INTRODUCTION
from the students will be the great reasons for teaching and learning process in the
classroom.
Based on information obtained from the English teacher at Fifth Grade of
SD Islam Raudlatul Amin (IRADA), it was found that most of students in the
classroom have less motivation to learn english. The students often not pay
attention to the teacher and they also not engaged to the class atmosphere, so they
can not following the teaching and learning process well. It caused by the attitude
from the students who always make a noise in the class and they have no attention
to the teachers instruction. This situation make the material that given by the
teacher are not effective. It is difficult for them to understand the material in
English and they feel not confident to speak english in their classroom. The
teacher think that the students who have less motivation in learning english will
affect the teaching and learning process. Because they will disturbing other
student and make the classroom become uncontrolling at that time. So the
learning process not run well and the material that given by the teacher can not
reached well by the students.
Furthermore, the material at elementary school are not difficult, but to hold
the students attention to follow the rule in the class while English learning is not
easy yet. The motivation and the attitude of the students is negative to the material
in english. It is affect their skill in english and make them difficult to improve
their english language both in the class and out class. Eventhough, most of them
can reach the good score in their test, they have no braveness to improve their
english as well as their score. Whereas, the student must mastering the four skill
in english, listening, speaking, writing, and reading. Maybe the approaches that
given by the teacher is not appropriate with the students need. So the students
feel not interested while the english class and they feel not confident to improve
their skill in english.
Some of the student that have good score in english subject being
individualize to the others. So, their friends who are not good in score will be still
in low score and feel can not increasing their score in this subject. This case make
them think that they can not learning english well and they feel that the material
are diffficult for them. When they have any question about the material in english,
most of student feel afraid to ask to the teacher. It make the material are not
transferring well to the students and they can not remember the material they get
after class. It make them have assumption that english are difficult and confusing
them. So this think make them have less motivation to learn english and negative
attitude to improve their skill in english.
This situation should be as a critical think for the teacher to find the
appropriate strategy in teaching english in elementary school. Not only find the
creative strategy but also developing the media that will be use in teaching and
learning english to improve the students motivation. One of the creative strategy
is using modified cooperative Students Achievement Team Division (STAD).
STAD is one of the cooperative learning method for mixed ability grouping
involving team recognition and group responsibility for individual learning.
According to Slavin (1994), the main idea behind STAD is to motivate students to
encourage and help one another master skills presented by the teacher. The reason
for the selection of this strategy is there will bring good interatction among
students, improve positive attitude towards subject, better self-esteem, increased
interperonal skills for the students.
Some previous research and action research have been done this strategy
and conclude the good result in the end. So, this strategy selected by some review
from others research related to STAD to solve the students motivation problem in
the english classroom. According to Rai (2007) STAD is one of the many
strategies in cooperative learning, which helps promote collaboration and selfregulating learning skills. It is very appropriate strategy for the students to
improve their skills by sharing and collaborating with others. But, here will be a
modification that after grouping, the students will ask to study first by their own
way. The research hope that modified cooperative STAD will make the class
become effective and can improve the students motivation in learning english at
Fifth Grade of SD Islam Raudlatul Amin (IRADA).
Division can improve the students motivation in learning English at Fifth Grade
of SD Islam Raudlatul Amin (IRADA)?
1.5 Hypothesis
If the modified cooperative Student Team Achievement Division (STAD)
is applied well, it will improve the students motivation in learning English at
Fifth Grade of SD Islam Raudlatul Amin (IRADA).
