Then it was ssupported by the questionnaire given to the experimental class.From the normality test result for control class, both pre-test and post-test were obtained ๐๐ ๐ = 2.89 <๐๐ก 2 = 9.49, and ๐๐ ๐ = 7.12 <๐๐ก 2 = 9.49 then Ho was received and the sample of the population is normally distributed. In the pre-test of experiment class it was obtained ๐๐ ๐ = 0.65 was smaller than ๐๐ก 2 = 9.49, and ๐๐ ๐= 0.71 was smaller than ๐๐ก 2 = 9.49, so Ho was accepted and the sample of the population was also normally distribution. Based on the homogeneity test, the writer got variance of pre-test score between experiment class and control class that is Fobserved< Ftable, (1.00< 2.17), and the post test score between the experimental class and control class is Fobserved< Ftable, (1.22<2.17), hence, Ho was accepted and both data variances are homogeneous. From the calculation of independent t-test, tobserved > ttable (179 >1.67) it was found Ho was rejected and Hi hypothesis was accepted which meant that studentsโ mean value using Edmodo as media is higher compared with students using conventional method; without media, so it can be concluded Edmodo media can increase studentsโ grammar mastery in their learning.
