CHAPTER IV THE RESULTS OF THE RESEARCH
This chapter presents the result of the research which is administered to investigate the effectiveness of Collaborative Writing method in teaching writing
skill viewed from students‟ creativity. The discussion includes the implementation of the research, research design, prerequisite test, hypothesis test, discussion of the
result.
A. The Implementation of the Research
In the treatment, two teaching writing methods were implemented. The Collaborative Writing method was implemented on the experimental group, and
the Direct Instruction method was implemented on the control group. At first, the researcher conducted the treatment in ten meetings. Finally, after having
treatment, both groups were post-tested. The lesson plan used for both experimental group and control group were
designed by the researcher. Both groups had the same materials, referring to the catalog used in STAIN Jurai Siwo. In Development the material, the researcher
used some topics in descriptive text attached in the lesson plan, such as: My weekend, My Idol, My favorite food, My favorite place, My Ideal Bedroom, What

Collaborative Writing method in the experimental group and the Direct Instruction method in the control group.
Since the Collaborative Writing method seems new for the experimental group, the treatment in the experimental group was conducted in the following
stages: modeling, guiding, and practicing. In the modeling stage, the researcher will demonstrate how the Collaborative Writing method works. Then, the
researcher taught the students each strategy in the Collaborative Writing method and model them how to use them in learning. In the guiding stage, students are
asked to be in groups of five. The researcher guided the students how to use them correctly. In the practicing stages, the researcher asked students to practice the
Collaborative Writing method independently. Due to the syllabus employed in STAIN Jurai Siwo consists of the variety
text that used in the classroom. Therefore, in this research, the researcher focuses on the descriptive text only in ten meetings. The schedule for experimental group
and control group is as follow:
