that the significance was 0.429. The significance 0.429 was higher than 0.05, it meant that the pre-test was homogenous.
b. Post-test Homogeneity Test

The writer used Levene Statistics in order to find the homogeneity of the post-test with the significance level 0.05. Then from the table above, it could be
seen that the significance was 0.598. The significance 0.598 on the table above was higher than 0.05, it meant that the pre-test was homogenous.
C. Data Analysis
After doing the preliminary analysis then move to data analysis using t-test. The t-test was done using two types of calculating: using IBM SPSS Statistics 22
and calculating manually. This analysis was done in order to know the effectiveness of blended learning model on students’ reading comprehension of
exposition text at SMAN 4 Tangerang Selatan. The results are as follows:

Based on the table above, it showed the resultof the t-test for pre-test. The table 4.8 showed the mean of pre-test M

on both experimental and controlled classes. Furthermore table 4.9 showed the result of t-test. Since the pre-test was
homogenous because Levenes Test showed p=0.464, then it was greater than 0.05 p0.05. Therefore the t-test showed in equal variances assumed. The t-test of
pre-test result was 0,158 p=0.158, in other words p was greater than 0.05 p0.05. From the result it meant that the the null hypotheisis was accepted, there
were no significance differences between both experimental and controlled classes in pre-test.
