After analyzing the data, it was found that the value of t-observed was 3,189 with the degree of freedom (df)=46 at the level of significance p(0,05) = 1.678. It means that t-observed was higher than t-table (3,189 > 1.678). The result of this study showed that teaching by using Team Word-Webbing was higher than that by using Lecturing Method.
