ABSTRACT
Amilatun Nafisa, 2022: The Effectiveness of Self-Collection Strategy on Students’ Vocabulary Mastery Key words: VSS Strategy, vocabulary mastery, vocabulary Vocabulary plays an important role in assisting students in better understanding English by intensively increasing vocabulary. Therefore, vocabulary materials should be designed and taught properly to engage students in learning English, particularly in vocabulary classrooms. Some problems found
during teaching and learning vocabulary: (1) Some students do not pay attention to the teacher's explanations. (2) Students have no confidence to express their opinions. (3) Some students look sleepy, and others look confused with the
material delivered by the teacher. (4) Students feel embarrassed when asked to ask questions. (5) Some students are not enthusiastic when given assignments. Several strategies can be used to solve those problems and one of the strategies that can be exploited is Vocabulary Self-Collection Strategy (VSS).This research aimed to examine the effectiveness of the Vocabulary Self-
collection Strategy in enhancing students’vocabulary mastery. The researcher
used quantitative-experimental research, in which the design was quasi-experimental with a non-equivalent control group design. The researcher used two classes for this research, the experimental class, and the control class. The
experimental class was taught by using Vocabulary Self-collection Strategy while the controlled class was taught by using the conventional strategy. The participants of this research were the eighth-grade students of SMP Unggulan
Darul Ulum in the academic year 2022/2023 who were recruited through a purposive sampling technique. They were students of VIII C as the experimental group which consisted of 29 students and students of VIII D as the control group
which consisted of 25 students. The researcher used questionnaires, observation checklists, and tests to collect the data.The results of this research revealed a significant difference in the
student's vocabulary mastery between those taught by using VSS and those taught without using VSS. The experimental class's pre-test result showed that the mean score was 40.86. Meanwhile, the post-test result showed that the mean score was
80.171. Furthermore, as seen in the differences between the scores and Percentages obtained through the observation checklist. The total percentage of the students’ motivation in the experimental was 88% while in the control group
was 61%. Moreover, the calculation of the Independent Sample t-test reveals that
the significance sig. (2-tailed) was 0.001 < 0. 05. Which means (H0) is rejected and Ha is accepted. It can be concluded there was an Effect of the Vocabulary Self-collection Strategy on the student's vocabulary mastery.
