2.2.4.3 Effectiveness of Vocabulary Self-Collection and Interactive Cloze
Strategy
There are some definitions related with effectiveness. The effectiveness of a strategy which used in teaching process
can help the teacher to achieve the goal of learning
. The effectiveness itself has some meanings as follows:
According to Schillinger 2010:2, effectiveness refers to the intervention‟s
ability to do more good than harm for the target population in a real world setting. Next, Seiler et al
2013:97 state that effectiveness is the ability to achieve stated goals.
From those definitions, it can be concluded that effectiveness is a successful way to measure of the match between stated goal and the achievement.
In the present study, I try to find out the effectiveness of Vocabulary Self- Collection and Interactive Cloze Strategy to improve students‟ vocabulary
mastery. It is conducted to know which one is more effective between Vocabulary Self-Collection and Interactive Cloze Strategy as conventional one in teaching
vocabulary.
2.3 Theoretical Framework
In conducting the present study entitled “The Effectiveness of Vocabulary Self- Collection and Interactive Cloze Strategy to Improve Students’ Mastery”, I
concern to s tudents‟ vocabulary achievement. In this study, I use a quasi-
experimental design. I divide the subject of the study into two groups,
experimental group and control group. In experimental group, I teach students by using Vocabulary Self-Collection, while in control group, I teach the students by
usinhInteractive Cloze. When conducting the study, I design vocabulary test as a main instrument to collect the data between both groups and to compare the
effectiveness of two strategies in improving students` vocabulary mastery. Before I give a treatment, the pre-test is given for both groups to measure
students‟ basic ability on vocabulary achievement. After giving the treatment, I give post-test in both groups to measure the significant differences of students`
vocabulary achievement between experimental group and control group. After finding the result of the test, I calculate the computation of the mean
score using the t-test formula. The mean scores are compared in order to know whether there is a significant difference between pre-test and post-test between the
two groups or not and to know which strategy is more effective to teach vocabulary. The theoretical framework of the present study visualized below:
