Teaching speaking using simulation technique : a pre experiment study at the third years of islamic junior high school arrasyid 2 warungmenteng cijeruk bogor

I will outline the rationale and unique benefits of simulations and describe one such language assessment model designed at an Islamic Junior High School Bogor to test English Speaking ability. I will then report on the results of a pre-test and post-test to the participants to evaluate (a) the usefulness of the simulation and (b) the assessment techniques in providing diagnostic feedback for improvement, concluding with a short discussion of results of this research. The writer carried out three steps. The first step was the pre-test. The second step was the action. The action consisted of two cycles. The difference between these cycles was on topic of material used. Each cycle consisted of teaching and learning process and a test. The last steps were the post-test.
