USING THE VARIOUS COMMUNICATIVE ACTIVITIES TO REDUCING ANXIETY THE STUDENTS IN SPEAKING (AN ANALYSIS AT SMP )
B. BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
In
this globalization era, English plays a prominent role in the world, where most
people use English as a means of communication. Meanwhile, in Indonesia,
English is considered as a foreign language (EFL). It has been introduced to
educational institutions which is learnt from Junior High School up to
university level as a compulsory subject to learn. As a developing country,
Indonesia has been preoccupied with national development and survivals in a strongly
competitive world of science and technology. Therefore, Indonesian government
admits the important role of English to accelerate the process of state and
nation development. English serves as an international language, consequently many communities in many countries
in this
world use it in every
aspect of human
life, such as
communication, economics, education, science and technology.
As
a point out from Alonso (2014: 146) the practice of speaking in the classroom is
a key element in the development of the second language, oral skills have not
always been central in second language teaching methodologies. The objective of
teaching speaking skill is to develop learners‟ oral proficiency so that
they effectively use
their background knowledge
to respond coherently
in a given communicative situation
Based
on Tuan & Mai (2015: 9) in order
to help students
overcome problems in
learning speaking, it is necessary
for the teachers to figure out
factors that affect their speaking performance. Students’ speaking performance can
be affected by
the factors that
come from performance
conditions (time pressure, planning,
standard of performance
and amount of
support), affective factors
(such as motivation, confidence
and anxiety), listening
ability and feedback
during speaking activities.
anxiety is a subjective, consciously perceived feelings of apprehension and
tension, accompanied by or associated with activation or arousal of the
autonomic nervous system
Lejla
B (2011: 6) To make students
communicate and to
become aware of
their language use
can not only
be achieved by input from the teacher. Teachers need to create
situations where students get the chance to speak and communicate with each
other. Speaking in the target language seems to be the most threatening aspect
of foreign language learning, the current emphasis on the development of
communicative competence poses particularly great difficulties for the anxious
student. To ensure the success of English education in primary schools, foreign
language anxiety is a significant issue which cannot be ignored.
