The samples were taken from 25 students of experimental group (class XI MIA-1) and 25 students of control group (class XI MIA-3). The instrument of this research was a writing test. T-test was used to analyze the data collected in this research. The result of T-test indicated thatsig (2-tailed) of the experimental class (0.000) was lower than sig  or tobservedwas higher than ttable (). While sig (2-tailed) of the control class (0.000) was lower than sig  or tobservedwas higher than ttable(. It can be concluded that the students who are taught by using the Fishbone method have higher results than the students who are taught by using the conventional teaching method.
