Research Proposal

A.    Introduction

      One of way to improve speaking skill is memorizing vocabulary, without vocabulary we will not know what will we say or speak.

      I’m here as researcher, will try research about “ The influence memorizing vocabulary to improve speaking skill”.

a.      The time and place

             Here I will research the students for two weeks, to research the students, and I’m sure during 2 week, during 2 week, I will be success on what I research. I will research at SDN III Sedonglor, why? Because, at SDN III Sedonglor there are many the good teacher, and besides that, the students here, has many skill, exactly in English, Matematic, IPA, IPS always be excellent, and always be the champion every is there compitition. I interested to research this school, because, I felt in this school is the excellent school from others school.

b.      Population

             The next, in three of class 5A, 5B, and 5C, There are many student, are :

5A : 25

5B : 30

5C : 35

            All of student, from 5A until 5C are 90 students

c.       Sample

            And after that, here, I will take of class from all of class, from 5A 10 students, 5B 10 student, 5C 10 students, and all of students are 30 students. Well, From 30 students here, I will do research.

B.     Research Design

Before we will explain something, we must know what is the meaning what from will we explain.

            Quantitative is the research that focus on objective phenomena to explained quantitative. H.M. Muspiqon, ( 2012 : 59 ).

a.      Correlation Between Vocabulary and Speaking

      This section reviews studies that dealt with relationships between vocabulary and speaking. Four points need to be made explicit before the review of previous studies.

First, the studies reviewed were the ones that analyzed language that was produced orally first. Thus, the following studies were not included: studies that analyzed language that was produced first in a written text, which was then used as a spoken script (e.g., Hidai, 1999; Nomura, 2005).

Second, despite the fact that each study interpreted speaking performance in its own way (e.g., speaking ability or BICS Basic interpersonal communication skills] type speaking ability), all are reviewed as “speaking performance” because this interpretation had the fewest assumptions.

      Third, as for types of vocabulary, the term “productive” was only used when test takers were required to produce a form. Otherwise, vocabulary targeted was considered to be receptive.

Fourth, although vocabulary can be seen from a multi-word level (e.g., Ota, Kanatani, Kosuge, & Hidai, 2003, ; Schmitt, 2004; Wray, 2002) as well as an individual level, only relationships between vocabulary at the latter level  and speaking are reviewed.

According to me,

C.    Variable in the research

Variable X : Memorizing Vocabulary

Variable Y : Improving Speaking skill

 As we know speaking is action of tell information or express feel, think and idea. According to Chambers dictionary ( 1973 : 106 ), speaking is to say words, to talk, to be able to talk a particular language. Hornby ( 1929 : 827 ) states that, speaking is make use of language in an ordinary.

 In speaking skill, we are very need the vocabulary to speak or say something. So, here I wanna explain what is the meaning of vocabulary. Krashen (1989) pointed out that “a large vocabulary is, of course, essential for mastery of a language” as “without vocabulary, nothing can be conveyed” (Wilkins, 1972). The vocabulary is all the words that a person knows or uses, or all the words in a particular language. The words that people use when they are talking about a particular subject.

Khuat (2003) also accepted that vocabulary knowledge plays an important role in learning a foreign language. Vocabulary is one element that links the four skills of speaking, listening, reading and writing all together. Vocabulary is a core component of language proficiency and provides much of the basis for how well learners listen, speak, read, and write (Richards and Renandya, 2002).

D.    Steps in conducting the research

The step that I will use are :

I will give five words everyday to the students, besides that I will give the task to the students to make sentences what from I give to them. After that I will do test to the students every one week one time, the benefit I did test every one week one time is to know students’s development.

E.     Technique and instrument of collecting data

Here I will use technique in this research, that are :

a.      Interview

Interview here is to know the students’s development, and the way to students’s development is the researcher ask to the students about vocabulary that have been memoriezed during two weeks with the way face to face. And the students can answer my question about vocabulary that I given. But I’m not felt satisfied yet with my research, so I continued my research with use method test, that is oral test

b.      Test

            Test here, I will use method oral test which I will give the task to the students to make sentence what the vocabulary I give to them, with the way face to face also. But the student can answer and can make sentence what the vocabulary I give to them. My research is not satisfied yet only until here. So, I will do test again with use method like is RANKING 1 that is there in TRANS TV every morning at 07 30 WIB.

c.       Observation

             In observation here, what I do? Here, I just do give sentence in Indonesian language and the students just translate to English, and method here is “who fast he can”. From here, we can know the skills of the students and this method is very good, because respond the student is very spirit to answer my question.

F.     Data Analysis

 After I did test, that are interview, test, and observation. I felt satisfied. And the result is also be success, the students can answer the questions that I give to them. So it’s has been cleared, that, memorizing vocabulary can make the students to improve in speaking skill. I’m here as research is very, very satisfied, because my research can be success and walk with nothing problems. And I will give the information to the teachers in this world, that memorizing vocabulary can make improve speaking skill, without vocabulary, we can’t say whatever, what will we say, what will we speak. And I will compare with the others students, why? Because all of them has the skill their self, so I will compare one student with the others students.
