Abstract

This paper is based on a research aiming to describe the effectiveness of Group Grid and Round Table technique in teaching writing descriptive text. By using a quasi-experimental design, the research involves the tenth grade students of SMA Taruna Nusantara Magelang in the academic year of 2016/2017. In this case, the experimental group is X IA 12 and the control group is X IA 10. The result shows that the mean score of the experimental group increases from 69.15 to 79.34 after several treatments applying the strategy. The t-test computation reveals that there is a significant difference between the two groups. It is proven by the tvalue (2.844) which is higher than the ttable (1.998). In addition, a questionnaire is administered to know the effect of implementing the technique to the students. The analysis shows that 59.37% of the students agree that the implementation of the strategy assists their comprehension and 31.25% of them even strongly agree towards the statement. Therefore, Group Grid and Round Table technique is proven an effective strategy in teaching writing descriptive text.

Paraphrasing activity allows the students to interpret what they have understoodfrom the text in reading activity. This study investigates the correlation of thestudents’ reading comprehension and their paraphrasing ability in narrative text.There are two hypotheses in this research; null hypothesis (Ho) and the alternativehypothesis (Ha). The null hypothesis says “There is no correlation between students’reading comprehension and their paraphrasing ability in narrative text”. Then, Hasays “There is a correlation between students’ reading comprehension and theirparaphrasing ability in narrative text”.The population of this study is the eleventh graders of SMAN 1 Ambarawa in theacademic year of 2016/2017. The students of XI MIPA 5 are taken as the samples.The design of this study is explanatory research design. The data are gained byadministering two kinds of tests; reading comprehension and paraphrasing tests.Those tests are administered twice by using two different texts. There are three mainprocesses in applying this method in the study; the use of the scatterplot, Pearsonproduct moment coefficient, and correlation coefficient interpretation. Scatterplotsdisplays that there is a positive linear relationship. Then, the data are calculated byusing the Pearson product moment to know the degree of relationship among thevariables. The results of the computation of correlation coefficient applied to thesample are 0.67 and 0.84. The consultation to the critical value of the r ProductMoment with 95% confidence level and the number of the subjects 32 is 0.349. Itmeans that the results obtained from the computation are higher than its criticalvalue. Next, the results of the computation of correlation coefficient are consulted tothe criteria of correlation coefficient interpretation. The interpretations of therelationship are substantial and high to very high. It can be concluded that there is asignificant positive relationship between students’ reading comprehension ability innarrative text (X) and their paraphrasing ability in narrative text (Y) on the eleventhgraders of SMA Negeri 1 Ambarawa in the academic year of 2016/2017.

The result of the analysis showed that the teachers used all of the teachers' questioning strategies and they posed critical questions. Teachers questioning strategies used by the teachers when posing critical questions were wait-time, repetition, paraphrasing, simplifying, and probing. The obvious strategy to elicit students’ responses toward critical questions was probing. In line with this, the teachers also combined the teachers questioning strategies with the skill of basic questioning to elicit students’ critical answers. The students didn’t perceive critical question as a threat, although it was difficult to answer. However, they perceived critical question as a challenge for them. It can be concluded that the students perceived critical question as a motivational question.
