Based on the result of pre-test, having calculated the mean score of pre-test and standard deviation, the data showed that the mean score of pre-test was 57.5 and
44
the standard deviation based on the calculation of students’ score in pre-test of table 4.1 was 8.23. From that analyzing, it could be seen that most of students’ ability in vocabulary was still low.

Based on the result of post-test, having calculated the mean score of post-test and standard deviation, the data showed that the mean score of pre-test was 86.3 and the standard deviation based on the calculation of students’ score in pre-test of table 4.2 was 9.07. From that analyzing, it could be seen that almost of 58 students’
vocabulary mastery was very good because there was an improvement of students’
score.
4.1.1.3 The result of the pre-test and post-test were presented in the following:
Having calculated the result of the students’ pre-test and post-test, the mean score and standard deviation of the students’ vocabulary mastery are presented in table 4.3 below:
Table 4.3 The Mean Score and Standard Deviation of The Pre-test and Post-test Test Mean Score Standard Derivation (SD)
Pre Test Post Test
57.5 86.3
8.23 9.07
(Data’ source: The Mean Score and Standard Deviation of the Pre-test and Post-test) The data in table 4.3 indicates that there was an improvement while doing pre- test up to post-test. In pre-test had score 57.5 and the post-test score increased become 86.3. The standard deviation of pre-test was 8.23 (SD) while the standard deviation of the post-test was 9.07 (SD).
As the result at this item was the mean score and standard deviation of the post-test were greater than the mean score and standard deviation in pre-test. It means that the students’ vocabulary mastery had improvement after doing the learning process that used in class.

4.1.1.4 The Rate Percentage of the Frequency of the Pre-test and Post-test
The following table shows the percentage of the frequency in pre-test and post-test.

The data of the table above showed the students’ percentage of pretest was most common in poor score namely 32 students (55%). Whereas the percentage of posttest indicated that there was increasing percentage a great majority of the students in vocabulary mastery because there were 37 students (64%) had gotten very good scores. In other words, it can be said that the rate percentage of students in post-test was greater than the rate percentage in the pre-test. So, it can be concluded that there was an increasing percentage after doing pretest up to posttest.

In order to know whether or not the mean score was different significantly from the pre-test and post-test at the level of significance 0,05 with the degree of freedom (df) = N-1, where N = number of sample (58), so (df) = 57. After obtaining
52
the degree of freedom, the t-table at the degree of freedom 57 in significant degrees of 0,05 (5%), the table is 1.671. The following table shows the result of the t-test calculation:
Table 4.6 The Test of Significance
Variable T-test T-table value
Pre-test and post-test 14.494 1.671
(Data’ Source : The Test of Significance)
Table 4.6 above shows that the value of t- test (14.494) was greater than t-table (1.671). It indicated that memrise application could significantly improve the vocabulary mastery of the second grade students of MA DDI Kanang.
4.1.1.6 Hypothesis Testing
The level significant (α) 5% and Df = 57 and the value of the t-table is 1.671 while the value of t-test is 14.494, it can be concluded that the t-test is higher than t- table (14.494 >1.671). Thus, it means that the students’ vocabulary mastery was significanly better after getting the treatment. So, the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Hi) is accepted. It has been found that there was improvement of Memrise Application on students’ vocabulary mastery.
4.1.2 Finding The Students’ Response through Questionnaire
On Saturday, November 16th, 2019,after the students followed the process of learning in the first meeting until sixth meeting, the researcher gave questionnaire to know students’ response to memrise application. The result of questionnaire was presented as following:

X = ∑ 𝑋
𝑁 X = 4802
58 = 82.79
