– 2 df = 34 + 34
– 2 df = 68-2
df = 66 a.  Finally the writer got the degree of freedom df is 34+34= 68-2= 66.
From the t table  t
table
, df = 66 the writer took degree of significance 5 0.05 to interpret the t
o
that have been gained, that is :   In degree of significance 5, t
t
= 2.00 b.  The t
o
= 3.68, so the result of t
t
: t
o
in degree of significance 5 is, t
o
: t
t
= 3.68   =2.00 t

It means that t

is higher than t

in degree of significance 5.
C. Data Interpretation
This  part  covers  the  discussion  of  the  teaching  writing  by  using Think  Pair  Share  Technique  and  then  interprets  the  result  of  data.  The
discussion is based on the research question, which was whether there was any significant difference on
students’ writing ability between the students who was taught of Descriptive writing using Think Pair Share Technique
and Conventional method. In this research, there were 34 students  in  experimental  and 34 in
the  controlled class. Therefore, the degree of  freedom  df is  34+34= 68- 2= 66.  The writer took  the degree of significance in  level 5 to  give the
interpretation  of  the  result  of  this  research.  With  df  =  66  the  degree  of significance in level 5 = 2.00.
From the calculation by using SPSS and manual formula the result of  t-test  is  same,  it  can  be  seen  in  the  table  4.6  and  4.8.  The  data  shows
that  the  experimental  class  has  the  higher  score  than  controlled  class  in pre-test, post-test and gained score. So, it was a significant difference from
measurement score in the experimental and the controlled class Mx= 34, My= 22.29, SDx= 13.98, SDy= 12.186, t 66= 2.00, p=0.00.
Then, the writer compares the t
o
with the value of t
t ,
the result is t :
t
t
=  3.682.00.  The  comparison  between  t
o
and  t
table
indicates  that  t
o
is higher than t
table
in the degree of significance of 5. As it is known that t
o
is  higher  than  t
table
in  the  degree  of  significance  5,  it  means  that  H
a
is accepted in degree of significance 5. In another words, it means that H
o
is  rejected.  It  can  be  concluded  that  there  is  a  significant  difference  in result between students
’ ability of SMAN 2 Kabupaten Tangerang grade X in  learning  descriptive  writing  using  Think  Pair  Share  Technique  and
using  conventional  method.  Which  is  concluded  that  the  use  of  Thnink Pair Share
Technique influences the students’ writing ability.

CHAPTER V CONCLUSION and SUGGESTION
A. CONCLUSSION
Based on the research conducted in grade X1 and grade X5 at SMAN 2 Kabupaten Tangerang, in academic year 20132014, it can be concluded that
teaching  Descriptive  Writing  using  Cooperative  Learning  Think  Pair  Share Technique  to  the  students  of  SMAN  2  Kabupaten  Tangerang  grade  X  gives
positive influence to the students’ achievement.
The  result  of  the  analysis  in  the  research  can  be  seen  in  the  previous chapter,  that t
o
value is 3.68 and t
table
value is 2.00 in degree of significant 5. It  can  be  concluded  that  t
o
is  higher  than  t
t
t
o
:  t
t
=  3.6    2.00.  So,  the hypothesis  H
a
is  accepted  because  t
o
t
t
,  it  can  be  infered  that  teaching descriptive  writing  by  using  think  pair  share  technique  gives  the  positive
influence  to  the  tenth  grade    students’  achievement  on  SMAN  2  Kabupaten Tangerang.
B. SUGGESTION
In this part, the writer would like to give some suggestion for the teacher, as follow:
1.  First  the  teacher  should  deliver  material  clearly  and  also  should  pay attention to the student’s activity while teaching and learning processes,
in this case the teacher should focus on teaching and learning strategy not only focus on transfering information.
2.  Second, the teacher should be more creative providing the topic which can motivate students to write.
3.  The  last  is  Think  Pair  Share  technique  can  be  applied  in  English learning  process  as  one  of  the  innovation  in  teaching  and  learning
process, particularly to improve students ’ ability in writing descriptive
text.
