Abstract
The aim of this research was to improve the speaking skills of grade VII D students at SMP N 1 Mlati, Sleman, in the academic year of 2013/2014 through video clips. This research was classified into action research which was conducted in two cycles with three meetings in the first cycle and three meetings in the second. The main subjects of this research were 32 students of class VII at SMP N 1 Mlati, Sleman. The research procedure was reconnaissance, planning, action, and reflection. The data obtained were qualitative and quantitative. The qualitative data were gained from the observations and the interviews with both the English teacher and the students. The data were transformed into field notes and interview transcripts. Meanwhile, the quantitative data were gained from the speaking tests that were conducted before the action implementation and at the end of every cycle. There were several validity principles applied in this research; they were democratic validity, outcome validity, process validity, catalytic validity, and dialogic validity. Furthermore, to test the trustworthiness these three triangulation principles were implemented: time triangulation, investigator triangulation, and theoretical triangulation. The actions implemented in this research were implementing the use of video clips, giving more explanation related to grammatical rules, pronouncing word correctly, and providing activities that enabled the students to enrich their vocabulary, preparing worksheets for the students, and making use of the LCD projector optimally. The results of the research show that the implementation of the video clips in the English teaching and learning process improved the students‟ speaking skills. They could perform more confidently, more bravely, and less hesitantly during the speaking process. Moreover, their motivation and enthusiasm in English learning also improved. Furthermore, after comparing the scores of post-test 1 and post-test 2, there was an increase from 72.03 to 86.87. The research findings were also supported by the means of the students‟ speaking scores that improved from 83.28 in the pre-test to 86.87 in Cycle 2 test.
