RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

A. Objective of Research: . . . .

B. Place and Time of Research

C. Research Method:
The research used an experimental method in which the independent variable was . . . .; and the
dependent variable was . . . .. The independent variable (experiment) was implemented through teaching
using . . . method and the control variable (learning result) classified into the achievement in . . .

D. Research Design
This research used a true experimental design in Pretest-Posttest Control Group type. Through
this type of design, the two randomized subjects, experimental and control groups, were given a pre-test
and post test. The pre-test was given in order to investigate whether there were significant differences
between the experimental and control group. However, after the pre-test, the experimental group were
given treatment through teaching using . . . method; while the control group were not. The effect of the
treatment was seen using the form: (Y2 Y1) (Y4 Y3). The design of research can be illustrated as
follows:

Dependent
Group Pre-Test Post Test
Variable
(R Experiment
Y1 X Y2
)
(R Control
Y3 - Y4
)

D. Population and Sample

The population of this research was . . . .. The research sample was . . . The sampling of this
research used random sampling technique. Random sampling can be defined as a technique of sampling
without considering the strata of the members due to the fact that the members (respondents) of this
research were categorized homogeneous. The sample of the research is figured as follows:

Students
Total
A B
? ? ?

E. Data, Source of Data, and Data Collecting Technique

The data of this research were quantitative data: all scores of tests given both to the experimental
and control group. To collect the data, the researcher prepared test instruments, pre-test and post test.
The data were collected from the works of the students . . .. Consequently, the data were collected using
test technique.

G. Data Collection Procedures

The data were collected using the following procedures:
 1. . . .
2. . . .
3. . . .

F. Validity and Reliability

To test the hypothesis the researcher tested the instrument to see the validity and reliability, in
this case the test items. Based on . . . number of students, there were . . . items of test were categorized
valid. The validity test used product moment correlation techniques. Then, the result (r-product) was
compared to the r-table (. . .) in significance level 0.05. If r-product is greater than the r-table, the items of
the instrument are valid; and in verse.
An instrument is reliable if the instrument is consistent in measuring what is measured. In this
research the reliability test used Cronbach Alpha coefficient using the SPSS Version . . . for Windows. An
instrument is reliable when r-table.

G. Data Analysis Technique

Analyzing data is an important stage in a research. After data are collected, the data should be
analyzed using a technique concerned with the research method. Since this research was quantitative
(experimental), the researcher used the qualitative (descriptive statistics) and quantitative analysis
(Analysis of Variance [ANOVA]) techniques. Descriptive technique is used to describe the subjects
through the sample. In this research the descriptive techniques was used to describe the tendency of the
respondents towards the independent variable concerned with the implementation of method . . . in
teaching . . . to students . . . .
ANOVA, in this case two way ANOVA was used to test the hypothesis. To implement this
technique, the researcher used the following t-test, formulated as:

t=r n1
1r 2
r = koef. Regresi

n = jumlah responden

t = uji hipotesis
