THE EFFECT OF WATCHING ENGLISH MOVIES ON THE ACCENT OF STUDENTS' SPEAKING SKILL
Abstract
In this digital era, many new learning media can be used to improve students' abilities or make learning more effective. One of them is using movies as a medium to improve students' skills, such as speaking skills. In speaking, the use or mastery of accents is also essential. The researchers conducted this study intending to find out the effect of watching English movies on students' speaking accents. Previously, the analysis of accents influenced by watching English films has never been analyzed. The researchers used descriptive qualitative research method to find out the results of the data collected by open questionnaire. The researchers chose the descriptive qualitative research method to describe the conditions observed in the field, specifically, transparently, and deeply. Forty-two respondents filled out a questionnaire consisting of 12 open-ended questions related to the effect of watching English movies on students' accent speaking ability. The result showed that 49% of respondents agreed that watching English movies affects students' accent speaking ability, and 28.8% strongly agreed. From these answers and based on other supporting questions, the researchers found the influence of English movies on students' accent speaking ability. This study concludes that students realize that they can improve their speaking ability with English movies. This study implies that teachers can use movies as learning media to provide accent improvement in students' speaking ability.
