The population was the students of grade X consisting of 60 students. The sample was selected by applying cluster random sampling technique.

Class X-mia consisting of 30 students was the control group taught by conventional strategy. The instrument used to collect the data was writing test. The result of the data analysis by applying t-test formula showed that t-obs value was higher than t-table value (t-obs > t-table = 3.747 > 2.660).
