3.7 Data Analysis
In order to find out the increase of the student’ speaking ability after being taught by using debate, the researcher examined the student’ score using the following step.
The first was scoring the pre-test and the post test. The second was tabulating the score of the students’ speaking ability result using rating scale.

The third was drawing conclusion from the tabulating of result the pre test and post test administrated statistically use analyze the data using the statistical computation
i.e. repeated measure T- Test of SPSS version 16.
3.8 Hypothesis Testing
After getting the mean of pretest and the posttest, the researcher would analyze the data by using Repeated Measures T-Test in order to know the significance of the
treatment effect.
Hypothesis of this research:
1. There is a significant increase of students’ speaking ability after being taught through debate
2. The teaching learning using Debate would also increase the process of teaching learning speaking at the second grade of SMA UTAMA 2 BANDAR
LAMPUNG. The first Hypothesis would be statistically analyzed using Repeated measures T- Test
to draw the conclusion at the level of 0.05 p˂0.05.
