The study was started by giving pre-test, treatments, and post-test to both groups.

Moreover, from the t-test result t value16.710 with the significant difference level 0,00. Since Sig value is 0.000 < 0.05, it can be concluded that there is significant difference from both of groups, experimental and control group. The research findings of this study revealed that the results of the post-test and t-test calculation were contrary to the null hypothesis and were in line with the working hypothesis which stated “there is significant difference between the students taught by using Vocabulary Self-Collection Strategy and Round Tablewith those who were not”.
