CHAPTER III
RESEARCH METHOD
A. Research Design
This research was an experimental research. In this research, there
were two variables that had correlation each other. The variables were the
effect of Stop and Dare Strategy as independent variable and students’ writing
skill as dependent variable. Variable was an object of study that became
important point in research.
According to Gay (2000: 367-368), the experimental research was the
only type of research that can test hypotheses to establish cause-and effect
relationship. And consist of two classes, which were experimental class and
control class. In this research, the experimental class was taught by Stop and
Dare Strategy and the control class was taught by Conventional Strategy
(Three Phase Strategy).
Besides, the two classes were taught by different writing strategy but
both of classes taught by researcher with the same topic and the same length
of time. After deciding which classes were experimental and control, the
researcher continue with the treatment process. The treatment was given to
experimental class about six meetings and also six meetings in control class.

Every meeting the researcher gave different topics. At the end of treatment,
the researcher gave the students post-test to see effect of the treatment towards
students’ writing skill.

Finally, at the end of the research, the researcher compare the mean
score students’ writing of experimental class and control class to prove
whether or not students who were taught of Stop and Dare strategy had better
writing skill in analytical exposition than who were not at Senior High School

B. Population and Sample
1. Population
Gay (2012:122) states that population was a group of interest to the
researcher, the group to which she or he would like the result of the study
to be generalized. In this research, the population of this research was
eleventh grade students of Senior High School 16 Padang. Total number of

the population is 104 consist of three classes (XI IPA1, XI IPA2, XI IPA3)

2. Sample
According to Gay (2012:134) a sample is a group of individuals,
items, or events that represents the characteristic of the larger group from
which the sample is drawn. Then, process of selecting a number of
individuals for a study in such a way that the individuals represent the
larger group from which they were selected is called Sampling.
Researcher used cluster random sampling. Gay (2012:144) says that
cluster random sampling is sampling in which group, not individual are
randomly selected.
To get the representative sample of this research the researcher did
these steps:
a. Collected students’ daily writing score from all of students at eleventh
grades. (see appendix 1)
b. Test of normality, normality test has an objective to know the
population normal or not. The normality test analyzed by using SPSS
(Statistical Product and Service Solution) with data exploration of
Kolmogorov-Smoirnov test and Shapiro Wilk. Based on that test the
data stated normal if every classes has significance or probability

score bigger than 0.05. It can be seen on the table

Based on the table, can be seen that the significance or
probability score just two classes (IPA1 and IPA2) bigger than 0.05 in
both Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro-Wilk.
To see whether the sample normal or not in distribution,
researcher also use normal graphic of Q-Q plot, the data is normal if
the distribution of data plot be in the surrounding of aslant and athwart
line. From the normality test, researcher got the output as below:

35

From the chart above can be seen that the drops spread around
the line. So, it can be concluded that the distribution of all the
population were not normal. Two classes was normal and the other not
normal.

c. After did the normality test, researcher analyzed the homogeneous
variation test. This test has an objective as to know whether the
sample homogeny or not. The researcher did the test of homogeneity
by using Test of Homogeneity of Variance. Population has homogeny
variance if P-value is bigger than 0.05. See the table below:

The decision of column test of homogeneity of variance shown
that p-value 0.001 is smaller than 0.05, so it can be concluded that all
the class were homogeneity.
d. After researcher analyzed the homogeneity and normality test,
researcher found all classes was homogeny but one class was not
normal. Then, sample of this research consisted of two classes: an
experimental class and control class. Researcher was chosen those
normal and homogeny classes as sample in this research.

In

determining experimental class and control class, the researcher used
flapping a coin. So, the researcher got XI IPA2 as control class and XI
IPA1 as experimental class.

C. Variable and Data
There are three variables in this research:
1.

Independent Variable
In this research, the independent variable was Stop and Dare Strategy that
was given to students in experimental class.

2.

Dependent Variable
The indication which appeared from treatment was result of students’
writing aspects that was gotten from test that was given at the end of
research.

3.

Control Variable, variable which was kept same teacher, syllabus,
curriculum, subject, and same material of subject.

D. Place and Time of the Research
This research conducted in Senior High School 16, Padang of
academic year 2017/2018.
E. Instrument of the Research
Instrument was a tool to collect the data; it was used to get the
accurate, complete and systematic research result from the sample. The
instrument of this research was test. The test is written test and the researcher
makes the test. The test was given at the end of the meeting (post-test). Test
used to measure students’ skill or to know significant effects from the

38

application of Stop and Dare Strategy in writing, because through using the
test researcher known students’ score by mastering all component in writing.
The researcher used Jacob's criteria (1981:90) in scoring the students' writing
product assessed based on five component that are; content, organization,
vocabulary, language use, and mechanics.

G. Technique of Data Collection
1. Test
The data of this research was collected by using writing test. The
data of this research was the student’s score in post-test. The researcher
gave treatment to experiment and control class. The classes conducted for

41

six meetings. And the material was taught is a kind of the monologue text
(Analytical Exposition text) by using Stop and Dare Strategy in
experimental class and conventional Strategy. In this section, the
researcher prepares an instructional design for each meeting.
At the end of this research, the researcher gave the post-test to
students in experimental and control class. Post-test was the process of
giving the test after giving the treatment. It was aimed to find out the effect
of treatments to students’ writing score.
2. Scoring
Researcher used scoring technique of Jacob (1981: 92) in this
research to assess students’ writing

H. Technique of Data Analysis
Technique of data analysis in this research used statistical procedure
and supported by SPSS program. It gave a way to analyze the differences
between the groups. To analyze the students’ score in post-test, the researcher
used T-test formula. In this case, T-test means a statistical procedure used to

42

determine whether there was any significant effect of the mean score between
the two sets of tests. The purpose was to see difference of students’ writing
Skill between experimental class and control class.
In analyzing students’ test score, some steps were done before
analyzing the different mean by using t-test formula as follows Sudjana
(2005:67, 93, 239):
T-test formulas develop which was presented as follow:
I.

This formula was used to decide mean of students’ test score in
experiment and control class:
∑ி ௑
ܺതଵ = ∑ భி భ

(Experiment class)

This formula was used to decide standard deviation of experiment class

This formula was used to decide standard deviation of control class
ܵଶଶ

݊ଶ ∑ ‫ܨ‬ଶ ܺଶଶ (∑ ‫ܨ‬ଶ ܺଶ )ଶ

The T-table uses to see whether there was any significant effect between
the mean score of post-test experiment class and control class. The value of
T-calculated was consulted with the value of T-table. The data was analyzed by
using simple regression for hypothesis with 5 % (=0, 05) of significance level
and the value of T-table of the degree of freedom (N1-1). If the value of Tcalculated

was bigger than the value of T-table, the hypothesis was accepted. On

the contrary, if the value of the T- calculated was smaller than the value T-table, the
hypothesis was not accept.
