ABSTRACT Thesis English Language Education. Graduate Program of State University of Malang. Advisors (I) Drs. Fachrurrazy MA. Ph.D (II) Prof. Utami Widiati M.A. Ph.D. Key words video teaching media speaking skill. The teaching of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) speaking is necessary for university students to have basic skills of oral communication. Using teaching media in the teaching of EFL speaking might be beneficial to help students improve their speaking skills. As teaching media video can offer audio and visual model of target language as complete stimuli. The aim of this research was to investigate the use of video as teaching media to improve the speaking skill of the fourth semester students of IAIN Cirebon. Based on the data of preliminary study it was found that the students encountered many problems in their speaking class such as the students had low motivation and reticence to speak poor grammar and vocabulary and had some errors in pronunciation. With regard to the problem this classroom action research was conducted to solve those problems occurring in the speaking class. This research was a collaborative action research in which a collaborator assisted the researcher to collect the data using speaking scoring rubric questionnaire and field notes. This research was conducted in two cycles focusing on the improvement of the students speaking performance and their positive attitude to the implementation of the use of video as teaching media in the speaking class. After the implementation of the use of video as teaching media in the speaking class for two cycles it revealed that the use of video could improve the students speaking performance and give them positive attitude to the implementation activities. The findings showed that the average score of the students speaking performance could achieve 81.54 from the determined score 75. In addition it was also found that 82.22 % of the students had positive attitude to the implementation of the use of video in the speaking class. The implementation of the use of video as teaching media in speaking class can cover a procedure of three main phases The first phase is pre-viewing (1) eliciting the target vocabulary to be used in the video and writing them down on the board (2) elaborating the target vocabulary with the target expressions used of the video (3) telling the students on what they are going to study about and setting up the classroom so that they will be ready to watch video. The second phase is whilst-viewing (1) assigning the students to watch the video (without the sound) and asking the students to predict things (place actions expressions) (2) playing the video (with the sound) and letting students check their own prediction (3) giving students three chances to watch the video with sound (4) having students do rehearsal focusing on vocabulary pronunciation and expressions used in the video. The third phase is post-viewing (1) providing another dialog/conversation and asking the students to identify typical expressions relevant to the topic (2) assigning the students to act out or doing role play with similar topic of the video in pairs or group (3) giving the feedback and corrections from the students performances. Based on the findings it is concluded that the use of video as teaching media can be one of the solutions to improve not only the students speaking skills but also the their positive attitude in the teaching of speaking. Therefore English teachers are suggested to use the video as teaching media to teach their students in speaking class and it is also possible to teach other language skills or components. The limitation of this research was about the kind of video. Since in this research the researcher used the instructional video for other researchers are suggested to use other kinds of videos which are not used for instructional objectives.
