The Use of Edmodo as a Virtual Teaching Media of Listening

Abstract

This study aims at finding out whether Edmodo is effective in teaching listening
virtually at the sixth semester of Cokroaminoto Palopo University. This study is preexperimental
design which consists of pre-test, treatment and post-test. The population of this study
is the sixth semester of Cokroaminoto Palopo University. The technique used to select
the sample is simple random sampling. The data is analyzed using significant t-test (paired
sample t-test). The result of the study shows that the value of mean score of pre-test (61.50) is
lower than the mean score of post-test (68.67). It means that the use of Edmodo is effective in
teaching listening. The result of paired sample t-test shows that the value of sig. (2-tailed) is
lower than alpha (α) (0.000<0.05), It means that Null Hypothesis (H0) is rejected and
Alternative Hypothesis (H1) is accepted. Therefore Edmodo is significantly effective in
teaching listening virtually at the sixth semester of Cokroaminoto Palopo University.
