Abstract

This research aims to investigate the effectiveness of Project Based Learning method (PJBL) on students’ speaking skill at Eighth grade of SMP N 2 Bojong Tegal. This research used a quasi-experimental design, and involved two sample class groups of students. Since this research applied a quasi-experimental design, the purposive sampling technique was used based on the teacher’s English suggestions, those classes are: the experimental class who received teaching through PJBL and the control class who participated in conventional learning. Pre-test and post-test were given to measure students' speaking abilities before and after the intervention. Meanwhile, to measure the effectiveness of the PJBL method, gain data analysis or the difference between post-test and pre-test scores is used. The research results showed that Project-based learning is effective on students’ speaking skill. Furthermore, in analysis data of hypothesis test was calculated with the formula of Mann Whitney U Test since the data was not normally distributed. The result of Mann Whitney test on the n gain data for the two research samples stated that sig. (2-tailed) n gain data was 0.000 < 0.05. This indicated that the hypothesis was accepted based on Mann Whitney criteria. Therefore, it can be decided that Project-Based Learning is effective towards students’ speaking skill at eighth grade of SMP N 2 Bojong Tegal. Meanwhile, based on a series of statistical analyse of gain values, it showed that project-based learning is quite effective based on the criteria scale with an effectiveness value obtained of 56.16%.
