dc.description.abstract | Considering to the result in the first cycle, the researcher and the English
teacher discussed together in finding the possible problems and made some revisions
for the next lesson plan that would be applied in Cycle 2. The result of the
observation done in the second cycle was 77.14% (Meeting 1) and 88.57% (Meeting
2) of 35 students were actively involved in the teaching and learning process.
Though, the result of writing test in the Cycle 2 was 85.17% of 35 students
successfully achieved the standard minimum score that is 75. It means that the result
of the observation and writing test in Cycle 2 successfully achieved the target of this
classroom action research. Thus, the research stopped.
Based on the result gained in the both cycle, it could be concluded that the use
of realia as teaching aid in teaching writing of descriptive paragraph could improve
Class VII-A students’ achievement and their active participation. Therefore, it is
suggested for the English teacher to use realia to teach writing or even the other skills
or/and language components. Realia was proved had many advantages as the media
in the teaching and learning process. At last, for the further researcher, the result of
this research could be used as a reference to conduct the similar research or the other
designs of the research. | en_US |
