CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Language is a system
for the expression of meaning. It’s primary function is for interaction and
communication. Language is used by human in order to know and understand each
other. As we know that God created human in different condition and character,
so they need to interact among people.
As a foreign language
in Indonesia, english is learned seriously by many people to have a good
prospect in the community of International world. Recently, English become
important. Since it’s important, English is taught widely at formal school
startingfrom elementary school up to universities , even at informal school
course.
There are for skill in
learning English they are listening, speaking, reading and writing. Speaking is
very important bacause speaking and human being cannot be separated from each
other. Speaking is used to express their ideas and to communicate to people in
civilized world.
Speaking seems
intuitively the most important skill to master. The success is measured in
terms of the ability to carry out conversation in language speaking in an
interactive process of constructing meaning that involves producing, receiving,
and processing information. Speaking is very important because by mastering
speaking skill, people can carry out conversation with others, give the ideas
and exchange the information with others.
In speaking, students
should master the elements of speaking, such as vocabularies, pronunciation,
grammar, and fluency. As a foreign learner in Indonesia, many students have
amount vocabularies and mastering the grammatical structure but the still have
difficulty in speaking. This problem also appears at English education department
students’ of LuwukTompotika
University.
The students’
difficulties occur when they speak English. This caused by students’ limitation
in mastering the component of speaking. Beside it, students practise speaking
English rarely. They only have a little chance to practise speaking English out
of class because most of their friend speak in Indonesia.
Students’ speaking
problem can be solved by giving a lot chance to them for practicing English
either in the classroom or out of the classroom. Practicing speaking English in the
classroom should be interested with appropriate technique in order to make
students speaking skill can be developed and the process of learning can be
enjoyable. One of technique can be used in teaching speaking is debate. Debate
is technique to develop verbal communication and critical thinking skill.
Debate is presented as
a valuable learning activity for teaching critical thinking and developing
communication skills. Debating is an effective pedagogical technique because of
the level of responsibility for learning and active involvement by all
students.
Based on the problem
above, the researcher decides to carry out a research entitled “DEVELOPING SPEAKING
SKILL OF ENGLISH EDUCATION DEPARTMENT STUDENTS’ THROUGH DEBATE TECHNIQUE AT LUWUK TOMPOTIKA UNIVERSITY”.
Students’ speaking skill hoped can be
developed after implementing of debate technique.
1.2.PROBLEM STATEMENT

Debate Technique
Technique
is the specific activities manifested in classroom that were consistent with a
method and therefore in harmony with an approach as well. Debates can present
opportunities for students to engange in using extended chunks of language for
a porpuse to convincingly defend one side of an issue.
A
debate is a type of role play where students are asked to take sides on an
issue and defend their positors.It can be defined that debate technique is an
activity of teaching speaking where students are divided in different sides of
an issue and have to defend their opinions. Students have a lot of
opportunities to practise speaking through this technique.
CHAPTER 2
REVIEW OF THE RELATED LITERATUR
2.1.
Previous of study
There are many related
theses belong to this research.
1). A research Zainul
Muttaqin (3104374) Tarbiyah Faculty IAIN Walisongo Semarang has conducted a
study ‘teaching’ conversation Gambits to Enhance students’ communicative
competence in English debate (An action research with WEC Walisongo English
club of IAIN Walisongo Semarang year 2008/2009)’. This research found the
students of WEC got a good level the five components of students’ communicative
competence in English debate such as the ability in using gambits,
vocabularies, grammatical sructure, fluency and speech contest. In the last
result students got average score 8.0 that mean the students have a good level
in English debate after being taught the gambits.
2). Canna Wiwitanto
(2201464578) language and Arts faculty Semarang state University in his study
‘The use of Australian Parliamentary debate system as an English interactive
program based on disciplined electricsm approach to implement KTSP in teaching
speaking (an action research of the year eleven of science program of senior
high school 11 Semarang in academic year 2009/2010)’. He concluded that debate
which is applied to teach students class X1 students of senior high school was
an effective technique. It could encourage the students to explore their
knowledge as well as to speak and it was proven by the statististical result
analysis of pre and post test that by using debate to teach speaking could
improve the students speaking skill. The T-test result (13.64) was higher than
table (1.55) at 0.05 alpha level of significant.
Both theses are
difference from this thesis. The first previous thesis stated that the research
is conducted to the member of WEC at IAIN Walisongo Semarang. The thesis is
focused on the teaching conversation gambits in enchancing students
communicative ability in English debate.
The second previous
research talked about teaching speaking use Australasian parliamentary debate
system to implement KTSP. This research conducted in the eleven grader of
senior high school.
This research of course
difference from both previous theses. This thesis is focused on the students
speaking skill. The reseacher implements debate technique in order to improve
students speaking skill.
2.2.
Concepts of Speaking
2.2.1.
Definition of speaking
Speaking is one of
language skill which is very important to be mastered by students in order to
be a good communicator. Speaking is the verbal use of language to communicative
with others. Speech is about making choices students must choose how to
interact in expressing themselves and formany social relationship through
speech.
According to Hall
speaking in an ability that is for granted, learned as it is that is for
granted, learned as it is through process of socialization throuhg
communicating. Speaking is making use of language in ordinary voice: uttering
words: making speech.
In short speaking can
be as the way to carry out feeling through words, even conversations with
other. It means that human use words and phares in interactive process of
constructing meaning of speaking.
2.2.2.Elements
of speaking
Many students have
diffculties in speaking. They are many elements of speaking that must be
mastered by students in order to be a good speaker:
1).Connected speech:
effective speakers of English need to be able not only to produce the
individual phonemes of English, but also to use fluent connected speech. In
connected speech sound are modified, omitted, added, or weakened. It is for
this reason that we should involve students in activities designed
specifically.
2).Expressive devices :
native of english change the pitch and stress of particular parts of
utterances, vary volome and speed, and show by other physical and non verbal
how they are feeling. The use of these devices contributes to the ability to
convey meaning. They allow the extra expressions of emotion and intensity,
students should be able to deplay at least some of such supra segmental
features and devices in the same way if they are to be fully effective
communications.
3).Lexis and grammar,
spontaneous speech is marked by the use of the number of common lexical
phrases, especially in their performance of certain language function. Teachers
should therefore supply variety of phrases for different functions, such as:
greeting, agreeing and disagreeing.
4).Negotiation language
: effective speaking benefits from the negotiatory language we use to seek
clarification and to show the structure of what we are saying, we often need
ask for clarification when we are listening to someone else talk.
Speaking is not only
having amount of vocabularies and knowing the grammatical structures, but also
mastering all elements of speaking above. All messages we delivered will be
acceptable by all communicants if we mastered those elements.
2.2.3.
Teaching speaking
Teaching speaking is
started at teaching the students how to speak in English as their foreign
language, for then ask them to be able to pronounce the new language
accurately. It’s continued then to guide students to a point where they can
begin to judge whether their sound productions are correct or not. At this
point, teacher is no longer primarily to correct, but he or she is supposed to
encourage students to practise speaking the target language.
Mean while, teacher
should be able to encourage students speaking some sounds, repeating, and
imitiating him/her. Finally, the students are required to be used to practice
and do oral language.
2.2.4.Characteristics
of spoken language
Speaking skill is seen
as somewhat difficult for some language learners. Here, a speaker should at
least pronounce the words well, choose the suit dictions, and try to do
grammatically correct though, perhaps in any cases, it is common when a speaker
speaks without having good attention at accuracy or fluency. Brown says that
there are eight characteristics of spoken language can make oral performance
easy as well as, in some cases, difficult.
1).Clustering
Fluent speech is phrasa,
not word by word. Learners can organize their output both cognitively and
physically through such clustering.
2).Redundancy
The speaker has an opportunity to make meaning clearer
through the redundancy of language. Learners can capitalize on this features of
spoken language.
3).Reduced forms
Contractions, elisions,
reduced vowels, etc. All form special problems in teaching spoken English.
Students who dont’s learn colloquial contractions can sometimes develop a
stilied, bookish quality of speaking that in turn stigmatize them.
4).Performance
variables
One of the advantages
of spoken language is that the process of thinking as you speak, allows you to
manifest a certain number of performance hesitations, pauses, backtracting, and
corrections. Learners can actually be taught how to pause and hesitate. For
example, in English our “thinking time’ is not silent : we insert certain
“fillers” such us uh, um, well, you know, I mean, like, etc. One of the most
salient differences between native and nonnative speakers of a language is in
their hesitation phenomena.
5).Colloquial language
Make sure our students
are reasonably well acquainted with the words, idioms, and phrases of
colloquial language and that they get practice in producing these forms.
6).Rate of delivery
Another salient characteristic
of fluency is rate of delivery. One of our tasks in teaching spoken English is
to help learners achive an acceptable speed along with other attributes of
fluency.
7).Stress, Rhythm, and
Intonation
This is most important characteristic
of English pronunciation. The stress-timed rhythm of spoken English and its
intonation patterns convey important messages.
8).Interaction
Learning to produce
waves of language in a vacuum without interlocutors. Would rob speaking skill
of its richest component : the creativity of conversational negotiation.
This analysis shows how easily speaking skill can be accommodated withinthis
particular view of language in the classroom, he/she needs them to take part in
a process where not only involves a knowledge of the target language, but also
a general knowledge of interaction between the speaker and hearer in order that
meanings and negotiate meanings are made clear. For example, the hearer may
respond or give feedback as to whether the hearer has understood or not what
the speaker has just said.
2.2.5.The
factors of speaking skill
No language skill is so
difficult to assess with precision as speaking ability, and for this reason it
seemed wise to defer our consideration of oral production tests until last.
Moreover, some of the problems involved in the evaluation of speaking skill occur
in other forms of language testing. Like writing, speking is a complex skill
requiring the simultaneous use of a number of different abilities which often
develop at different rates.
Either five compenents are
generally recognized in analyses of the speech process :
1). Pronunciation
including the segmental features-vowels and consonants and the stress and
intonation patterns.
2). Grammar
3). Vocabulary
4). Fluency : able to speak a language easily and well
5).Comprehension. For
oral communication certainly requires a subject to respond to speech as well as
to initiate it.
The five factors of
speaking skill above have important role in speaking. By mastering all the
factors, people can produce good speech.
2.2.6.
Techniques in Teaching Speaking
Many of classroom
speaking activities which are currently used are :
1). Acting from script
This activity
encourages students to act out scenes from plays or their course books,
sometimes filming the result. Students will often act out dialogues they have
written themselves. This frequently involves them in coming out to the front of
the class.
2). Communication games
Speaking activities
based on games are often a useful way of giving students valuable practice,
where younger learners are involved. Games based activities can involve
practice of oral strategies such as describing, predicting, simplifying, and
asking for feedback.
3). Discussion
One of the reasons that
discussion fail is that students are reluctant to give an opinion in front of
the whole class, particularly if they cannot think of anything to say and they are not confident of the language
they might use to say it. Many students feel extremely expose in discussion
situations.
4).Prepared talks
A popular kind of
activity is the prepared talk where students make a presentation on a topic of
their own choice. Students should speak from notes rather than from a script.
Prepared talks represent a defined and useful speaking genre, and if properly
organized, can be extremely interesting for both speaker and listener.
5). Questionnaires
Questionnaires are
useful because by being pre planed they ensure that both questioner and
respondent have something to say each other. Depending on how tighly design
they are, they may well encourage the natural use of certain receptive language
pattern and thus be situated in the middle of our communication continuum.
Students can design questionnaires on any topic that is appropriate. As they do
so the teacher can act as a resource, helping them in the design.
6). Simulation and
role-play
Many students derive
greet benefit from simulation and role-play. Students simulate a real life
encounter as if they were doing so in the real world. A simulation and
role-play can be used to encourage general oral fluency to train students for
specific situation.
7).Debate
Debate is an activity
in which opposite points of view are presented and argued. Debate can present
opportunities for students to engage in using extended chunks of language for a
purpose : to convincingly defend one side of an issue.
All speaking activities
above encourage students to practice speaking in classroom. Teacher should choose
appropriate activities above based on the level of the students. Every teaching
and learning process can be enjoyable if teacher gives the appropriate activity
based on students levels. Beside in the process of transferring knowledge can
be done easily.
2.2.7.The
Roles of Teacher in Speaking Class
As with any other type
of classroom procedure, teacher need to play a number of different role during
the speaking activities. However, three have particular relevance if teacher
are trying to get students to speak fluently :
1). Prompter : students
sometimes get lost, cannot think of what to say next, or in some other way lose
the fluency teacher expect of them. However, teacher may be able to help them
and the activity to progress by offering discrete suggestions. If this can be
done supportively without discrupting the discussion, or focing students out of
role it will stop the sense of frustration that some students feel when they
come to a ‘deed end’ of language or ideas.
2). Participant :
teacher should be good animators when asking students to produce language.
Sometime this can be achieved by setting up and activity clearly and
enthusiasm. At other times, however, teachers may want to participate in
discussions or role-plays themselves. That way they can prompt covertly,
introduce new information to help the activity along, ensure continuing
students engagement, and generally maintain a creative atmosphere.
3). Feedback provider :
the vexed question of when and how to give feedback in speaking activities is
answered by considering carefully the effect of possible differences
approaches. When studentsare in the middle of a speaking activity,
over-correction may inhibit them and take the communicativeness out of the
activity. On the other hand, helpful and gentle correction my get students out
of difficult misunderstandings and hesitations. Everything depends upon our
tact and the appropriacy of the feedback teacher gives in particulars
situation.
Teacher plays big roles
in teaching learning process. Speaking teacher should play the roles above in
order to make the speaking class runs well.
2.3.
Concepts of Debate
2.3.1.
Definition of debate
A debate is a speaking
situation in which opposite points of view are presented and argued. A debate
is about the real or simulated issue. The learners’ roles ensure that they have
adequate shared knowledge about the issue and different opinions or interest to
defend. At the end of activity, they may have to reach a concrete decisionor
put the issue to a vote.
Debate is data in which
people take up positions, per sue arguments and expound on their opinions on a
range or matters, with or without some sort of lead figure or chair person.
Debate is one of
effective speaking activity which encourages students to improve their
communication skill. Debates are most appropriate for intermediate and advonced
learners who have been guided in how to prepare for them.
Based on the
definitions above, it can be concluded that debate is an activity in which
students take up positions on issue and defend their position.
2.3.2.
The Benefits of Debate
Debate as a
communicative and a interactive technique is an intersted activity to be
practiced in the classroom. Debate has many benefits for students :
1). Improve students’
critical thinking. In debating, every students is proposed to analyze a problem
critically.
2). Develop students’
communication skill. Debaters spend many hours assembling and practicing
hundreds of public speeches on topics of national importance.
3). Questioning skill
develop in and stuggle-often in the face of disappointment and defeat.
4). They are capable of
making and defending informed choices about complex issues outside of their own
area of interest because they do so on a daily basis.
5). Debate is thus not
only a way to connect students with academic subjects in meaningful ways, it is
also a way to re-connect students to public life if they have been overcome by
feelings of alienation.
6). Policy debate
specifically teachers students to adopt multiple perspectives which describe as
one of the most important problem solving skills.
Because of some
benefits above, debate really need to be practiced in speaking classroom. It is
appropriate for students to improve their speaking skill.
2.3.3.The
Parts of debate
In
the debate technical system, we will get some items which relate to the debate
process. The following are some items related to debate :
1). Motion
The topic debated is
called a motion. Usually, motion stars with world like ‘’this house’’ (TH) or
‘’this house’’ believes that (TH) or ‘’this house believes (THBT)’’.
Both affirmative and
negative teams are debating upon a motion which should be debatable and
impartial. Debatable means that the motion is still falsifiable can be danied
in some ways. Impartial imples a meaning that the motion should stand in the
middle of neutral, it doesn’t incline to any sides. For example, this house
believes that (THBT) e-book contributes for developmental education.
2). Definition
Debaters should ‘’down
to earth’’ or see the current issue happened in society. Definition can be done
in two ways, word by word definition or the global definition. In fact, the
world E book is really heard thus we need to define it first. Or anyway, when
we heard motion, ‘’that sex education must be socialized in the school’’ what
we need to do is giving the global meaning on it.
3). Theme line
To agree or disagree
towards a motion, the reason must lie on a strong ground that could cover the
whole argumentation. Theme line is the underlying reason which answers the big
question ‘’why’’ one side of the house supports or opposes a motion. Theme line
is what a team needs to proof. It is also the main reason why a team attacks
the opponent’s case.
4). Argument
A debate is like a
battle of argument, in which each team stands on their position, attacks the
opposite and defends their own case. The praiseworthy jobs can be done well by
using critical and logical thinking. Argument is the fragment of thought to
support the theme line.
5). Rebuttal
To win a debate,
debaters not only need to build a strong case but they also have to attack
their opponent’s arguments and provide strong defense from any attacks. That is
why, rebuttal is one of the key to get the crown of victory. Basically, there
are two kinds of rebuttal.
Global rebuttal, it is
an attack against the main core of the opponent’s case, the theme line.
Consequently, their case is clumbing down. Detailed rebuttal, it is an attack
towards each arguments or example.
6). Sum-up / closing
Closing is simply
concluding what has been through. A nice summary preferable. Before start
debating, debaters should know these parts of debate in order to be a good
debater. It also hoped that debate will run success.
2.3.4.A
debate classroom
The form of debate is
varied in use. In speaking classroom, debate can be taken such the following
procedures :
1). Dividing students
in two teams
2). Selecting debate
topic and assigning the two teams to debate the topic
3). Ensuring that the
participants have time beforehand to prepare for the arguments and to collect
supporting data to present during the debate
4). Presenting the
topic and format of the debate
5). An example format
of the debate as following :
a). Side 1 present
opening arguments, with three members each giving a statement
b).Side 2 present
opening arguments, with three members each giving a statement
c). Side 1 has chance
for rebuttal
d). Side 2 has chance
for rebuttal
e). Side 1 has chance
for a second rebuttal
f). Side 2 has chance
for a second rebuttal
g). Side 1 takes time
for a conclusion
h). Side 2 takes time
for a conclusion
Debating usually
consist of three members in every them, although sometimes four members in many
debates. Debates are varied in use, sometimes it used based on the number of
students in the classroom and the level of students.
2.3.5Debate
to improve speaking skill
Speaking activities and
speaking practice in the classroom should enable students to gain experience
using all the ‘’prerequisities’’ for effective oral communication. What make
the classroom activity useful for speaking practice? The most important feature
of a classroom activity is to provide an authentic opportunity for the students
to get individual meanings across and utilize every area of knowledge they have
in the second or foreign language. They should have the opportunity and be
encouraged to become flexible users of their knowledge, always keeping the
communicate goal in mind. One of the ways to encourage students to improve
their speaking skill is buy usng debate.
Debate can present
opportunities for students to engage in using extended chunks of language for a
purpose, convincingly defend one side of an issue. The debate is probably more
often used in content area classrooms in ESL classrooms. Debates are most
appropriate for intermediate and advanced learners who have been guided in how
to prepare for them. Debates require extensive prepararation by learners, call
for interaction in groups and make use of at least the following language
functions : describing, explaining, giving and asking for information, agreeing
and disagreeing.
Debate is speaking
class is aimed to improve students’ critical thinking and students’
communication skill. By performing debate students have a lot of opportunities
in practicing speaking. Students’ involvement is very important in implementing
debate.
2.3.6.
Strengths and Weaknesses of Debate in Speaking classroom
Every technique that
applied in process learning strengths
and
weaknesses. It is also happens in debate technique. Debate has much strength.
They are :
1). Train the students
to cooperate well with other friend. In debating, students are trained to work
in team and hoped to have good cooperation each other.
2). Train the students
to express their opinion. Opinion is very needed in process of debating.
Students are encouraged in expressing their opinion to defend their position.
3).Students not bored,
but very enjoy with debate activity. Every student takes a role in debating, so
they are actively join the activity.
4). Improve the
students’ speaking ability. Speaking skill automatically improved when students
practice debating, bacause they have a lot of opportunity in practicing
speaking.
Although debate has many
strengthens in learning process, it has many weaknesses too. The weaknesses are
stated as below :
1). Debate is only used
for certain subject. Debate technique only can be used for specific subject,
such as subject that related with agreeing and disagreeing and giving argument.
2). Debate needs long
times and preparations. Many preparations need in debating in order to make
debate runs well. Students should prepare their arguments before debate to make
them easier to attack the opponent’s opinion.
3). Make the students’
emotional in defending their argument. Many students can’t manage their emotion
when they defend their argument.

METHODOLOGY
OF THE RESEARCH
3.1 Research Design
In
this research, the researcher used classroom action research (CAR). Action
research is a kind of research that is conducted in the classroom by a teacher.
According to Kemmis Mc Taggart includes four components of classroom action
research are planning, action, observation and reflection.
(Adapted
from Kemmis and MCTaggart)
3.2 Setting and Time of Research
The
researcher held research at Luwuk
Tompotika
University,
which is located beside SMA
Neg.1 Luwuk, Jl.Diponegoro
94783,
Luwuk
Banggai
– Sulawesi Tengah Indonesia. LuwukTompotika
University is college was founded since 1983 and has carried out seventeen time graduation.The college
is still relatively old
compared to the existing college in the Luwuk Banggai regency district.
Nevertheless Luwuk
Tompotika
University
has product graduations are intellectual and successful because a lot of work
in the Luwuk
Banggai
regency district even Luwuk
Banggai
regency disrtict outside. Luwuk
Tompotika
University also has master professors educated and achievement no doubt.
The
researcher did the Action Research on 7 July 2015 up to 19 July 2015. The
subject of the research is semester II students of Luwuk Tompotika University.
There are 20 students in semester II.
3.3 The Classroom Action Research Procedures
The classroom action research using
Kemmis Mc Taggart’s design consists of four phase within one cycle. To make
clear what happend in very phase. Here are the explanations :
1. Planning
In this phase, the
writer design a lesson plan from the syllabus which is consulted with English
lecture, creating the topics that are appropriate with the matter, preparing
materials that will be used at the cycle.
2. Action
the
planning strategy will be applied in teaching learning process
3. Observation
The researcher prepares
the observation paper to know class condition when the action done, then the
researcher and the collaborate (English speaking lecturer) discuss about the
result of observation, what the problem faced when teaching learning process
and look for good solution to solve the problem. In this phase, the researcher
observes and takes notes during teaching learning process.
4. Reflection
Reflection means to
analyze the result based on the data that have been collected to determine the
next action in the next cycle. In this phase, the researcher could observe the
activity that results any process, the progress happened, also about positives
and negatives sides.
3.4 Technique of Data Collection
The technique and methods which are
used by the researches to collect the data are observation and test.
1. Observation
Classroom observation
is an observation that is focused on the understanding of how social event of
the language classroom are enacted. In this classroom observation, the objects
of observation are students’ activities in English language teaching learning.
The researcher used the checklist observation to make it more systematic,
containing list of students activities and response or happening which might
happen. Observation is intended to see and to know about the condition of class
and students. Process of teaching and learning and learning through debate to
know the obstacles appear during teaching learning process, the students
motivation, to see their difficulties, their problem, and their understanding
about the material given that can be seen from their attitude, behavior, and
response.
2. Test
Test is important part
of every teaching and learning experience. Both testing and teaching are so
closely interrelated that it is virtually impossible to work in either field
with the other. Test may be constructed primarily as devices to reinforce
learning and to motivate the students’ performance from learners with the
purpose of measuring their attainment of specified criteria.
The researcher used an
achievement test to measure the students’ progress in speaking. The forms of
tests are spoken test in the form of debate. From those forms, the researcher
can get score directly the specific learning. The scoring can be done quickly
and easily. There are five aspects of assessment in speaking. They are five
aspects of assessment in speaking. They are vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation,
fluency and comprehension.
3.5 Technique of Data Analysis
Technique
of the data analysis in this research :
Following formula as
proses by Sugiono (2007:123)
Total gained score
Maximum score
3.6 Criteria of the Action Success
Classroom
Action Research (CAR) is able to be called successful if it can exceed the
criteria which has been determined. In this study the research will succed when
there is 70% of students could pass the assessment score ≥ 70 based on the
minimal mastery level criterion-Kriteria Ketuntasan Minimal (KKM) which is
adapted from the Tentena Christian University.
