Improving Students’ Speaking Skill Using Multimodal Text On Phase E At SMAN 3 Kediri

Abstract

Multimodal text serves as an illustration of the various modes of learning and teaching. Multimodal text involves the utilization of different media, such as audio, visual, and kinesthetic, to enhance the learning process. Common examples of multimodal text in education include online learning platforms, YouTube, Google Classroom, Google Meet, Zoom, TikTok, and the emerging trend of artificial intelligence (AI). Among the four language skills, speaking is considered the most significant for effective communication in a global context. This study aims to examine and compare students' speaking skills using multimodal text, as well as to identify the factors influencing the development of speaking skills through multimodal text activities. Employing a quantitative approach, this research seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of the use of multimodal text to enhance students' speaking skills in phase E. The findings of this study demonstrate the effectiveness of utilizing multimodal text to enhance students' speaking abilities. This media not only enhances the learning experience but also positively impacts students' motivation, engagement, and comprehension. Therefore, integrating multimodal text in language learning is recommended to support the holistic development of students' speaking skills.
