CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

In this chapter, the researcher would like to present the introduction of the study. It consists of background of the study, reasons for choosing the topic, statement of the problem, objective of the study, significance of the study, limitation of the study, and outline of the study.

1.1 Background of the Study

Language is a communication tool to make an interaction among people. Language helps people to express their feelings, ideas, knowledges, and opinions. Nowadays, people are required to be able to speak not only in their first languages, but also in other languages to communicate with people around the world. However, each country has its own native language used as a means of communication among people. To be able to communicate with people all around the world, people need to master a language which is considered as an international languageboth in written and spoken.English, as an international language,is needed by many people in the world to communicate.

(16)

the statement above, English has a very important role as an international language. Indonesian government has chosen English as the first foreign language to be taught inschools. It has been taught as one of compulsory subjects in high schools.

Based on the current curriculum, English has been taught as one of compulsory subjects in senior high school level. In Indonesia, teaching and learning English should be based on the system which is arranged by government. It is named Kurikulum Tingkat Satuan Pendidikan (KTSP) or School Based Curriculum (SBC). According to School Based Curriculum (KTSP), learning English in senior high school level is targeted to reach the informational literacy of the students to be able to communicate both spoken and written. The ability to communicate both spoken and written is realized into four language skills. They are listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

Agung 2 Jepara, the researcher found students’ difficulties in teaching learning

process, especially in writing. The teacher only used blackboard, textbook, and pieces of paper while teaching writing. Students’ looked so bored with the teacher’s explanation.

Because of the difficulties, the researcher got an idea to use photographs. Since all of the students are familiar and almost all of them have Facebookaccounts, the researcher used photograph in Facebook as a medium in teaching writing in the classroom.

Based on the previous study held by Fatroni (2012), ”using 3D images to help students to be able to catch the idea by looking at the images that they should describe”. 3D images are effective since they can simulate the students’ interest in writing. Yoga (2012) states that “using blog in teaching writing descriptive text, the students had fun with the lesson”. Her finding was the students had good improvement after being taught by using blog.

Considering the previous studies, the researcher used photographs in Facebook to teach descriptive text to improve students’ writing skill in tenth year student of SMA Islam Sultan Agung 2 Jepara. The researcher used photographs in Facebook in order to help the students develop their writing skill, especially in writing descriptive text.

1.2 Reasonsfor Choosing the Topic

b) In learning writing descriptive text, students need to express their ideaswith visual imagination. So, the researcher chooses photograph to improve their imagination. They can explore their imagination by watching at the photograph and then express their ideas.

c) Almost all of students have Facebook account. It will be easier to learn writing descriptive text since Facebook forces them to write their feeling. In addition, accessing Facebook is very easy. They can use computer or phone.

1.3 Statement of the Problem

In this study, there is a problem that will be discussed as follows:

Is there any significant difference in the achievement between tenth students of SMA Islam Sultan Agung 2 Jepara who are taught by using photographs in Facebookand those who are taught by using conventional technique in mastering their writing descriptive text?

CHAPTER II

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

In chapter II, the researcher would like to present review of related literature. It consists of review of previous study, review of theoretical background, teaching writing in senior high school, teaching writing using photographs in Facebook in senior high school, and framework of the study.

2.1 Review of Previous Study

The researcher reviews two previous studies. The first study was conducted by Nur Anas Fatroni (2012). The study was entitled “The Use of 3D Images in

Improving Students’ Ability in Writing Descriptive Text (An Experimental

Research of the seventh Grade Students of SMPN 1 Ungaran in the Academic Year 2011/2012)”. The result of the study shows that using 3D images in teaching writing descriptive was effective since it could simulate the students’ interest in writing.

Second, the study of Rohmah Tri Yoga (2012) entitled ‘The Use of Blog to

(22)

From those reviews of previous studies above, using media in teaching writing descriptive text is very effective. The researcher would like to use photographs in teaching writing descriptive text. The researcher would like to use the things around students and give them new information in this world. Nowadays, many people use online network,especially social network, soheconducts a research about teaching writing descriptive text in different medium, i. e.Facebook.

2.2 Review of Theoretical Background

The researcher provides writing, descriptive text, and media discussions as the review of theoretical background.

2.2.1 Writing

To know the concept of writing, the researcher mentions definitions of writing, components of writing, and steps of writing.

2.2.1.1 Definitions of Writing

There are several definitions of writing that can be studied. Hyland (2004:5) states that “to get things done such as; describing something, telling a story, requesting

an overdraft, drafting an essay, and so on”. One must follows certain social conventions for organizing messages, and these conventions can be described and taught.

Meyers (2005:2) states that “writing is a way to produce language, which

(23)

9

discovering and organizing your ideas, putting them on paper, and reshaping and revising them”.

We can say writing as the most sophisticated skill because in writing itis not only about the meaning and structure but also punctuation, spelling, and capitalization. According to Vallete (1977:217), “the student learning a foreign language follows a series steps in developing the writing skill. People have used many tools for writing including paint, pencils, pens, typewriters, and computers. The writing can be formed on the wall of a cave, a piece of paper, or a computer screen”.

From definitions above, it can be concluded that writing is a way to produce language containing ideas, feelings, and experiences which through a long process with a specific purpose into written form and somehow can be applied into a medium.

2.2.1.2 Components of Writing

Writing is not only developing words into sentences, but it also deals with how to communicate ideas through written text. If a writer would like to produce a good writing, she/he needs to pay attention in components of writing which are stated by Boardman (2002: 31-44). They are:

(1) Topic sentences

(24)

10 (2) Supporting sentences

The supporting sentences support the topic sentence. The common ways to support a topic sentence are to use facts or statistics, example, and personal experiences.

(3) Coherence

All good paragraphs have some characteristics in common. The first of this is called coherence. A coherence paragraph is made up of sentences that are ordered according to a principle. The principle changes depending on the type of paragraph that you are writing. The three types of ordering are chronological ordering, spatial ordering, and logical ordering.

(4) Cohesion

One of the components of a good paragraph is cohesion. A paragraph has cohesion when all the supporting sentences “stick together” in their support

of the topic sentence. The methods of connecting sentences to each other are called cohesive devices. Five important cohesive devices are linking words, personal pronouns, definite articles, demonstrative pronouns, and synonyms. (5) Unity

(25)

11 (6) Completeness

Another component of paragraph is completeness. A paragraph is complete when it has all the major supporting sentences. It needs to fully explain the topic sentence and all the minor supporting sentences. It needs to explain each major supporting sentence.

2.2.1.3 Steps of Writing

They are generally six steps of writing that we need to reach a good product of writing which are stated by Meyers (2004:3-12) as follows:

(1) Explore ideas

Before starting to write, a writer has to explore as many ideas as possible since writing involves discovering ideas as much as possible, then he/she records it to save the idea. In this step, a writer has also to focus the ideas systematically by considering three questions: first, the subject which means the material that he/she intends to write about. Second, the purpose which means the writers’ intention from his/her writing toward the reader. Third is the audience; in this case is the reader. The audience influences the language used in conveying the writing subject and the purpose that a writer’s wants

to achieve. (2) Pre-write

(26)

12

three steps in pre-writing: first, brainstorming, i.e. listing thought as they come in mind. Second is clustering. In this step, a writer may write the subject in the middle of the page, circle it, and then write related ideas around the main circle. And free writing. In this step, a writer simply writes about the subject without worrying about the sentence structure, spelling, logic, and grammar.

(3) Organize

In this step, a writer begins to organize ideas after putting his/her ideas into words. This process involves selecting, subtracting, and adding ideas, and then outlining them.

(4) Write a first draft

In this step, a writer writes as fast as possible, as if he/she was speaking to his/her readers to record his/her thoughts. If an idea occurs to him/her that belongs earlier in the draft, make a note about it in the margin and write on a sheet of paper.

(5) Revise the draft

In this step, a writer may add or omit material, move and remove ideas that have no fitted, revise it several times until produce a good composition of the text. It is considering as the part of writing process that may take the most time.

(6) Produce the final copy

(27)

13

the original. All of its content develops the main point. Its sentences are clear and it has plenty of details.

2.2.2 Descriptive Text

In this part, the researcher mentions definition of descriptive text and features of descriptive text.

2.2.2.1 Definition of Descriptive Text

Descriptive is one genre which must be learned by students of senior high school. According to Anderson and Anderson (1997:48), “descriptive text is a text which

says what a person or thing is like”. Another definition about descriptive text

comes from Broadman (2002:6), he states that“descriptive text is kind of paragraph which is used to describe what something looks like. It means descriptive text can be formed into two types; they are speaking and writing description”. So, descriptive text is a kind of genre which is used to describe a particular person, place, activity, idea or thing which is drawn in word form both speaking and writing.

2.2.2.2 Features of Descriptive Text

(28)

14

G e r o t a n d W i gn e l l a l s o s t a t e t h a t t h e r e a r e f o u r s i gn i f i c a n t lexicogrammatical features of descriptive text. They are:

(1) Focus on specific participants.

(2) Use of attributive and identifying processes.

(3) Frequent use of epithets and classifiers in nominal groups. (4) Use of simple present tense.

2.2.3 Media

In this part, the researcher mentions the discussions of photograph and Facebook in teaching writing.

2.2.3.1 Photograph

Sudjana and Rivai (2007:71) state that “photograph is a kind of flat opaque

picture including picture and printed painting”. Photograph belongs to graphical media or two-dimensional media, which can also be transferred into transparent picture by using opaque projector.

2.2.3.1.1 Characteristics of Photograph

Sudjana and Rivai (2007:72-73) state that there are five characteristics of photograph. They are:

(1) Photograph is two-dimensional media and belongs to still opaque picture that is very important for the teaching purpose.

(29)

15

(3) Photograph focuses on topic and impression, thus photograph can be valuable media in teaching and learning process.

(4) Photograph enables students to observe object, person, place or situation presented in detail and individually.

(5) Photograph can be used in all subjects of study.

2.2.3.1.2 Criteria in Selecting Photograph as Media

According to Sudjana and Rivai (2007:72-73), there are criteria in selecting photograph as media for teaching. Those are:

(1) Photograph has to cover the instructional goal. (2) Photograph has to cover artistically sense properly.

(3) Photograph for teaching and learning process has to be clear and have proper size.

(4) Photograph should be valid.

(5) Photograph should be interesting for students.

2.2.3.2 Facebook

2.2.4 Teaching Writing in Senior High School

Senior high school students are expected to reach informational level because they are prepared to university. They are expected to produce knowledge using their own language. In this case, the students should be able to create a text using their own words. In senior high school, literacy is the focus of development of learning English in the curriculum. One of the goals is developing communication skill in English both spoken and written. It means that they have to master four skills; they are listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Students who have mastered those four skills are regarded to be able to use the language at production level.

There are 13 text types in senior high school curriculum which are learned by students. They are procedure, descriptive, recount, narrative, report, news item, analytical exposition, hortatory exposition, spoof, explanation, discussion, review, and public speaking. Descriptive is the one of text types which must be taught. The following are competencies in teaching writing descriptive text in senior high school in line with School Based Curriculum (KTSP):

Standard competence:

Mengungkapkan maknadalam teks tulis fungsional pendek dan esei sederhana berbentuknarrative, descriptive dan news item dalam konteks kehidupan sehari-hari.

Basic competence:

Mengungkapkan makna dalam bentuk teks tulis fungsional pendek (misalnya pengumuman, iklan, undangan dll.) resmi dan tak resmi secara akurat, lancar dan berterima yang menggunakanragam bahasa tulis dalam konteks kehidupan sehari-hari.

(31)

Teaching writing is not easy. There is a requirement for the teacher if he or she would like to teach writing. He or she must find out students’ background knowledge. It will not easy for them to find out. At least, they understand about elements in writing.There are five elements in writing should be mastered by students. They are:

1) Content

Content refers to the sentences that flow easily and not too hard to understand although it is a simple writing. The reasonable sentences that should be arranged into a good story.

2) Organization

It refers to reasonable sentences which support the topic of the writing. The students’ idea is well organized and can be understood by the reader.

3) Grammar

A text cannot stand without grammar. Characteristic of a good text also depends on its grammar. The employment of grammatical patterns in writing influences the meaning of what the writer will write.

4) Vocabulary

It is necessary to keep writing product clear, concise, and make sure that the ideas over in comprehensible form.

5) Mechanic

2.2.5 Teaching Writing Using Photographs in Facebook in Senior High

School

Internet is really important for our daily life. Almost all people are dependent on internet and cannot live without it especially in social media. By using social media, we caninteract among people around the world. People usually use social media to share pictures, videos, music, and also as a medium of writing among people.

Facebook and photograph can be an interesting medium for teaching. Photograph is more contextual and situational so that it can give real impressions of object, person, place, and situation outside the classroom and bring it up into the class to give students an interesting, meaningful, and playful experience. Students hopefully will be able to write descriptive text more clearly, concrete, and detail.

2.3 Framework of the Present Study

In this study, the subject of the research is the tenth grade students of SMA Islam Sultan Agung 2 Jepara. There are two classes as the sample. The first class is X1 as the control group and X3 as the experimental group. To begin the research, the writer would like to conduct try-out test to other class in order to measure the validity and reliability of the test. After the writer considers that the test is valid, he would use it to conduct pretest and posttest. Both will be conducted in written test form.

CHAPTER III

RESEARCH METHODOLOGIES

In this chapter, the researcher would like to present research design, subject of the study, instrument for collecting data, scoring technique, procedures for collecting data, and analyzing t-test

3.1 Research Design

The design of this research was experimental research. According to Arikunto (2002:3), “an experiment is the way in which a researcher creates a situation or an

event which is analyzed in order to find out the effect that it makes.” The

objective of this study is to examine whether the use of photographs in Facebook is effective to improve students’ writing or not. So, it is suitable for this study to

use the experimental design.

Based on the experimental research, the design of this study can be described in this pattern as follows:

Where:

E : Experimental group (EG) C : Control group (CG)

01 : Pretest for the experimental group E X

(35)

21 02 : Posttest for the experimental group 03 : Pretest for the control group

04 : Posttest for the control group

X : Treatment with photographs in Facebook

From the design above, the researcher defines the class X-3 as the experimental group (EG) and the class X-1 as the control group (CG). The pretest and posttest was given to both classes in the first and the last meeting.

3.2 Subject of the Study

The subject of the study consists of population, sample, and variables of investigation.

3.2.1 Population

According to Encyclopedia of educational evaluation as quoted by Arikunto (2006:115), it is stated that “population is defined as set (or collection) of all

elements possessing one more attributes of interest”. While Margono (2003:118) defines, “population as a complete set of individuals or subjects having common

observable characteristics”. The population could be all the individuals of a

particular type or more restricted part of the group. The objects in a population are investigated, analyzed, concluded and then the conclusion is valid to the whole population.

(36)

22 3.2.2 Sample

The research is conducted as a descriptive quantative research. Thus, the method used is numerical analysis to get the data. The design of this study is experimental research. In experimental research there are two groups, experimental group and control group.

According to Saleh (2001:33), “Sample is a part of the population which

functions as its representative. Sample is a group of people, objects, or places from which the data is collected”. The researcher took two of the classes as sample. The researcher did not choose the sample randomly, but the sample was selected by the writer based on their characteristics. The researcher took X-3 as the experimental group and X-4 as the control group. These classes were given English material by the same English teacher. The students of these classes had been studying English for the same period.

3.2.3 Variables of Investigation

To get the goal of the research, the writer tried to identify the variables. There are two variables for the research, dependent variable and independent variable. The dependent variable is variable that researcher observes and measures to determine the effect of the independent variable.

In this research, the dependent variable was the students’ improvement in

(37)

23 3.3 Instrument for Collecting Data

In a research, instrument is an important device to collect the data. The instrument was used to measure the students’ ability. In this study, there were three stages to

collect the data: pretest, treatment, and posttest. Before the test was given, the researcher gave try out test.

3.3.1 Try - Out

A test can be said as a good test if it is valid and reliable. So, before doing the test, the researcher gave try out test. Try out was necessary to measure validity and reliability of the test. As the result, try out was to prove whether the instrument was good or not. In this research, try out test was done once in other class. The respondents of the try out test were the students of class X-4 of SMA Islam Sultan Agung. The students were asked to make descriptive texts of their best friends in 50 minutes. The length of paragraph was about 15 until 20 sentences.

3.3.2 Criteria of the Test

A test can be said well if it demands some qualities such as validity and reliability.

3.3.1.1 Validity

Validity is one of necessary formulas to measure the instrument. Based on the statement of Arikunto (2006:168), “validity is the measurements that indicate the

validity level of instrument”. In this study, the researcher used try out test based

(38)

24 3.3.1.2 Reliability

Another characteristic of a good text is reliability. Based on the statement of Arikunto (2006:178), “reliability is determined by the carefulness of evaluation

instrument and important of reliability consistence, how far of the test or instrument can be believed”. It means the reliability of the test score will give the

same result when the test is used in different time. In this study, the researcher used interrater reliability. There were two raters. First rater was the researcher and the second one was the English teacher.

3.3.3 Pretest

There are two groups for doing experimental research. They are experimental group and control group. Both of groups were given different treatment but the same material. The experimental group was photograph in Facebook as treatment and for the control group was only taught in conventional teaching.

A pretest was given before the treatment. The pretest for both the experimental and control group was given on 28thApril 2013. There are 33 students for each class. The researcher came into the class and gave the instruction. The students were asked to write descriptive texts about their best friends in 50 minutes. The length of the paragraph was about 15 until 20 sentences.

2013. For the experimental group, the researcher used photographs in Facebook as media. The researcher gathered the students into one group in Facebook account. He put some materials in the group. The students of the experimental group also could do online for learning their materials by opening their Facebook account whenever they wanted. For the control group, the researcher only did conventional teaching. He only gave some materials about descriptive text. The students were not given photographs in Facebook as media.

3.3.5 Posttest

Posttest was the last step for collecting data in experimental research. It was held on 19th May 2013 for the control group and May 22nd 2013 for the experimental group. The test given was the same as the pretest.

3.5 Procedures of Collecting Data

Since this research used experimental research, there are three steps to collect the data: pretest, treatment, and posttest. Before the test was conducted, try out test was given to measure the test. The pretest was conducted before the treatment, while the posttest was given after the treatment. After that, the researcher calculated the differences between the mean score of the pretest and the posttest. Then, the researcher need to compare the differences to find out whether they are significant or not. The procedures of collecting data are as follows:

(1) Choosing the tenth grade students of SMA Islam Sultan Agung 2 Jepara in academic year 2012/2013 as the population of the study.

(2) Taking two classes which were class X-3 as experimental group and class X-1 as control group for the sample of this study.

(43)

29

(5) Administering posttest for both groups. For the experimental group, the researcher used photographs in Facebook as media. For the control group, conventional technique was used during the class.

(6) Analyzing the result.

3.6 Analyzing t-Test

In collecting the data to complete the study, the researcher collected the data and analyzed the following steps below:

(1) Tabulation of the data.

It includes scoring the test items of each student and arranging the scores into the rank order.

(2) Applying the appropriate formula for analyzing the data.

The obtained data were analyzed to get the final result. t-Test formula was used in the research to analyze the data. It showed the final result from both experimental and control groups.

Mx : the mean score of experimental group My : the mean score of control group

(44)

30 Ny : the number of students of control group

CHAPTER V

CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTIONS

In this chapter, the researcher would like to present conclusion and suggestions of the research.

3.1 Conclusion

According to the analysis, the researcher conducted experimental design. There was significant difference in the achievement in understanding in writing descriptive text for both experimental and control group. It can be seen from the final score of the each group. At the first, the average of pretest between the experimental and control groups were 66.69 and 65.15. Then after the students got the treatments, the score for experimental group became 74.36 and 70.15 for the control group. And another result can be seen from the t-test result. The t-test result showed that t-value was 3.12 and t-table for α = 5% was 1.67. It means that t-value is higher than the critical value. From the result, finally, the researcher concluded that there was a significant difference between experimental and control group.

describe. It will be easier for them to develop and gain their ideas by using photographs.

5.2 Suggestions

According to the conclusion above, the researcher would like to present following suggestions to be considered to improve the teaching of writing.

The students should encourage their English especially in writing in the daily lives. They should practice more and more. They should improve their writing by using some techniques to make it easier and fun in learning.

The teacher should be able to be as creative as possible in developing the teaching learning process. It is very important to use various methods in teaching writing for the students. The appropriate methods can make student more active and enthusiastic in the teaching learning process. Using media also help the students easy to accept the materials. Here, the teacher should be selective in choosing the media. Photographs in Facebook is an interesting medium to improve the students’ writing skill. Beside that, the students also can interact with

their friends in their Facebook account.

2. Instrument of Evaluation Descriptive text: Taj Mahal

TAJ MAHAL

Taj Mahal is regarded as one of the eight wonders of the world. It was built by Emperor Shah Jahan in the memory of his dear wife at Agra. Taj Mahal is a Mausoleum that houses the grave of Queen Mumtaz Mahal. The mausoleum is a part of a vast complex comprising of a main gateway, an elaborate garden, a mosque, a guest house, and several other palatial buildings. The Taj is at the farthest end of this complex, with the river Jamuna behind it.

The Taj stands on a raised, square platform (186 x 186 feet) with its four corners truncated, forming an unequal octagon. The architectural design uses the interlocking arabesque concept, in which each element stands on its own and perfectly integrates with the main structure. It uses the principles of geometry and symmetry of architectural elements.

Its central dome is fifty-eight feet in diameter and rises to a height of 213 feet. It is flanked by four subsidiary domed chambers. The four graceful, slender minarets are 162.5 feet each. The central domed chamber and four adjoining chambers include many walls and panels of Islamic decoration.

92 D. Learning Material

The girl is slim

My sister plays guitar

The sentences above use simple present tense. We usually use the simple present tense to express habitual or every day activities.

1. How do we make the Simple Present Tense?

Subject + auxiliary verb + main verb

Do Base

There are three important exceptions:

 For positive sentences, we do not normally use the auxiliary.

 For the 3rd person singular (he, she, it), we add s to the main verb or es to the auxiliary.

 For the verb to be, we do not use an auxiliary, even for questions and negatives.

(81)

93

Subject Auxiliary verb Main Verb + I, you, we, they like coffee.

He, she, it likes coffee. - I, you, we, they do not like coffee. He, she, it does not like coffee. ? Do I, you, we, they like coffee?

Does he, she, it like coffee?

Look at these examples with the main verb be. Notice that there is no auxiliary:

Subject Main Verb

+ I am Indonesian.

You, we, they are Indonesian. He, she, it Is Indonesian.

- I am not old.

You, we, they Are not old. He, she, it Is not old.

? Am I late?

Are you, we, they late? Is he, she, it late?

2. How do we use the Present Simple Tense?

We use the present simple tense when:

the action is general

(82)

94

the action is not only happening now

the statement is always true

John drives a taxi.

Past present future

It is John's job to drive a taxi. He does it every day. Past, present and future.

Look at these examples:

 I live in New York.

 The Moon goes round the Earth.

 John drives a taxi.

 He does not drive a bus.

 We meet every Thursday.

 We do not work at night.

 Do you play football?

Note that with the verb to be, we can also use the present simple tense for situations that are not general. We can use the present simple tense to talk about now. Look at these examples of the verb "to be" in the present simple tense - some of them are general, some of them are now:

Am I right? Tara is not at home.

You are happy.

Past present Future

(83)

95 Look at the table below:

Traditionally,adjectives are defined as words thatdescribe nouns or pronouns. When they describe nouns or pronouns,adjectives typically answer the following questions:

For example: tall man

Tall is an adjective describing the noun man.

Tall answers the question "which man?" or "what kind of man?"

Adjectives can be in two positions: 1. After the verbs: be, seems, and look.

Example:

 The lady is old.

 My father seems bored.
