Abstract

The objective of this study was to improve the writing ability of the students of grade VII SMPN 2 Playen through cooperative learning strategy in the academic year of 2013/2014. This research was categorized into action research. The data were collected in two forms, qualitative and quantitative data. The qualitative data were collected by observing the teaching learning process and interviewing the students while the quantitative data were obtained by conducting pretest and posttest for the students. The data from the observation and interview were analyzed by making qualitative descriptions while the data from the pretest and posttest were analyzed by comparing the mean score of the students’ writing scores. There were five validities that were used. They were democratic validity, outcome validity, process validity, catalytic validity, and dialogic validity. The research results show that the students’ writing skills improved through cooperative learning strategy. According to the result of the tests, the students made a better improvement in all aspects. The most improvement made by the students was in mechanics aspect and the least improvement was in content aspect. The least improvement in content aspect was not because the students were low in this aspect, but they were actually mastered this aspect before.
