d. Reflecting
After getting the result of observation checklist and posttest 2, the writer and the collaborator carried out the reflection. They felt satisfaction
with the result of the action. The result of the posttest 2 showed that 80 of the students got the score above the Minimum Mastery Criterion- Kriteria
Ketuntasan Minimal KKM. So it has met the first criterion of success that 75 of the students must get the score above the Minimum Mastery
Criterion- Kriteria Ketuntasan Minimal KKM . Also, the students’
participation in the second cycle achieved 89.3. It meant that the second criterion of success has achieved. Because of the satisfied result, so the

4. Findings after implementing CAR
a. The Result of Post Interview
Unstructured interview was conducted on Monday, February 7
th
2011. It started at 10.00 A.M and finished at 10.30 A.M. In this case, the writer divided into three criteria of questions. First criterion talked about the
general condition in writing class during implementing the action. It was found that the students’ condition were better than before. In this sense, they
looked enthusiast and felt easier to write narrative text using Jigsaw technique
. The students’ participation was good because the activity in the classroom involved the students.
Second criterion was about the barrier and its solution in implementing Jigsaw technique during implementing the action. It was
observed that most of the students difficult in describing the event in the picture because of limited number of vocabulary. So, it was added some key
words on the pictures to help the students in developing their ideas. Also it was suggested for the students to bring dictionary to help them to find out
the difficult word. The last criterion is about the opinion of Jigsaw technique. It was
said that Jigsaw was a good technique in teaching writing. It could be an
54
effective way to help the students’ writing. Beside it might be able to improve the students’ writing; it could be an alternative strategy and could
motivate the English teacher to use it. See appendix 2b for detail result of interview
