Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui peningkatan signifikan pada kemampuan siswa dalam menulis recount texts dan untuk menyelidiki kesalahan tata bahasa siswa yang paling dominan berdasarkan Surface Strategy Taxonomy. Penelitian ini menggunakan one group pretest and posttest design. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa secara statistik, terjadi peningkatan yang signifikan pada nilai siswa. Hal tersebut dibuktikan dengan adanya hasil tes paired-sample dimana tingkat signifikansinya lebih rendah dari 0.05 yaitu 0.00. Selain itu, frekuensi kesalahan tata bahasa mengindikasikan bahwa omission merupakan jenis kesalahan tata bahasa yang paling sering terjadi pada tes akhir siswa. Hal tersebut dikarenakan omission mendominasi 45.3% dari jumlah total kesalahan. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa, teknik tersebut meningkatkan kemampuan menulis siswa. Maka dari itu, teknik tersebut mungkin bisa diterapkan pada proses pembelajaran. The objectives of this research were to find out whether there is any significant improvement on the students’ writing achievement of recount texts and to investigate the students’ most dominant errors based on Surface Strategy Taxonomy in terms of grammar.
