The researcher had carried out research during the pandemic, the number of students was limited by the school. The research employed true experimental and need pre-test and post-test to both experimental class and control class. The population of this research is students in the eleventh grade of Man 1 Palu. The students were selected randomly. They are 20 students of class XI MIA 1 as the experiment class and XI MIA 4 as a control class. The research analysed the data statistically data collection. The result of data analysis shows that the experimental class (86) is higher than the mean score of the control class (69). The deviation score of experimental class (8.75) is higher than of the control class (5.37). So, the result of t-counted (1.644) which is higher than t-table (0.081). in analyzing the data, the researcher used 0.05 level of significance and the degree of freedom (df=10+10-2) it means that the hypothesis of the research was accepted.

This study aims to investigate the improvement of speaking ability through debate in the classroom and to investigate the students’s response toward the use of debate in teaching speaking at SMAN 3 kota Bima in academic year 2017/2018. In this study adopted experimental research design with method of collecting data used test and questionnaire, while technique for analysing data in this study based on quantities through data gained in the t-test formula. After analysing the data. It found the mean score of post-test by experimental research was higher than mean score of post-test by control research. Deviation score of post-test experimental class is 12 and control class is 5,93 and the square of deviation score of experimental class ≥ the square of deviation score of control class (1509 ≥ 287,87). It indicates that the treatment was succesful, more over significance value of the t-test also was higher than of the t-table (3,27 ≥ 2,021 = 95% and 3,27 ≥ 2,704 = 99%). The level of significance is 0,05% and 0,01% with degree of freedom (df) 58. It’s mean that Ha is accepted and Ho is refused. Not only research the treatment progress in experimental class and t-test in this study but also more response in using debate method in the classroom through questionnaire which have significant result 82,67% by respondents.

The objective of the research was to find out whether or not Think-Pair-Share Strategy develops the students’ reading comprehension. The researcher applied quasi-experimental with the form of pre-test and post-test control group design and took the second year students of senior high school as the population. The researcher employed cluster random sampling consists of 60 students. The data were collected through pre-test and post-test in form of reading test. To find out whether or not Think-Pair-Share strategy develops the students’ reading comprehension, the researcher used t-test analysis. The result of the data analysis showed that the value of t-counted (5.747) was greater than the value of the t-table (2.002) at the level of significance (a = 0.05) and the degree of freedom df = 58 which meant that the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected and the alternative hypothesis (H1) was accepted. Based on the result of data analysis, the mean score of students’ post-test (84.44) was greater than the mean score of students’ pre-test (63.11). Based on the finding and discussion, the researcher concludes that Think-Pair-Share strategy is effective and gives positive effect to the students’ reading comprehension achievement.

This research aimes to investigate the significant effect of applying the jigsaw II learning method at the second-grade of MAS Nida’ul Khairaat Pombewe. The research employed quasi and need pre-test and post-test. The population of this research was all students of the second grade of MAS Nida’ul Khairaat Pombewe. The sample was selected by using quota sampling technique. The samples were 20  students of IPS class as the controlled class and Agama class as the experimental class. The researcher analyzed the data statistically. The mean score of the experimental class was (67.05), it was higher than the mean score of the control class (45). The result of t-counted (2.327) which was higher than the t-table (2.153). The researcher used the 0.05 level of significance and the degree of freedom (df= 10 + 10 – 2). This research has two hypotheses, which were  : there is no improvement of the students’ reading comprehension through the Jigsaw II learning method at the second grade of MAS Nida’ul Khairaat Pombewe and  : there is improvement of the students’ reading comprehension through the Jigsaw II learning method at the second grade of MAS Nida’ul Khairaat Pombewe.Based on the resuls of the data above it proven that  was accepted and  was rejected. In conclusion, the use of the Jigsaw II learning method can improve the students’ reading comprehension at the second grade of MAS Nida’ul Khairaat Pombewe.

This research focused on the application of short movies as a media in improving speaking ability at eleventh grade students of SMA Negeri 5 Palu. The researcher applied quasi experimental research design which involved two classes of students, they were experimental class and control class. The instruments of data collection were pretest and posttest. The pretest was used to measure prior knowledge of the students and the posttest was used to measure the development of the students’ knowledge after the treatment. The t-test was analyzed to compare the mean scores of both classes. There is a significant difference score of the experimental class (1940) and the control class (1490). The level of significance was set up at 0.05 with 58 degree of freedom (df=29+31-2=58). The result of data analysis indicates that tcounted(6.84) is higher than ttable (2.002). It means that the hypothesis is accepted. Thus, the use of short movies can improve students’ speaking ability at eleventh grade students of SMA Negeri 5 Palu.

This paper focuses on the using of choral reading technique to the eleventh grade students’ reading mastery at SMA Negeri 1 Kasimbar. The writer applied quasi experimental research design and need pre-test and post-test to both experimental and control class. The pre-test was to know the level of students’ reading mastery ability before giving treatment while the post-test was used to know the result after giving treatment. There was a significant difference score of the post-test of the experimental class (1.495) and the control class (1.235). The level of significance was set up 0,05 with 40 degree of freedom ( (df) = Nx + Ny = 21 + 21 + 40). The result of data analysis indicates that tcounted (3,729) which was higher than ttable, it means that the hypothesis of the research was accepted. Thus, there was significant influence of using choral reading technique to the eleventh grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Kasimbar.
