The normality test shows that the data are normally distributed. The homogeneity test of variance between groups used the Levene's Test of Equality of Error Variances. The students' problem-solving ability is found to be increased based on the average pretest score of 59.66 and the average posttest score of 82.41. The hypothesis test was done by using the t-test, and the results indicate that implementation of Teams Games Tournament method has a significant influence on the problem-solving ability of the Introduction to Accounting 1 students.
