Based on the tables above, it is shown that the complexity mean score at post test in experimental class was 14.85. On the contrary, the complexity
mean score at post test in controlled class was 11.00. It suggests that the complexity mean score at post test in experimental class was higher than the
mean score at post test in controlled class. It is indicated that there was positive effect of using blog on students’ complexity, since students in
experimental class experienced writing with using blog while the controlled class did not. Meanwhile, based on the tables above too, it is shown that the
accuracy mean score at post test in experimental class was 15.75. On the contrary, the complexity mean score at post test in controlled class was 12.05.
It suggests that the accuracy mean score post test in experimental class was higher than the mean score at post test in controlled class. It indicateds that
there was positive effect of using blog on students’ accuracy, since students in experimental class experienced writing with using blog while the controlled
class did not. In addition, the second tables contained sig. 2 tailed values which was
0.005 for complexity and 0.001 for accuracy. The criteria mentioned that if sig. 2 tailed values α, it meant that H0 was rejected and Ha was accepted.
However, if sig. 2 tailed values α, it meant that H0 was accepted and Ha was
rejected. As result of SPSS calculation of this study, sig. 2 tailed values was 0.005 and 0.003
. It meant that sig. 2 tailed values was smaller than α which was 0.05. It indicated that H0 was rejected and Ha was accepted. In the other
word, there was significant effect of blog toward students’ accuracy and
complexity in narrative writing text.
C. Data Interpretation
By seeing the result above, it can be concluded that using blog in writing affect students’ accuracy and complexity. Students who wrote on blog had
significant different from those who did not write blog on accuracy and complexity. In other words, blog can be a useful media in increasing
