CHAPTER IV RESEARCH RESULT AND DISCUSSION
This chapter presents the activities of experiment, result of try-out, pre-test, and post-test, significance difference between two means of pre-test and post-test, test
of significance, result of questionnaire, and discussion of the result. It deals with both writing achievement of the students who were given British Council
Animation as the media and who were given conventional technique. It also deals with the difference in writing achievement between the two groups of the
students.
4.1 Analysis of Each Meeting
In this section, will be discussed and analyzed the process of the experiment since the two groups were in the same level of writing comprehension.
4.1.1 Try Out
The students were given a try out before the pre test was conducted. Try out was given neither for group of experimental nor control group. It was done to class
VIII A of SMPN 2 Kendal. It was conducted on 30 April 2011. The test was a written test. The students have to write a narrative text based on the picture given.
The complete analysis of try-out can be seen in appendix 13. The following are the data interpretation of the try-out test

4.1.1.1 Validity
It was taken from the students’ test result of writing that consist of five aspect. They are I Organization: introduction, body and conclusion, II Logical
development of ideas content, III Grammar, IV Punctuation, spelling, and mechanics, and V Style and quality of expression
The test is valid because from content validity, the test is used to measure students’ writing skill and it is kind of writing test that has an aim to know the
students’ skill that is measured by these 5 aspect. From the empirical validity, this test is valid because the reliability is more than 0.5 and means that there is a good
correlation between the two measures group. From face validity the test is valid because the test is acceptable to be looked by the examinees, researcher, etc.
4.1.1.2 Reliability
The computing of reliability of the try-out instrument was 0.99. Since the result of computation value was higher than the critical value, it was concluded that the
instrument used in this research was reliable. The computation can be seen in appendix 11.
4.1.1.3 Difficulty Level
The computation of the difficulty level of five item were easy it meant that the item was not too easy either difficult for the students to do. It was shown by the P
value
that is based on the criteria in table 3.1. It could be seen that the aspect I and II was easy because 0.70 and 0.74 0.70. The aspect III, IV and V was medium
