Evidenced by a significant 2-tailed level for the t-test, namely 0.005 <0.05, which means H1 is accepted and H0 is rejected. This means that there is a significant effect of using Collaborative Writing strategies on student achievement in writing recount texts. Therefore, it is suggested that English teachers apply a collaborative writing strategy to students' learning achievement in writing. Based on the observation of teaching experience it is said that students are more enthusiastic to participate in learning. They have the motivation to write. They are also able to create positive relationships when they work collaboratively in groups. That's because they have many pairs of eyes for writing correction. In addition, students are allowed to give and received direct feedback on the language used in their writing. Thus, the teaching-learning process becomes more interesting and students enjoy a better writing process in recount texts.
