Abstract
Listening is one of four skills that has to be mastered to enhance language mastery. Listening means recognizing and understanding what others say. It is more than just hearing; it involves figuring out the sound's meaning and message. Listening skill is important in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL), forming the foundation for language learning and growth. Students can improve their overall language skills by concentrating on understanding spoken language and using various strategies to improve listening skill and communicate more effectively in English. Podcasts are one of the media that helps students practice listening skill. Podcasts are audio or video files published online, typically in MP3 or MP4 format. The availability of podcasts on the internet has given language teachers a valuable resource for teaching listening skill.
This research aims to find out whether there is a significant effect of using podcasts on the eleventh-grade students’ listening skill or not. Furthermore, the significance of the research was expected to be useful information for English teachers, especially in teaching listening. In addition, the research was expected to benefit eleventh-grade students at SMAN 1 Sambit by assisting them in improving their listening through the use of podcasts.
This research used a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental design. The data collection instruments employed were pre-test and post-test tests aimed at evaluating students' listening skill. The research population comprised eleventh-grade students at SMAN 1 Sambit during the academic year 2023/2024. Cluster random sampling was employed, with class XI MIPA 2 and XI MIPA 3 selected as the sample groups. Class XI MIPA 2 was an experimental class, which consisted of 29 students, while Class XI MIPA 3 was the control class, which consisted of 29 students. The research used the Independent sample t-test formula to analyze the data.
The results of this research proved that there is a significant effect on the use of podcasts as a media for teaching listening. The effect is seen in the result of the t-test. The t-test showed that t0 was 3.911 and ttable was 1.673. Thus, the Sig. (2-tailed) was lower than 0.05. Therefore, the H0 is rejected, and the H1 is accepted. So, it can be concluded that using podcasts significantly affected eleventh-grade students' listening skill at SMAN 1 Sambit.
