| Abstrak This research aimed to improve the vocabulary mastery of tenth-grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Torue through an innovative learning method, namely by listening to English songs. The background of this research was based on the low ability of students to remember, pronounce, and use new vocabulary in the correct context. This research used a quasi-experimental research design involving two groups: an experimental group that was taught using songs and a control group that was taught using conventional methods. The population is 369 students. A total of 60 students from classes XB and XC participated in this research, and data were collected through pre-test and post-test to measure the improvement of students’ vocabulary mastery, especially on verbs, nouns, and adjectives. The results of the research showed a significant increase in students’ vocabulary mastery after the treatment. The mean post-test score of the experimental group increased from 45 to 89, while the control group only increased from 46 to 76. The hypothesis test using a t- test indicated that the t-value (6.14) was higher than the t-table value (2.042), which suggested that listening to English songs was effective in improving students’ vocabulary mastery. This research concluded that the use of songs as leaning medium could create a fun learning atmosphere and increase students’ motivation to learn English. |
