THE USE OF SPIN THE WHEEL STRATEGY FOR IMPROVING THE ABILITY TO USE CONDITIONAL SENTENCES
Abstract
THE USE OF SPIN THE WHEEL STRATEGY FOR IMPROVING THE ABILITY TO USE CONDITIONAL SENTENCES
The purposes of this research were (1) to describe the effectiveness of using spin the Wheel to improve the ability of 20 Navy Personnel in Hera Base using conditional sentences and (2) to identify the significant differences between before and after the implementation of teaching conditional sentences by using the spin the wheel. The method that was used to conduct this research was Classroom Action Research, and it comprised four stages such as action, planning, observation, and reflection. There were administered two types of tests namely; Pre-test and Post-Test. A pre-test was given before the treatment and a Post-test was given after the implementation of Spin the Wheel as the strategy to improve the ability to use conditional sentences to 20 sailors on the Naval Component in Hera Base. The test items were 40 numbers of multiple-choice conditional sentences. The result of the research showed that Spin the Wheel is one of the innovative strategies that could improve the sailors’ ability to use conditional sentences due to the mean score of the post-test was 8.5 was higher than the mean score of the pre-test was 4.8. There were some significant differences between before and after the implementation of the use of Spin the Wheel as the strategy to improve the ability to use Conditional Sentences to 20 sailors on the Naval Component in Hera Base Dili, Timor Leste in the year 2023. It suggested that sailors need to improve their accuracy in using conditional sentences through the learning process of English as a foreign language by using Spin the Wheel. Teachers should create and contextualize the teaching material based on the context through Spin the Wheel as a strategy that can facilitate the learners to learn fast because it promotes collaboration and motivates learners to learn more.
