Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of using the Picture Word Inductive Model (PWIM) on the students' achievement in writing. This research was conducted at SMP Muhammadiyah 05 Medan, Jl. BromoGg. Aman No. 38 Medan Denai. The population in this study were students of class VIII consisting of two classes, namely class VIII A and class VIII B with a total of 60 students. The sample of this study consisted of 30 students taken by using purposive sampling. Classes are divided into one group, namely the experimental group used in one group pretest-posttest. The experimental group was taught using the Picture Word Inductive Model (PWIM). The research instrument was a written test (pretest-posttest). The results showed that the average value of students before using the Picture Word Inductive Model (PWIM) was 58.4 and after using the Pictture Word Inductive Model (PWIM) the average value of students increased to 82.5. After collecting data using the T-test formula and significance level = 0.05. The result shows that the tobserve is 8.22 and the ttable is 1.70 with degree of freedom (df) = N-2 (30-2) = 28. The fact showed that tobserve was higher than ttable or in other words Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. The difficulty of students in writing descriptive text Using Picture Word Inductive Model (PWIM) is the low vocabulary students have so that students find it difficult to express objects that they find based on the pictures given by researchers and many students who don't have a dictionary . This causes students to often ask researchers, the English of the vocabulary they find. It can be concluded that there was a significant effect of using Picture Word Inductive Model (PWIM) on the students' achievement in writing
