Introduction
As stated in School Based Curriculum, one of teaching speaking
goals to Senior High school students is to express meaning in formal text
both
transactional
and
interpersonal
conversation
and
continue
that
students
learn
about
the
functions
of
language
for
which
consists
of
seven
components
constructivism,
inquiry,
others
factors
which
is
not
mentioned
above
such
as
the
supportive
class
atmosphere
(Mathew,
1994).
As
Harmer
As stated by
Andre Wright (1981,p.177) that if the students must have the maximum
oppurtunities to speak. John De Boer (1973, p.156) stated that discussion
is that form of speaking in which the speakers attempt through
co-
sophomore level modern physics course. Ming (2000) tried to seek the
Group Problem Solving process in term of social interactions and Individual
Actions. He found that group work can induce many beneficial outcomes
such as increased learning, decreased racial tension, more positive
students attitudes toward school, etc.
the

used in both types were related to trigger students sharing his ideas about
what would they say, what would they do, or why they said or did.
Data collection and analysis
Two interviews conducted before (pre-test) and after (post-test) the
treatment to the experimental group and controlled group. The interviews
were recorded and transcripted. In scoring the students speaking ability,
FSI checlist of performance factors and description was used. Three raters
were assigned to score students speaking ability to avoid the subjectivity
in scoring process. The data then tabulated into table and analyzed
statistically.
Procedure
The following procedures were carried out to conduct the reseearch:
First, pre-test in form of interview was conducted on all population of 42
students to the target group of the study (experimental and control group)
. The interview was recorded. Then, the recording was transcripted and
given to three raters to process the scoring. The writer, then, tabulated
them into FSI conversion table and started calculating it to get the Mean
score and Standard Deviation.
Second, experimental group was treated using problem solving group
discussion for 8 meetings while control group is taught by group
discussion only, During the meetings, the writer proceed some steps:
-
The class procedure were conduct for eight meetings with different
topics.
After applying treatment for eight meetings, the post-test in form of oral
interview was administered to both groups. The items of the interviews
had similar characteristics with the pre-test. It recorded and transcripted
then, scoring process would proceed by three raters. The post-test and
pre-test were analyzed statistically. The mean score, standard deviation
and variance was analyzed to find the different score before and after
taught by problem solving group discussion
Findings and discussion
The pre-test score of experimental group showed that 47.7% of
students were not able to understand or speak English similar with control
group pre-test. While in post-test score of experimental group showed that
31.8% of students were able to catches parts of normal speech without
making major conribution. The average score of pre- test was 30.11 and
46.13 in post test. The different between mean score in pre-test and
post-test was 16.02 or 36.4 % (16.02/44 x 100) . The standard deviation
of pre-test was 202.06 while post-test was 309.5 and the variance of pretest was 30.81 and 47.2 for post-test. the result of calculating the
standard error of mean was 4.02. after knowing mean, the value was
transfromed into t-test. By using 0.05 level of significance, for two tailed
test and 86 degree of freedom (df), t-obtained was 3.98. since t-obtained
was bigger than t-critical, the null hypothesis was rejected and alternative
hypothesis was accepted.

would be perfect meeting when it comes to the greatest willingness to
express or share or train or practice them with others in form of group
discussion or other likes.

1. Vocabulary inadequate in even simplest conversation
2. Vocabulary limited to basic pesonal and survival areas (time,
food, transportation, family, etc)
3. Choice of words sometime inaccurate, limitation of vocabulary
prevent discussion of some professional and social topics
4. Professional vocabulary adequate to discuss special interest,
general vocabulary permit discussion of any non technical
subject with some circumlocutions

adequate to cope with complex practical problems and varied
social situation
6. Vocabulary apparently as accurate and extensive as that of an
educated native speaker
d. Fluency
1. Speech in halting and fragmentary that conversation is virtually
impossible
2. Speech is very slow uneven except for short or routines
sentences
3. Speech is frequntly hesitant and jerky, sentences may be left
uncompleted
4. Speech is occasionally hesitant, with some unevenness caused
by rephrasing and grouping for words
5. Speech is effortless and smooth, but perceptibly non-native in
speed and evenness
6. Speech on all provisional and general topic is effortless and
smooth as a native speakers

The table was used to know and to show the proficiency or ability of the
students, whether they are in the proficiency description of 1,2,3,4,5,or 6.
then, the proficiency description is converted into score based on the
aspects of speaking.
After getting scores, they were categorized into 9 bands or level based on
FSI conversion table.
