The problem of this study was “were there any significant differences on
the eighth grade students’ listening comprehension achievements after they were
taught through listening team strategy and those who were not?”. Therefore, the
main objective of this study was to find out whether there were significant
differences between the eighth grade students listening comprehension
achievements after they were taught and those who were not.
This study applied a quasi-experimental design. The population was the
eighth grade students of State Junior High School 1 of Tanjung Raja with the total
number of the 215 students. The sample was 62 students. They were 31 students
as experimental group from class VIII.2 and 31 students as control group from
class VIII.5, taken by using purposive sampling. The data were collected by using
a written test with multiple choice questions and analyzed by using t-test.
The result of t-obtained was 8.82 at signifance level of 0.05 and with one-
tailed testing. Since the value of t-obtained was higher than the value of t-table
(8.82 > 1.697) consequently the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected and the
alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted. It means that there were significant
effects of listening team strategy on the eighth grade students’ listening
comprehension at State Junior High School 1 of Tanjung Raja.
