ABSTRACT

Wulandari, Dewi. 2011. The Ability of Writing Analytical Exposition Text of the

Eleventh Grade Students of SMA N 2 Kudus in the Academic Year

2011/2012 Taught by Using LEET (Label, Explanation, Example and

Tie-back). Skripsi. English Education Department. Teacher Training

and Education Faculty of Muria Kudus University. Advisors: (i) Dra.

Sri Endang Kusmaryati, M. Pd. (ii) Mutohhar, S. Pd, M. Pd.

Keywords: Writing, Analytical Exposition Text, LEET

Writing is usually considered as the most difficult skill to master for the

students who are learning English. It has many complex processes such as

prewriting, drafting, editing, and revising. Based on the KTSP (school based

curriculum), the most recent curriculum used in schools in Indonesia, takes the

genre approach. One of the genres introduced in the eleventh year of senior high

school is analytical exposition. In fact, the writer found some problems in

conveying the English material to the students. Besides structure and vocabulary,

the students get difficulties in generating idea. Because of those, an effort done to

solve the problem is by using LEET. LEET can help the students to organize their

thoughts. It is effective way to improve the ability in writing analytical exposition

text.

The purposes of this study are to find out, first, the ability in writing

analytical exposition text of the eleventh grade students of SMA N 2 Kudus in the

academic year 2011/2012 who are before being taught by using LEET. The

second, the ability in writing analytical exposition text of the eleventh grade

students of SMA N 2 Kudus in the academic year 2011/2012 who are taught by

using LEET. The third is to find out whether there is significant difference

between the ability in writing analytical exposition text of the eleventh grade

students of SMA N 2 Kudus in the academic year 2011/2012 who are before and

after being taught by using LEET.

Subject of this research were eleventh grade students of SMA N 2 Kudus

in the academic year 2011/2012 with the number of students was 32 students from

the population 298 students chosen randomly. The design of this research is

experimental research. The instrument used to collect the data is written test.

The result of this study shows that the students’ ability in writing analytical

exposition text before being taught by using LEET is fair (Mean 69.53 and

Standard deviation 5.4). Meanwhile, the students’ ability in writing analytical

exposition text after being taught by using LEET is good (Mean 77.97 and

Standard deviation 5.82). From this data result, it can be shown that the score of

post test is higher than pretest. The result of t-observation is higher than t-table

that uses level of significant 5% (11.43>2.04).

Based on the findings some recommendations are proposed. English teacher should use LEET as prewriting technique in process of learning English.

The writer also recommends the students to apply LEET to help them improving

their writing ability.

ABSTRAKSI

Wulandari, Dewi. 2011.Kemampuan Menulis Teks Analytical Exposition pada

siswa kelas XI SMA N 2 Kudus Tahun Pelajaran 2011/2012 Diajar

Menggunakan LEET (Label, Explanation, Example dan Tie-back).

Skripsi. Program Studi Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris, Fakultas Keguruan

dan Ilmu Pendidikan Universitas Muria Kudus. Pembimbing: (i) Dra.

Sri Endang Kusmaryati, M. Pd. (ii) Mutohhar, S. Pd, M. Pd.

Kata Kunci: Menulis, Teks analytical Exposition, LEET

Menulis dianggap sebagai kemampuan yang paling sulit dikuasai oleh

siswa yang belajar bahasa inggris. Terdapat banyak proses yang kompleks dalam

menulis seperti tahapan sebelum menulis, draf, edit dan revisi. Berdasarkan KTSP

(Kurikulul Tingkat Satuan pendidikan), kurikulum yang baru-baru ini paling

banyak digunakan di sekolah-seekolah di Indonesia yang memakai pendekatan

jenis teks. Salah satu jenis teks yang diajarkan di kelas XI adalah analytical

exposition. Pada kenyataanya, penulis menemukan beberapa masalah dalam

penyampaian materi kepada siswa. Selain tata bahasa dan kosakata, siswa

kesulitan mengembangkan ide. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan usaha untuk mengatasi

masalah ini yakni dengan menggunakan LEET. LEET dapat digunakan untuk

mebantu siswa mengorganisasikan pemikiran mereka. LEET merupakan cara yang

efektif untuk meningkatkan kemampuan menulis teks analytical exposition.

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui: pertama, kemampuan

menulis teks analytical exposition siswa kelas XI SMA N 2 Kudus tahun pelajaran

2011/2012 yang diajar sebelum menggunakan LEET. Kedua adalah kemampuan

menulis teks analytical exposition siswa kelas XI SMA N 2 Kudus tahun pelajaran

2011/2012 yang diajar menggunakan LEET. Ketiga adalah apakah ada perbedeaan

yang signifiksn antara kemampuan menulis teks analytical exposition siswa kelas

XI SMA N 2 Kudus tahun pelajaran 2011/2012 yang diajar sebelum menggunakan

LEET dan setelah menggunakan LEET.

Subjek dari penelitian ini adalahsiswa kelas XI SMA N 2 Kudus tahaun

pelajaran 2011/2012 dengan jumlah siswa 32 dari 298 siswa yang dipilih secara

acak. Desain dari penelitian ini adalah penelitian eksperimental. Alat yang

digunakan untuk mengumpulkan data adalah tes tertulis.

Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa kemampuan siswa dalam

menulis teks analytical exposition sebelum menggunakan LEET adalah cukup

(Mean 69,53 and Standard deviation 5,4). sedangkan hasil kemampuan siswa

dalam menulis teks analytical exposition setelah menggunakan LEET adalah

bagus (Mean 77,97 and Standard deviation 5,82). berdasarkan hasil data, dapat di

ketahui bahwa nilai posttest lebih tinggi daripada pretest. Hasil dari t-observasi

lebih tinggi daripada t-tabel dengan taraf signifikan 5% (11,43>2,04).

Berdasarkan hasil yang telah dibahas, beberapa rekomendasi disarankan. Guru bahasa Inggris seharusnya menggunakan LEET sebagai tteknik prewriting

dalam pembelajaran. Penulis juga merekomendasikan siswa untuk

mengaplikasikan LEET guna meningkatkan kemampuan menulis mereka.
