Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of integrating the Mind Mapping model through the Canva application in improving students’ recount text writing skills at SMKN 1 Kediri. Writing recount texts plays a vital role in language learning, as it enables students to narrate personal experiences in a structured and chronological way. However, many vocational students struggle with limited vocabulary, poor text organization, and low confidence in writing. To address these issues, this research employed a quasi-experimental design using pre-test and post-test methods in two eleventh-grade classes. One class was taught recount writing using manual mind mapping, while the other applied Canva-based digital mind mapping. Students’ works were assessed using the COVLM rubric (Content, Organization, Vocabulary, Language, and Mechanics), and the data were analyzed through t-tests and N-Gain. The findings indicate that although both groups improved, the Canva-based group showed significantly higher gains in organization, engagement, and writing quality. Students also demonstrated greater enthusiasm and confidence when using digital tools. The study concludes that Canva-based mind mapping is more effective than manual techniques in enhancing recount writing skills and can serve as an innovative strategy for EFL classrooms.
