Two experiments investigated the information conveyed by intonation from speaker to listener. A multiple-choice test was devised to test the ability of 48 adults to recognize and label intonation when it was separated from all other meaning. Nine intonation contours whose labels were most agreed upon by adults were each matched with two English sentences (one with appropriate and one with inappropriate intonation and semantic content) to make a matching-test for children. The matching-test was tape-recorded and given to children in the first, third, and fifth grades (32 subjects in each grade). The first-grade children matched the intonations with significantly greater agreement than chance; but they agreed upon significantly fewer sentences than either the third or fifth graders. Some intonation contours were matched with significantly greater frequency than others. The performance of the girls was better than that of the boys on an impatient question and a simple command which indicates that there was a significant interaction between sex and intonation.

Adult subjects were given concrete and abstract textbook passages to study by using either an imaginai or verbal strategy. Two days later, they were given a multiple-choice test and a production test of comprehension. The verbal strategy produced better comprehension than the imaginai strategy; concrete passages were comprehended better than abstract passages, but only according to the production test; and strategy and concreteness did not interact. Differences between these results and results obtained in imagery research on word lists are discussed, and caution is advised before generalizing the word research to meaningful prose learning by adults

The background of conducting this research is the need to find out a method of teaching vocabulary that can be integrated into the four main skills, while focused still on students’ vocabulary. The objective of the research is to find out whether there is a significant effect of  ostensive approach on students’ vocabulary at the first grade of SMP Negeri 10 Kendari. This research is focused on the effect of ostensive approach based on students’ vocabulary achievement. The  design  of  the  study  was  Quasi experimental  design  which  two  group  in  given pretest and posttest. The instrument of this study was vocabulary test that consisted of 40 numbers and multiple- choice test consists of 20 items and there are 20 items of matching test. The population of this study  was all  the first  grade  students’  of  SMP  Negeri 10 Kendari  who  were registered in academic year 2015/2016 with the total number of students is 223. The researcher chooses class VII5 as experimental class  and  VII6  as control class and both of class consist of 30  students.  The researcher collected the data by giving pretest in two classes to know students’ prior knowledge, giving treatment which the researcher conducted teaching and learning process by using  ostensive approach in experimental class and using traditional approach in control class, then giving posttest to know the differences effect of the two approach toward the improving of students’ vocabulary achievement after treatment. The data collected analyzed by using SPSS 16 for windows in form independent-sample t test and the result of the analysis shows that there were significant differences between students who taught by ostensive approach and students who taught by traditional approach. Its’ proved by the result, the hypothesis testing show the value of probability (sig. 2 tailed) 0.004 lower than alpha value (0.05). It means that Ho was rejected and H1  totally accepted. Therefore, mean score experiment class was higher than control class (79.5000 > 69.4667). The mean score of experiment class was included in high criteria whereas the mean score of control class was included in moderate criteria.  It can be concluded that there is a significant effect of using ostensive approach on improving students’ vocabulary achievement at the first grade of SMPN 10 Kendari.  Keywords: Ostensive Approach, effect, vocabulary achievement.

This study aims to develop a three tier multiple choice test instrument on chemical equilibrium material to identify misconceptions in students. The development model used by Borg and Gall (1983): (1) research and data collection, (2) planning, (3) developing product drafts, (4) conducting initial field trials, (5) making revisions to initial products; (6) conducting limited field tests, (7) product improvement. This research was conducted with 60 respondents. Validation uses the Aiken method with 5 expert validators. The conclusion is that the three tier multiple choice test instrument developed was declared to be feasible and met the criteria as a good problem with the average aiken validity of 0.87. The instrument was declared feasible in terms of the reliability of the test 0.806 included in the high category, has a distinguishing power of 0.351 so that it was categorized as good. Difficulty level found 20% categorized as easy problems, 71.11% categorized as moderate and 8.89% categorized as difficult. Based on the deception index, it was concluded that the deception mostly worked better than the answer key and the deception value mostly more than 5% was chosen so that it was declared effective. Three Tier Multiple Choice Test instrument seen from the practicality included in good categories with a percentage of 78.28%.
