The formula is the following: The average score of pre-test = ∑Students’ Score X 100 ∑ Students = ∑ 1426 X 100 ∑ 21 = 64. 571 The formula used for computing the mean was as follows: M = ∑x n Where: M : The mean ∑x : The sum of the item scores, and n : The number of the students. 63 Table 4.3 The Result of the Students’ Achievement in the First Cycle No Students Code Component of Writing Scoring Score C O V LU M 1 A - 01 22 17 17 19 3 78 2 A - 02 27 18 18 18 3 84 3 A - 03 29 19 20 15 4 87 4 A - 04 14 18 15 15 2 64 5 A - 05 27 18 18 18 1 82 6 A - 06 26 18 18 18 1 81 7 A - 07 25 17 20 17 1 80 8 A - 08 27 18 18 21 4 88 9 A - 09 25 18 17 17 1 78 10 A - 10 27 17 17 21 1 83 11 A - 11 21 17 17 17 1 73 12 A - 12 14 19 17 17 1 68 13 A - 13 22 18 14 16 1 71 14 A - 14 27 18 17 18 2 82 15 A - 15 24 19 17 20 3 83 16 A - 16 29 19 17 22 2 89 17 A - 17 29 19 19 22 4 93 18 A - 18 28 18 17 20 2 85 19 A - 19 23 17 16 18 1 75 20 A - 20 26 17 17 20 1 81 21 A - 21 27 18 18 21 2 86 ∑ 22 519 377 364 390 41 1691 Mean 24.714 17.952 17.3333 18.571 1.95238 80.52381 The average score of the first cycle = ∑Students’ Score X 100 ∑ Students 64 = ∑ 1691 X 100 ∑ 21 = 80. 52 Table 4.4 The Result of the Students’ Achievement in the Second Cycle Post-test No Students Code Component of Writing Scoring Score C O V LU M 1 A - 01 22 17 17 21 4 81 2 A - 02 27 18 18 20 4 87 3 A - 03 29 19 20 16 4 88 4 A - 04 14 18 15 17 2 66 5 A - 05 27 18 18 19 2 84 6 A - 06 26 18 18 19 2 83 7 A - 07 25 17 20 20 3 85 8 A - 08 27 18 18 22 5 90 9 A - 09 25 18 17 19 4 83 10 A - 10 27 17 17 21 2 84 11 A - 11 21 17 17 17 2 74 12 A - 12 14 19 17 17 1 68 13 A - 13 22 18 14 16 2 72 14 A - 14 27 18 17 18 4 84 15 A - 15 24 19 17 20 4 84 16 A - 16 29 19 17 23 4 92 17 A - 17 29 19 19 24 5 96 18 A - 18 28 18 17 21 3 87 19 A - 19 23 17 16 18 1 75 20 A - 20 26 17 17 20 1 81 21 A - 21 27 18 18 21 3 87 ∑ 21 519 377 364 409 62 1731 Average Score 24.71428 17.95238 17.33333 19.47619 2.95238 82.42857 65 The average score the third activity = ∑Students’ Score X 100 ∑ Students = ∑ 1731 X 100 ∑ 21 = 82. 43
