THE EFFECT OF THINK PAIR SHARE (TPS) MODEL ON SPEAKING ACHIEVEMENT OF THE ELEVENTH YEAR STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI I RAMBIPUJI JEMBER IN THE 2010/2011 ACADEMIC YEAR
Abstract
This experimental research was intended to find the effect of Think Pair Share
model on the eleventh year students’ speaking achievement at SMAN I Rambipuji.
This research design was quasi experimental, that is, posttest-only control group
design. The population of this research was the eleventh year students of SMAN I
Rambipuji Jember consisting of six classes. The respondents were two of the six
classes of the eleventh year students, one was treated as the experimental group and
the other one as the control group; the classes were determined by using cluster
random sampling by considering the result of the analysis of variance (ANOVA). The
result of the analysis of variance showed that the value of f-test (8.63) was higher
than that of f-table (2.31). It means that the population of this research was not
homogenous. Therefore, the respondents were determined by considering the closest
mean difference score, namely; 73.9 (XI IPA 1 as the experimental group) and 73.8
(XI IPA 2 as the control group).
In this research, the supporting data were gained through interview and
documentation, while the primary data were gained through speaking test. The test
was given to both classes namely the experimental group and control group. The test
was conducted on May 2
nd
2011 for control group and on May 5
2011 for
experimental group. The test for the control group (XI IPA 2) was held on Monday,
May 2
nd
2011 at 08.30-10.00, while the test for the experimental group (XI IPA 1)
was held on Thursday, May 5
th
2011 at 12.00-13.30. The test was given to both
groups after they received two times treatment. The experimental group was given
