The research entitled “Process based Approach towards Students’ English Paragraph Writing Ability” aims to discover whether or not Process based Approach is effective or not towards students’ English paragraph writing ability. This was a queasy-experimental research with pretest-posttest control group design. The population of the study was the fourth semester students of Writing subject of English Department at Language and Art Education Faculty of IKIP Mataram in the academic year of 2016/2017. Samples of the study were IV-E and IV-F taken through cluster random sampling technique. To determine the experimental and control class, lottery was used. Instrument of the research was paragraph writing test. Techniques of analyzing data were descriptive and inferential statistic analysis. Data of samples were in normal distribution since the value of sig (081) was higher than the value of  alpha (0.05). Data of samples were also homogeneous as the value of sig (012) was higher than the value of alpha (0.05). Based on the result of t-test of two-tailed independent samples, it was found that the value of sig (196) was lower than the value of alpha at the level of significance (0.05). It means that Process based Approach was not effective towards students’ English paragraph writing ability.

  This study aimed to investigate the effect of anonymous peer assessment on students’ writing ability. Quantitative approach was used in this study. Post-test only control group design was the design used in this experimental study. The post-test only control group design was designed to discover the purpose of this study which was to investigate the significant effect on writing ability between students who obtain feedback from anonymous peer assessment and students who obtain feedback from conventional assessment. The study was conducted at SMK PGRI 1 Singaraja. The eleventh grade students in Academic Year 2017/2018 were chosen as the population. The samples were 44 students from XI AP and XI UPW. The instruments used in this study were lesson plan, anonymous peer checklist, writing scoring rubric, and writing test. Writing scoring rubric and writing test were used to obtain the data through post-test while lesson plan and anonymous peer assessment were used during the treatment. The data then was analyzed by using SPSS 16. The results of the analysis show that (1) the mean score of the experimental group was 77.55 while the mean score of the control group was 68.77. (2) The t-observe was 3.892 and it exceeded the t-critical value which was 2.018. Therefore, based on the aforementioned results, it can be concluded that there was a significant difference on writing ability between the eleventh grade students who obtained feedback from anonymous peer assessment and those who obtained feedback from conventional assessment at SMK PGRI 1 Singaraja in academic year 2017/2018.

Vocabulary is something that very important in learning English.  Relating to vocabulary, students find that it is difficult to recognize the meaning and written form. Further, there are difficulties in reading English texts. The animation video is an interested medium which expected to help and develop students’ vocabulary achievement. The research methodology in this research is quantitative, true experimental. Further, the research design is post-test only control group design. The sampling technique applied is Cluster Random Sampling, where the samples are randomly taken from the population. There are 60 samples of students and the sample classes are divided into two classes, Experimental and Control classes. Each class with 30 students. The instrument used to collect the vocabulary achievement in form of an objective test, consisting of 30 questions. The result of data are analyzed using t–test, the researcher found that Tobserved = 13,355 is higher than Ttable = 2.000 and significant (2-tailed) 0.00 than < (lower) than Alpha 0.05 that means Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. Based on the result, it can be concluded that there is a significant effect of using Animation Video on Ten-Grade Students’ Vocabulary Achievement at MAN 18 JAKARTA.

This study is an experimental aims to finding out the effect of problem based learning through experimental methods on student’s physics science process skills of SMA Negeri 1 Selong academic year 2014/2015. The design of this study used pretest-posttest control group design, while the sampling technique used cluster random sampling. The population of this study is students of grade X Science Program SMA Negeri 1 Selong, while the samples are the students of class X 1 (experimental group) and class X 4 (control group). The instrument of this study is the science process skills test. The result data was analyzed by t-test pooled variant two tails. Obtain values thint = 5.38, ttable = 1.99 at the significance level of 5%. Because - ttable < thint > + ttable, then Ho will be rejected and Ha will be accepted which indicates that there is significant the effect of problem based learning through the experimental method on physics science process skills of students of SMA Negeri 1 Selong academic year 2014/2015.

The aim of this research is to know the effect of using Predict Observe Explain (POE) method toward students’ achievement in Physics. This is an experimental research by using experimental group and control group. The research design was Post-test Only Control Group Design. The population of this research was the students of class VII SMPN 1 Lembar academic year 2015/2016. The sampling technique was Cluster Random Sampling in which class VII 2 as the control group and class VII 3 as the experimental group. Both of the groups were given a pre-test before the treatment to know the homogeneity of the groups. The instrument used is an objective test in form of multiple choices. The finding showed that the mean of the posttest in experimental group was 70 and the control group was 60.67, in which both of them were distributed normal and homogeneous. The post-test result was analyzed by using t-test (t-test polled variants) in which the value of the was 2.473 and the  was 2.015 with dk=46 and the significant level was 5%. It showed that the was accepted and was rejected. Therefore, it can be concluded that Predict Observe Explain (POE) Method gave significant effect to the students’ achievement in Physics at Class VII SMPN 1 Lembar Academic year 2015/2016.

This study aimed at investigating whether or not there was any significant effect on students’ listening competency who were taught by dictogloss strategy and those who were taught by conventional strategy. The population of this study was the tenth grade students in SMA N 1 Sukasada. Two classes were taken as samples in this study using cluster random sampling technique. They were assigned as experimental group and control group by lottery. To obtain the required data, the two groups were given different treatments. The experimental group was taught by using dictogloss strategy, meanwhile the control group was taught by using conventional strategy (cloze listening strategy). To collect the data the instruments used in this study were the teaching scenario and post-test in the form of listening test. The obtained data were then analyzed descriptively and inferentially. The result of inferential statistics showed that the t-observed exceeded the t-critical value. Thus, the null hypothesis was rejected, which means there was significant effect on students’ listening competency who were taught by dictogloss strategy and those who were taught by conventional strategy.

This study aims to discover the effect of applying sentence Combining Technique on students’ achievement in writing descriptive text. It was conducted by using experimental research design. The population of this research was the eight (VIII) grade students of SMP Swasta Prayatna Medan with eight parallel classes. The samples of the research were 20% of the totaling number of students divided into two groups, experimental and control group which were chosen by using random sampling technique. Seventy two students were taken as the samples. The experimental group was taught by using Sentence Combining Technique, while the control group was taught by using conventional teaching. The instrument for collecting the data was a writing test. Pearson Product Moment formula was applied to obtain the reliability of the test. Based on the calculation, it shows that the reliability of the test was 0.86 categorized as high reliability. Then, after analyzing the data, it was found that the value of tobserved was 5.57 with the degree of freedom (df)=70 at the level of significance (α = 0.05). It means that tobserved is higher than ttable (5.57 > 1.67). The result of this study shows that Sentence Combining Technique has a significant effect on students’ achievement in writing descriptive text.
