This research aimed to analyze the difference of learning outcomes by using Student Facilitator and Explaining model and direct learning model on Digital Simulation subject at class X TKJ SMKN 1 Tilatang Kamang. The problem in this study was the student learning result which were still under KKM on Digital Simulation subjects at SMKN 1 Tilatang Kamang. Type of this research was Quasi Experiment. The sample was taken through Probability Sampling technique. The research samples were class X TKJ A  and class X TKJ B. Class X TKJ A as sample for experiment class using Student Facilitator and Explaining  model and class X TKJ B as sample for control class using direct learning model. Data analyzed based on post-test experiment class and control class, then analyzed for normality test, homogeneity test and hypothesis test. From the experimental class, the research results obtained an average of 82.47, while the control class was averaged of 76.94. Result of hypothesis calculation at significant level α = 0,05 found tcount> ttable that is 1,78> 1,699, because tcount was bigger than ttable, so null hypothesis (H0) was rejected and alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted. It can be concluded at the real level that this study showed that Student Facilitator and Explainingmodel gave significant effect on students learning results of Digital Simulation at class X TKJ in SMKN 1 Tilatang Kamang.

Class VIII B consisted of 22 students and class VIII F consisted of 22 students. Both classes were given the pre-test at the beginning and the post-test at the end after the treatment. The data were collected by using speaking test. The data were analyzed by using t-test computation, descriptive analysis, and inferential analysis. The research findings show that there is a significant difference in students’ speaking ability between the experimental group taught by using cartoon videos and those who were taught by using conventional method. The result of the pre-test shows that both groups are poor, while the post-test result shows that the experiment group is better than the control one. The mean score of the experimental class in pre-test was 42.50 and that of control class was 42.73.
