CHAPTER V CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION
This chapter presents the conclusion of the research result. Besides, the researcher also proposes several significant suggestions.
A. Conclusion
The result showed 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. Meanwhile, 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. The result of the study showed that sig. 2 tailed p values which was 0.005
for complexity and 0.001 for accuracy. In other words, p α. It meant that the H
Null Hypothesis was rejected and Ha Alternative Hypothesis was accepted. It proved that using blog in writing was effective. In other words, there was an
effect of blog toward students’ accuracy and complexity in writing narrative text
at eleven grade of SMA Daar El - Qolam Excelent Class.
B. Suggestion
Based on the research, the writer would like to give suggestions as follow
1. For teachers
a. The teacher should use blog as one of media in teaching writing in class. In addition, the advantages of blog on accuracy and complexity in
narrative writing text have been experimentally studied in this study.
b. Teachers should encourage students to learn English, especially writing, in more fun way. By using blog, they will not be burdened with the text they
are going to write. It is important for students to experience writing for pleasure in the class because it will motivate students for writing. It also
will make the situation in the class livelier; since students will do something fun in class.
c. Teachers should be the facilitator. It means that even though students have already had blog as media in writing text, it does not mean that students
learn by themselves uncontrolled. Teachers should give them highlight of how accurate and complex text is.
2. For students:
Students are intended to pay attention to details in writing with accuracy and complexity.
3. For further research
a. This study, of course, is needed to be completed. It is only one of study that proves that blog can be a useful media in writing text to improve the
complexity and accuracy. In addition, the writer hopes that this study can be added and completed from different perspective, ideas and views in
order to give more contribution in different perspective. b. The title of this study is the effect of blog towards accuracy and
complexity in writing, but unfortunately the kind of writing used in this study, due to several reasons, is hortatory exposition. Further research
perhaps can conduct the research with other varied genres of text. c. The further research perhaps can improve the reliability of the result of
test by using at least 2 raters in assessing students writing.
