This study examines the use of one of social networks which is specifically designed for educational purpose, Edmodo, to increase the first graders’ skill in composing recount text. The finding of the study showed significant differences between the result of pretest and posttest. The mean of post-test scores (80.5) is larger than the mean of pre-test scores (71.3). From statistical calculation, it was confirmed that the value of   (-3.538) is larger than   (-2.306). Also, the way to test whether the null hypothesis could be rejected was by comparing p-value with the standard level of significance, 0.05. The convention to reject the null hypothesis is that when the p-value of the obtained statistics is less than 0.05 (Balnaves & Calputi, 2001). The finding showed that p-value was less than 0.05 (0.006 < 0.05). Thus, there was enough evidence indicating that the null hypothesis could be rejected, and it could be concluded that using Edmodo was effective to increase students’ writing skill in recount text.

Abstract

There are communication almost fail because of misunderstanding of the reference. Thus, explaining reference for its importance in communication is needed. Reference means pointing that is as an act in which a speaker or writer uses linguistic forms to enable a listener or reader to identify something. Reference can be divided into two: exophora and endophora. Furthermore, there two kinds of exophora: homophora and deixis. Deixis is a form of referring that is tied to the speaker´s context. In addition, deixis concerns the way in which languages encode or grammaticalize features of the context of utterance or speech event, and this also concerns ways in which in the interpretation of utterances depends on the analysis of that context of utterance.
