The samples were 74 students that were taken from the eight grade students of MTs Annajah Petaling in academic year 2015/2016. The data were obtained through test, observation and documentation. The result of the test was analyzed by using paired sample t-test in SPSS 16 (Statistical Package for Social science).Based on the results analysis, there was a significance different between students who were taught by using Talking Stick method and the students who were not taught by using Talking Stick method. It was known from the result of mean of post-test in the experimental group (67.70) was higher than the mean of post-test in the control group (65.54). In addition, there was a significant difference in vocabulary mastery between students’ who were taught by using Talking Stick method and those who were not.

The key goal of the paper is to study the influence of blended learning on the academic perfor-mance of students of a statistics Bluman course at the University of Ajman. The study was implemented by means of a quasi-experimental design. The sample of the study was 268 students, grouped into two groups: one experimental group (n = 135) that used blended learning; and the other a control group (n = 133) which was educated using the traditional method. The researchers prepared the achievement test as a tool of study after verifying its validity and reliability. The findings indicated significant statistical differences among the mean scores on the students’ post-test achievement in the two study groups, in favor of experimental group students, who were educated through blended learning. Furthermore, the outcomes showed that the scores of the experimental group students were diverse based on the variable of gender (in favor of females), and based on the variable of students’ academic year (supporting those students in the fourth academic year). However, no statistically significant difference was found among the students according to the variable of the college in which they studied. The study recommends that mixed learning is to be employed more broadly to include various educational fields.
