The Effect of Using Dictogloss on Students’ Listening Comprehension Achievement

Abstract

Listening is one of the most important skills which should be had by students of English as foreign language. Listening has a vital part in learning foreign language especially in term of communication because many of students’ activities are used to listen. However, students’ listening comprehension has not met good result yet. This study was conducted to find out the impact of using dictogloss in improving students’ listening comprehension achievement. The design of this study was a quasi-experimental study. By using purposive sampling, the samples were taken from the second grade students of SMA Negeri 1 Pandeglang. The experimental class was taught by using dictogloss, while the control class was taught without using dictogloss. Test was used as the primary instrument in collecting the data. The final mean scores gained from both classes were analyzed by using t-test with significance level of α = 0.05. It was found that the mean score of experimental class was 67.6, while the control class was 59.96. The statistical computation of gained score revealed that the t-value was 2.53, and the t-table at α = 0.05 is 1.668. This data show that the gained t-value is greater than t-table. It means that there was a significance difference of two mean scores gained. Therefore, it can be concluded that dictogloss brings positive influence to students’ listening comprehension achievement, and it can be an alternative technique to be used in teaching listening in the classroom.

“…The results of the current study are consistent with other studies that revealed the efficacy of deploying dictogloss in enhancing some EFL learners' skills (Aminatun, Muliyah & Haryanti, 2021 Khorrami ,2020;Kurtaj, 2021;Putri ,2020;Rashtchi, 2020;Zinkgraf & Verdú ,2021;Zohrabi & Tahmasebi ,2020).…”

“…The dictogloss technique may be used with a variety of texts, such as brief snippets from newspapers, academic literature, narratives, or texts developed specifically by teachers for the purpose of facilitating particular learning outcomes (Syafiq, 2021;Rangkuti, 2021) In recent years, an expanding body of research has grown, focusing on investigating the effect of the dictogloss technique on multiple aspects of EFL instruction. These aspects include skills, i.e., listening (Tsauri, 2021;Aminatun, 2021), speaking skills (Rahayu, 2020;Rashtchi, 2020), writing skills (Sugondo, 2021), and other aspects, particularly grammar (Kurtaj, 2021), self-learning (Lim, 2021), motivation ( 2021), and perceptions ( Kim & Cha, 2021) One main common ground among aspects of the dictogloss technique and web-based learning is that the learning process encompasses more than a passive reception of information from the teacher. It involves active engagement by students through activities such as watching, demonstrating, and other associated tasks.…”

Starting from listening to the music and seeing the lyrics, students will be able to use their memory to learn English.…”
