THE EFFECTIVENESS OF USING YOUTUBE VIDEO IN TEACHING ENGLISH GRAMMAR VIEWED FROM STUDENTS’ ATTITUDE

Abstract The research aims at investigating the effect of using YouTube video in teaching English grammar. The research was conducted at the English Education Program in Lampung in 2012. The population was all of the first semester students of English Education Program. The sample of the study consisted of 72 students distributed randomly on one experimental class who was taught by using YouTube video and one class as control class who was taught by using textbooks. The instruments for collecting the data were a questionnaire on students’ attitude to find out the students who have positive and and negative attitude, and a grammar test to find out the students’ achievement in learning grammar. Analysing data using ANOVA or analysis of variance and Tukey test leads to the conclusion that: (1) YouTube video as media ( = 27.75) is more effective than textbooks (=24.41) to teach grammar; (2) the students who have positive attitude have higher achievement (=29.11) than those who have negative attitude (=23.05); and (3) there is an interaction between teaching media and students’ attitude. Key word: YouTube video, textbook, attitude, grammar, experimental study.
