Abstract

Abstract In EFL learning, among all the skills: listening, reading, and writing, speaking seems to be one of the most important skills. However, to master speaking is not an easy thing. And as a matter of fact, there are still many learners who have learned English for some years have not been able to speak fluently. Brown (2007) states that the difficulties the learners find in speaking are due to the fact that they have to focus on forms and function of the language. Further, Ellis (1994) also states that speaking has two sequential phases: planning and execution. Planning is done when speakers think of what utterance to produce to impact the listeners and execution is the realization of planning into words, phrases and sentences. To cope with the difficulties in speaking and to speak fluently, learners need to understand well about Communication Strategies. Thus, this paper tries to share ideas on the importance of the use of Communication Strategies to improve EFL learners’ speaking skill.  It includes the nature of speaking, learners’ proficiency, communicative competence, communication strategies, and the research supports on Communication strategies. Strategi Komunikasi dalam Bercakap pada Pembelajar Bahasa Inggris sebagai Bahasa Asing. Dalam pembelajaran bahasa Inggris sebagai bahasa asing, diantara semua keterampilan menyimak, membaca, menulis, dan bercakap; kemampuan bercakap merupakan salah satu kemampuan yang terpenting. Namun demikian, bukan hal yang mudah untuk menguasai kemampuan ini. Beberapa fakta memperlihatkan bahwa banyak pembelajar bahasa Inggris yang telah belajar selama beberapa tahun namun belum dapat bercakap lancar. Brown (2007) menyatakan bahwa kesulitan yang ditemukan oleh pembelajar dalam bercakap adalah dimana mereka harus fokus pada bentuk dan fungsi bahasa. Lebih lanjut, Ellis (1994) juga mengemukakan bahwa terdapat dua langkah berkelanjutan dalam bercakap, yaitu perencanaan dan eksekusi. Perencanaan dilakukan saat pembicara berpikir ujaran apa yang harus diucapkan untuk memberikan dampak pada pendengar, dan eksekusi adalah realisasi perencanaan dalam kata-kata, frase dan kalimat. Untuk mengatasi kesulitan dalam bercakap lancar, pembelajar harus memahami tentang strategi komunikasi. Olehkarenanya, tulisan ini mencoba untuk berbagi ide tentang pentingnya penggunaan Strategi Komunikasi untuk meningkatkan keterampilan berbicara pembelajar bahasa Inggris sebagai bahasa asing. Strategi ini termasuk sifat berbicara, kemampuan peserta didik, kompetensi komunikatif, strategi komunikasi.

Abstract

AbstractLearning autonomy is one of the important factors that can help the learners to meet the learning goal. However, some learners are not enthusiastic to learn autonomously, they always need a teacher to help them. They sometimes just learn when the teacher asked them to do during the learning process, when they find some difficulties; they just give up and feel less confidence to solve it. This negative aptitude is caused by the students’ mindset in language learning. According to Carol Dweeck, fixed mindset students believe their basic abilities, their intelligence, their talents, are just fixed trait while growth mindset students understand that their talents and abilities can be developed through effort, good teaching and persistence. It indicates that, the fixed mindset learners seemingly have a problem with their mindset which leads them to be less motivated in language learning.  AbstrakHubungan antara Pola Pikir Pembelajar dan Pembelajaran Bahasa secara Autonomi (LLH). Belajar otonomi adalah salah satu faktor penting yang dapat membantu para peserta didik untuk memenuhi tujuan pembelajaran. Namun, beberapa peserta didik tidak bersemangat untuk belajar secara otonom, mereka selalu membutuhkan guru untuk membantu mereka. Mereka kadang-kadang hanya belajar ketika guru meminta mereka untuk melakukan selama proses pembelajaran, ketika mereka menemukan beberapa kesulitan; mereka hanya menyerah dan merasa kurang percaya diri untuk menyelesaikannya. Bakat negatif ini disebabkan oleh pola pikir siswa dalam belajar bahasa. Menurut Carol Dweeck, tetap pola pikir siswa percaya kemampuan dasar, kecerdasan mereka, bakat mereka, hanya tetap sifat sementara pertumbuhan pola pikir siswa memahami bahwa bakat dan kemampuan dapat dikembangkan melalui usaha, pengajaran yang baik dan ketekunan. Ini menunjukkan bahwa, peserta didik pola pikir tetap tampaknya memiliki masalah dengan pola-pikir mereka yang membawa mereka menjadi kurang termotivasi dalam belajar bahasa.
