and 6 basic feedback of eighth group. There were no elaborated feedbacks or basic feedback from other group provided. There were 6 elaborated feedback and
3 basic feedback from ninth group presented on table. There were no elaborated feedbacks or basic feedback from other group provided. The last one was the tenth
group provided 11 elaborated feedbacks and 8 basic feedbacks provided on table. The next table presented overall distribution of elaborated feedback and basic
feedback. There were 92 elaborated feedbacks and 63 basic feedbacks of group in pretest. Besides, there were 18 elaborated feedbacks and 6 basic feedbacks from
other group in pretest. Overall there were 110 elaborated feedbacks and 69 feedbacks of group and excluded group. There were 179 both elaborated
feedbacks and basic feedbacks provided in pretest. In addition, there were 86 elaborated feedbacks and 60 basic feedbacks of group in pretest. Moreover, there
were only 2 elaborated feedbacks and 1 basic feedback presented by other group. In sum, there were 88 elaborated feedbacks and 61 basic feedbacks presented by
participant in group and excluded group. Total elaborated feedback and basic
feedback of group and excluded group in postest was 149. The students’ presented
feedback in many aspects. There were some students mentioned about grammatical error, content, spelling, tenses, plagiarism and many more.
To unite the reliability of the research the researcher connected the reliability of instrument and data. The reliability of instrument used is analytic scoring
rubric. Moreover, inter-rater reliability is done to ensure that the rubric is reliable. The result is showed that in the pretest mean score calculate by scorer 1 and 2
were 72.432 and 71.838. In addition, postest mean score calculate by scorer 1 and 2 were 76.378 and 75.784. The data showed that there was no significant
difference between provided by scorer 1 and 2. It means that the analytical rubric used is reliable because the calculation produced using the rubric by different
scorer was consistent. The calculation of students’ gained score is provided in
Appendix. In addition, the validity used is content validity. It refers to the appropriateness
of instrument towards what should be measured. In making sure the instrument is valid,
he researcher conducted written test to examine student’s writing skill. Moreover, students’ writing is published in blog to create blogging environment.
The researcher required students to create chosen blogging platform, Blogger, to create blogging activity. The activity of providing feedback is also concluded in
blogging activity. To ensure the instrument and the data is valid, the validity of data is required. To see the appropriateness, the researcher set checklist between
competence standard listed from lesson plan and the data that produced. The checklist box can be seen below.

Meanwhile, before composing the hypothesis the researcher calculate the normality which shown on table 4.30 to 4.33. The aim of this test was to ensure
that the data is normally distributed. The result of normality can been by
comparing the value of L
value
to L
table
of Kolmogrov-Smirnov. The next test is homogeneity test which provided on table 4.34 and 4.35. The purpose of the test
is to see whether the data is homogeneous or heterogeneous. The researcher used SPSS to calculate the normality and homogeneity score. The result of normality
and homogeneity test showed that the data normally distributed and homogeneous. Both the data of postest in experiment class also showed that they
were distributed normally. According to the criteria of the test, it can be seen in the result that L
value
post-test L
table
0.200 0.224. It means that all of postest data in both scorer 1 and scorer 2 data were distributed normally. The test of
homogeneity test was the next test the researcher done. The result of the pretest of homogeneity test is significant value is higher than
0.05 0.025 0.05. It means that the data were homogenous. The result of postest of homogeneity test is
significant value is higher than 0.05 0.034 0.05. It means that the data were
homogenous. The final calculation was determining the hypothesis. This is the main
calculation to answer the research hypothesis, was there any effectiveness of blog on students’ writing of narrative text at tenth year of SMAN Tangerang Selatan.
The researcher used t-test formula in the significance degree α of 5. The result
showed that T
test
To T
table
Tt or 0.59 1.67. The difference of postest statistic result significantly showed from t statistic 2.160 greater from t table 5 =
1.688. So, the null hypothesis H
o
is rejected. It means that the alternative hypothesis H
1
is accepted that there is effectiveness of blog on students’ writing
of narrative text at tenth year of SMAN 3 Tangerang Selatan.
