Abstract

This study aims to determine students' learning motivation in studying English. The motivation of this research is divided into intrinsic and extrinsic motivations. This study uses quantitative descriptive research. The research population is class 2A and 2B. The sample of this research is class 2B consisting of 23 students, with the instruments of observation, questionnaire, interview, and documentation. In conclusion, Students' Learning Motivation in Studying English at SMP Al-Qur'an Putra Bahari Kota Ternate in class 2B is more influenced by extrinsic motivation (271). Based on the results of the research, generally, the students of SMP Al-Qur'an Putra Bahari Kota Ternate do not have an awareness of the learning experience so the intrinsic motivation of these students is low, as we know that in general English learners are students who are in the category of instrumental motivation. Therefore, the extrinsic factor is more dominant to spur students' enthusiasm for learning while integrative motivation is not comparable to instrumental motivation. This motivation is the reason why students especially students of SMP Al-Quran Putra Bahari Kota Ternate have an intrinsic motivation that is not comparable to extrinsic motivation.

Abstract

Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) is an instructional approach that prioritizes the development of communication skills, utilizing language in contexts relevant to daily activities. However, its application, particularly in English speaking lessons, presents various challenges and difficulties for students. The primary objective of this study was to explore students' perceptions and attitudes toward the use of CLT in improving English speaking skill. This research adopted a descriptive quantitative design, with participants consisted of 55 third-semester students from the English Education Study Program at Universitas Khairun. Data were gathered through a Google Form survey containing a Likert scale-based questionnaire with 20 items. The data were subsequently analyzed by using mean scores and percentage distributions. The findings revealed that students generally held a positive view of CLT in English speaking instruction, as evidenced by an overall mean score of 3.79, corresponding to a "high" level of agreement, with 75.85% of respondents in the "agree" category. CLT was found to boost students' confidence in speaking English. Furthermore, students exhibited a positive attitude toward CLT, with an average attitude score of 3.7, indicating a "high" level of agreement, and 74% agreeing with the approach. This positive response is attributed to the variety, enjoyment, and engaging of the activities included in CLT. However, an area for improvement identified in the study is the alignment of English speaking lesson materials with the students' proficiency levels to ensure more effective learning outcomes.
