Abstract
The purposes of the research were to know (1) the difference in students’ achievement between student who learnt using card and crossword puzzle techniques; (2) the difference in students’ achievement between students who had high and low social interaction; (3) the difference in students’ achievement between student who had high and low students’ prior knowledge; (4) the interaction between chemistry learning media and students’ social interaction towards student achievement; (5) the interaction between chemistry learning media and students’ prior knowledge towards student achievement; (6) the interaction between students’ social interaction and students’ prior knowledge towards student achievement; and (7) the interaction among chemistry learning media, students’ social interaction, and students’ prior knowledge towards student achievement. Experiment method used in this research. The population of the study was the tenth grade students of Madrasah Aliyah Mu’alimat NW Pancor in the academic year 2010/2011, consisting of eight classes .
