| dc.description.abstract | Due to the complexity of writing, English teacher plays an important role in
selecting the teaching approach, technique, the materials and the media. To find
an effective way in teaching writing, an experimental research dealing with
Outdoor Language Learning (OLL) was essential to be conducted to know
whether or not there was a significant influence of OLL on high school students’
descriptive text writing achievement.
The research participants were the tenth grade students of SMA Negeri 1
Jenggawah in the 2016/2017 academic year. There were six classes and each
class contained 38-40 students. The two homogeneous classess were chosen based
on the result of homogenity test and determined as a control group and an
experimental group by lottery.
This research was designed as a quasi-experimental research with post-test
only design. Two classes were involved in this research, i.e. experimental group
was taught by using Outdoor Language Learning while the control group was
taught by using scientific approach of 2013 Curriculum. The post test was given
to both experimental and control group and taught using different instructional
treatments twice. Based on the calculation of independent sample t-Test by using
SPSS, the result showed that the the value of sig. (2-tailed) was 0.028 (less than
0.05). This means there was statistically different between control and
experimental classs. In other words, there was a significant influence of
implementing OLL in teaching descriptive text writing on students’ writing
achievement. | en_US |
