CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
This chapter deals with background problem
statement, the objective of the research, significance of the research, and
scope of the research.
A.
Background
Language is means
of communication, and it is an integral part of human life. Therefore, everyone
must be able to use it in speaking, to master speaking skill is one of the
difficulties in learning English. Speaking is one way of finding information
through oral communication in the world becomes more and more useful. According
to the curriculum, the teaching English in Indonesia should emphasize four
skills, namely reading, listening, writing, and speaking. To know English
perfectly these four skills should be taught separately. However, the students’
in general can read and write English better than speak it. According to Rasyid
(1997:14) stated that the teaching of English in Indonesian school has become
perceived and realized need. The perception and realization of this need are
based on the nation wide. Assumption that good mastery of the language will
instrumentally function not only as the key to many doors to development
In most conversation, the world flows with
just the least of mental urge. People think about what to say, who they are
talking to, where they are, and they also need to know how many times to talk.
So, focusing on their accuracy and fluency is the main learning process to get developing
of the students in their speaking performance.
Moreover,
the students get optimal standard achievement in speaking because they do not
know what their aims to speak English, the condition and situation in the classroom
have not been designed naturally for speaking, and the student still lack in
use vocabulary, correct grammatical and acceptable interaction. Therefore, the
teacher must regard how the classroom interaction should best be designed to
cater the students’ communication need. In this case for improving the
students’ speaking ability, the writer is going to carry out the research that emphasize
on the aspect of learning goal, creating the learning process (La Costa in
Sanjaya:2006:105). This strategy is the named “Problem Based Learning
Strategy”.
According to Taufiq, (2009:8) the students should be active
in learning process in choosing to formulate the information, construct the
information, consider and reflect the students experience to determine how knowledge
can be transferred to all situations.
Wilkerson
and Gijselears (1996:86) claim that problem based learning (PBL) is
characterized by a student- centered approach, teacher as “facilitators rather
than disseminators, and open ended problem that “serve as the initial stimulus
and framework for learning.
The instructor plays a critical role in
helping students become self-directed learners and must create classroom
environment in which students “receive systematic instruction in conceptual,
strategic, and reflective reasoning in the context of discipline that will
ultimately make them more successful in later investigation.
