THE EFFECT OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING TECHNIQUES AND SELF-CONFIDENCE ON STUDENTS’ SPEAKING COMPETENCY
Abstract: The
Effect of Cooperative
Learning Techniques and
Self-Confidence on Students’ Speaking
Competency. This study
investigated the effect
of cooperative learning
techniques (Jigsaw II and STAD) on speaking competency viewed from
students’ self-confidence (high and low). ‘Posttest only control group’
design with 2x2 factorial arrangement using Two-Way ANOVA and Tukey
Test was employed.
The second semester
students majoring in
English Education in Mahasaraswati University
were sampled and
involved in the
experiment. The findings
indicated that there was
a significant effect
of cooperative learning
techniques (Jigsaw II
and STAD) on students’ speaking competency. The
students with high-self-confidence speak better after they were treated using
Jigsaw II than
using STAD. However,
no difference was
found when the
low self confidence were treated
using the two techniques. This study provided an empirical evidence of the importance for
taking self-confidence into consideration when
a teacher decided
to implement a new teaching technique in his/her
class.
