%T THE IMPLEMENTATION OF SCIENTIFIC APPROACH
ON SPEAKING SKILL AT THE SECOND GRADE STUDENTS
BASED ON LEARNING STYLES IN SMAN 1 PRINGSEWU
%X The objectives of this study were to find out i) how the implementation of scientific
approach could affect students? speaking achievement, ii) what aspect(s) of speaking
which will improve better in learning speaking through scientific approach, iii) in
what stage of scientific approach the students learn speaking optimally and iv)
whether students? learning style preferences affect the students? speaking capability.
The research used pre-experimental design. The subjects were 28 second year
science class students of SMAN 1 Pringsewu. Questionnaires were employed to
collect the data of the students? learning style preferences and speaking tests were
conducted to identify students? speaking achievement. The implementation of
scientific approach could improve the students? speaking skill since the students
actively participated in the learning process by speaking through drills and
repetitions in meaningful context. This is confirmed by a significant improvement of
the students? speaking achievement with significant level 0.05. Students? learning
style preferences also affected their speaking ability. The results suggest that
scientific approach facilitates the students to improve their English proficiency. In
addition, learning style preferences also contributed to the students? success in
acquiring language.
