This study was an action research study. It was conducted in two cycles, from the 6th of August to the 22nd of September 2014. Each cycle consisted of three meetings. The steps of the research were reconnaissance, planning, action and observation, and reflection. The subjects of this research were 32 students of VIII E class, the English teacher, and the researcher. The data were in the form of qualitative data and also supported by quantitative data. The qualitative data were obtained by observing the teaching and learning process, interviewing the students and collaborators, holding discussions with the collaborators, and taking pictures of the teaching and learning process. Meanwhile, quantitative data were obtained through distributing questionnaires. The instruments used in this research were observation guide, interview guide, questionnaire and digital camera. The validity of the research was obtained through five validities namely, process validity, democratic validity, dialogic validity, catalytic validity, and outcome validity. The data were analyzed in five steps. They were assembling data, coding the data, comparing the data, building interpretations and reporting the outcomes. The results of the research indicated that the use of Facebook group, handouts, group quiz, and rewards effectively improved the writing learning process.
