Abstract
This research was aimed at improving the students’ writing skills through the genre-based approach in grade XI/S3 of SMAN 1 Pleret in the academic year of 2012/2013. The study was action research that consisted of two cycles and was done in collaboration with the English teacher, the students and researcher’s colleague as colaborators. The research was carried out in May 2013. The subjects of the study were class XI/S3 students of SMAN 1 Pleret Bantul in the academic year of 2012/2013. The data were collected through observation, interviews, and test on the students’ performance using instruments of interview guideline, observation sheet and writing rubric. The data from the observation and interviews were analyzed qualitatively and the students’ test scores were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The validity used were democratic validity, outcome validity, process validity, catalytic validity and dialogic validity. The reliability used were time triangulation and investigator triangulation. The steps of the research were reconnaissance, planning, action and observation, and reflection. The results of the research demonstrate that the implementation of the genre-based approach was able to improve students’ writing skills. Students’ problems in writing can be diminished by implementing the stages in the genre-based approach. The building knowledge of the field and the modeling and deconstructing of the text stages improved the students’ vocabulary and knowledge on the topic and context of the text, and their knowledge and ability on the text type including the text structure and language features. The joint construction and the independent construction of the text stages improved the students’ ability in exploring ideas and developing them into a good text. Scores of the students’ performance also indicate improvement in the students’ writing skill. The students’ mean scores gradually increased from 55.53 in the pre-conditional test to 58.68 in Cycle I and to 61.53 in Cycle II.
