This study intends to describe a cause effect relationship between independent variables, wordsprinted in cool color and words printed in warm color on the dependent variable, word retention. Thisstudy was conducted at second graders of MIPA at SMA Negeri 1 Tomohon in the academic year2015/2016 and the sample were 60 students randomly chosen from 179 students in all of 5 parallelclasses to represent the population that using random sampling technique. The second grade of MIPAdepartment consisted of 5 parallel classes with 179 students in all and 36 per class on the average.It is a quantitative research, the data are in form of test scores, and analyzed using the statisticaltechnique (t-test), the results of statistical testing or analysis confirm that both the hypotheses dealingimmediate is rejected which means that the alternative hypothesis is accepted, because at p (or α)=.05 and df = 62, the t (observed) is larger than the t (critical) or 3.023 ≥ 2.000. Similarly, the null hypothesisdealing with delayed retention was also rejected, because at p (or α) =.05 and df = 62, the t (observed)is larger than the t (critical) or 4.062 ≥ 2.000. In both immediate and delayed retentions, the subjects incool color group outperformed those in warm color group. Based on this result, it can be concludedthat words printed in cool color with white background more significantly affect students’ immediateretention than words printed in warm color with the same color background also similarly withimmediate retention, it can be concluded that words printed in cool color with white backgroundmore significantly affect students’ delayed retention than words printed in warm color with the samecolor background. Based on the conclusion, it is suggested for English teachers to make maximaluse of colors to help their students memorize new words in English. In addition, the informationprovided by this study is also important for textbook writers and teaching aid providers. Therefore,it is necessary that they make their textbooks and teaching aids colorful in order the students areinterested in reading their textbooks and looking at the teaching aids used.Keywords: impact, color, student, immediate, delayed, retention, vocabulary

This is a mixed method-explanatory research. This study aims to obtain information about the relationship between the ability to solve environmental problems with students 'argumentation skills about socio-scientific issues and the reasons why the variable ability to solve environmental problems has a very high relationship in improving students' argumentation skills about socio-scientific issues as well as other factors that influence it in addition to the ability to solve environmental issues. This research was conducted in November 2017 until May 2018. The population of this research is Biology Education Student, FKIP, Universitas Pakuan academic year 2017/2018. Sampling technique using purposive sampling and Slovin. The sample of 113 students consist of semesters 2 to semester 6. Based on the result of significance test and linearity test it can be concluded that simple regression analysis with equation Ŷ = 0,898 + 0,049 X is significant and linear. Based on the results of quantitative research obtained correlation coefficient (ry) between the ability to solve environmental problems with student argumentation skills about socio-scientific issues of 0.765. The value of this correlation coefficient shows that the null hypothesis (H0) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted, it means that the ability to solve the environmental problems contributes very highly to students' argumentation skill about socio-scientific issue. Based on the results of interviews on several sources, there are other factors that influence students' argumentation skill about socio-scientific issues among others, confidence, lecturer role, and peer role during discussion.
