Abstrak

Teaching of English as a foreign language has been practiced for decades but the result is far from satisfactory, which can be seen from the students’ achievement. Based on the writers’ experience, the drama show helps the students develop their English achievement. The objectives of this research are: 1) to find out the English achievement (listening, speaking, and writing) of the students before implementing the drama show, 2) to find out the English achievement (listening, speaking, and writing) of the students after implementing the drama show, 3) to find out whether there is significant difference between students’ English achievement (listening, speaking and writing) before and after being taught through drama show. To achieve those objectives, a quasi experimental research is conducted with one group pre & post test. The population of this research is the eleventh grade students of MAN 2 Kudus in the academic year 2011/2012. The sample are Class A consisting of 44 students. The instruments used to measure the English achievement is: test (listening test, speaking test, and writing test. The data is analyzed by using t-test. The result of this research indicates that teaching English through drama can improve the students’ English achievement. It can be seen from the pre-test and post-test result. Based on the analyzing data, it was found that the English achievement of the eleventh grade students of MAN 2 Kudus before being taught through drama in academic year 2011/2012 is categorized as sufficient. (Mean of listening ability = 69.5, mean of speaking ability = 59, and mean of writing ability = 64.9). After they are taught through drama, their English achievement is categorized as good. (Mean of listening ability = 85.18, mean of speaking ability = 74.14, and mean of writing ability = 78.5). Thus, the hypothesis is confirmed at the level of significance 0.05 is 2.06 and degree of freedom (N-1) = 27 shows that there is significant difference between the English achievement of the eleventh grade students of MAN 2 Kudus before and after being taught through drama. For listening ability the level of significance is 5% and the degree of freedom is 27 (t-table = 2.06 < t-observation = 12.37); for speaking ability, the level of significance is 5%, and the degree of freedom is 27 (t-table = 2.06 < t-observation = 8.41); and for writing ability, level of significance 5% and degree of freedom 27. (t-table = 2,06 < t-observation = 10.3). Based on the results of the research, the writers suggest that the teacher can use drama as an alternative media in teaching listening, speaking, and writing. The teacher should control the students well when the students feel bored in teaching learning process especially.
