Then, based on the calculation of homogeneity test the data variant was homogeneous. It was found that F<sub>-obt</sub> > F<sub>- </sub><sub>table </sub>(157 > 2.08). Meanwhile based on the result of the statistics calculation using independent t<sub>-test </sub>found that t<sub>-out </sub>= 7.69, it was higher than t<sub>-table </sub>= 2.02. it meant that there was any significant difference between the students who are taught using humanizing the classroom method and those who are taught using conventional method.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Channing: Journal of English Language Education and Literature}, author={Fadilah, Nurul and Kuspiyah, Hastuti Retno}, year={2018}, month={Apr.}, pages={8–15} }
