This research was to improve the prospective mathematics teachers’ writing skills in one of the universities in Indonesia. This was classroom-action research to improve students’ skills in writing research proposals. The quantitative and qualitative methods were used. Final year students were selected as the subjects.

The data were analyzed quantitatively to see improvements between cycles and learning completion.
