ABSTRACT
Nur Mubin, Dhasi. 2013. The Use of Drilling Technique to Improve Vocabulary Mastery of The Fourth Grade Students of MI Miftahul Huda Suwawal 01 Pakis Aji Jepara In The Academic Year of 2010/2011. Final Project, English Education Study Program, Faculty of Languages and Arts Education, IKIP PGRI Semarang. Advisor I: Drs. A. Wiyaka, M.Pd, Advisor II: A.B. Prabowo KA, S.Pd. M. Hum.
To understand English vocabulary is very important for English learners. But to teach vocabulary mastery to fourth grade students of elementary school is not easy way. The teacher must find an appropriate method or technique to make students feel enjoy during the learning process in the class.
This final project is based on study which attempted to examine the use of drilling technique to improve vocabulary mastery of fourth grade students of MI Miftahul Huda Suwawal 01 Pakis Aji Jepara in academic year of 2011/2012. The purpose of this study is to find out the students’ difficulties in understanding English vocabulary, to know if drilling technique can improve students’ vocabulary mastery and to find out if there is any significant difference between students that are taught using drilling technique and those who are not.
The subject of the study is the fouth grade students of MI Miftahul Huda Suwawal 01 in the academic year of 2010 / 2011. There were 28 students (14 girls and 14 boys). The writer took all of them as the subject of the study. The technique used for collecting data is pre-test and post-test. Students’ vocabulary mastery was tested first. After got the result, the training using drilling technique was started. Then, students were tested again. The results of pre-test and post-test were then compared to find out if there were any significant differences or not.
Result showed that the students’ score was significantly increasing. In pre-test, 39% students are in level very weak and 61% are in fail. But the post-test result showed that 64% got satisfactory and only 36% in very weak with no student got fail. It meant that the drilling technique improved students’ skill in vocabulary mastery.

CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
A. Background of the Study
English is one of international languages, which is used throughout the
world and also English is used in many field of life such as: in Politics,
Economics, Social and Education. Therefofe, English, as a language in
international communication, is cleary by many learners to deliver thought and
interact in variety of situation.
Nowadays, English is widely used in the world. Second or Foreign
language learners have several advantages over people who do not know
another language. Competency in using another language is essential in the
world which demands people to communicate more effectively with others.
Shafer (2002) declares that “learning another language frees you, broadens
your mind and enhances your cognitive flexibility. The more languages you
know, the more doors open to you”.
At this time, teaching English particularly at elementary schools in
Indonesia has totally been encouraged. This attempt is purposed to familiarize
pupils with English at an early stage. Almost all elementary schools in
Indonesia particular conduct English teaching. It has been 11 years that English
teaching is run since the Decree of Minister of Education and Culture Number
060/U/1993 regarding English as a local content subject matter starting from
the fourth grade was issued (Suyanto, 2004).
13
English teaching involves of four language skill, they are listening,
speaking, reading and writing. In teaching and learning a language, there are
four aspects that support four language skills above such as grammar,
vocabulary, spelling and pronunciation that are also taught in English teaching
and learning process.
English is an introduction language spoken in international event and is
used the medium of information flow on science, technology, and culture as
well. As we are in developing country we should try to be able to speak
English to make relationship with other country in the world so that we can
master the science, technology and culture in the world, so we can face the
competition in the global era. By mastering English, it is easier for us to make
a good relationship with other countries.
This drill used when a long line of dialog is giving student trouble. The
teacher breaks down the line into several parts. The student repeat a part of the
sentence, usually the last phrase of the line. Then, following the teacher’s cue,
the student expand what they are repeating part by part until they are able to
repeat the entire line. This also directs more student attention to the end of the
sentence, where new information typical accore (Larsen, 2004: 48).
In this study, the writer tries to find out how good the drilling technique
if it is used to improve the vocabulary mastery to fourth grades of elementary
school students. The study concerns with the teaching and learning process in
English that is focused on the vocabulary mastery of fourth grade students of
MI Miftahul Huda Suwawal Pakis Aji Jepara in academic year of 2010/2011.
14
B. Reasons for Choosing the Topic
There are some reasons why the writer chooses the topic “The Use of
Drilling Technique To Improve Vocabulary Mastery of Fourth Grade Students
of MI Miftahul Huda Suwawal 01 In Academic Year 2010/2011”. Those are:
1. Students’ vocabulary mastery is still not good enough and by using
drilling technique the students will be much easier and happier while
learning English.
2. As a student of English department, I have a great interest in this problem.
I just try to solve the problem in teaching vocabulary mastery especially at
elementary school.
3. I also try to help the students in learning vocabulary since they have
difficulties on it.
C. Statements of the Problem
In this study, the writer wants to find some answers from problems
found in the research object. The statements of the problem that will be
discussed in this study are:
1. What are the students’ difficulties in understanding English vocabulary?
2. To what extent does drilling technique improve students’ vocabulary
mastery?
3. Is there any significance difference between students that are taught using
drilling technique and those who are not?
15
D. The Objectives of the Study
The objectives of the study are to describe the teaching and learning
process of teaching vocabulary mastery to the fourth grade students of
elementary school. The objectives of the study can be stated as follows:
1. To know the students’ difficulties in understanding English vocabulary.
2. To know if drilling technique can improve students’ vocabulary mastery.
3. To identify if there is any significance difference between students that are
taught using drilling technique and those who are not.
E. Significance of the Study
After finishing this study, the writer demands the significances of this
study will be useful for:
a. For Writer
The writer will get a valuable experience and knowledge in teaching English
in elementary school. So, if someday he becomes an English teacher in
elementary school, of course he will be a good teacher. Moreover, he can
share his experience and knowledge in teaching by using drilling technique
to others who want to teach English.
b. For English Teacher
The English teacher may use the drilling technique to improve students’
skill in vocabulary mastery and also may try to find another method that
must be useful for students. Besides, the teacher also can see the
effectiveness or ineffectiveness of such technique in teaching. Moreover, the
16
teacher also will become more creative and of course want to try another
methods in teaching English beside the conventional method.
c. For Students
The students will enjoy the learning process and have a thought that English
is easy and interesting subject. So, they will be able to use and understand
English as a means of communication and so on. This will bring a good
motivation for student in learning English.
F. Definition of Key terms
a. Drilling Technique
Drilling technique refers to behaviorist approach where the students are
suggested to be used to with foreign language the students learn (Larsen,
2004).
b. Vocabulary Mastery
Vocabulary mastery is how the students ability in acquiring vocabulary and
use it in daily communication.
c. MI Miftahul Huda Suwawal 01

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF THE RELATED LITERATURE
A. English Language Teaching
English is one of many languages in the world. There are some doubts
as to its future status, but even in the present it is worth countering the idea that
is an all embracing world language. There are many more people in the world,
especially in Indonesia, who do not speak English than there are people who
do. Therefore, English language teaching has an inmportant role in improving
lanuage skill. Harmer (2004: a. 57) describes that teaching means to give
(someone knowledge) or to instruct or train (someone). It is undertaking certain
ethical task or activities the intension of which is to induce learning. Therefore,
English language teaching means that the teacher gives some knowledge about
English so that they can use English well anywhere. Based on the 2006
curriculum, English is one of the primary subjrcts at school. The objectives of
teaching english to Elementary students as a primary subject of the study are:
1. Developing the communication skill in English both spoken and writen
language. The ability to communicate includes listening, speaking, reading,
and writing.
2. Giving information that English is one of the most important foreign
languages that bacome means of communication in education.
3. Developing the understanding of language and culture. Therefore the
children will have knowledge about culture. The role of an english teacher
19
in elementary school is very important because he/she has the task to
develop the material and technique in teaching in the classroom in order
the students can master English well. The teacher need to have special
training or education to have knowledge to prepare a good lesson, provide
appropriate resources to learn, and so on. In other words, a teacher with
good educational background logically hack chance to be a good facilitator.
Good environment and media also support the success of language
teaching. Therefore the teacher must create a good condition and make
his/her teaching interesting for them and be very helpful to encourage
them to learn English.
B. School Based Curriculum (KTSP)
In school based curriculum, it is stated that there arae four literacy
levels: performative, functional, informational, and epistemic. In performative
level, people can read and write, and speak symbol. In functional level, student
are expected to be able to use language in their daily life. In informational level,
student are expected to produce knowledge by their languge themselves.
In school based curriculum (KTSP), the elementary school students are
expected to reach informational level because they are prepared to the junior
high school. Therefore, literacy is the focus of the development of learning
English in this curriculum. Kinds of texts used are texts that can support the
extent of academic literacy degree. Verbal communication activity is a process
of producing texts both spoken and written. Hyland (2004: 6) states that texts
20
are autonomous objects which can be anlyzed and described independently of
particular context, writers or readers. Texts have a structure. They are orderly
arrangement of words, clauses, sentences, by following the princilpes which
guide the correct arrangement of elements. Writers can encode full semantic
representation of their intended meaning. From the definition above I can
conclude that texts are a group of words or organizes patterns of spoken or
written language that has meaning.
C. Teaching Vocabulary with Drilling Technique in Elementary School
As stated before that elementary school students are expected to reach
informational level because they are prepared to the Junior High School. They
are expected to produce knowledge using their own language. In this case, the
students must be able to understand more vocabularies.
In elementary school, literacy is the focus of development learning
English in this curriculum. One of the goals in learning English at elementary
school is to develop communicationskill in English both spoken and written
language, but the mater just basic English. Therefore, the teachers must be
careful in teaching English to his/her students. According to school based
curriculum (KTSP) of elementary school, the teching are as follows:
1. Grammar focus (simple present tense, simple past tense).
2. Introducing texts (narrative, recount, descriptive).
3. Vocabulary around school and around us.
21
From the explanation above, I come to a conclusion that teaching
English for elementary school students must be related to curriculum.
Furthermore, the teacher must be able to make an interesting teaching
especially in teaching English to communicate. The parent would be very
helpful to encourage them to learn English and finally the expected result can
be reached.
D. General Concept of Drilling Technique
Meyers (2005 : 2) states that writing and vocabulary is a way to
produce language you do naturally when you speak. English is speaking to
other on paper – or on a computer screen. vocabulary is also an action – a
process of discovering and organizing your ideas, putting them on a paper and
reshaping and revising them. In other words, Palmer (1994 : 5) states that
vocabulary is recursive. It goes back and forth we plan a little, put words on
paper, stop to plan when we want to say next, go back and change a sentence,
or change our minds altogether.
Drills can be useful teaching-learning material because they provide
practice of small, manageable chunks of language. This helps to build
confidence and automatic use of structures and expressions that have been
drilled. Also, they can be part of a teaching or learning sequence that
progresses from more towards less controlled practice.
Mary Spratt (1991) noted that drills can be either mechanical or
meaningful. Mechanical drills are controlled by the teacher who provides drill
22
cues to which students respond. These drills can give beginning students a
chance to articulate the new language fluently. Meaningful drills are controlled
by the teacher as well as by the students who must understand the drill cues in
order to respond. Meaningful drills are more desirable than mechanical drills
because they provide a reason for speaking and are thus more engaging and
motivating. Spratt (10–11) points out these requisites for meaningful drills:
1. They should look like real language, containing hesitations, proper social
reactions such as exclamations, questions, or comments that require a
response. They can even consider register and nonverbal elements.
2. The response should not be totally predictable; a variety of responses
should be incorporated.
3. They should involve genuine reactions between or among the speakers.
4. They should be purposeful and based on topics of relevance to students.
5. They should be sufficiently controlled and allow the teacher to observe how
well learning has taken place.
6. They should allow for sustained language practice.
E. Steps in Drilling
Diane Larsen in book “ Technique and Principle in Language Teaching
(2004 : 49) states that there are three steps to drilling technique, among others;
1. Students are asked to repeat the teacher model as accurately and as
quickly as possible.
23
2. The teacher walks around the room as student, one by one, ask and answer
question of each teacher. The teacher begins the chain by greeting a
particular student or asking him question.
3. The teacher begins with the part at the end of the sentence (and works
backward from there) to keep the intonation of the line as natural as
possible.
This drill is used when the teacher gine lesson to the student about
vocabulary. The teacher breaks down the vovabulary into last parts. The
teacher gives students a certain kind of sentence patter, an affirmative sentence
for example. Students are asked to meaning of vocabulary to the teacher.
F. Chain Drill
Diane Larsen ( 2004 : 50) A chain drill gets its name from the chain of
conversation that forms around the rooms as student, one-by-one, ask and
answer question of each teacher. The teacher begins the chain by greeting a
particular student or asking him a question. The student responds, and then
turns to the students sitting next him. This technique will be applied in the
research.
G. Second or Foreign Language Learning
Every one acquires his or her first language gradually but
subconsciously. He or she never learns the patterns of the language but through
the exposure of the language used by their adults.
24
It quit differs with language learning. Second or foreign language
learning means acquiring new habits or ways of using the speech organs and
learning the forms and the arrangements of forms required by the system
(Marry Finocchiaro, 1974:19). In language learning, acquiring habits of the
language comes through the intensive and extensive practice of numerous
examples.
In the section which now follows, the writer will discuss the models of
language learning proposed by Littlewood (1989). Those models are the
creative construction model and the skill-learning model.
1. Second or Foreign Language Learning as Creative Construction
A model of a second or foreign language learning that has become
increasingly influential is one, which sees it as a creative construction.
According to this model the learner constructs a series of internal
representations of the language system. This occurs as a result of natural
processing strategies and exposure to the second or foreign language
communication situations. Whenever the right kind of exposure takes
place, the learner’s internal representation develop gradually in predictable
stages, in the direction of the native speaker’s competence. This model
owes a lot of similar concepts proposed for first language learning.
Diagrammatically, the process can be represented as follows:
2. Second Language Learning as a Form of Skill Learning
This model which is implicit in most current approaches to teaching a
second or foreign language contrasts sharply with the creative construction
25
model The creative construction model emphasizes on the cognitive
processing strategies that the leaner bring to the tasks in order to develop
internal representations of the seconds or foreign language. On the other
hand, the skill-learning model is based on the assumption that if we
require the learner to produce predetermined pieces of language (through
drills or question and answer practice) this productive Second language
exposure Processing strategies Temporary representation of the system
utterances activity will lead them to internalize the system underlying the
language.
3. Organizing
After you have put your ideas into words, you can begin to organize them.
This process involves selecting, subtracting, and adding. Think again
about your purpose and audience what goal does you want to accomplish –
to inform, persuade, or entertain? What point do you want to make? And
what should you tell your readers so that you can accomplish those goals?
Return to your technique and do the following :
a. Underline or highlight best ideas in your brainstorming list, putting
related ideas together. Add to the as more ideas occur to you and
remove or ignore the parts that are not related to your choices.
b. Choose the part of the clustering diagram that has the best ideas. Do a
second clustering diagram that explores those ideas in greater detail.
Ignore the parts of the original diagram that are not related to your
choice.
26
c. Circle or highlight the best parts of your drill. Do a secend even a third
free vocabulary on them, Ignore the parts of each vocab that are not
related to your choice. And focus more specifically on your subject and
add more details.
d. Outlining
After selecting, subtracting and adding, the teacher can make an
informal outline. (Meyers, 2005 : p.5-6)
H. The Characteristics of Elementary School Students
In general, elementary school students are the children at the age
between seventh up to thirteenth years old in which they will be an adult. The
following are some general characteristics as the children of that group
according to thulus Hidayat (1997: 10):
1. The elementary school students still need another help in learning.
2. They prefer to practice something interesting than studying the lesson.
3. They often do or imitate negative thing from what they know or they watch.
4. They prefer to state their ideas than to obey the advice from another people.
5. Most of elementary school students are creative and like new experience.
6. Usually they need new information and asking something.
I. Drilling Technique and Oral Work
Dr. M.F. Patel and Praveen M. Jain in book “English Language
Teaching” (2008 : 103-106) When there is talking and writing there is also
27
reading. Mr. Mehta says there is much difference between speaking and
reading. When person speak then words come naturally but in reading there
is just reading or speaking of only that things which have been written in the
text. There is in order of importance. The tongue is important tool of speaking
and reading so when there is writing and speaking, there is reading also. The
logical starting place of any language teaching is oral work.
Usefulness of Oral Work or Drilling Technique (Praveen M. Jain, 2008 : 104)
1. To suggest new ideas: When teacher wants to increase the vocabulary of
students, he at first should introduce the new ideas to the students so that
student could be able to increase his vocabulary. During this process, the
teacher should not apply his own notions on students. He should put a topic'
before students so that there will be discuss or talking among them on the
topic. Teacher should put topic according to experiences and interests of
students.
2. When teacher introduces new ideas, then new word also should be
introduced to students so that students could be acquainted of new words.
With little efforts students can learn two or three words of English language.
Thus student can be strong in remembering of words.
3. When students learn new ideas and new words, then he should be given the
knowledge of way of arranging words properly. There is much difference in
order of words in English and Indonesian language. Teacher should tell
about the two patterns of the languages. So that student could understand it
very well so that they could apply them in their speech.
28
Importance of Drilling Technique (Dr. M.F. Patel, 2008):
1. It unable student to speaks very effectively and mastery on communicate
on skill.
2. It makes student perfect in any kind of reading and writing.
3. Drilling technique and oral work helps students to read lesson of the text
very effectively and it helps to prepare the way for textual teaching.
4. Drilling technique and oral work helps students to improve their spelling
mistake.
5. Drilling technique and oral work remits the pronunciation mistakes and
thus develops the habit of correct or accurate speech.
J. Technique in Teaching Vocabulary
(John, 1997: 27) The teaching of vocabulary as an activity can ba down
into four separate parts. Each of these four parts will be single word. The word
should be arranged as follows:
1. The first vocabulary should tell something about think around us. What kind
of work what is this? Where was the think place?
2. The second paragraph should describe human body. What is this? What
kind of human body?
3. The third paragraph shoul tell how the use the think around us, by whom?
4. The fourth pargraph should give the moral of the story. What did you learn
from the experience? Were you able to apply what you learned to other
experiences in your life?
29
K. Reasons For Using Drilling Technique
There are six reasons why the writer using Drilling Method Diane
Larsen (2000:103). Those are:
1. Drilling technique is useful for presenting new grammatical and
vocabulary items.
2. Drilling technique allows for meaningful practice or vocabulary and
structures presented by the teacher.
3. Drilling technique can also provide a stimulus for using the language at the
reproduction and manipulation to speak, to read, to write.
4. Drilling technique can be used for revision from one lesson to another as
well as for long term revision or vocabulary and structure.
5. Drilling technique can be used to supplement whatever textbook the
teacher is using or whatever course he is following.
6. Drilling technique is easy to collect, to make and to transport.
L. Previous Study
The previous study was done by Dhasi Nur Mubin. He did a study on
using a chain drill to improve students’ fluency in speaking English (the case
of the fourth grade students of MI Miftahul Huda Suwawal 1 in academic year
of 2010/2011). The result of his study showed that there were any significant
improvements in speaking for student after they were taught by using such
method. That’s why the writer wants to do a study using such method in
different object.

CHAPTER III
METHODOLOGY OF THE RESEARCH
A. Research Design
A research method used in this study is an action research. Action
research is focused on the immediate application, not on the development on
theory, no upon general application. This research will be conducted in the
classroom. This activity contains several cycles. In each cycle have four
elements: planning, acting, observing and reflecting. In order to be clear, the
writer will have to present the Lewin’s model of action research. It can be
depicted as follows:
According to Elliot (1996: 70), based on the model above, there is a
basic cycle of activities. The activities can be elaborated as follows:
1. Identifying Initial Idea
The initial media refers to a state of situation one wishes to change or
to improve on, (Elliot, 1991: 72). In this research the initial idea is thought
that there will be a change on picture in drilling technique.
2. Planning
Planning is followed up for identifying the text to find out solution for
problems. This research is intended to find out:
a) The students’ response during learning process.
b) The students’ improvement of vocabulary.
c) The writer will conduct four cycles of research to know
31
d) The student improvement of picture vocabulary. To know students’
ability in producing the Drilling vocabulary, the writer asks to the
students to vocabulary.
B. Implementing
Implementing is the performing of planned action. Based the model
above, the researcher can change the plans after conducting one step when
they are needed. In this study, the writer will conduct five activities the
elaboration of plans is as follows:
1. First cycle
In the first step, the teacher show picture to the student, The second
part is to do Join Construction of the vocabulary, where there will be four
activities. After conducting and observing the implementing cycle, the
next step that the writer will be done is evaluating. The evaluating is a
fact-finding about the result of the action. It is an analysis to find out the
influence of vocabulary in drilling for improving the students in learning
vocabulary.
a. Modeling of the Vocabulary
In the first activity of Modeling of the Text, the writer will introduce
vocabulary to the students. The theme is “Things around us“. The
theme of the vocab is about things around us. Then the writer will
distribute the vocab to the students. The students are grouped into
several groups consist of two students. Ask them to understand the
32
content of vocabulary and discuss it. The summary of the vocabulary is:
“Book, table, chair, blackboard”. In the second activity of Modeling of
the Vovabulary, the writer will ask the students to understand the
vocabulary. The both the writer and the students will discuss the
vocabulary. The generic structures of drilling are orientation/exposition,
resolution/felling action, and resolution. In the third activities of drilling
vocabulary, the writer will explain about last vocabulary. Then the
researcher will ask to the students to make sentences using this
vocabulary as exercises before making the true good sentence.
b. Join Sentence with Vocabulary
In the first activity Join Sentence with Vocabulary, the writer will ask to
the students to make a plan to write a sentence in a group. It is based on
the vocabulary that had been given before. In this case, the students
should try to explore their idea and then should arrange the main idea
every paragraph. In the second activity, the writer will ask to the
students to arrange the first draft of sentence based on the vocabulary
given and pay attention to the good structure of the sentence and
consult the work to the teacher or writer and friends. The writer or
teacher will give suggestion. In the third activity, the writer will ask to
the students to discuss the suggestion given by writer or teacher and
friends. Then giving the suggestion to the friends need. They may be
able to use dictionary if they have difficulties in vocabulary. In the
fourth activity, the students should arrange the sentence based on the
33
suggestion given by the writer or teacher and friends. After arranging
the sentence, the students will read once more carefully. They should
pay attention to the good structure o the sentence, spelling, vocabulary,
punctuation, etc. if there are many mistakes, they have to revise it.
2. Second Cycle
In the second cycle, the writer will divide the activities into two parts.
The first is to do Modeling of the sentence where there will be three
activities. The second part is to do Independent Construction of the
sentence where there will be five activities.
a. Modeling of the Drilling Vocabulary
In the first activities of Modeling of the drilling vocabulary, the writer
will discuss about vocabulary “Part of Body“. The theme of the
vocabulary is about name of the body. The second activities, the writer
and the students will discuss about the good structure of the vocabulary .
Then, the writer will recall the lesson about arrange sentence to make
sure that the students have known about the sentence that will be used
in good sentence.
In the third activities the writer will give an opportunity to the
studentsto ask about everything that relate to the vocabulary before
they are given assignment to produce vocabulary individually.
b. Independent Construction of the Vocabulary
In first the activity of Independent Construction of the vocabulary, the
writer will ask to the students to make planning to write vocabulary
34
individually. It is based on the vocabulary given before. In this case, the
students should try to explore their ides and arrange it in a paragraph.
In the second activity, the writer will ask to the students to arrange the
first sentence of vocabulary based on the vocabulary given and consult
the work to the writer or their teacher.
In the third activity, the writer will ask to the students to arrange the
second sentence based on the vocabulary given by the writer or their
teacher. They may be able to use dictionary if they have many
difficulties in new vocabulary.
In the fourth activities, the students should read the sentence once more
carefully before making the final copy. The students should pay
attention to the spelling, vocabulary, pronoun, etc. if there are many
mistakes, they must revise the draft and finally they arrange the final
copy of the sentence.
In the fifth activity, the writer will make interview to students to know
about the difficulties they have in producing sentence.
C. Subject of the Study
1. Population
Population is a group about which the researcher is interested in gaining
information and drawing conclusions. If the researcher were interested in
the educational aspirations of teachers, for example, the population of the
study would be teachers (Tuckman, 1978:227). In addition, population is
35
any group of people, objects or things having characteristics from which
researcher gets data. Population in this study is the fourth grade students of
MI Miftahul Huda Suwawal 01 Pakis Aji Jepara in the academic year
2011/2012.
2. Sample
Tuckman (1978:226) said that when we do a study, we must select a sample
or representative group from such population to serve as respondents. In this
study, the writer will use all students in fourth grade of MI Miftahul Huda
Suwawal 01 Pakis Aji Jepara in the academic year 2010/2011 as sample.
The number of fourth grade students of MI Miftahul Huda Suwawal 01
Pakis Aji Jepara in the academic year 2010/2011 used in this study is 28.
The writer uses all fourth grade students as sampling. Therefore, the writer
uses total sampling method.
D. Instrument of the Study
Instrument of research refers to devices used in observing and
recording events or gathering data (Saleh, 2001:17). There are many
instruments used in collecting data. There are questionnaire, interview,
observation, test, etc (Arikunto, 1998:137). In this study, the writer only used
two instruments, namely test and observation.
The researcher used a test to assess the student’s mastery on the
material given. Test is very useful to measure subjects’ achievement in such
given material. Evaluation such as test, demonstration, quiz, help very much
36
to answer. Thus, evaluation should be a significant aspect in the teaching
process. Teacher cannot judge directly on the teaching and learning process,
unless evaluation of learners’ performance occurs.
E. Data Collection
Data are very important because research finding comes from the
interpretation of the collected data. To collect the data the writer held a field
research. The writer conducted the teaching process then gave a pre-test to
assess the students’ vocabulary mastery. Then, after giving treatment using
drilling technique, the writer gave them post-test. The writer also made
observation during the teaching process to observe the students’ attitude in
the class.
F. Method of Analyzing Data
Through scoring, the results of the students’ work will be useful to
depict students’ level of writing achievement. Since the purpose of the
research is to measure the students’ proficiency, the writer interpret the result
both statistically and non statistically.
After conducting the test, the writer did scoring and classifying them
into some categories. The scores here used to depict the students’ level of
achievement.
In line with the research conducted; descriptive study, the researcher
uses the descriptive statistical analysis to analyze the students’ achievement.
37
There are five kinds of descriptive statistical analysis namely mean, median,
mode, and standard deviation.
a. Mean
Mean is gained by adding a list of scores and then dividing by the number
of scores (Tuckman, 1978:250). It is the average of group scores and used
to determine the position of the students in achieving the material given.
The formula used to determine and find mean is :
Mx = ∑��
In which:
Mx = mean
∑X = the sum of X or any test scores
N = number of samples
b. Median
Median is the score in the middle; 50 percent of the scores fall above it,
and 50 percent of the scores fall below it (Tuckman, 1978:251). It is also
called as the fiftieth percentile. It is a description of the distribution of the
scores and considered as the complement information of the average
scores.
c. Mode
Mode is the score that most frequently occurs in distribution of the data. It
is the score that has maximum frequency in the data.
38
d. Standard Deviation
Standard deviation is an average of the degree to which a set of scores
deviates from the mean. It is used for a set o scores is a measurement of
the variability of the scores in the distribution. The closer the spread of
scores, the smaller the standard deviation is, and the greater the spread of
the scores the larger the deviation is. The procedure to compute the
standard deviation is done by subtracting the mean of each score to obtain
the deviation of the scores from the mean. Then, square each of the
deviation to obtain x². Secondly, the sum of x² is divided by the number of
objects (N) and the square root. The following is the formula of standard
deviation.
SD = �∑fX²N In which:
SD = Standard Deviation
∑X2 = the sum of deviation squared
N = total of the subjects
G. Method of Reporting the Result
In the reporting the result of analysis the data, I will apply both
statistical and non-statistical analysis to report the result of the students’
achievement in vocabulary lesson. Principally the procedure of reporting the
result will fulfill at least two criteria:
39
1. The report readers’ know or understand what the aim of the report is. It
means that the readers can interpret the report properly.
2. The report will be objective. It means that the report describe the real
condition of the research.
In reporting the result of the study, there are many various ways.
Those can be in form of tables, charts, statistical data, etc. To categorize and
describe the students’ achievement, the researcher used the frequency
distribution and counted the students’ scores using Tinambunan formula:
Table 3.1. Tinambunan’s classification of achievement
The Percentage of Correct Answers
Grade Levels of Achievement
93 – 100% (A) Outstanding Outstanding Achievement
85 – 92% (B) Very Good Above Average
75 – 84% (C) Satisfactory Average
60 – 74% (D) Very Weak Below Average
Below 60% (E) Fail Insufficient

CHAPTER IV
RESEACH FINDINGS AND DISCUSSION
In this chapter I would like to report and the discussions the result of
the result of the study. The data analysis consisted of statistical analysis and non-
statistical analysis.
A. Research Findings
In this section, the writer does the research to gain data to be discussed
then. The writer does two steps, those are:
1. Process of the Study
This study was intended to know the students’ mastery of vocabulary
the drilling technique. In this case the samples were the fourth graders of
MI Miftahul Huda Suwawal Timur Pakis Aji Jepara in the academic year
of 2010/2011.
2. Scoring of the Test
The test consisted of thirty items. For the first part, the task is multiple
choices. And the second part is essay. There are twenty questions in the
form of multiple choices and ten simple questions in the form of essay.
To make the interpretation easy, the correct answers for multiple choices
are multiplied by three. And the essay questions are multiplied by four. If
a student answered the test 100 % correctly, he got the highest score that
is 100.
41
B. Discussion
After delivering the materials, I measured the students’ achievement
on listening comprehension and put the result in a form that is readily
interpretable. Thus, that taken from the result of the test is very useful to
describe the mastery of the material given. Since the purpose of the study is
to measure students’ proficiency, the interpretation was done in the form
statistical and non-statistical analysis. The analysis of each activity started
from the first cycle up to second cycle, the analysis of interview would be
discussed. Here is the analysis of each cycle.
1. Analysis of the First Step
In the first step, there were three parts that were pre-test, modeling
of the vocabulary, and pronoun of the vocabulary. Here is the analysis of
each part.
2. Analysis of the First Activity (Pre-test)
A pre-test was conducted on the beginning of the research. The
purpose of this test was the check the students’ ability in producing
vocabulary, how to improve and spelling vocabulary.
3. Analysis the second activity
The second activity was called modeling of the vocabulary. There
were 42 students followed the teaching and learning process. In this
activity, the vocabulary was introduced to the students. The duration was
about 15 minutes. In this activity the students were grouped into several
groups consisted of two students based. During the lesson, asked the
42
students to discuss the picture of the vocabulary before I explained it. Then
I explained the meaning and spell of vocabulary. The students and I
discussed the meaning and spell together. I also explained the in writing so
that the students knew the steps and made them easy to remain vocabulary.
The steps in writing were exploring ideas.
4. Analysis the Third Activity
The third activity was called join word to make simple text. In this
activity there were three activities. That was making planning and writing
the first draft, writing the second draft and, writing the final copy.
5. Analysis of the Second Cycle
In the second cycle there were three parts, they were modeling of
the vocabulary, independent spelling of the vocabulary and meaning. Here
is the analysis of each part.
a. Analysis of the First activity
The first activity in the second cycle was called modeling of the
vocabulary. It was followed by 42 students. In this activity, the writer
explained about the spelling of the vocabulary, and make simple
sentence. The students could ask question to me if they had difficulties
meaning of vocabulary.
In this activity, the new vocabulary was introduced to the students.
The vocabulary used here is things around us. The duration was about
20 minutes. In this activity, the students did not work in a group
anymore, but they worked individually. During the lesson, asked the
43
students discussing the meaning of vocabulary once more. Then I
recalled the vocabulary.
b. The Analysis of the drilling technique
The activity of writing the first draft was followed by 28 students. I
asked the students to do the pre-test. The students’ pre-test score is as
follows:
Table 4.1. Pre-Test Score

The mean of pre-test is :
� = ∑�

= 55
a. The Median
The median is the score that splits a distribution in half 50 % of the
scores lie above the median and 50 % of the scores lie below the
median. To find the median, the data must be arranged from the
smallest into the largest score.
If the number of scores is even, the median is halfway between the two
most scores. When the number of scores is odd, the median is in the
middle score. As the number of score is 28, the median must be the
fourteenth (50) summed with fifteenth (55) then is divided by two. Here
is the median of data:

Sum ∑ 1540
45
� = 50 + 552
= 1052
= 52.5
b. The Mode
The mode or modus score is the score that occurs most frequently in a
data distribution. It is determined by tallying up the number of times
each score occurs in a distribution and selecting the score that occurs
most frequently.
Table 4.2. Frequency of pre-test score
No Pre-test score Frequency
1 45 5
2 50 9

6 70 2
∑ 28
From the table above, the mode for pre-test is 50 as it occurs nine times.
c. Standard Deviation
Standard deviation is very important in analyzing statistical data. This is
used to measure the variability of scores in the data. It shows how all of
the scores spread out and thus gives us a further description of the test
scores than the range. The standard deviation is an average of the
46
degree to which a set of scores deviates from the mean. The closer the
spread of scores, the smaller the standard deviation is. The greater the
spread of scores, the larger the deviation is.
The data of pre-test result used to find the standard deviation in
experiment group can be seen in table below.
Table 4.3. Pre-test standard deviation
No Score (Y) F f(Y) y y² fy²
1 45 5 225 -10 100 500

5 65 4 260 +10 100 400
6 70 2 140 +15 225 450
∑ 28 1700
Therefore, the standard deviation for pre-test is :
SDy = �∑fY�N
= �170028
= 7.79
After founding the mean, median and standard deviation, the writer
gave treatments to the students to improve their vocabulary mastery skill
using drilling technique. At first, the students felt some kind of confusion
as it was new for them. Then the writer explained about such technique in a
very simple way as it was easy on its application. As the students felt enjoy,
47
the learning process became easier. And after two weeks treatment, here is
the students’ post-test result:
Table 4.4. Post-test score

48
From the data above, we could get the mean of the score. The mean is:
� = ∑�
�
=2128
28
= 76
If we compare the mean of pre-test that is only 55 the mean of post-test
is 76 It means the students score highly increasing.
The median of the data is the fourteenth (76) summed with fifteenth 76)
then is divided by two. Therefore, the median is:
� =76 + 76
2
=152

= 76
The median increased about 23.5 point as the median pre-test is only
52.5.

∑ 28 472
Therefore, the standard deviation for post-test is :
SD = �∑fX�N
= �47228
= 4.12
The ‘t’ test value of this study can be gained using formula below:
t0 = Mx − MySEMx−My
50
Therefore, we should find the value of SE %& first:
SE Mx = SDx√N − 1 = 4.12√28 − 1
= 4.12√27
= 4.125.2
= 0.792
And the value of SE %y is:
SE %( = SDy√N − 1 = 7.79√28 − 1
= 7.79√27
= 7.795.2
= 1.498
The value of ‘t’ test is:
t0 = Mx − MySEMx−My
= 76 − 550.792 − 1.498 = 210.706
= 29.75
51
From the T-test above, the writer continued to make conclusion with the
result of t-test. From the data, the writer looked for degree of freedom (df)
with the formula df= N-1 = 28 – 1 = 27. In the t-table for df = 27 is 2.77
whereas the result of t-test is 29.75 > 2.76. It can be concluded that there is
a significant improvement of using drilling technique to improve students’
skills on vocabulary mastery of MI Miftahul Huda Suwawal 01 Pakis Aji
Jepara.
6. Non-Statistical Analysis
The next step is to do non statistical analysis. This non statistical
analysis deals with the students’ achievement levels before and after using
drilling technique.The analysis here is based on students’ score in pre-test
and post test. And then the writer put it in table based on Tinambunan’
classification. The classification of pre-test is:
Table 4.7 Tinambunan formula of students’ score in pre-test
No The Percentage of
Correct Answers

4 60 – 74% 11 39% (D) Very Weak Below Average
5 Below 60% 17 61% (E) Fail Insufficient
52
The result shows that 39% of students in level very weak and the rest
61% are fail. And then, the writer compares with the students’ score in
post-test below:
Table 4.8. Tinambunan formula of students’ score in post-test

4 60 – 74% 10 36% (I) Very Weak Below Average
5 Below 60% 0 0% (J) Fail Insufficient
The result shows that 64% students got satisfactory and 36% students
got very weak with no student in level fail. This result shows that
improving students’ skill in vocabulary mastery by using drilling technique
to fourth grade students of MI Miftahul Huda Suwawal 01 Pakis Aji Jepara
in academic year of 2010/2011 is considered to be successful.

CHAPTER V
CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
Vocabulary mastery is the first skill that the children active to study
English. Before they are able to use a language in real communication children
develop their competence from vocabulary to the others. In this last chapter, the
writer will present some conclusions and suggestions based on the study.
A. CONCLUSIONS
Based on the result of the research in the previous chapter, I can conclude
that:
1. It is described that the students have more knowledge about what
vocabulary with drilling technique. They seem know the steps to make a
good writing and it is very useful for them when they tell something.
Therefore they can make a sentence better than before.
2. The teachers seem have more knowledge in teaching vocabulary because
by reading this final project, they will know the steps in writing and how
to give score of the students’. Therefore they can use this technique to
increase the students’ achievement in lesson.
3. It is expected that this research will be useful for someone who will have a
research or final project about teaching vocabulary because in this reseach
there are many steps in conducting research that can be used as references.
4. By conducting this research, I have more knowledge in the field. I knew
how to apply the writing lesson by using many types of texts better than
54
before and I also have experience how to master the class based on the
situation I faced in the class.
B. SUGGESTIONS
Based on the conclusions above, I would like to offer some suggestions
about drilling technique, among:
1. The students’ should learn more about vocabulary in order they can get
more knowledge. It will be better for them to use the steps in speak
English when they speak English in order they can make a good speaking.
If they have many difficulties, they can ask the teacher.
2. It will be better for the teachers to use the rule in lesson, in this case is the
steps in teach when they teach vocabulary in order they can increase the
students’ achievement in study. They also should help their students’ when
their students have difficulties in study.
3. The teacher and the students must work together in teaching and learning
process, especially in vocabulary lesson, they should help each other to
make the teaching vocabulary process successful.
