RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

The methodology of this study include several aspects of the research,

such as the location and time of the research, the population and sample of the

research, the method and design of the research, the objective of the research, , the

variable of the research, the data, the technique and instrument for collecting data,

the technique of data analysis, statistical hyphotesis, the procedure of the research.

A. The Location and Time of the Research

The location of the research was at Nahjul Huda at Jl. HH No. 63 Rt

008/001 Kebon Jeruk, west Jakarta. The research had been conducted for

C. The Method and Design of the Research

The writer has implemented an experiment research with a pre

experiment design. It had been done in eight meetings that consist of one

meeting for giving pre test, six meetings for giving treatment and one meeting

for giving post test. Each meeting was done in one hundred minutes. Each

treatment (learning speaking through role play) was conducted based on

prepared lesson plans.

The design of this research is pre-experiment. The design is as

follows:

R O T O

Explanation :

R : Randomized research subject

O : First Observation

T : Treatment of the research

O : Final observation

D. The Objective of the Research

The objective of the research is to get empirical evidence about Is role

play technique be an effective or not to improve speaking skill, of the second

semester students of the English Department of the University of

Muhammadiyah Prof. Dr. HAMKA Jakarta in 2014/2015 Academic Year.

2. Dependent variable (Y)

Variable Y : Speaking skill of the second semester students of English

H. The Technique of Data Analysis

In analyzing the data especially for the pre-test and the post-test score,

the writer used an inferential statistics to analyze it. Therefore, the method in

the inferential statistics as follows:

1. The Hypotheses test

The speaking skill is the effect of performing being tour guide

role play as the treatment. To measure if there has been significant

increase, as the proof that performing being tour guide role play

effective, the difference scores of pre test and the post test have been

analyzed through t-test. The formula is :

Xi - µ o
t=
s/√n

The explanation :

Xi: The average score of the experiment class (before treatment)

µo: The average score of the experiment data

n: Total of sample student of experiment class

s: Variant of experiment class1

I. Statistical Hyphotesis

The statistical hypotheses proposed in this study are as follows:

Ho : µ1 = µo

Hi : µo> µ1
