USING THE VARIOUS COMMUNICATIVE ACTIVITIES TO REDUCING ANXIETY THE STUDENTS IN SPEAKING (AN ANALYSIS)
CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
A.
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.
According
to the explanation above the researcher will conduct the study under the title
“The Using of Various Communicative Activities to Reducing Anxiety the Students
in Speaking at SMP Negeri”
