Listening as one of the skills of English is the important stage in acquiring a language. Considering the importance of listening comprehension, people try to find the way to improve listening comprehension by applying some techniques in teaching listening. Partial dictation is one of the techniques can be applied by the teacher. Partial dictation is a technique where subjects listen to recordings of material in the foreign language and are required to fill in the missing words in a written version of the recordings and the researcher uses recorded of BBC Learning English. Partial dictation makes the students and the teacher aware of the students' comprehension errors-phonological, grammatical, or both. The objective of this research is to find out whether or not there is any significant difference between the listening comprehension of the eighth grade students of SMP 2 Bae in the academic year 2011/2012 before and after being taught by using Partial dictation of an BBC Learning English. The researcher uses quasi experimental research design as the research method which consists of One Group Pre Test Post Test Design. The population of this research is all the students of eighth grade SMP 2 Bae in the academic year 2011/2012 which consists of 320 students. The sample of this research is VIII A of SMP 2 Bae in the academic year 2011/2012, which consists of 39 students in taking sample, the researcher uses cluster random sampling. To calculate and process the data, the researcher uses t-test for dependent sample. In finding a significant difference between two variables, the writer conducted t-test for dependent sample. The calculation of the collected data results that in the level significance 0.05 or 5% and degree of freedom (df) 38, the t observation (t0) is 3.301 and the t test (tt) is 2.021. It means that t0 > tt (t observation is higher than t table). It can be concluded that there was significant difference between the listening comprehension of the eighth grade students of SMP 2 Bae in the academic year 2011/2012 before and after being taught by using Partial Dictation of BBC Learning English. Based on the result of the research above, the researcher concludes that the use of Partial dictation of an BBC Learning English for the eighth grade students of SMP 2 Bae in the academic year 2011/2012 can improve their listening comprehension.
