The try out was conducted to measure validity and reliability. Andthe two ways ANOVA was conducted to test the hypotheses, two –way analysis ofvariance with F-test at the 5% (0.05) level of significance. The result of this studyrevealed that the use of discovery learning was effective to the extroverted studentsthan the introverted students. In line with it, the finding indicates that the use of directinstruction was also effective to introverted students than the extroverted students. Inother words, the result of the used of discovery learning had a bigger influence to theextroverted students rather than introverted students.
