"IMPROVING STUDENTS’ PRONUNCIATION THROUGH SONGS IN\r\nTHE SECOND GRADE OF SMPN 1 TASIKMADU KARANGANYAR\r\nKartika Indah P.\r\n05202244018\r\nABSTRACT\r\nThe objective of the research is to improve both teachers’ and\r\nstudents’ performance in pronunciation by implementing songs in SMPN 1\r\nTasikmadu Karanganyar in the academic year of 2009/2010.\r\nThis study is action research. The data collected were qualitative in\r\nnature. They were obtained by observing the English teaching and learning\r\nprocess during the implementation of the actions, interviewing the students of\r\nsecond grade of SMPN 1 Tasikmadu, and holding discussions with the English\r\nteacher. The data were in the form of field notes, interview transcripts, and\r\nphotographs. The data were taken from the field notes and interview transcripts.\r\nSteps of research are reconnaissance, planning, action and observation, and\r\nreflection. The instruments for collecting the data were researcher herself\r\naccompanied with a handy camera, observation guides, and in-depth interview\r\nguides.\r\nThe problems found in the reconnaissance were; the teacher never used\r\ninteresting materials, media and techniques; the students’ pronunciation was low;\r\nand the students did not have self-confidence to speak English. These problems\r\nwere solved by using songs that included three actions implemented in the\r\nresearch. They were done in two cycles. They are; giving more pronunciation\r\npractices to the students; implementing songs in the class; and encouraging the\r\nstudents by competition. The findings show that giving pronunciation practices to\r\nthe students was successful to make students familiar with English pronunciation.\r\nHowever, the use of competition to improve students’ confidence was not really\r\nsuccessful. The implementation of songs in the teaching of pronunciation was\r\nsuccessful to improve teachers’ and students’ performance in pronunciation."^^ . "2013-07-20" . . . "FBS UNY"^^ . . .
