The experimental group were taught by using Round Robin technique meanwhile the control group were taught by using lecturing method. The result showed that the mean score of experimental groups increased from 70,88 in pre-test to 78,67 in post-test. Furthermore, the result of independent t-test from experimental group and control group shown that the t-obtained was 2,625 and it was higher than t-table 1,9977. It means that there was any significant difference between experimental and control groups which was caused by Round Robin technique given to the experimental group.
