The criteria of the normality test of post-test if the value of (probability
value/critical value) was higher than or equal to the level of significance alpha
defined, it means that the distribution was normal. Based on the calculation used
SPSS 21.00 program, asymptotic significance normality of control group was
0.009 and experiment group 0.571 Then the normality both of class was
consulted with a table of Kolmogorov- Smirnov with the level of significance
5% (α=0.05). because asymptotic significance of control 0.571 > 0.05, and
asymptotic significance of experiment 0.009 > 0.05. it could be concluded that
the data was a normal distribution. It meant that the students’ pre-test score of
experimental and control group had a normal distribution.
2. Homogeneity Test

The criteria of the homogeneity test post test were if the value of
(probability value/critical value) was higher than or equal to the level of
significance alpha defined (r = a), it means that the distribution was homogeneity.
Based on the calculation using SPSS 21.0 above, the value of (probably
value/critical value) from post test of the experimental and control group on

Homogeneity of Variances in sig column is known that p-value was 0,102. The
data in this study fulfilled homogeneity since the p-value is higher 0,102 > 0.05.
C. Result Data Analysis
1. Testing Hypothesis Using Manual Calculation
To test the hypothesis of the study, the writer used t-test statistical
calculation. Firstly, the writer calculated the standard deviation and the error of
X1 and X2 at the previous data presentation. In could be seen on this following
table:

The table showed the result of the standard deviation calculation of X1 was 1.

495 and the result of the standard error mean calculation were 8.590. The result of the
standard deviation calculation of X2 was 1.308 and the result of the standard error mean
calculation was 7.848.
The next step, the writer calculated the standard error of the difference mean
between X1 and X2 as follows:

SEM1 – SEM2 = 1.163525676553
SEM1 – SEM2 = 1.163
The calculation above showed the standard error of the differences mean
between X1 and X2 was 1.946. Then, it was inserted into the ttest formula to get the value
of t test as follows:

to =

to =

to =
to = 3.53
Which the criteria:
If t-test ≥ t-table, Ha is accepted and Ho is rejected
If t-test < t-table, Ha is rejected and Ho is accepted

76

Then, the writer interpreted the result of t-test; previously, the writer accounted
the degree of freedom (df) with the formula:
Df

= (N1+N2) -2
= 33+36 – 2 = 67
The resecher chose the significant levels at 5%, it means the significant level

of the refusal of null hypothesis at 5%. The researcher decided the significance level at
5% due to the hypothesis typed stated on non-directional (two-tailed test). It meant that
the hypothesis can’t direct the prediction of the alternative hypothesis. Alternative
hypothesis symbolized by “1”. This symbol could direct the answer of hypothesis, “1”
can be (>) or (2.65. It means Ha was accepted and Ho was rejected. It meant Ha was accepted and Ho
was rejected. It could be interpreted based on the result of calculation that H a stating that

Cartoon Story Maker was effective for Teaching Writing Recount Text of the tenth
grade students at MAN Katingan Hilir was accepted and Ho stating that Cartoon Story
Maker was not effective for Teaching Writing Recount Text of the tenth grade
students at MAN Katingan Hilir was rejected. It meant that teaching writing with
Cartoon Story Maker was effective for Teaching Writing Recount Text of the tenth
graders of MAN Katingan Hilir gave significant effect at 5% and 1% significance level.
2. Testing Hypothesis Using SPSS 21.0 Program

The researcher also applied SPSS 21.0 program to calculate t test in the testing
hypothesis of the study. The result of the t test using SPSS 21.0 was used to support the
manual calculation of the t test. The result of the test using SPSS 21.0 program could be
seen as follows:

The table showed the result of t – test calculation using SPSS 21.0 program. To know
the variances score of data, the formula could be seen as follows:

If α =0.05 < Sig, Ho accepted and Ha rejected
If α = 0.05> Sig, Ha accepted and Ho rejected

Since the result of post-test between experimental and control group had
difference score of variance, it found that α = 0.05 was higher than Sig (2-tailed) or
(0.05>0.00) so that Ha was accepted and Ho was rejected . The result of ttest was 3.53,
mean difference between experimental and control group was 4.10859 and the standard
error difference between experimental and control group was 1.97872.
To examine the truth or the false of null hypothesis stating that the there is no
effect of Project-Based Learning using Cartoon Story Maker in writing recount text at
tenth graders of MAN Katingan Hilir. The result of t – test was interpreted on the result of
the degree of freedom to get the ttable. The result of the degree of freedom (df) was 67. The
following table was the result of observed and ttable from 67 df at 5% and 1% significance level.

The interpretation of the result of t-test using SPSS 21.0 program, it was found
the t observe was greater than the t table at 5% significance level or 2.002.65. It
means that Ha was accepted and Howas rejected. It could be interpreted based on the result of
calculation that Ha stating that Project-Based Learning using Cartoon Story Maker was

effective for Teaching Writing Recount Text of the tenth grade students at MAN
Katingan Hilir was accepted and Ho stating that Project-Based Learning using Cartoon
Story Maker was not effective for Teaching Writing Recount Text of the tenth grade
students at MAN Katingan Hilir was rejected. It meant that teaching writing with Cartoon
Story Maker was effective for Teaching Writing Recount Text of the tenth graders at
MAN Katingan Hilir gave significant effect at 5% and 1 % significance level.
D. Discussion
The result of the analysis showed that there was a significant effect of ProjectBased Learning using Cartoon Story Maker in writing Recount text at tenth graders of
MAN Katingan Hilir It can be seen from the means score between pre-test and post-test.
The mean score of post test reached a higher score than the mean score of Pre-test (X=
53.61 < Y=50.14). It indicated that the students’ score increased after conducting
treatment. In other words, the students writing Recount text taught by Project-Based
Learning using Cartoon Story Maker have better than those taught by non-Project Based
Learning using Cartoon Story Maker at the tenth graders of MAN Katingan Hilir. There
are some problem when the treatment in school the firs media, media is very important to
learning writing using cartoon story maker, becouse in laboratory computer definite for
the students, so when learning the students bring laptop in school. The second lack a
vocabulary, so when the treatment the teacher gave vocabulary in each meeting, the
students memorize the vocabularies.

81

In addition, after the data was calculated using the ttest formula using SPSS
21.00 program showed that the observed was 3.53. In addition, After the students have been
taught by Cartoon Story Maker, the writing score was higher than before implementing
it. This finding indicated that Project-Based Learning using Cartoon Story Maker was
effective.
In teaching learning process, taught writing Recount text by using Cartoon Story
Maker was a tool used by the writer to teach the students. It could be seen from the score
of students how the used of Cartoon Story Maker gave positive effects for students
writing Recount text. It meant that it has an important role in teaching learning process.
It was answered the problem of the study which “Is there any significant effect of
Cartoon Story Maker in writing Recount text at tenth graders of MAN Katingan Hilir?”.
Project-Based Learning using Cartoon Story Maker as means for language
learning effectively enhanced the writing Recount text at tenth graders of MAN Katingan
Hilir. The students writing Recount text was enhanced after the treatment when they
were given opportunities to use Cartoon Story Maker in the learning process. They wrote
better Recount text using more meaningful contents within a well-organized text in the
post-test.
The results supported the theory by Dare and Gar in Chapter II page 14, stated that
Cartoon Story Maker helped students increase own language learning in a fun and
motivating way.51 The students gave their attention to the material because the writer
used different media than usual. Using Cartoon Story Maker as a media in writing text
actively encourages a collaborative environment, increases motivation and the student's

participation. They could update the writing assignments on Cartoon Story Maker and
their friends commented on their writing.
Next results supported the theory by Tarantino and Graf in Chapter II page 15,
stated that integrating Cartoon Story Maker in the foreign language course had several
perceived that using Cartoon Story Maker seems to have a significant impact on
language learning. Such as the nature of the students-to-students and students-toinstructor instructions is more multi-dimensional than a traditional writing assignment.52
In line with it, the writer gave the students the assignment of Recount text and asked
them to post their writing on Cartoon Story Maker not on paper so that the students had
enthusiasm on produce the text.
The result of t-test using SPSS 21.0 program, it was found the t test was greater
than the t table at 5% significance level or 2.002.65. It means that Ha was accepted
and Howas rejected. It could be interpreted based on the result of a calculation that Ha stating
that Cartoon Story Maker was effective for Teaching Writing Recount Text of the tenth

graders of MAN Katingan Hilir was accepted and Ho stating that Cartoon Story Maker
was not effective for teaching writing Recount text of the tenth graders of MAN
Katingan Hilir was rejected. It meant that teaching writing with Cartoon Story Maker was
effective for teaching writing recount text of the tenth graders of MAN Katingan Hilir.
