Besides data from pre-test and post-test, I also collected the data from students‟ ideas that had been written on a piece paper. The paper consists of list of
students‟ ideas after applying One Stay Three Stray strategy.
3.7.3 Questionnaire
According to Arikunto 2006: 151, “questionnaire is a number of written questions to get information from respondent.” In line with the definition, a
questionnaire is a list of questions that should be answered by students. It was also distributed to support the primary data. It was used to find the students‟ response
during teaching learning process. After all of the activities finished, I distributed questionnaire to the students to get information about their responses and
problems related to the teaching and learning activities in improving their writing skill, especially in writing hortatory exposition text.
In the case, all items in the questionnaire can be scored as they stand: 5
= strongly agree 4
= agree 3
= uncertain 2
= disagree 1
= strongly disagree Oppenheim 1984: 137
Since there were fifteen items, there would be maximum possible score of 5 x 15 = 75, and a necessary minimum score of 1 x 15 = 15 The questionnaire sheet can
be seen in appendix 10.

One Stay Three Stray Strategy Applied in Teaching Hortatory Exposition Text
In One Stay Three Stray strategy, a number of students can share their ideas with others. They are encouraged to be active during the discussion.
In the first meeting, I asked the students to make a hortatory exposition text individually based on a certain topic, mobile phones should be banned in the
class. Then, I collected their writing. It was used as pretest. Second meeting, I explained more about hortatory exposition text, such
as social function of hortatory exposition text, generic structure, significant lexicogrammatical features, etc. I also gave the example of hortatory exposition
text with the analysis. Before applying One Stay Three Stray strategy, I explained this strategy first to the students. After everything was ready, I asked the students
to write hortatory exposition text by using One Stay Three Stray strategy. I divided the class into some groups. Each group consisted of four students. Then, I
gave them another topic, school uniform, another good lesson, to be discussed in groups. I asked them to write their ideas on a piece of paper I had prepared the
paper before. When they were ready to share their ideas with other groups, I asked one student to stay as a host and share the ideas bring the paper containing
list of ideas. The others joined other groups and became listeners they might ask the host from other group if they have some problems.
After getting new information from other groups, the three students backed to their home group. There, they could share the new ideas or information
they had got. The host wrote the new ideas in another side of paper which had contained the previous ideas.
After discussing the appropriate ideas that would be applied in the students‟ writing, I asked them to write a hortatory exposition individually each
group has the same ideas because they work together, but the writing is written individually.
I also applied this strategy in the third and fifth meetings. In the third meeting, I gave the students a new topic, smoking habit in our country. In the fifth
meeting, I gave the students the same topic with the first meeting because it was used as post-test.
In the sixth meeting, I gave the students questionnaires to fill them out in order to know their opinion after getting the treatment, that is writing hortatory
exposition text by using One Stay Three Stray strategy. Therefore I got the data from:
Pre-test : The students wrote hortatory exposition text before using One Stay Three Stray strategy;
Post-test : The students wrote hortatory exposition text after using One Stay Three Stray strategy.
To strengthen the data that this strategy can explore students ideas, I collected students ideas that had been written in a piece of paper. Besides, I also collected
their questionnaires.
