F. Technique of Data Analysis

In analyzing the data, the writer used t test formula. The two classes are compared to the independent variable, the experiment class is X variable and the control class is Y variable. The formula of t test is expressed as follows: 6 Where: Mx = Mean of Variable X My = Mean of Variable Y SE = Standard Error Afterwards, the calculation goes to several processes as follows: 7 1. Determining Mean of Variable X ∑ 2. Determining Mean of Variable Y ∑ 6 Anas Sudijono, Pengantar Statistik Pendidikan. Jakarta: PT. Raja Grafindo Persada, 2008, p. 324. 7 Ibid., pp. 325--326. 3.

G. Statistical Hypothesis

The statistical hypothesis of this study can be seen as: Ho : There is no significant progress in using picturess series towards students’ writing skill in narrative text. Ha : There is a significant progress in using pictures series towards students’ writing skill in narrative text. Ho : µ 1 = µ 2 H a : µ 1 ≠ µ 2 And then, the criteria used as follows: 1. If t-test t o t-table t t in significant degree of 0.05, Ho null hypothesis is rejected. It means that the rates of mean score of the experimental group are higher than the controlled group. The using of pictures series is e ffective towads students’ writing skill in narrative text. 2. If t-test t o t-table t t in significant degree of 0.05, Ho the null hypothesis is accepted. It means that the rates of the means score of the experimental group are same as or lower than the controlled group. The using of pictures seriesis is not effective towards student s’ writing skill in narrative text. 29

CHAPTER IV RESEARCH FINDING

A. Data Description

The data were collected from students pre-test and post-test of both classes. The data which is obtained is described into two tables. The table 4.1 showed the students’ score and achievement in experiment class and the table 4.2 showed the students’ score and achievement in control class. Each table has five columns; the first column showed the number of students, the second and the third column showed pre-test and post-test scores, the fourth column showed the gain score from pre-test and post-test, and the last column showed the catogorization in post test score.
