Abstract
The purpose of this action research was to improve the students’ listening skills of 8th grade students at SMPN 1 Ngemplak in the academic year of 2013/2014. This research implemented some scaffolding principles. The participants of the research were the students of class VIII B. The data collected were qualitative in nature and quantitative as the supporting data. The steps of the research consist of reconnaissance, planning, action and observation, and reflection. Some of the scaffolding principles were implemented in this research. The principles were offering explanations, inviting students’ participation, giving verification and clarification of students’ understanding, modelling the desired behaviors, and inviting students to contribute clues. The data were in the forms of field notes, interview transcripts, photographs, and the score of listening tests. The data were gained from the observations of the teaching and learning process and the interview with the research members. The data of field notes and interview trancripts were analyzed qualitatively, while the test was analyzed quantitatively. The validity was obtained by applying process, catalytic, democratic, and dialogic validity. The results of the research revealed that the use of scaffolding principles gradually could improve the students’ listening skills. Based on the students’ posttest result, quantitatively, the scores showed that there are improvements on the students’ listening skills. Qualitatively, the students gained the experience and input related to the listening process. Beside that, the use of the song was effective to attract students’ attention and made them interested in joining the listening activity. The implementation of scaffolding principles could help and support the students in the learning process.
