Abstract:
The objective of the research was to investigate the effect of applying dictogloss
teaching strategy on the students‟ achievement recount text. The objective of the
study was to investigate wheter dictogloss strategy significantly effect on the
students „ achievement in writing recount text. Dictogloss teaching strategy
helps the students to write independently and this strategy would help the
students to find their own topic and ideas about what they would write. The
population was the 2015/2016 students of SMA AR-RAHMAN MEDAN which
consisted of 60 students in two classes. They were divided into two groups: 30
students for experimental group then 30 students for control group. The
experimental group was given treatment by dictogloss teaching strategy and
control group was taught by analysis control model. The instrument of the
reseach was an written test. To know the students‟ achievement in writing there
were some criteria as follows: Content, organization, vocabulary, language use
and mechanics. The t-test, formula was implemented to find out the t-observed
value of both groups as the basis to test hypotesis of this reseach. The result of
this reseach showed that the t-observed value was greater than the t-table in
which tobs was 2.40 and ttable 1.6. It shows that tobs>ttable (2.40 > 1.6). The
hypotesis was accepted. It means that there was any significant effect of
applying dictogloss teaching strategy on the students‟ achievement in writing
recount text.
