CHAPTER V
CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION
This research began with the questions whether there is any significant difference of students’ achievement in writing narrative texts that are taught by using
authentic song lyrics and those who are taught by using pictures and which one of them is more effective in giving contribution to improve the students’ writing
competence of narrative text at eleventh grade students of SMAN 2 Semarang in the academic year of 20132014. To finish the report, it’s not complete without
conclusion and suggestion of what have been discussed in the previous chapter. In order to complete this report, the conclusion and suggestion will be presented in
this chapter.
5.1 Conclusion
According to the result of the study that has been discussed in the previous chapter, the writer will convey some conclusions about this study.
In writing narrative text, the use of “authentic song lyrics” gives much contribution and supports the students. By using this media, the students are able
to catch the story in the lyrics. They are able to use their own words to convey their own story based on the lyrics. By using this media, the students’ creativity is
used to make the story more colorful. This media stimulates the students to think creatively after the story in a form of song was available. On the other side, the
use of “pictures” also gives contributions to the students in writing narrative text.
However, it has many disadvantages to apply this media in order to write a narrative text. As a result, “pictures” as media to improve students’ writing
competence of narrative text is less contributive than the “authentic song lyrics”. There is a significant difference of students’ achievement in writing
narrative text that are taught by using authentic song lyrics and those who are taught by using pictures. Based on the calculation of t-test that has been explained
in the previous chapter, it was obtained that t-value was 2,333 and t-table was 1,997. It means that t-value was higher than t-table, so it was able to be concluded
that there is a significant difference of students’ achievement in writing narrative text that are taught by using authentic song lyrics and those who are taught by
using pictures as media. In other words, the research findings revealed that the result of the research was in line with the writer’s alternative hypothesis H1 that
“There is a significant difference of students’ achievements in writing narrative text that are taught by using authentic song lyrics and those who are taught by
using pictures”. So, this hypothesis is accepted. While, the writer’s null hypothesis H0 that “There is no difference of students’ achievement in writing
narrative text that are taught by using authentic song lyrics and those who are taught by using pictures” was refused.
The use of authentic song lyrics and pictures give contribution to improve students’ achievement in writing narrative text. Authentic song lyrics media was
applied in the experimental group, while pictures media was applied in the control group. Based on the statistical analysis, it can be seen that the average score of pre
test in the control group was 59.823 and the post test was 66. Based on those
scores, the difference between pre test and post test score was 6.177. On the other side, the average score of pre test in the experimental group was 62.823 and the
post test was 72.5. Based on those scores, the difference between pre test and post test was 9.677. So, it could be concluded that there was improvement of both
group’s achievement after receiving treatments. By comparing the different average scores on both groups, the writer is
able to conclude that the authentic song lyrics as media gave more contribution than the pictures to improve students’ competence of writing narrative text. So, it
means that the authentic song lyrics media is more effective to be used in teaching writing narrative text.
5.2 Suggestions
Based on the conclusions above, the writer would like to present the following suggestions.
For the students, learning to write a narrative text by using authentic song lyrics as media is good for students. It can attract the students’ interest and
motivate them to write a story. For the English teachers, in order to teach language, the teachers need a lot
of media to support teaching learning activity in the classroom. One of media that can be used to give innovation in teaching learning activity is authentic song
lyrics media. When the variation appears in the teaching learning activity, the students are also interested in the lesson and unconsciously they want to improve
