Many students faced difficulties in learning English, especially in writing.
Considering the difficulty that the students had, the researcher decided to find a way
to solve this problem. One of the techniques that could be used was giving revision
and editing process on students’ writing. This technique can support the writing skill
in aspects of content, grammar, vocabulary, organization, and mechanics. Giving
revision and editing process has never applied by the English teacher of SMPN 1
Tempeh. That is why; the researcher is interested in conducting this research.
This research was conducted to investigate the effect of Giving Revision and
Editing Process on the Eighth Grade Students’ Writing Achievement at SMPN 1
Tempeh in the 2012/2013 academic year. The population of this research was all of

research respondents were determined by analyzing the students’ scores of
homogeneity test by using ANOVA formula. Based on the result of ANOVA, the
population of the research was heterogeneous, so that two classes that had the closest
mean score were chosen as the respondents of the research. The number of the
respondents was 64 students, consisting of 32 students of grade VIII G as the
experimental group taught writing by giving revision and editing process, and 32
students of VIII F as the control group taught writing by using conventional
