Abstract

The objectives of the study were to find out the implementation of Webquest in Blended Learning and to know the improvement of students’ speaking skills by using Webquest in Blended Learning for the eleventh grade students of MAN Salatiga in the academic year of 2018/2019. The numbers of subject of the research were 21 students. The methodology of research was classroom action research. The techniques of collecting data were pre-test and post-test (oral test) to find out the students’ skills by recording technique to find out the students’ pronunciation, intonation, fluency, grammar and vocabulary. The second technique of collecting data was observation to find out the students’, teachers’ activities, and the utilization of Webquest. The third technique of collecting data was field note to record all the detail activities while doing teaching and learning process in the classroom from the beginning until the end of the teaching learning process. The writer finds that there was a significant improvement on students’ speaking skills after Webquest was implemented as media in Blended Learning in cycle I and cycle II. The result of pre-test cycle I was 52.37% of the students who reached the passing grade. The total presentation of the students who did not reach the passing grade in the post-test cycle I was 19.04%. T-test in the cycle I was 4.402 while t-table was 2.086 for df 20 and the significance 5%. Thus the sig. 2 (tailed) value < 0.05 and T-test was bigger than T-table. Thus, action hypothesis was accepted. Meanwhile, in pre-test cycle II there were 16 students who could pass the passing grade, and the presentation was 76.18%. Meanwhile, there were 23.80% who did not reach the passing grade. T-test in the cycle II was 9.954 while T-table showed 2.086 for df 20 and the significance 5%. The sig. 2 (tailed) value < 0.05 and T-test was bigger than T-table. Thus, action hypothesis was accepted. The target presentation of the passing grade had been achieved. The implementation of Webquest as media in Blended Learning was successful to improve students’ speaking skills.
