Speaking is one important skill of English to present opinion, idea, and convey
our feeling to the other people, with speaking people can interact to each other.
Based on my observation of teaching practicum in a vocational school, the
students have less confidence in practicing English speaking. In addition to
students' speaking problems, the teacher's media in the classroom also affects the
teaching and learning process. The use of conventional media or traditional media
is still found in the process of teaching speaking in the class. The study had been
conducted on her research in improving students speaking skills by using media is
Vlog.The purpose of this study are 1. To what extent student‘s speaking ability
taught without using video vlogs in procedure text? 2. To what extent student‘s
speaking ability taught using vlogs in procedure text? 3. Is there any significant
difference between students speaking ability taught using vlog in procedure text
and those taught without using vlogs in procedure text? 4. What are the problems
faced by the students in using vlog? The design of this study is quasi-
experimental. The data were gathered through quantitative and qualitative data.
The writer takes XI AKL 2 as a control class and an XI AKL 1as experimental
class. The research instrument is a test. There are two types of tests given, namely
pre-test and post-test. After collecting data, there are significant differences
between the classes taught using vlog and the classes taught without video vlog.
The results of the study can be seen on the post-test after giving treatment. The
mean of score pre test was 57.11 which classified into unsatisfactory and the mean
of score post test was 70.67 which classified into good. The result of t test was
7.16 on the df=35 meanwhile,the value of t table ws got from df=35 so the t-table
was 2.030. So the t test 7.165 is higher than t table 2.030. So it can be concluded
that there is a difference in shows that students might feel not confident at some
situations. Students were mostly not confident in speaking such as speak in front
of class. They also worried about grammatical and pronunciation. Further, the
participants respond that the students feel anxious when do not understand what
the mean of some word in video vlog. Moreover, they thought that they feel anxious because they had limited vocabulary and grammar knowledge. They also
felt difficult to pronounce some word and easy to forget how to pronounce it. It
means that there was a significant difference between the students speaking skill
taught using vlog.
