Abstract

The objective of this study is to find out whether there is a significant difference in students’ writing skill between the students taught using communicative cartoon movies and those who are taught without using communicative cartoon movies. This study involved 60 students of second grade of SMPN I Arjosari in the academic year of 2011/2012 that were divided into two groups: class VIII A as the control group and class VIII H as the experimental group. The instrument for collecting data was an essay type test consisting two tasks in which the topics are based on the basic competencies. The data were in the forms of pre-test and posttest scores. The pre-test was given to both groups before the treatment, and the post-test was given at the end of the treatment. During this study, the students of the experimental class were taught using communicative cartoon movies, while the students of the control class were taught using conventional media. The data were analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistics. The test of normality and homogeneity were done before the test of the hypothesis employed. The data of both pre-test and post-test from the control and experimental classes were also compared. The result of the descriptive statistics of the post-test shows that the mean value of the experimental class is 76.73 and it is categorized into good category and that of the control group was 70.37, and it is also categorized into good category. However, the mean value on the writing skill test of the experimental group is higher than that of the control group. Moreover, the result of the t-test shows that the value of significance is lower than the significance level of this study, i.e. 0.000 < 0.05. It means that there is a significant difference in writing skill between students who are taught using communicative cartoon movies and students taught without communicative cartoon movies. So it can be concluded that communicative cartoon movies give good effects on the improvement of students’ writing skill.
