    CHAPTER I

    INTRODUCTION

    A. Background of Study

    Language is a device which is used by human being to communicate and

    transfer knowledge from time to time. (Oxford Le arner s Pocket Dictionary, 2008:

    247) Language is a system of communication in speech and writing used by

    people of a particular country. It plays an important role in the entire human

    lifetime. Through language one generation can transfer their knowledge to the

    next generation.

    English is universal language. That is not surprising news because there

    are many outstanding universities suggest an applicant to attach English

    proficiency for instance TOEFL, IELST and others. Lots of people use English as

    medium of communication to contact or cooperate among people in difference

    countries in the world. We can take a look how important to master English in our

    country. Even the government sets English as main subject in Elementary School,

    Junior High School, Senior High School and University.

    English subject in Indonesia has several goals; train language skill and

    able to communicate spoken and written to prepare students to confront

    knowledge and technology development in globalization era. The dimension of

    the subject is: listening, speaking, reading, writingand one of four skills has to be

    mastered is listening. In relation to listening skill, the standards of competency for

    the graduates in this country are the competence to understand the meaning in

    interpersonal and transactional oral text, both formally or informally, in the form

  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    15/145

    of recount, narrative, procedure, descriptive, news item, report, analytical

    exposition etc.However it also must be supported by other language components

    such as grammatical, vocabulary and pronunciation.

    Listening comprehension is a key initial step in communication. Good

    communication depends on the way a listener can understand what a speaker says.

    The better students can understand what is being said, the better will be their

    ability to communicate. In addition, they will be better able to notice the

    characteristics of the target language which will help improve their language

    development in all four key skill areas.

    The real goal in most listening is not only to understand every word but

    also to comprehend the information that the listener wants or needs from the

    message. Actually there is misconception in teaching listening in our country.

    Some teachers have tendency to force student to understand as much as possible

    words on the tape. On the contrary, in real life even native speakers do not always

    understand or hear every word when they are talking with someone or watching

    TV but they just take main point of the speaker s utterance.

    Listening in teaching and learning process is often neglected by a

    teacher. The teachers attach the listening aspect of listening skill in lesson plan,

    but they do not teach listening comprehension as they make in the lesson plan.Moreover, the major things have happened in English as a Foreign Language

    (EFL) in our country is that the students rarely taught the listening skill properly.

    They do not even get sufficient portion of learning in the classroom. Teachers in

    Indonesia also would prefer to teach reading, grammar or speaking rather than to

    teach listening as unity of language aspect that must be mastered.

  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    16/145

    In addition, some students in junior high school even senior high school

    grumble when they must confront listening test in national examination that is

    carried out byNational Education Department. When the researcher asks to the

    students what is the most difficult in English national examination? They

    directly said that the most difficult part of English examination is listening.

    Actually, a teacher is an educator. Educators are adults with all abilities

    that can change the mindset of their students from not knowing to knowing and

    mature students. A professional teacher must have ability to design and organize

    the classroom well. One of the most important is the performance of teachers in

    the classroom such as controlling a classroom to create a fun learning

    environment. Thus, teachers must choose the learning methods that are

    appropriate to the characteristics of learners.

    Based on the researcher s observation and interview to the teachers and

    the students of SMAN 2 Salatiga during teaching practice in August to September

    2012, the researcher concluded that the failure of teaching listening was English

    teachers just used traditional technique to teach listening. They provided a

    worksheet and students must find missing words based on the listening on the

    tape. The method was quite good for years but in recent years some students are

    not interested in the listening class. They need learning variations in the class sothat why they are not bored in the class.

    The researcher chooses Student teams-achievement division (STAD) as

    an alternative technique to teach listening comprehension in the classroom. STAD

    is one of the popular methods in cooperative learning that is introduced by John

    Hopkins.

    3. Writer

    The writer hopes that this study can facilitate himself and the English learners in

    Listening Comprehension through Student Teams-Achievement Divisions

    Method (STAD).

    G. Classification of key term

    Here are some definitions as a guidance to understand the terms of this study:

    1. Student Teams-Achievement Divisions Method (STAD)

    Student Teams-Achievement Divisions Method (STAD) is one of the

    simplest cooperative learning method and the best model to start for new

    teachers who use cooperative approach. STAD consists of five components;

    class presentation, team, quiz, scoring and team recognition (Robert E.

    Slavin, 2005, 143). This method is very interesting activity in the classroom

    because the method involves student and teacher to activate their selves in

    teaching and learning process.

    2. Method

    An overall plan for the orderly presentation of language material,

    no part of which contradicts, and all of which is based upon the selected

    approach (Anthony,1963:95).3. Teaching

    Teaching is showing or helping someone to learn how to do

    something, giving instruction, guiding in the study of something (Brown,

    2000: 7). It is activities of that impart knowledge or skill. The activities of

    teaching involve educating, instructing and teaching. Furthermore, teaching

  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    20/145

    listening is a teaching concentrated on listening comprehension of the

    research object.

    4. Improving

    Become or make something or somebody better (Oxford Learne r s

    Pocket Dictionary, 2008: 222). It includes the process of progression in

    human s ability and proficiency.

    5. Listening Comprehension

    Comprehension as the mental process by which listeners take in the

    sounds uttered by a speaker and use them to construct an interpretation of

    what they think the speaker intended to convey (Fauziati, 2005:117).

    Listening is the early skill that humans possess if they do not have listening

    disorder. In listening comprehension Student not only must interpret what

    they hear but pay attention to the speakers as well to catch the meaning.

    6. Action Research

    Classroom Action Research (CAR) is systematic study from a group

    of teachers to conduct actions in learning based on their reflection. It

    indicates that the basic unity of theoretical and practical knowledge (Basrowi,

    2008: 26). Furthermore, Classroom Action Research (CAR) is a research

    designed to assist a teacher to find out what is happening in his or her ownclass and to determine actions for future improvement.

    H. Hypothesis of the Study

    2. General Concept of Teaching

    Biggs (1991) an expert on contemporary cognitive psychology, in

    (http://san-anugrah.blogspot.com/2012/04/belajar.html )stated the concept of

    teaching divides into three, namely:

    a) In quantitative terms, teaching means "the transmission of knowledge" that

    the transmission of knowledge in this case the teacher only needs to master

    the knowledge of their field of study and pass on to his students as well as

    possible.

    b) In terms of institutional teaching means "the efficient orchestration of

    teaching skills", it means the arrangement of all the teaching skills

    efficiently in this sense teachers are required to always be ready to adapt

    different teaching techniques for a variety of different students' talents,

    abilities, and needs.

    c) Quantitative understanding of teaching that is "the facilitation of learning"

    that is an effort to help facilitate student learning activity. Overall

    understanding of the above can be concluded that in principle are teaching

    activities to develop the full potential of the realm of psychological.

    B. General Concept of Listening

    1. Definition of Listening

    Listening is the attending, receiving, interpreting, and responding to

    messages presented aurally (International Listening Association/ILA, 2008: 7).

    That definition explains that listening is not only recognizing the sound but

    also student must get the meaning of listening. If one sentence cannot be heard

    http://san-anugrah.blogspot.com/2012/04/belajar.htmlhttp://san-anugrah.blogspot.com/2012/04/belajar.htmlhttp://san-anugrah.blogspot.com/2012/04/belajar.html

    clearly, it is difficult to understand words, phrases or sentences so that why

    there is so much attention in listening process.

    Listening is the ability to identify and understand what others are

    saying. This process involves understanding a speaker's accent or

    pronunciation, the speaker s grammar and vocabulary, and comprehension of

    meaning (Nurul, 2012: 206).

    From the definition above the writer makes conclusion that listening is

    the process of understanding speech in a first or second language and listening

    involves hearing the speaker s words, understanding the message of a

    speake r s intention.

    2. The Importance of Listening

    Bozorgian (2012) in his research article Listening Skill requires a

    further look into second or foreign language learning stated that The

    important of listening skill for effective communication has been recognized

    almost for a century. In our daily life, listening skill has important role in

    communication. Good communication will happen if the speaker and listener

    have good listening skill to transfer information each other.

    According to Rankinin Bozorgian (2012) listening skill was the most

    dominant skill for the mode of human communication. Listening skill occupiesalmost fifty percentages of our daily communications. In this regard, two

    studies conducted by Ralph and Stevens and Rankin reported that listening

    forty six percentage, speaking thirty percentages, reading sixteen percentages,

    and writing nine percentages involve our daily communication.

    26/145

    From the definition above that listening is very important skill must be

    acquired by any language learner. Practically, there are still many people who

    have lack of listening skill than other skill, especially it is the common problem

    the mostly ESL students find. The writer had experience related to English

    listening comprehension when he was on vocation in Borobudur temple on

    May 6 th, 2012 there were several students of Islamic senior high school from

    Central Java practiced their English with foreigners they were good at English

    speaking and they could speak English clearly but they had difficulities in

    understanding of the foreigners English speaking. That case showed that

    listening comprehension cannot be separatedfrom one of crucial English skills

    must be mastered in English.

    2. Type of listening

    There are many types of listening in English and one of the popular

    theories isWolvin and Coakelytheory. They formulated the types of listening

    into five types according to the purpose of listening

    (http://www.teachingenglish.org) as follows:

    a. Comprehensive listening

    Comprehensive listening or listening comprehension is where the

    focus is on understanding the message. The writers consider this as the basisfor the next three types of listening. However, the problem can come in the

    form of understanding. Depending on many factors (both individual and

    social) students can end up understanding the same message in different,

    different ways. Lot of work in teaching listening in the classroom has to

    http://www.teachingenglish.org/http://www.teachingenglish.org/
  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    27/145

    happen here in facilitating the students to develop their comprehension

    skills.

    b. Discriminative listening

    Discriminative listening is where the objective is to distinguish

    sound and visual stimuli. This objective does not take into account the

    meaning; instead the focus is largely on sounds. In a basic level class this

    can be as simple as distinguishing the gender of the speaker or the number

    of the speakers etc. As mentioned before the focus is not on comprehending;

    but on accustoming the ears to the sounds. If somebody thinks he or she can

    see that this is where L1 listening begins - the child responds to sound

    stimulus and soon can recognize its parents' voices amidst all other voices.

    Depending on the level of the students, the listening can be discriminating

    sounds to identifying individual words.

    c. Therapeutic listening

    One kind of listening is where the listener's role is to be a

    sympathetic listener without much verbal response. In this kind of listening

    the listener allows somebody to talk through a problem. This kind of

    listening is very important in building good interpersonal relations.

    d. Critical listeningCritical listening is where listeners have to evaluate the message.

    Listeners have to critically respond to the message and give their opinion.

    e. Appreciative listening

    Appreciative listening is where the focus is on enjoying what

    someone listens. In the classroom students raised the point that when they

  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    28/145

    listen to English music, even if they do not understand, they still enjoy

    thereby challenging the notion of comprehensive listening as the basis for

    other three types of listening. Then when a teacher reflected on the practice

    of listening to songs in the language laboratory, the students generally listen

    to the songs once and try to make out the lyrics before listening a second

    time with the lyrics. Then they recalled that they appreciated the song better

    during the second time and were able to see the relation between how one

    would enjoy something that she or he is able to make sense of.

    3. Listening Comprehension

    a. Definition of Listening Comprehension

    Listening comprehension is based largely on the amount of

    information listeners can retrieve from what they hear and the inferences

    and connections that they can make (American Council on The Teaching of

    Foreign Languages/ACTFL, 2012:15).

    Listening comprehension is a mental process by which listeners take

    in the sounds uttered by a speaker and use them to construct an

    interpretation of what they think the speaker intended to convey (Fauziati,

    2005:117).

    Hence, listening comprehension is a process of interpreting andunderstanding what the speaker s intention. Listening is also compulsory

    ability that must be possessed by a student especially English learner. In

    listening comprehension learners need to consider some of the

    characteristics of spoken discourse and the special problems they speak for

    listeners. Spoken discourse has very different characteristics from written

  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    29/145

    discourse, and these differences can add many dimensions to our

    understanding of how we process speech. For example, spoken discourse is

    usually instantaneous. The listeners must process it directly and there is

    often no chance to listen to it again.In studying listening comprehension the

    learnerswill undergo many difficulties. That is very different with other

    skills in English such as reading, writing and speaking. In listening the

    learners are demanded to focus on the listening play and conclude what is

    posed and it happens once.

    4. The Process inListening Comprehension

    According to (Richards, 2008:4) there are two different kinds of

    processes are involved in understanding spoken discourse or listening

    comprehension. In this study the writer referred to use bottom-up and top-down

    processing as follows:

    a. Bottom-up processing

    Bottom-up processing refers to using the incoming input as the basis

    for understanding the message. Comprehension begins with the received

    data that is analyzed as successive levels of organization; sounds, words,

    clauses, sentences, texts until meaning is derived. Comprehension is viewed

    as a process of decoding. The listener s lexical and grammatical competencein a language provides the basis for bottom-up processing. The input is

    scanned for familiar words, and grammatical knowledge is used to work out

    the relationship between elements of sentences.

    30/145

  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    31/145

    listening in class as possible, and to encourage students to listen to as much

    English as they can (via the Internet,podcasts, CDs, tapes, etc).

    b) The second principle; Help students prepare to listen. Students need to be

    made ready to listen. This means that they willneed to look at pictures,

    discuss the topic, or read the questionsfirst, for example, in order to be in a

    position to predict what is coming. This is not just so that they are in the

    right frame of mind(and are thinking about the topic), but also so that they

    are engaged with the topic and the task and really want to listen.

    c) The third principle;Once may not be enough in playing.There are almost no

    occasions when the teacher will play an audio track only once. Students will

    want to hear it again to pick up the things they missed the first time - and we

    may well want them to have a chance to study some of the language features

    on the tape. In the case of live listening, students should be encouraged to

    ask for repetition and clarification when they need it. The first listening to a

    text is often used just to give students an idea of what the speakers sound

    like, and what the general topic is so that subsequent listening is easier for

    them. For subsequent listening, we may stop the audio track at various

    points, or only play extracts from it. However, we will have to ensure that

    we don t go on and on working with the same audio track (Harmer,2010:135).

    C. Student Team Achievement Division (STAD) Method

    1. Definition of STAD Method

    Method is derived from met and hodes that mean through.

    Method is an overall plan for the orderly presentation of language material, no

  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    32/145

    part of which contradicts, and all of which is based upon the selected approach

    Anthony (1963:95).

    According to Wang (2009) in his journal Applying Slavin s

    Cooperative Learning Techniques to a College EFL Conversation Class,

    STAD is a prevailing and simple technique in cooperative learning. It consists

    of five major components: class presentations, teams, quizzes, individual

    improvement scores, and team recognition.

    Rai (2007) in the journal Effect of Students Team Achievement

    Division (STAD) on Academic Achievement of Students, STAD is one of the

    many strategies in cooperative learning, which helps promote collaboration and

    self-regulating learning skills.

    STAD is an effective and efficient way to teach well-defined

    educational subjects. The teams are heterogeneous, made up of learners of

    diverse academic achievement, race, and nationality. The rewarding of the best

    teams motivates the better students in a team to encourage the other members

    to achieve their mutual goal (Kordaki, 2012:135).

    From the definition above it can be concluded that Student Teams-

    Achievement Division Method (STAD) is one of popular cooporativelearnings

    that combines students active -participation and collaboration team includingfive major components such as class presentations, teams, quizzes, individual

    improvement scores, and team recognition.

    2. The Components of STAD

  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    33/145

    STAD consists of five components; class presentation, team, quiz,

    scoring and team recognition (Slavin, 2005: 143). Here are the further

    descriptions of the components:

    a. Class presentation

    Teacher as a facilitator must state material, rule and teaching technique

    before explaining the aim of subject that is reached in the class. Teacher

    motivates students to be active and creative during teaching and learning

    process. In STAD, students must be concerned with the material that is

    presented. It can help them to do the quiz and individual quiz score can

    determine the team score.

    b. Team

    Teaming or grouping is a step to gather students in a team from different

    ethnic, achievement, and gender. Students work in a team that the teacher

    divides. Teacher prepares worksheet as a guide for the team, so that all

    members master and each member give contribution. When the team is

    working, teacher observes, give guidance, motivation and helps if the

    students need. The aim of team is to determine that all of members can

    study seriously and to prepare the members work the quiz well.

    c. Quiz

    Teacher evaluates the result of study with giving quiz about material that is

    learned and students evaluate other team presentations. In quiz, students are

    expected to work in a pair and they are allowed to help each other. So every

    student has to be responsible for understanding the material individually.

  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    34/145

    d. Score of Individual Development

    Every student is given first score that is acquired from average of score in

    doing the similar quiz. Then, the students can collect the point for their team

    based on the increasing of score quiz that is compared with their first score.

    e. Team recognition

    The teacher collects the individual score and inserts the team score then the

    team can get certificate or other appreciation if they can reach certain

    criteria (Slavin, 2009:146).

    D. Implementation of STAD (Student Teams-Achievement Divisions)

    inTeaching Listening Comprehension

    a.Implementation of STADin listening comprehension

    To implement STAD is not easy. A teacher is demanded to prepare the

    instrument and technique well to apply this method in learning. Here are some

    procedures to apply STAD in the class:

    1) Make a team summary that is given for students.

    2) Arr ange the students achievement

    3) Determine the members of the team

    4) Divide the students into a team.

    5) Suggest students to fill the paper of team summary(Slavin,2008: 143). b. Implementation Guide and STAD Steps in teaching listening comprehension

    Robert E. Slavin in his book Cooperative Learning: theory, research and

    practice 2005 stated Implementation Guide and STAD Steps as follows:

    1). Implementation Guide

    1. Make the students enthusiastic to do the question

  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    35/145

    2. Ask students randomly. It will make the students to prepare their answers

    every time.

    3. Do not give the question that needs long time to do. They will be bored

    andnot be interested in the learning.

    2). STAD (Student Teams-Achievement Divisions) Steps in listening

    comprehension.

    a) Teaching

    This step is material delivery step (teaching) to transfer lesson to

    the student before they learn in their team. A teacher must set the goal

    includes what aspect will be achieved and state the general concept of the

    ongoing teaching and learning in the meeting.

    b) Team study

    Students work with the project paper of their team to master the

    material.The obligation of the members of team is to master material that

    explained in the class and to help other team members to master the

    material. The students get activity sheet and answer sheet that is used to

    drill ability during teaching and to score their own selves and classmates.

    In the first teamwork in STAD, A teacher must explain to the students

    how important to do in a team and set the classroom rules:1. Students have responsibility to ensure that their team to learn their

    material.

    2. No one stops learning until their own entire team master the material.

    3. Ask a help to all team members to help other team members before

    asking to the teacher.

    36/145

  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    37/145

    development level of quiz score is compared with the first score. The

    students can give maximal point contribution to their team in this scoring

    system if they can progress their first score.

    e) Team recognition

    The teacher announces the best team in the meeting based on the

    level of development in the test and gives certificate to the best team.

    E. Advantage of using Student Teams-Achievement Divisions (STAD)

    There are lots of advantages of using Student Teams-Achievement

    Divisions (STAD) not only in language teaching but also in other subjects. There

    are five advantages of using STAD in English language teaching as follows:

    1) Positive Interdependence

    The success of team is decided by the members effort hence, every student in

    a team feel interdependence.

    2) Individual accountability

    The succes of team depends on each member of team, so that why the members

    have a task and responsibility that must be done.

    3) Face to face promotion interactionSTAD gives a chance to each members of the team to make interaction to

    transfer or receive information each other.

    4) Participation Communication

    It trains students to participate and communicate actively in teaching and

    learning activity.

  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    38/145

    5) Team Evaluation

    It educates students how to evaluate and coordinate the task each other in a

    team (Rusman,2011: 212).

    CHAPTER III

    RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

    A. The Method of Research

    1. Classroom Action Research

    According to SuharsimiArikunto (2007: 2), methodology of this research

    is derived from three words, classroom, action and research. So, there are three

    terms that can be explained:

    1. Research

    Research is activities to observe object of research that use a way and

    methodology together information or data to increase quality of thing which

    is very interesting and important for researcher.

    2. Action

    Action is point to an activity which is done to special purpose.

    3. A Classroom

    A classroom is not limited just one room of class, but in term that it would

    be more specific. A classroom is a group of students which already catches

    same materials from some teachers.

  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    39/145

    Kember (2000) stated that classroom action research is research

    method which emphasizes on social practice, has a goal toward

    improvement, a cycle process, followed systematic invention, a reflective

    process, participative and decided by a researcher (Rosman, 2010: 58).

    According to McNiff, in his book Action Research: Principles and

    Practices Classroom Action Research is reflective research that is used by

    a teacher whose the results can be utilized as a tool to curriculum

    development, school development, and others in (Basrowi, 2008: 27).

    A classroom action research is conducted cyclical approach. The

    cycles of an action research project will involve identification of problem

    (planning), collecting information or data (action), analyzing and

    interpreting data (observing), and monitoring the outcomes (reflection)

    (Graham and Hughes, 1989: 28).

    2. The Characteristics of Classroom Action Research

    Syamsuddin and Damaianti (2007:197) outline the following characteristics

    of classroom action research:

    a. It examines problem which are assumed problematic by researcher in

    teaching learning process.

    b. The researcher can give treatment to solve the problems and improve the

    quality, so the subject can get the implication.

    c. The steps of research are cyclic.

    d. Using reflective thinking from researcher both after and before doing the

    research.

    e. Contextual situational, which related to diagnosing and solving the problem.

  • 8/10/2019 the Use of Student Teams-Achievement Divisions - Stain Salatiga_3

    40/145

    f. Classroom action research used collaborative approach.

    g. Self-evaluative, which the researcher evaluated by himself continually to

    improve the performance.

    h. The procedure of research is on the spot which designed to handle the real

    problem in that area.

    3. The Objectives of Classroom Action Research

    There are many possible reasons for conducting a classroom action

    research as follow: we want to know more about our learners. We want to learn

    more about ourselves as teachers how effective we are, how we look to our

    students, how we would look to our selves if we ere observing our own

    teaching. We want to gauge the interest generated by certain topics, or judge

    the effectiveness of certain activity types. We want to see if an activity would

    work better done in groups rather than pairs(Harmer, 2001:345).

    According to Zuriyah (2006:70) the objective of classroom action

    research is to improve a learning process with the research, with the research

    teachers will know their weakness in teaching their students and they will

    know the effective methods in teaching.

    The aim of action research is to feed practical judgment in concrete

    situation, and the validity of the theories or hypothesis cannot be generated. In

    recent years, action research has been applied to problem involving curriculum

    development, and in service education, particularly within the field of self-

    evaluation (Arikunto, 2006: 57).

    B. Setting and time of the research

    The research was conducted at SMAN 2 Salatiga onTegalrejostreet No. 79.

    SMAN 2 Salatiga is one of outstanding state schools in Salatiga because it has lots

    of achievements. The students who want to study in SMAN 2 should have good

    achievement in their junior high school.

    This research was carried out during 1 month from April,23 rd, 2013 to May

    E. Procedure of Research

    This research used a classroom action research. Actually there are varieties

    of procedures of research, but the researcher selects Kemmis and Mc Taggart

    Model in Hamzah (2012), MenjadiPeneliti PTK yang Profesional as the

    measurement in this study.

    The researcher did the research in two cycles in every cycle include two

    meetings; those were cycle I, and cycle II. The steps in every cycle were same.

    There were four steps in one cycle for doing classroom action research. They were

    planning, action and observation, and reflection. The steps of action research

    could be presented as follows:

    a. Planning

    In this stage the researcher conducted some activities to make the

    teaching and learning process interesting. The researcher arranges the lesson

    plan based on the teaching material, improves the teaching strategy, prepare

    the teaching aid and also prepares the sheet of the observation to observe

    teaching and learning process in this cycle.

    b. Action

    Doing the activity based lesson plan which is made. In teaching and

    learning activity, the students are guided to study listening comprehension

    through Student Teams-Achievement Divisions (STAD) and here are some

    steps:

    1) Giving a brief explanation of the material of listening

    comprehension.

    2) Applying Student Teams-Achievement Divisions.3) Providing worksheet

    4) Stimulate the students to do the task.

    5) Closure activity

    In the end of teaching and learning activity in every cycle, the teacher

    gives a test to evaluate the students result for teaching and learning process.

    c. Observation

    Observation is madeduring thelearning processshould beongoing

    andobserverdoes a collaborationin implementation with the English teacher of

    the class. The observer of the research was the researcher. Here were the

    instruments used:

    1) Field note

    2) Collecting data (students score)

    d. Reflection

    A reflection was an effect to inspect what has been done. The result of

    reflection was used to establish the next steps of the research. This research

    was designed in classroom action research. It was purposed to improve student

    listening comprehension. Before doing the cycle, the researcher used

    preliminary research to identify the problems in teaching and learning process.

    There were two cycles in this classroom action research. They were first cycle,

    and second cycle. Each cycle had several steps such as identifying area focus

    (planning), collecting data (action), analyzing and interpreting data

    (observation), develop an action planning (reflection).

    The researcher s reflection was done by discussing with hi s

    collaborator. Note of lack, incompatibility between action and scenario ordifferent response of students that expected. They were analysis of the

    observation, identification of the problem and find out the alternative decision

    of the problem.

    3. Interview

    Interview meant dialogue that was done by an interviewer to acquire data

    from an interviewee (the English teacher as the collaborator). The researcher

    gave the questions and digged for the deeper information about using Student

    Teams Achievement Division (STAD) in teaching listening comprehension in

    the classroom. The interview as conducted on May 29 th, 2013 at 1 A.M in the

    teacher office.

    4. Test

    Test is a method of measuring a person s ability, knowledge, or

    performance in a given domain (Brown, 2004: 3). In this classroom action

    research, the researcher provided preliminary assessment and final assessment

    to evaluate how far the students understand listening comprehension.The

    assessment was done to know students achievement so that the researcher

    knows the students improvement can be reached by the students.

    There are many types of test in listening and the researcher selects

    objective test as the measurement of the test. The objective test is a test that

    asked the students to fill in the blank space with the correct answer times to

    five (http://penelitiantindakankelas.blogspot.cc/2013/04/jenis-jenis-tes.com)

    and the researcher combines the scoring system from Slavin (Rusman,2011:216), STAD (Student Teams Achievement Divisions)here are the description

    of the scoring system:

    understand in the text, or if you have question just

    ask because after doing this text in team I will play the listening test and you must focus the

    listening by using this technique. Do you

    technique in your team and now I will set the time

    for about 7 minutes then I will ask the team

    randomly for the team that is not finished the task

    must sing the song on the screen. Do you

    understand?

    Students : Yes, We do

    (Students discuss the topic in the team)

    whose team do not finish yet. They must stand up

    and sing a song like the lyric on the screen.
