Abstract

In learning descriptive text, the students may be confused what they want to write because they didn’t have idea even though the teacher has been given the object. Therefore, in this study, the researcher will try to apply mind mapping technique. This technique is expected to solve the difficulty of students in writing descriptive text. The result of the research showed that the students’ mean before treatment was 51, 10. And the students’ mean after the treatment was 67, 10. The significant level two tails is 0, 00 and the standard level of significant is 0, 05. By comparing the significant level and the standard level significant, the researcher got calculation. It is known that the significant level two tails is < the standard level significant (0, 00< 0, 005).  Because the significant level two tails is < the standard level significant, it can be concluded that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted and the null hypothesis is rejected. It means that there is significant different score in writing descriptive text before being taught using mind mapping technique and after taught using mind mapping technique. The conclusion is mind mapping technique is improving students’ achievement in writing descriptive text. Finally, it can be concluded that mind mapping can be applied of teacher during teaching and learning process.

Abstract

In business and human resource management, mentoring has been acknowledged as an effective way to develop career and achievement. This may be true to English teaching. Mentoring can be used as an alternative strategy to help students improve their language proficiency.   English Department of IAIN Tulungagung possesses unique characteristic since it is a non-Islamic study which is run by an Islamic institute. Its unique characteristic lies on the number of the Islamic content courses, of which proportion is much bigger comparing to the same kinds of department which is run by non-Islamic universities. This causes to the less credit of English skill and content courses offered to the students. To meet the students’ need of a good proficiency at English skills, especially speaking, any effort must be conducted. One of the proposed alternatives is conducting a peer mentoring. This article proposes and discusses a model of peer mentoring program to improve the English students’ speaking ability. The peer mentoring model is selected since it gives fruitful benefits to the junior students as the mentees, the senior students as the mentors, and the faculty members or the English department lecturers as the supervisors.
