Based on the data, it was found that tobtained (3.511) was higher than ttable (1.966), and pvalue (0.000) was lower than αvalue (0.05) It meant that null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected and consequently the alternative hypothesis(Ha)was accepted. Hence, there was a significant difference in writing achievement between students who were taught through POWER strategy and that of those who were not.
