Abstract

This research was intended to analyze the effect of mind mapping towards students writing skill at the second semester students of FPBS IKIP Mataram in academic year 2015/2016. This study was quasi experimental research, where the sample was cluster randomly selected with the total number of sample was 65 students which were divided into 2 classes; 29 students were in the control group and there were 36 students belong to experimental group. In order to collect the research data, the writer used writing test to comprehend the students’ ability in managing text based on mind mapping concept. After the data was obtained, then it was analyzed by applying descriptive statistical analysis and inferential analysis. Regarding to the data analysis it was found that the students’ ability before treatment was 69.72 in the significant level 95%. On post-test data analysis, the students mean writing ability increased into 77.22. The inferential analysis or hypothesis testing also proved that the t-test was higher than t-table in the significant level 95% (α =0.05) and degree of freedom 63 (4.158 > 2.000) with ρ value (sig.) 0.00 < 0.05. It was clearly claimed that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) which stated that mind-mapping was effective towards students writing at second semester students of FPBS IKIP Mataram in academic year 2015/2016 was accepted and the null hypothesis (Ho) that said main-mapping is not effective toward students writing at second semester students of FPBS IKIP Mataram in academic year 2015/2016 was rejected. Those data evidently proved that mind mapping was effective towards students writing especially at second semester students of FPBS IKIP Mataram in academic year 2015/2016.

Abstract

Reading is still considered as a difficult skill to be taught and learnt, some students have difficulties in comprehending the text and reading also regarded as passive activities instead of active activity. This Research is aimed to know the effect of collaborative strategies towards students' learning activities and reading comprehension. This research is quasi-experimental pre-test post-test design. The data were analyzed using paired samples, independent test and correlation.  The result proved that the experimental post-learning activities are higher than pre-activities (83.27 > 61.20) and ttest 16.434. The independent test also clarified that the experimental group performed greater learning activities t (5.322 > 2.000). In Reading, the experimental post-test mean score is higher than pre-test (59.44 > 47.41), and ttest (4.237 > 2.021). The independent samples test confirmed that the experimental group ttest is higher than ttable. (3.777 > 1.980). Meanwhile the correlation analysis proved that rtest is smaller than rtable (0.134 ≤0.199) very low category. It can be concluded that collaborative strategies are effective towards students' learning activities and reading comprehension, although there is no correlation between learning activities and reading comprehension.
