Abstract

Penelitian ini adalah penelitian eksperimen yang menginvestigasi perbedaan signifikan dalam kompetensi menulis siswa dengan membandingkan kelas dengan strategi DEFENDS dan kelas dengan strategi PLEASE. Untuk bisa menjalankan penelitian ini, siswa kelas 7 di SMPN 2 Singaraja dipilih untuk digunakan sebagai sample. 2 kelas diberikan perlakuan yang berbeda dengan mengimplementasikan DEFENDS and PLEASE strategy. Pre Test dan Post Test Non Group Design diimplementasikan dalam penelitian ini. Data mengenai kompetensi menulis siswa dikumpulkan melalui post test. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan dalam hal kompetensi mengajar antara murid yang diajar dengan strategi DEFENDS dan kelas yang diajar dengan strategi PLEASE. Ini dapat dilihat dari Sig (2-tailed) yang dibawah 0.05 yang berarti kompetensi menulis siswa dengan strategi DEFENDS (76.35) lebih tinggi dari strategi PLEASE (70.27). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa strategi DEFENDS lebih efektif digunakan dalam mengajar menulis, kususnya dalam menulis teks deskripsi.
