dc.description.abstractThere are many Indonesian students facing a lot of difficulties in learning English. One of them is to understand and apply English grammar, especially in learning tenses (Nababan, 1986:4). It happens because English grammar is different from Indonesian grammar. In Bahasa Indonesia, we do not have the term tenses. Therefore, the students tend to get confused and have difficulty in learning tenses. Concerning with the students‟ difficulty in mastering tense, the researcher tried to find an interesting teaching and learning technique for teaching tense. Then, the researcher decided to use a cooperative learning model as a technique to teach tenses. The technique that the researcher used was Numbered Heads Together (NHT) technique. This research was conducted to investigate the effect of using Numbered Heads Together (NHT) technique on the seventh year students‟ tense achievement at SMPN 2 Balung-Jember in the 2011/2012 academic year. The population of this research was all of the seventh year students of SMPN 2 Balung-Jember in the 2011/2012 academic year. The research respondents were determined by a homogeneity test (a tense test covering Simple Present Tense and Present Continuous Tense). The number of the respondents was 69 students, consisting of 34 students of grade VII-C as the experimental group taught by using NHT technique, and 35 students of VII-B as the control group, being taught by using lecturing and giving exercises techniques.he primary data of this research were collected from the students‟ scores of tense test. The primary data were collected from the post-test to compare tense achievement of the two different groups after treatment, and then the researcher analyzed the result of the test by using Independent sample T-Test (SPSS). Based on the calculation, the result of this research showed that there was a significant effect of using NHT technique on the seventh year students‟ tense achievement. It was proved by the value of significant column of t-test table by using SPSS sofware, and the result was 0.045 which was lower than 0.05 (significant level of 5%). This means that the null hypothesis (H ) formulated: “NHT technique does not have a significant effect on the seventh year students‟ tense achievement at SMPN 2 Balung-Jember in the 2011/2012 academic year” was rejected, thus the alternative hypothesis: “NHT technique has a significant effect on the seventh year students‟ tense achievement at SMPN 2 Balung-Jember in the 2011/2012 academic year” was accepted. The research results proved that there was a significant effect of using NHT technique on the seventh year students‟ tense achievement at SMPN 2 Balung Jember in the 2011/2012 academic year. Therefore, it is recommended for the English teacher to use NHT technique as an alternative technique in teaching tenses.en_US
