To speak and communicate, people
need language as a tool
and to speak using language someone need to have vocabulary. Meanwhile, if someone want to speak
fluently, they need to
master much vocabulary to assist them speaking in any situation. In an extracurricular
activity of Indonusa Polytechnic called IEC standing for Indonusa English Club,
the members learn on speaking skill more focus than other skills. Apparently
the members of IEC often stop and get stuck in their speaking class, need a
period or seconds to continue speaking or even cannot continue their speaking.
Based on the above problems, the researcher conducted action research by using
Flashcards.
The research method used in this study is classroom
action research. The subject of te study are the 20 students of Indonusa
English Club in the second semester of academic year 2016-2017. There were two
cycles which in every cycle consist of planning, acting, observing, and
reflecting. The data of the study were collected by using qualitative and
quantitative data collection techniques.
The result of the studyreveals that the use of Flashcards
can enhance the students’ speaking skill through vocabulary mastery, the
students speak more fluent because they easily learned the vocabulary and they
are not lack of vocabulary. It can be seen from the result of mean score of the
pre-test in the first cycle which improve from 62 to 68.5 in the post test and
63.6 in the pre-test to 70.8 in the post test of cycle two.
