CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
A. The background of the study
Speaking is widely known as an ability to share thoughts, ideas, and
intentions to the other people by using a language in oral form. According to
Shiamaa (2006, p. 30), speaking represents an interactive process which involves
of producing and processing or receiving information to serve both interactional
and transactional. In addition, Nunan (2003, p. 48) mentions that speaking is a
productive skill which consists of systematic verbal utterances that carry out a
meaning. This means that speaking plays an important role in communication.
In most of non-native countries, for example China, Vietnam, and
Indonesia, most students may find speaking English in a good level of functional
is difficult. This is an evidence when the writer observed and interviewed teachers
at the Junior High School 30 MuaroJambi . Teachers at this school argue that the
students face some difficulties in expressing ideas, choosing correct structures,
lack of producing appropriate vocabulary and producing correct pronunciation.
These problems occured because the students have less exposure to speaking
activity.
What possibly could help students to perform appropriately in speaking is
by introducing an alternative media, the podcast. According to Jordan (2007), the
term podcast is a combination between the words pod (i.e., from the brand name
iPod) and broadcast. The podcast is an audio/video file that is uploaded to the
website where the website users can download it through the internet freely. This
can be listened on any devices that support MP3/MP4 files such as on a computer,
smartphone, and MP3 Player. The podcast gives chances for teachers to support
studentsin developing speaking skill. The idea of using podcast media is based on
some following statements from many experts in literature. Podcast is believed
not just accelerating listening skill but also it stimulates the other language area
for instances pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, and learning activities.
21
Other researchers, Samad, Bustari, and Ahmad (2017) explain that
podcast gives good contribution in case of improving students’ speaking
achievement. This research article aims at finding out if there is a significant
improvement on students’ speaking skills by using this Podcast. The data from
these tests were then calculated by using statistical formulas. The result showed
that the post-test score was higher than the pre-test. The finding showed that there
was a significant improvement of the students’ speaking skills performance after
undertaking treatments. Thus, podcast media can be used as one of the alternative
media in teaching English especially speaking skill in EFL classes.
The podcast can be one of the alternatives and innovative tools that may
improve the students’ understanding and their accomplishment in speaking.
Moreover, this idea has been discussed by Dan Schmit, an instructional
technology expert in the College of Education at the University of Nebraska,
which is reflected in his statement as follows:“Educators are as starting points to
see how podcasting can help students’ vocabulary, writing, editing, public
speaking, and presentation skills. Students can also learn skills that will be
valuable in the working world, such as communication, time management and
problem-solving. In addition, by using the podcast, teachers have a new method of
teaching to stay connect with their students outside of the classroom and to
enhance learning beyond of the school schedule . These researchers believe that
Podcast supports studentsindeveloping speaking skill. Students can also play it on
their devices anywhere and at anytime as they pleased.
As described above, for the sake of making effective speaking skills, the
students are required to produce good fluency and appropriate pronunciation in
speaking. It would be the bases of using podcast media. The researchers expect
this study would contribute to filling the gap in the body of literature and also
teachers especially for those who teach English at junior high school. It also could
contribute to all students to improve their speaking ability, particularly
influencyand pronunciation.
22
The writer choose Junior High School 30 Muaro Jambi because the writer
saw that so many students use the smartphone just for play the game, use the
social media such us facebook, instagram, twitter and many more. They don’t
understand that smartphone has a big advantage for study. In this research, the
writer will use the smarphone (Podcast) to teach the students to improve their
speaking skill.
The writer does this research at the Junior High School 30 Muaro Jambi.
Based on the condition, the writer would carry out a research entitle “The Effect
of Using Podcast on Students’ Speaking Skill at the Second Grade of Junior High
School 30 Muaro Jambi”.
B. The Identification of the Study
Based on the background of the study above, there are many problems that
can be identified in this research such as:
1. Students’difficulties in expressing ideas, and choosing correct structures
2. Lack of producing appropriate vocabulary.
3. Lack producing correct pronunciation.
4. Less exposure to speaking activity.
C. The Limitation of the Study
The limitation of the problem in this research are Podcast and Students of
Speaking skill.
D. The Formulation of the Study
The limitation of the problem, the writer formulated into the following
question :
1. Is there any significant effect on students’ speaking skill by using podcast
media?
2. Is there any significant difference on those who are taught by using podcast
media?
23
E. The Objectives of The Study
According to the research questions above, the objectives of this study are:
1. To find out the significant effect on students’ speaking skill by using podcast
media?
2. To find out the significant difference on students’ speaking skill before and
after using podcast media?
F. The Significance of the study
The result of this research are expected to provide useful information and
suggestion for three people, they are :
1. For the Students
The result of this study will help and givean opportunity for students to get
motivation after get the result of this research and can improve their speaking
skill.

CHAPTER II
LITERATURE REVIEW
A. Podcast
Podcast is an episodic series of digital audio or video files that a user can
download in order to listen. Alternatively, the word podcast may refer to the
individual media file. Rashtchi (2001, as cited in Sze) mentions that podcast is the
innovative media which can meet the students’ and classroom needs. Edisitingha
(2007) found that by using podcast the students found it easier to access speaking
practice, and podcasts helped them to improve their oral presentation skill.In this
global era, being able to speakEnglish is essential for people to communicatewith
global community (Samad and Fitriani, 2016). To help non native speakers to
learn tospeak this language, there are many kinds oftechnologies
invented.According to Marshall(2002, p. 18), new opportunities can be gainedby
using technology. It offers users to connectwith people around the world and
gives a lot ofunique perspectives and experiences.
25
There are a technologies invented,and one of those which provides
material forlanguage learning is called the podcast. Thepodcast, an uploading
audio or video file to theinternet, has emerged as sources in theacademic field, and
it provides many kinds of material in learning. The podcast is a
recordedaudio/video file uploaded to a website, so thewebsite users can download
freely and listen toit later time. Kavaliauskiene (2008) states thatpodcasts have
given the language teachernumerous materials for teaching. Podcast is similar to a
public librarythat delivers any materials or resources neededstraight to users
devices. Users can download itfreely without any registration and no feesrequired.
They can choose a kind of discussiontopics that was provided when they want
toknow something.
In supporting this research, the idea ofusing podcast media is based on
some following statements from the experts, in orderto see the improvement of
students’ speaking skill. According to SZE (2006, p. 115), anumber researchers
have revealed the positivefruitions that podcasting can assist languageeducation.
Since the podcast isas one of the alternatives, the teacher can fairly easy to
provide an authentic material inteaching.
Podcast media affirmatively shows goodpoint for students in case of it
would bring the students closer to the target language, and it effects students’
attitude and motivation. By using podcastmedia, the teacher can support the
students inbuilding self-confidence and the learningsituation enjoyable. This self-
confidence maybe raising due to their ability to understand thehetoric of a
particular topic as a result oflistening repetion dan oral performance(Samad,
2016). This understanding makes themfind the learning process is enjoyable.
Thisstudy assumes that the podcast media givescontribution for the students in
improving their speaking performance.
B. Speaking skill
Speaking is a productive skill that issimilar to writing. It has its own genre
as it hasseveral stages to reach the goal using alanguage in an interactive way
(Martin & Rose : 2012). Speaking involvessound to express meanings to make
26
interactionoccur. This means that speaking is aninteractive process of
communication thatconnects ideas between speaker andinterlocutor with a certain
purpose. Speaking is theprocess of sharing and constructing the sense ofusing
oral/verbal in variety contexts. Speaking an act of making vocal sounds, helps to
assurethe listener in following messages, convincingmanner and
thoughtful.Harmer (2002, p. 78) mentions speakingis about generating words in
the correctsequence. Speaking needs not only vocal soundinvolved but also needs
to be aware of theaspects of speaking within which includes thegeneric structure
of the speaking event thatneed to be followed sequentially or it is calledgenre
(Samad and Adnan, 2017).
C. Aspects of Speaking
During speaking process occurred ininteraction, there are several features
ofspeaking involved. According to Duong (2014:86), commonly thought of the
mostimportant aspects of speaking is grammar,fluency, accuracy, vocabulary
andpronunciation.Firstly is vocabulary. Vocabulary is aword which has its
meaning in every function.A word expresses the content of ideas to
avoidconfusion in communication. It plays a usefulrole to define any objects,
actions, ideas aswell. According to Horby (1989:289), anacceptable language is
made up of the numberof vocabularies. Mastering vocabulary woulddefine
someone’s capability in understandinglanguage.
Secondly is Grammar. This is similar torigid rules in oral and written
form. Brown(2000, p. 36) mentions that, Grammar is asystem of rules governing
the conventionalarrangement and relationship of words in the sentence.
Moreover, Al-Mekhlafi andNagaratnam (2011, p. 71) write that grammar isa set
of rules that determines the structure of alanguage, and it could be the way to
combineunits of a language. Combining necessary unitsof language help a speaker
or a writer inexpanding any ideas in their mind, and it makesa person a lot easier
to build communication inexpressing messages in spoken or written.
Thirdly is Pronunciation. This is the process of pronouncing a particular
word in aproper manner. Where pronunciation should beacceptable is a necessary
aspect in speaking aswell. Referring to Nation and Newton (2009, p.76),
27
pronunciation is an individual sound whichinvolves good articulation, and it has
featuresof sound such as aspiration, voicing, voicesetting,intonation, and stress.
Pronunciationplays a great role in speaking, and it gives ahint toward what is
being said. The interlocutorwill misunderstand on catching the meaningwhether
the speaker pronounces wrongpronunciation. Therefore, pronunciation is howto
generate an acceptable and an unambiguouslexical word in language.
Fourthly is fluency. It means knowingabout how he/she expresses ideas
without usingfilling word (“um” and “ah”) while talking tothe other occurs.
Yingjie (2014, p. 58) mentions that fluency is the capability to speak ineffective
speed and to speak smoothly and toproduce the right word without thinking
toomuch. In this case, excellent fluency will createbetter confidence in expressing
ideas and itimproves communication skill as well. To beclassified as a fluent
speaker, we might wellfulfill this features as presented by Thornbury(2005, p. 8)
as follows, pauses may be long butnot often, and pauses allow at the
meaningfultransition point.
Fifth is accuracy. According to Kusnierek(2015, p. 78), accuracy refers to
anunderstanding word, right in structures, syntax,and better in catching the
meaning of messagesof language without part of mistakes, and itdoes not cause
hesitation in interaction.
Obviously, good accuracy creates impressiontoward how he/she delivers
the message to theother.In addition, Nunan (1989, p. 32) suggestthat to be
successful in speaking, theinvolvement of appropriate conversationalformula,
good ability to express phonologicalfeatures of a language, excellent of
masterystress and an acceptable degree of fluency arerequired. All of those
aspects should haveemerged for the duration of speaking, andfeatures of speaking
need to be constructedwell to avoid misunderstanding in speaking.
Brown (2004, p. 142-143) adds thatstudents also need to understand the
micro andmacro skills in speaking. The micro skill isproducing small chunks of
language forinstances, morphemes, phonemes, words,collections, and phrasal
units. This skill playsat sentence level which focuses on the form ofthe ability in
producing sentences. Meanwhile,macro skill refers to the person who speaks
28
thelanguage and it focuses on larger elements suchas function, fluency, style,
cohesion, discourse,non-verbal communication, and strategicoptions. Indeed, this
macro skill emphasizes thespeaker’s communicative functions during
thecommunication.
D. Research Hypothesis
The following hypothesis related to above formulation of the problem of
the study were :
Alternative Hypothesis (Ha.1) :There is significant effect on students’
speaking skill by using podcast media.
Null Hypothesis (Ho.1) : There is no significant effect on students’
speaking skill by using podcast media.
Alternative Hypothesis (Ha.2): There is significant difference on those who
are taught by using podcast media.
Null Hypothesis (Ho.2) : There is no significant difference on those
who are taught by using podcast media.
E. Previous Related Study
Previous study is very important to the researcher as guide in conducting
this study. There are three previous that related to the present study. The first
study conduct by Samad et al. (2017) entitled “The Use of Podcasts in Improving
Students’ Speaking Skill”. Podcast is a digital recording which contains a
recorded programs from television, radio, and interviews. Many researchers have
discussed about the podcast as an alternative teaching media to support students
developing their speaking skills. This research article aims at finding out if there
is a significant improvement on students’ speaking skill by using this podcast.
Class XI IS3 was chosen as the sample of this study with total 30 students. This
pre-experimental study employs pre-test and post-test. The finding showed that
there was a significant improvement of the students’ speaking skills performance
after undertaking treatments. The difference between this study and this previous
related study is the method that use to collecting the data. The previous related
study use the pre-experimental method and this study use quasi experimental.
29
The second research was conducted by Wulan (2018) entitled “The Effect
of Implementing Podcast in Enhancing Students’ Speaking Achievement in The
Fully Digital Era”. In the current century, the appropriation of technological
platforms which requires new approaches for education should be fostered to
today’s youth, often referred as digital natives, since they are growing up
surrounded and immersed in rapid technological development. The purpose of the
present study aims to investigate whether the implementation of technological
platforms in language teaching and learning, focused on the implementation of
podcast, helps the students to enhance their speaking achievement. This
experimental study was administered to the eleventh grade students of science
program in which they were assigned into experimental and control group
randomly. To assess the students’ speaking performances in the post-test, analytic
scoring rubric covering content, fluency, accuracy on pronunciation, grammar,
and spelling was involved. From the data analysis, the value of significance
column (2-tailed) was 0.025, which was lower than 0.05 (p
30
independent sample t-tests. The difference this previous related study and this
research is using of the skill. This previous related study is not only to improve
speaking skill but also listening skill and this research is just using speaking skill.
CHAPTER III
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
A. Setting and Subject of the Research
This research will be taken at The Junior High School 30 Muaro Jambi
academic year 2018/2019. The Junior High School 30 Muaro Jambi is located on
JalanPematang Gajah, DesaMendaloDarat, Kecamatan Jambi Luar Kota,
KabupatenMuaro Jambi. The writer will choose the Second Grade of Junior High
School 30 Muaro Jambi. The Second Grade consists of three classes and total
number of the students are 69 Students.
B. Method of the Study
The method of the studyis Quantitative research. (Bryman, 2001, p20)
argue that quantitative research is the research that places empashis on numbers
and figures in the collection and analysis data. Imperatively, quantitative approach
can be seen as being scientific in nature. The use of statistical data for the research
description and analysis reduces the time and effort which the researcher would
have invested in describing the result.
In this research, the researcher uses one of the three types of experimental
research designs which is appropriate for the research, namely quasiexperimental
research design. Quasi-experimental research design is usually used to discover a
31
causal relationship between two variables. In this case, quasiexperimental research
design is used to find out the effect of using podcast as the variable one, on the
students’ speaking skill as the variable two.
C. Operational Definition
In order to avoid misunderstanding, the writer tries to explain the terms
that relate to this study.
1. Podcast
Podcast is Program that available in the internet. Podcast usually is real
recorder, audio or video but it also recording of television program or radio
program, college, another event.
2. Speaking Skill
Speaking is a one of skill we use in English. Speaking The change of
knowledge, information, idea, opinion, feeling that should be a concept and
following from what they want to say.
D. Variables of the Study
Variable is a characteristic or attribute of an individual or an organization
that researchers can measure or observe and varies among individuals or
organizations studied. Measurement means that the researcher records information
from individuals by asking them to answer questions. And when variables vary, it
means that scores will assume different values depending on the type of variable
being measured (Creswell, 2012:112). In this research, there are two variables,
they are:
1. Independent Variable
Independent variable is an attribute or characteristic that influences or
affects an outcome or dependent variable (Creswell, 2012:116). Independent
variable is the cause of other variable. Based on the definition above, the
independent variable of this research is The effect of using Podcast.
2. Dependent Variable
32
Dependent variable is an attribute or characteristic that is dependent on or
influenced by the independent variable (Creswell, 2012:115). This is the effect of
independent variable. This variable is not manipulated by the researcher, but it is
affected by the independent variable. The dependent variable of this research is
the students’ speaking skill.
E. Population and Samples
To get data of the study, the research need a subject. The subject of the
study will be the students of Junior High School 30 Muaro Jambi.
1. Population
The next step of research process is to decide the subjects or students of
the school to be included as the population and sample. According to Ary (2010:
148), population is defined as all members of any well-defined class people,
events, or objects.Population is general area that obtain object or subject who have
quality and specific characteristic, because of limited research is taken from the
population of Junior High School 30 MuaroJambi.The population of this research
will be all of students in Junior High School 30 MuaroJambi.In this research
target population will be the Second Grade of Junior High School 30 Muaro
Jambi of with total number 63 students.

2. Samples
33
The small group that is observed is called a sample. According to Ary
(2010:148),sample is a portion of a population. The representative sample is
sample that has choosen based on characteristic of the population..For the
technique of sampling, the writer uses purposive sampling. It is a sampling
technique which provides the researcher an opportunity to select and choose the
sample from the members of population as her judgment. Therefore, the judgment
of the researcher plays an important part in this sampling design. In this case, the
sample which is chosen purposively by the researcher is two classes of eighth
grade of SMPN 30 Muaro Jambi. Then, those two classes are classified into
experimental class and controlled class. The first class is B with 23 students as the
experimental class and the second class is C with also 23 students as the
controlled class. The writer choose B and C class because these two class are
more active than Class A, so it’s easier to collect the data in this 2 class.
F. Techniques for Collecting the Data
In this research, the techniques which are used by the researcher to collect
the data are the pre-test and the post-test. The first is pre-test. It is a test which is
given to the students in the beginning of the course. This test is given to both
experimental class and controlled class before any treatment is given to
experimental class. The purpose of this test is to know the students’ achievement
in students speaking skill.
The second is post-test. It is a test which is given to the students in the end
of the course. This test is also given to both experimental class and controlled
class. But this test is given to the students after the treatment is given to
experimental class. The purpose of this test is to assess their progress and to get
the information of students’ achievement in speaking skill after being given the
treatments. Furthermore, this research is conducted in 9 meetings. The first
meeting is for the pre-test; the second until the sixth meeting is for the treatment;
and the eighth meeting isfor the post-test. For the first meeting in the experimental
class, the researcher ask the students to do a pre-test. In the pre-test, the students
were asked to listen to the audio podcast after the pre-test was done, the researcher
34
and the students discussed the test done and she also taught briefly about simple
past tense which became a part of descriptive text characteristics. Next, In the
second meeting until the sixth meeting, the researcher taught the students by using
podcast. She allowed the students to listen to the audio podcast about descriptive
text. After that, she reexplained what had been said by the audio and she informed
the students about the descriptive text parts such as, definition, generic structure,
characteristic, and other things relating to descriptive text. Furthermore, the
researcher allowed them to jot down every detail information as an outline. After
that, five minutes were free for them to prepare the material for them to prepare
the material for their speaking. Then, the researchers called them one by one to
retell the podcast talk which was based on the topic given. For the last meeting,
the researcher asked the students to do the post-test which also involved the
podcast. On the other hand, the controlled class was also given the same pre-test
and post-test, but for the treatment, they are taught the descriptive text by using a
traditional technique namely, lecturing.
Bellow is the table rubric speaking assessment :
Aspect Of
Speaking
Rating of
Scales
Description
Pronunciation
5 Speech is fluent and effortless as that native speaker
4 Always intelligible though one is conscious of a definite accent.
3 Pronunciation problems necessitate concentrated listening and Occasionally lead to understanding.
2 Very hard to understand because of pronunciation problem most Frequently asked to repeat.
1 Pronunciation problem so severe as to make speech unintelligible.
Vocabulary
5 Use of vocabulary and idiom virtually that is of native speaker.
4 Sometimes use inappropriate terms and must rephrase ideas, because of inadequate vocabulary.
3 Frequently use the wrong word, conversation somewhat limited because of inadequate vocabulary.
2 Misuse of words and very limited vocabulary make comprehension quite difficult.
1 Vocabulary limitations so extreme as to make
35
conversation virtually impossible.
Fluency
5 Speech is fluent and effortless as that of native speaker.
4 Speed of speech seems rather strongly affected by language problems.
3 Speed and fluency are rather strongly affected by language problems.
2 Usually hesitant often forced into silence by language problems.
1 Speech is so halting and fragmentary as to make conversation virtually impossible.
Comprehension
5 Appear to understand everything without difficulty.
4 Understand nearly everything at normal speed although occasionally repetition may be necessary.
3 Understand most of what is said at slower than normal speed with repetition.
2 Has great difficulty following what is said can comprehend only" social conversation" spoken slowly and with frequent repetition.
1 Cannot be said to understand even simple conversation in English.

3 Frequent errors showing some major patterns uncontrolled and causing occasional irritation and misunderstanding.
2 Few errors, with no patterns of failure.
1 No more than two errors during the dialogue.
Harris (1974:84).
G. Validity of the Instrument
The test is valid to extent that it measures what it claims to be measured.
In accordance to the statement, it can be concluded that a test can be said valid if
what is going to be measured the students’ performance, such as their mastering
of one material that has been given by their teacher in the classroom. In order to
get validity of the test , content validity would be used. Content validity may be
defined as the extent to which a test measures a representative sample of domain
of task under consideration. According to Djali and Pujimulyono (2008:50),
36
Validity is based on the logical analysis, It is not Validity koefisien that count by
statatiska.
According to Arikunto (2008:67), content validity is if the specific
familiar with the material have to study based on curriculum. For making sure that
the test is valid, the items of the test are taken from what they have been learned
before in speaking class.
H. Reliability of the Instrument
Reliability is the consistency of measurement. According to Ary et al
(2010:237) states that reliability is concerned with the effect of errors
measurement on the consistency of scores. A test said reliable if the test is
consistent and dependable. It means that whenever the test is administered, it
would show the similar or even the same result in any situation of test. The
researcher used inter-rater reliability. Gay (1992) State that Inter-rater reliability
can be obtained by having two or more judges independently score the test and
then compare the score of each judge to each test taker. The score of judge 1 can
be correlated to judge 2. The higher the correlation is the higher the interjudge
reliability will be.In this research, the researcher used inter- rater reliability
because the researcher had two raters in order to score the students’ ability in
writing ability.
I. Technique of Data Analysis
1. Descriptive Analysis
In Descriptive analysis, number of sample, the score of minimal, maximal,
mean, and standart deviation. Descriptiveanalysis are obtained from students’ Pre-
test and Post-test score. After the pre-test and post.-test score are obtained from
scoring result. Then will be calculated of N-gain.
2. Statistical Analysis
a. Normality Test
This test will carried out in order to check wheter or not the data is normal.
Data can be classified in to normal when the P-output is higher than 0,05. In
measuring normality test, one sample Kolmogronov Smrinov is used. If the data is
37
normal, the parametric test will used. On the other hand, if the data is not normal,
the nonparametric test will used.
b. Homogeneity test
Homogeneity test is conducted to know whether the data represented the
homogenous or not. In conducting the homogeneity test, the researcher used
Levene Statistic on IBM SPSS Statistics 20 with the significance degree or alpha
(𝑎 = 0.05).
c. T-test
In this case, the data would be analyzed by sample t-test. They are two
kinds of sample t-test. They were independent sample t-test and paired sample t-
test. Paired test is used to see wheter or not there is significant improvement of
students’ speaking achievement before and after the treatment.
To analyze the data obtained from pre-test and post-test of controlled and
experimental class, the researcher used the Independent t-test on IBM SPSS
Statistics 20 after normality and homogeneity were analyzed. After getting the
result of data analyzed by using the Independent t-test, then the data result were
calculated by using Cohen’s d formula to prove whether the effect size of the
technique is strong or not. It is because Cohen’s d is the exact effect size for the
comparison between two means. Its formula as follow:
D =(mean of group A−mean of group B)Pooled Standard Deviatio𝑛
Pooled SD =(standard deviation of group 1+standard deviation of group 2)
2
The criteria of the Cohen’s d effect size measurement are:
NO Effect Size Level of Effect
1 0-0.20 Weak
2 0.21-0.50 Modest
3 0.51-1.00 Moderate
4 1.00 > Strong
38
After the data obtained from the experimental and the controlled class were calculated by using the Independent t-test formula and measured by using Cohen’s d effect size, the hypotheses can be proven with these below assumptions:
Ha.1 = 𝒕𝒐>𝒕𝒕 Ho.1 = 𝒕𝒐 ≤ 𝒕t Ha.2 =to >tt Ho.2 =to≤tt
Notes:
Ha = alternative hypotheses.
H0 = null hypotheses.
𝑡𝑜 = Speaking ability score of the students who taught by using podcast.
𝑡𝑡 = Speaking ability score of the students who taught without using podcast.
Ha.1 = There is a significant effect of using podcast on students’ speaking skill.
H0.1 = There is no a significant effect of using podcast on students’ speaking skill.
Ha.2 =There is significant difference on those who are taught by using podcast media.
H0.2 = There is no significant difference on those who are taught by using podcast media.
The criteria for the hypothesis as follow: 1. If t0 0.05, H0.1 was accepted and Ha.1 was rejected. It means that using of podcast has no effect on students’ speaking skill.
2. If t0>ttable or the significance is < 0.05, H0.1 was rejected and Ha.1 was accepted. It means that using of podcast gave significant effect on students’ speaking skill.
3. If t0 0.05, H0.2 was accepted and Ha.2 was rejected. It means that using of podcast has no difference on those who are taught with it.

As Table 4.6 showed, the mean of post-test score of experimental class (75.00). It indicated that on average, the use of podcast has caused the improvement of students’ score, but it is important to know that such a conclusion is only a descriptive conclusion. It should be tested about being meaningful this progress.

c. Testing Hyphothesis
a. Paired Sample Test
There are two kinds of t-test, paired sample test and independent sample t-test. Paired t-test used to see the different between pre-test and post-test of a group. While the independent t-test to see the different between experimental group and control group. The result of paired sample statistic and sample t-test can be seen below :
Table 4.11

Pair 1 Pre-TestExperiment 51.30 23 9.679 2.018
Post-TestExperiment 75.00 23 12.523 2.611
The data that presented above was the performance scores of the group of students taken as sample, before and after taught by using podcast as the treatment. The mean scores of pre-test was 51.30, while the mean scores of post-test was 75.00. The number of students (N) both in pre-test and post-test were 23 students. The standard deviation of pre-test was 9.679 and the error mean was 2.018. On the post-test, the standard deviation was 12.523 and the error mean was 2.611. Based on the result of mean, it can be concluded that the mean score of pre-test was different from the mean score of post-test.

Based on the table 4.12 the experimental group students’ scores on post-test were better in which the mean 75.00 than their scores on pre-test the mean 51,30. In addition, the two tailed value of was 0.000 which was lower than 0,05.
The calculation was carried out in order to know how well the treatment worked, We can see that the value of t was 8.870. the way to test whether null hypothesis could be rejected by comparing the result of tcountandttable. If the result of tcountis higher than ttable at the level of significance 0.05, then the null hypothesis can be rejected. In consulting to ttable, the researcher needed to find out the degree of freedom, as can be seen in Table 4.12 that the Degree of Freedom is 22, the researcher consulted to the ttable, at the level of significance 0.05, the value of ttable is 1.717 Comparing to the value of tcountandttable (8.870>1.717). Thus, the null hyphothesis was rejected ( Ho1) and alternative hypothesis is not rejected (Ha1) because there was a significant effect between pre-test and post-test in experimental class. It means that the treatment worked very well.

This statement based on the probability gate:
If Probability>0.05, Ho is accepted
If Probability 1,680. Based on the table the significant value 0.000 and the significant level 0.05, it means that the significant level is higher than significant value. The researcher concluded that H02is rejected and Ha2 is accepted. Because there was a significant differences of using podcast on students’ Speaking Skill at the Second Grade of SMP 30 muarojambi.

B. Interpretasion
The aims of this study were to find out whether or not there was a significant effect and different score of the second grade students’ achievement in speaking skill of descriptive text. The result showed that there was a significant effect of group who are taught by using podcast and those who are not. This can be seen from the result of pre-test and post-test in both of groups. The mean score of pre-test in experimental class was 51.30 and the mean score of post-test was 75.00. Meanwhile, the mean score of pre-test of control groups was 52.83 and the mean score of post-test was 60.87
Then result of this study also indicated that there was a significant different after and before taught by using podcast. Its known from students’ score in post-test in experimental class and control class. The mean of post test in experimental class was 75.00 and the mean of post-test in control class was 60.87. it means that there are significant differences between control class and experimental class, after treatment with podcast in experimental class.
From the result of calculation, it was obtained the tcount was 4.437 ; meanwhile, the ttable (tt) of df ( 44 ) in significant 5 % was 1,680. It means tcountwas higher than ttable (tt), so the alternative hyphothesis (Ha2) was accepted and the null hyphothesis (Ho2) was rejected.
In Table 4.12 that the Degree of Freedom is 22, the researcher consulted to the ttable, at the level of significance 0.05, the value of t table is 1.717 Comparing to the value of tcountandttable (8.870>1.717). Thus, the null hyphothesis was rejected ( Ho1) and alternative hypothesis is not rejected (Ha1) because there was a significant effect between pre-test and post-test in experimental class. It means that the treatment worked very well.
Moreover, another research which has same strategy in another research from Wulan(2018) with her research entitled“The Effect of Implementing Podcast in Enhancing Students’ Speaking Achievement in The Fully Digital Era”. The result showed that the t-count> t-table (0,025 > 0,05). It means that the hypothesis alternative (Ha) is accepted, which shows that podcast significantly effects the students’ speaking skill.
Samad et al (2017) entitled “The Use of Podcasts in Improving Students’ Speaking Skill”. The result showed that (df) was N-1=30-1=29, where the t-table is 2.045. Indeed, as has been noted above t-score was higher than t-table(t-score=8.21>t-table=2.045). It can be concluded that alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted, and null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected.

Fitria et al (2015) entitled “Using Podcast to Improve Students’ Listening and Speaking Achievements”. The result showed thatthe post-test mean difference of the students’ speaking achievement between the experimental and control groups was 16.667 and the mean differences of the students’ speaking aspects; accuracy was 5.367, fluency was 5.4, and comprehension was 5.433 with speaking and its aspect p-value of independent sample t-test was 0.000. It was lower than 0.05. The second null hypothesis (Ho2) was rejected and the second research hypothesis (Ha2) was accepted.
Then resultof the study also indicated that there was a significant different after and before taught by using podcast. This result showed that the students are more interested to speak and find new idea by using podcast. The finding indicates that the use podcast is proven effective to increase the students’ speaking skill. Studying with podcast, students can find more interesting ways of learning in speaking skill especially in descriptive and the understanding of the students is better.

CHAPTER V
CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION
A. Conclusion
The result of the study indicated that using podcast in teaching podcast has a significant effect and significant differences in speaking skill. Significance effect means that when the researcher taught speaking skill of descriptive text by using podcast the students were to be easier to learn. Based on the data from quasi experimental at second grade of SMP 30 MuaroJambi :
1. Significant effect of using podcast at second grade of SMP 30 Muaro Jambi. In line with it, the researcher consulted to the ttable, at the level of significance 0.05, the value of ttable is 2.074. Comparing to the value of tcountandttable (8.870 >1.717). Thus, the null hyphothesis was rejected ( Ho1) and alternative hypothesis is not rejected (Ha1) because there was a significant effect between pre-test and post-test in experimental class.
2. Significant differences in speaking skill between those who are taught by podcast and those who are not of second grade students of SMP 30 Muaro Jambi.The tcount is compared to ttable either at 0.05 At the level statistic of 0.05 ttable is 1,680. Based on the ttable, it can be analysed that tcount is higher than ttable, at the level of 0.05, In other words, we can read 4.437> 1,680. Thus, the researcher concluded that H02 is rejected and Ha2 is accepted.It means that there is significant differences of using podcast at second grade SMP 30 Muaro Jambi.
Podcast gives positive impact towards students’ speaking skill achievement.There a significant effect and differences of students’ speaking skillafter being taught through Podcast

B. Suggestion
1. English teachers should consider the time allocation for the treatments.
There must be a good preparation of the materials before, because the
material should be delivered and explained to the students completely and
systematically.
2. The students should realize that they have main role in learning activity
especially in Kurikulum 2013 which uses student-center approach. It means
that the successful of teaching and learning activity is based on them.
3. Further researchers who are interested in doing similar study should
understand the problems deeply in order get better research result and also
should use the media or technique that make students interested in the
material and understand easily.
