writer can conclude that the use of cue card can improve students speaking skill of class VII-B at the Seventh Grade Students of SMP 2 Gebog in Academic Year 2013/2014. Referring to this action research, the writer offer several suggestions. First, she suggest that the English teacher should try to use cue card as one of the teaching media. Second, English teacher should encourage the students to improve their speaking skill by giving more practice and exercise, such as retelling story, performing speech, practicing dialogue, and so forth. ix

10 ABSTRAK Ratnasari, Devy Kartika Improving Speaking Skill by Using Cue Card to Class VII-B of the Seventh Grade Students of SMP 2 Gebog in Academic Year 2013/2014 (A Classroom Action Research). Tugas Akhir.: Departemen Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris. Fakultas Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan. Universitas Muria Kudus. Pembimbing: (i) Drs. Suprihadi, M.Pd., (ii) Fajar Kartika, SS, M.Hum. Kata kunci : ketrampilan berbicara, cue card, penelitian tindakan kelas. Ketrampilan berbicara diajarkan kepada siswa untuk membuat mereka mampu berkomunikasi dengan bahasa Ingggri yang benar. Faktanya, guru kurang memiliki motivasi untuk memberikan perlakuan khusus kepada siswa dalam pengajaran berbicara. Kondisi tersebut juga terjadi di SMP 2 Gebog. Siswa tidak dapat fokus dan aktif. Hal ini di buktikan dengan persentasi siswa yang mendapatkan nilai tinggi hanya sekitar 36% dan 64% mendapat nilai rendah. Setelah menganalisa permasalahan tersebut, penulis mengasumsikan menggunakan media pembelajaran yaitu cue card untuk meningkatkan kemampuan berbicara siswa. Skripsi ini adalah penelitian tindakan kelas. Dalam penelitian ini, penulis membatasi diskusi dengan menyatakan masalah berikut: bagaimana pencapaian ketrampilan berbicara siswa kelas VII-B dari siswa kelas tujuh SMP 2 Gebog pada tahun ajaran 2013/2014 dengan menggunakan cue card?. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menggambarkan pencapaian ketrampilan berbicara siswa kelas VII-B dari siswa kelas tujuh SMP 2 Gebog pada tahun ajaran 2013/2014 dengan menggunakan cue card sebagai media pengajaran. Ada empat langkah dalam melakukan Penelitian Tindakan Kelas yaitu perencanaan, pelaksanaan, observasi, dan refleksi. Penelitian ini dilakukan dalam tiga siklus. Siklus pertama adalah bagaimana mengekspresikan berterima kasih dan meminta maaf, mengekspresikan suka dan tidak suka, dan daftar belanja. Dalam hasilnya, ketrampilan berbicara siswa meningkat dari siklus I sampai siklus III. Pada siklus I, rata-rata nilai ketrampilan berbicara siswa adalah 71.06, pada siklus II rata-rata nilai ketrampilan berbicara siswa adalah dan pada siklus III rata-rata nilai ketrampilan berbicara siswa adalah Selain itu, aktivitas siswa dan guru ditingkatkan dan masalah yang dihadapi oleh guru berkurang pada setiap siklus. Oleh karena itu, penulis dapat menyimpulkan bahwa penggunaan cue card dapat meningkatkan ketrampilan berbicara siswa kelas VII- B pada kelas tujuh dari SMP 2 Gebog pada Tahun Akademic 2013/2014. Mengacu pada penelitian tindakan ini, penulis memberikan beberapa saran. Pertama, dia menyarankan bahwa guru bahasa Inggris harus mencoba untuk menggunakan cue card sebagai salah satu media pembelajaran. Kedua, guru bahasa Inggris harus mendorong siswa untuk meningkatkan ketrampilan berbahasa mereka dengan memberikan lebih banyak praktek dan latihan, seperti menceritakan kembali sebuah cerita, melakukan pidato, berlatih dialog, dan sebagainya. x
