This also causes if students who use the Mind Mapping technique get the t_obs of 3.43 points, which means that it increases more than t table 2.00. This has the effect that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) has been accepted and the null hypothesis (Ho) has been rejected. And this makes the reason for the increase in student achievement figures by using the Mind Mapping technique to write analytical analysis texts. So, it can be summarized that the Mind Mapping technique is very effective, appropriate, and easy to be applied by students who will create correct and directed analytical exposition text.
