The aims of the thesis are to find out: (1) the significant effect of LINCS strategy
on student’s vocabulary mastery (2) the significant effect of Story Innovation
strategy on student’s vocabulary mastery (3) the significant difference of student’s
vocabulary mastery between the students who were taught by LINCS strategy and
those who were taught by Story Innovation strategy (4) significant difference
between visual and auditory learners in their vocabulary mastery (5) significant
interaction between teaching strategy and student’s learning style on student’s

The method which was used in this research was quantitative by using the data that
were taken from two kinds of instruments. The first instrument was a questionnaire
to find out the students’ learning styles, whether they were auditory or visual
learners. The second instrument was a multiple choice–vocabulary test which was
built by the researcher by adapting from the existing vocabulary test. There were
three kinds of variable involved: independent variable (teaching strategy),
dependent variable (vocabulary mastery), and moderating variable (learning style).
The population of this research was the students of Al-Hamid Islamic Junior High
School. The technique which was used in taking the sample was cluster purposive
sampling. The instrument analysis that were done were the pre-requirement of
research analysis (normality and homogeneity test) and hypothesis testing using
two way ANOVA.
