This study is entitled “An Analysis of Students’ Grammatical Error in Argumentative Writingâ€. The objective of this study is to identify what types of grammatical errors mostly made by students in argumentative writing based on Dulays’s surface strategy taxonomy (1982). The students sometimes make errors on the use of grammar when they produce an English writing, also in argumentative writing. It is because Indonesian and English have their own grammatical system. In order to obtain valid findings, qualitative method was used in this study. Six (6) argumentative writing were collected from 6 students in the second semester. Based on the error analysis conducted, the researcher found that errors regarding auxiliary and wrong form of words were the most dominant errors in misformation which consisted of 22 errors. Then it is followed by omission errors consisted of 6 errors and the dominant grammatical error done by the students was omitting the auxiliary. Addition and misordering were only found 1 error from each of them. The findings indicate that the students have difficulties in using correct form, especially in misformation of suffix –s/ -es/ -ed/ -ing. This problem may occur due to their lack of knowledge of English grammatical rules.

Unreached agreement on the educational goals often arises among stakeholders due to the fact that most of the program goals were designed intuitively by either the instructors or institution without taking into account the learners‟ needs and the larger context in which the program takes place.

More comprehensive aspects of the factor are recommended to be explored in further research.

Following the curriculum 2013’s demand that students are required to be able to deliver ideas by considering the context, this study is an attempt to analyze the student’s recount texts based on Halliday’s theory of transitivity. To achieve this aim, this study employed a qualitative research approach with a case study design. Specifically, six selected students’ recount texts were chosen to be analyzed. The analysis focuses on types of processes, participants, and circumstances. The result reveals that some of the students focused on describing places (relational process) instead of retelling the activities, meanwhile others have used the material process as the most dominant type of process yet did not evaluate the events (mental process). Therefore, text models, explicit teaching, as well as effective corrective feedback, are the alternatives to be taken into account in improving their capacities in writing this simplest text; recount text.
