THE IMPACT OF USING ANIMATION VIDEO ON STUDENTS' SPEAKING ABILITY AT SMAN 1 PANGKAH

Abstract

This study aims to find out the effect of animated video on students' speaking ability at SMAN 1 Pangkah and to find out students' responses to the use of animated video in the teaching and learning process of speaking. A quantitative approach was employed, utilizing a quasi-experimental research design with a post-test only model. The sample consisted of 72 grade XI students from SMAN 1 Pangkah in the 2023/2024 academic year. Data were gathered using post-tests and questionnaires. Analysis of the post-test results revealed that the experimental group had an average score of 73.67, while the control group averaged 65.89. A t-test comparison between the two groups showed a significance value (2-tailed) of 0.000, which is less than 0.05, indicating a significant difference in speaking ability between the groups after using animated videos. This suggests that animated videos positively affect students' speaking ability. Additionally, questionnaire responses showed that students were more engaged and interested in using animated videos to enhance their speaking ability.
