Saphira Mande, NIM: 2321009 “The Effect od using mind mapping technique towards the students’ writing ability in descriptive text at SMK N 2 Padang panjang”. A Thesis, State of Islamic University Bukittinggi 2026 Writing is one of the most important language skills that students need to master. However, many students still experience difficulties in generating ideas, organizing their thoughts, and developing descriptive texts effectively. Preliminary observation at SMKN 2 Padang Panjang indicated that many students had low writing ability because they found it difficult to express and organize their ideas into a well-structured descriptive text. Therefore, the Mind Mapping Technique was applied as an alternative teaching strategy to help students generate, organize, and develop their ideas more effectively in writing descriptive texts. This research employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design. The population of this research was all eleventh-grade students of SMKN 2 Padang Panjang. The sample consisted of two classes with a total of 60 students, including 30 students in the experimental class and 30 students in the control class, selected through purposive sampling. The instrument used in this research was a writing test administered as a pre-test and a post-test. The data were analyzed by using the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, Levene's Test of Homogeneity, Paired Sample t-test, and Independent Sample t-test through SPSS. The results of this research showed that the Mind Mapping Technique had a significant positive effect on students' writing ability in descriptive text. The Paired Sample t-test showed a significance value of 0.000 (p 0.05), indicating a significant improvement in students' writing achievement after the implementation of the Mind Mapping Technique. Furthermore, the Independent Sample t-test also showed a significance value of 0.000 (p 0.05), indicating a significant difference between the writing achievement of the experimental and control classes. Therefore, it can be concluded that the Mind Mapping Technique is effective in improving students' writing ability in descriptive text at SMKN 2 Padang Panjang.

Sefri Hanzalni: 2319107, “An Analysis of Lexical Error in the English Recount Text Written by 8th Grade Junior High School Students at SMP 2 Ampek Angkek”, A Thesis, State Islamic University of Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi, 2026. Lexical competence plays a crucial role in students’ writing ability, particularly in producing meaningful and accurate recount texts. However, preliminary research conducted at SMP 2 Ampek Angkek revealed that many eighth-grade students experienced difficulties in using English vocabulary appropriately when writing recount texts. Students frequently made errors in word choice, word formation, spelling, and collocation, which affected the clarity and accuracy of their written communication. This study aims to investigate the types of lexical errors and identify the factors causing these errors in students’ recount text writing. The study employed a qualitative descriptive research design. The data consisted of students’ recount texts and preliminary interview data obtained from the English teacher. Data were analyzed using the error analysis framework proposed by Ellis (1997) and James (1998), involving error identification, classification, description, and explanation of error sources. The preliminary findings indicate that students commonly produced lexical errors in the forms of formal errors, semantic errors, collocational errors, spelling errors, and misinformation errors. Based on the findings and data analysis, the results showed that students made errors in three types of errors namely formal mis-selection, formal mis-formation, and misinformation. From the frequency of each type of error, there were 70 errors of formal mis-selection, 67 errors of formal mis-formation, and there were 114 errors of misinformation which are the most dominant errors made by students. These findings highlight the importance of contextual vocabulary instruction and systematic lexical development in improving students’ writing proficiency and contribute to a better understanding of lexical challenges faced by Indonesian EFL learners.

English writing is a fundamental skill in the Indonesian education system, yet it remains a significant challenge for many learners, particularly regarding grammatical accuracy. Among the various grammatical components, the correct usage of English articles (a, an, and the) is notably difficult for Indonesian EFL learners because their native language lacks a direct equivalent, leading to frequent errors. This study was conducted at MTsN 3 Agam with the primary objective of identifying and classifying the specific types of article errors made by seventh-grade students in their descriptive writing tasks. By pinpointing these linguistic hurdles, the research aims to provide a clearer understanding of the interlanguage development of young learners and the specific areas where they require the most pedagogical support. The research employed a descriptive qualitative design, analyzing 27 writing samples produced by students of class VII.1. The data collection involved a writing task where students described their favorite people, places, or pets. The identified errors were systematically classified using the Surface Strategy Taxonomy proposed by Dulay et al. (1982). The analysis revealed a total of 27 article-related errors. The results showed that omission was the most frequent error type, occurring 13 times (48.1%), followed by misformation with 11 instances (40.7%), and addition with 3 instances (11.2%). Notably, no misordering errors were found. These findings indicate that students predominantly struggle with the obligatory nature of articles, often failing to include them where required or substituting them incorrectly. In conclusion, the study demonstrates that seventh-grade students at MTsN 3 Agam face substantial difficulties in mastering English articles, largely influenced by the absence of a similar system in the Indonesian language. The high prevalence of omission and misformation errors suggests that students have not yet fully internalized the semantic and syntactic constraints of article usage. Based on these results, it is recommended that English educators move beyond implicit exposure and provide more explicit, targeted instruction on articles. Incorporating varied practice sessions, such as worksheets and interactive games like Quizizz or Kahoot, can help reinforce these rules and improve students' overall writing proficiency.

ABSTRACT This research investigated the effect of using comic strips as instructional media on students’ writing ability in narrative texts at SMAN 1 Panyabungan. Writing is a productive skill that requires learners to generate and organize ideas coherently, and the use of visual media such as comic strips is believed to facilitate this process (Megawati & Anugerahwati, 2012). This study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design, involving two classes of the eleventh grade: XI1 as the experimental class and XI2 as the control class, each consisting of 22 students. The experimental class was taught by using comic strips, while the control class received conventional instruction. The data were obtained through pre-tests and post-tests assessing five components of writing: content, organization, vocabulary, language use, and mechanics. The results of the statistical analysis using SPSS V20 showed that the significance value (Sig. 2-tailed) was 0.000 0.05, indicating a significant difference between the two groups. The mean score of the experimental class increased from 65.95 to 80.82, while that of the control class rose from 56.18 to 70.14. It can be concluded that the use of comic strips had a positive and significant effect on students’ ability to write narrative texts, helping them to develop ideas, improve organization, and enhance their creativity. Therefore, comic strips are considered effective instructional media for improving students’ writing performance in English narrative text learning.

Tia Gustiani, 20223010, “The Correlation Among Writing Self-Efficacy, and Grammar Mastery Toward Writing Ability of Sixth Semester English Students”, Thesis, English Education Study Program, Faculty of Tarbiyah and Teacher Training, State Islamic University of Sjech M. Djamil Djambek, 2025 This study investigates the relationships between grammar mastery, writing self-efficacy, and writing ability among 76 sixth-semester English Education students at UIN Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi. A quantitative correlational design was used to determine whether students’ grammar skills and confidence in writing are linked to their actual writing performance. Data were collected through a writing self-efficacy questionnaire and documentation of students’ grammar test and writing scores from official academic records, ensuring reliable and objective measurement. The data were analyzed using Spearman’s Rho correlation coefficient. The results showed no statistically significant correlation between grammar mastery and writing ability (r = 0.017, p = 0.883), meaning that better grammar knowledge did not lead to better writing performance. Similarly, there was no significant correlation between writing self-efficacy and writing ability (r = 0.188, p = 0.105), indicating that students who felt more confident in their writing did not necessarily write better. These findings suggest that neither grammar mastery nor self-efficacy alone is a strong predictor of writing ability in this group of advanced EFL learners. Writing performance appears to be influenced by more complex factors beyond grammar and confidence. The study highlights the need for a broader approach to teaching writing, one that includes vocabulary, reading, organization, and feedback, rather than focusing only on linguistic accuracy or psychological factors in isolation.
