Listening plays the important roles in the process of language teaching. Listening is a difficult subject for the students, especially for the students of SMPN 13 Jember. It is very hard for the students to identify correctly different problems such as sounds, sound combinations and intonations. Besides, the students are expected not only to identify the problems above but also to be able to comprehend the general and specific information of the material. As informed by the English teacher, the students’ enthusiasm in learning listening skill was low. The students were not excited while studying listening skill. It caused them feel hard to understand the spoken of native speaker. Therefore, to make the students more motivated, it is crucial to use interesting media in teaching listening. One media that may have a significant effect to increase students’ listening comprehension is Stick Figures. This research was a quasi-experimental research. The purpose of this research was to know whether or not the use of stick figures has a significant effect on the listening comprehension achievement of the eighth grade students of SMPN 13 Jember. The area of this research was SMPN 13 Jember. It was chosen purposively because the use of stick figures had never been applied in teaching learning process in this school. The respondents of this research were the eighth grade students of SMPN 13 Jember in the 2012/ 2013 academic year. The research respondents were determined by cluster random sampling by lottery. The total number of the respondents was 58 students that consisted of 29 students of VIII A as the experimental group taught by vii using stick figures and the control group consisted of 29 students of VIII B taught without stick figures. The data of this research were collected from the students’ scores of listening test, interview and documentation. The listening comprehension test was collected from the pre-test and post-test to make comparison of the gained scores between the two groups after the treatment, and the result was analyzed by using t-test formula. Based on the calculation, the mean score of the experimental group was higher than that of the mean score of the control group (10> 1.72). The result of the t-test analysis with significant level of 5% was higher than that of the t-table. This means that the hypothesis of the research stating that the use of Stick Figures has a significant effect on listening comprehension achievement of the eighth grade students of SMPN 13 Jember was accepted. It indicated that there was a significant effect of using Stick Figures on listening comprehension achievement of the eighth grade students of SMPN 13 Jember. Therefore, it is recommended for the teacher to use stick figures as alternative media in teaching listening comprehension.en_US
