The objectives of this study were: to find out the students’ achievement in using adjective, their ability in writing descriptive text, and whether there was any significant correlation between those two variables. The total number of sample was 24 students. The findings of this study showed that the students’ achievement in using adjective was categorized into good criteria. It could be seen from the result of the mean score of students’ achievement in using adjective, it was 76.96. For the students’ ability in writing descriptive text, the findings of the study showed that the result of the mean score was 76.75. Then, the findings for the correlation between students’ achievement in using adjective and students’ ability in writing descriptive text was 0.860 and the p-value (Sig. (2- tailed)) was 0.000. Meanwhile, the critical value in the table at significant (2- tailed) level 5% was 0.404. It meant that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted and the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected. Therefore, there was a positive correlation between students’ achievement in using adjective and students’ ability in writing descriptive text.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between students' listening achievement and their listening approach. The participants in this study were 11th graders. 97 students served as the study's sample population. The data were analyzed using Pearson's r correlation coefficients in this descriptive quantitative study. Data were gathered for this study using a listening test and a questionnaire. Students' listening techniques were discovered using a questionnaire, and their listening abilities were discovered through a listening exam. 28 questions about cognitive, metacognitive, and socio-affective strategies were included in the questionnaire that the students were required to complete. According to the study's findings, there is a high association between the use of cognitive methods and successful listening. The link between socio-affective variables and listening achievement was significant with moderate interpretation, as was the correlation between metacognitive approach and listening achievement. Students' listening strategies and listening achievement at the school exhibit a substantial association, with rxy of cognitive strategy showing > = 0.622, metacognitive strategy showing > = 0.525, and socio-affective strategy showing > = 0.415. As a result, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted and the null hypothesis (Ho) is disproved.
