Abstract

ABSTRACT Pronunciation is one of the important things to establish communication because if the pronunciation of a word is not appropriate, it can change the meaning of the word itself. A word can have meaning if there are qualified vowels and consonants. The pronunciation of vowel sounds in English is rarely or never learned by students in class, as a result students have difficulty in understanding the pronunciation of vowel sounds in English so that sometimes students experience errors in the pronunciation of a word, such as the [ʌ] sound in the word "But". This word should be pronounced /bʌt/, but students pronounce it with a "But" [using the vowel sound "u" in Indonesian]. Another problem found in the learning process is the lack of use of media to support learning, so students feel bored and reluctant to learn. Therefore, the researcher used color vowel chart media to help students learn pronunciation in English vowels. The purpose of the study was to determine whether there was a significant influence of using color vowel chart media toward students' pronunciation in English vowel at the first semester of the eighth grade of SMPN 19 Bandar Lampung in the academic year of 2023/2024. In this study, the design used was quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test. The population of this study was grade VIII students at SMPN 19 Bandar Lampung and the samples taken were two classes. Color vowel chart are applied to the experimental class and pictures to the control class. To collect the data, the researcher tested the instrument by reading several paragraphs of simple and short fable narrative text. After collecting the data, the researcher analyzed it by using two raters to assess the students and utilized SPSS in statistical calculations. From the results of the study, it was concluded that the data was the result of normal and homogeneous data so the hypothesis test used a parametric test, namely the independent sample t-test. Based on the analysis of data calculations in hypothesis testing, a significant effect can be seen in the dependent sample t-test table where Sig. (2- tailed) the same variant is 0.047 < 0.05, meaning Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted that color vowel chart media can have a positive and better influence on students' pronunciation. Key word: Color Vowel Chart, Experimental Research, Vowel of English Pronunciation
