G. Literature Review
1. Concept of Teaching
Teaching is an activity of someone how to show or help the learner to learn
how to do something, giving instruction, guiding in the study of something,
therefore the learner can understand well what the meaning of the teacher.
According to Brown (2000:7) teaching is guiding and facilitating learning
enabling the learner to learn, setting the conditions for learning.
According to Grasha (2002:113) teaching is an activity where one person
tries to facilitate in another person an appreciation of complexities involved
within an area of study. Teaching involves getting people to think critically about
such issues.
Based on explanation above, the writer concluded that teaching is a
profession of someone to gives information and knowledge to help the learner to
learn conducted by using combination of art, science, and skill. It is a necessary
one, and can be very rewarding when we see our students’ progress, it could be a
satisfaction for the teacher when they see the learner can get useful knowledge
and useful for people around them. Besides that, an English teacher must have the
interesting strategy in teaching English to motivate the learners to be active in the
classroom activity. A good teaching will educate the learners to be responsible for
their learning.

2. Concept of Speaking
Brown (2000:267), state that speaking is a productive skill that can be
directly empirically observed, those observations are invariable colored by the
accuracy and effectiveness of test taker’s listening skill, which necessarily
compromises is the reliability and validity of an oral production test.
Speaking allows us to voice and explore out thoughts, it is also allow us to
develop new thoughts as we create ideas, and then communicate it directly by
using verbal language. Tarigan (2008:1) says that when we practice our language
skill, It mean that we practice our thinking.
Based on the explanation above the writer concluded that speaking is
element speak up ability that including knowledge, background knowledge, and
response to the communication.
According to Brown (2000:271), there are six types of classroom speaking
performance:
a. Imitative
A very limited portion of classroom speaking time may legitimately be spent in
the “human tape recorder” speech, where learners are, for example, practicing
and international contour, trying to pinpoint a certain vowel sound, etc.
b. Intensive
Intensive speaking goes one step beyond to imitative to include any speaking
performance that is designed to practice some phonological or grammatical
aspect of language.
c. Responsive
A good deal of students’ speech in the classroom is responsive: short replies to
teacher or student-initiated question comments.
d. Transactional (dialogue)
Transactional language, carried out for the purpose of conveying or exchanging
specific information, is an extended form of responsive language.
e. Interpersonal (dialogue)
5
The other form of conversation mentioned in the previous chapter was
interpersonal dialogue, carried more the purpose of maintaining social
relationships than for the transmission of facts and information.
f. Extensive (monologue)
Finally, students at intermediate to advanced levels are called on to give
extended monologues in the form of oral report, summaries, or perhaps short
speeches.
6
In positive interdependence, the members are obliged to rely on one another
to achieve the goal. If any team members fail to their part, everyone suffers
consequences.
2) Individual accountability
In this element all students in a group are held accountable for doing their
share of the work and for mastery of all of the material to be learned.
3) Face-to-face promotive interaction
Although some of the group work may be parceled out and done individually,
some must be done interactively, with group members providing one another
with feedback, challenging one another’s conclusions and reasoning, and
perhaps most importantly, teaching and encouraging one another
4) Appropriate use of collaborative skills.
Here students are encouraged and helped to develop and practice trust-
building, leadership, decision-making, communication, and conflict
management skills.
5) Grouping processing
The last elements of collaborative learning strategy is group processing, in
this element the team member set group goals, periodically assess what they are
doing well as a team, and identify changes they will make to function more
effectively in the future.
7
4) Allow the students to clarify their thoughts and train their comments
before speaking in front of class.
5) Give the opportunity for students to find the opinion from other students
who possible agree and support their opinion before that opinion was
delivered in to public.
8
c) The teacher give example of bargaining dialog
In a traditional market there are two friends named Rifky and Obet. They are
looking for goldfish, they are going to make a party at Rifky’s house by roasting
goldfish.
Rifky : we should buy cheaper goldfish because our money is not much
Obet : sure, that’s why we have to round to get the cheaper price
Rifky : but I’m tired. We have rounded the whole part of this market but
the price of all goldfish is almost the same
Obet : Look at there…! There’s a goldfish Fishmonger that we have not
been there yet
Rifky : ok, come on
Obet : what the price of this goldfish in a kilo?
Fishmonger : It’s 27.000 rupiahs a kilo
Rifky : That’s too expensive, may I bargain?
Fishmonger : How much can you pay, boys?
Obet : what about 20.000 rupiahs a kilo?
Fishmonger : Ok, you may take it.
Rifky : thank you

I. Related Previous Study
First relevant study that was written by Huzaipa (2014). In her study entitle
“Improving Students’ Speaking Ability By Using Inside Outside Circle Strategy
To Seventh Grade Student Of Mts Ishlahul Ummah Lubai”. In her research, he
applied the strategy to improve students’ speaking skill and found the number of
students’ ability to focus what the students would speak up through strategy.
There are similarity and differences between the previous study and this
research. The similarity was in the use of the same teaching speaking. The
differences were on the method of teaching, limitation of the problem, population
and samples, and research methodology.
J. Research Methodology
1. Method of Study
This research is using Classroom Action Research as methodology.
According to Arikunto (2010:130), classroom action research is a study toward
activities that are intentionally appeared and happened in a class. In this research,
divided into pre cycle, first cycle and second cycle. The researcher will
collaborate with the English teacher when conduct the research.
10
Planning in cycle in action research:
a. Pracycle
Before implementation action research by collaborative learning strategy for
eleventh grade students at SMK Trisakti Baturaja, carry out as usual.
b. Cycle 1
Pre-Observation
Based on my observation in SMK Trisakti Baturaja especially eleventh grade
students and do interview with the teacher in this school, the researcher get
two problem to find out in teaching and learning speaking. There are: students
less motivation in speaking English and they don’t have the best strategy to
improving their speaking skill.
1) Planning
In planning phase, the researcher plan the cycle that would be given to the
students in the class. It aimed to determine collaborative learning strategy that
the researcher would use. The researcher also made lesson plan for each
cycle, select the materials from textbook, and prepare speaking test for the
students. In order to get data, the researcher teach the students by use
collaborative learning strategy and ask students to speaking test. Process of
teaching will take one meeting and the process of analyzing and discussing
the result of the observation and the test will take three days in each cycle.
2) Implementing
In this step, the researcher will teach the material by using Collaborative
Learning Strategy with the lesson plan and prepare the material.
3) Observing
In this phase, the researcher observed all the activities that happen in the
class. The aspects in observation are sources of data, the instrument use in
collecting data, and the technique for collecting data. So, this phase discuss
11
about the process of gathering all relevant data occurred during the
implementation of the action.
4) Reflecting
Here, the researcher will discuss about the strength and the weakness of a
cycle to determine what to do in the next cycle and to determine whether or
not result of the cycle is satisfactory.
c. Cycle II
In the cycle II same with the cycle I but here planning that use in learning
cycle II, based on achievement reflection of cycle I.
K. Operational Definition
The title of this research is “Improving students’ motivation to speak
English through collaborative learning strategy for the eleventh grade students at
SMK Trisakti Baturaja. To avoid misunderstanding some terms use in the titles
are operationally.
1. Teaching
Teaching is process transferring knowledge by teacher to the students. In
this case the teacher applying collaborative learning Strategy to teaching
speaking.
2. Speaking
Speaking is the process of building and sharing meaning through the use of
verbal and non-verbal symbols.
3. Collaborative Learning
Collaborative learning is an instructional method in which learners work in
groups toward a common academic goal.

L. Research Variable
According to Fraenkle and Wallen (2007:31) variables as characteristic that
is not always the same, any characteristic that varies. There are two variables in
this research, dependent variable and independent variable. The independent
variables are influenced the dependent variables.
The title of this study is “Improving the students’ motivation to speak
English through collaborative learning strategy for the eleventh grade students at
SMK Trisakti Baturaja”. By this title, independent variable (X) Using
collaborative learning Strategy, and dependent variable (Y) is students speaking
skill.
M. Participant
The participant in this study is Eleventh grade students at SMK Trisakti
Baturaja.
And another participant in this research is English teacher in SMK Trisakti
Baturaja, he will help to observe in the class and also will help the researcher to
analyze the data and make the planning for each cycle.

make test based on the syllabus, the test should represent the material that will be
teach. A valid instrument had high validity. Conversely, instruments that are less
valid mean to have low validity. By doing this, the researcher hopes that the test
material really measures improving students’ speaking skill.

2. Reliability
The Reliability refers to the consistency of the test score. According to
Cohen, et al (2005:117) “Reliability is essentially a synonym for consistency and
replicability over time, over instruments and over groups of respondents”. It is
Concern with precision and accuracy.
To estimate the instrument is reliable or not, the writer will find the
reliability by using the Cronbach Alpha Test. The writer will use the SPSS 19
program to calculate the reliability of the instruments. To know whether the test
items are reliable or not, the writer will conclude two hypotheses as follow:
a. If the Cronbach Alpha Point is more than 0.70, it mean that the items were
reliable.
b. If the Conbach Alpha Point is less than 0.70, it mean that the items were not
reliable.
P. Technique for Analyzing the Data
