The researcher used a Pre-experimental Design with one group pre-test andpost-test design. The population was the First Grade Students of SMA Negeri 1Gowa in Academic Year 2018-2019, which consisted of six classes. The samplewas 35 students. It employed of six meetings. It employed essay writing asinstrument. A number of the samples were 35 students in Class X.E.

The research findings indicated that using Picture Series could improve thestudents writing ability in terms of content and language use especially in writingnarrative text. It was proved by the students’ mean score in pre-test was 65.68 andpost-test was 82.77. It showed that the students’ writing ability in post-test washigher than pre test. After calculating the difference between matched pair (D), itwas found that the result of t-test value was 25,53. By applying the level ofsignificance (p) =0,05 and the degree of freedom (df) = 35-1=34, it was found thatthe result of t-table was 2.03. Therefore, the t-test was greater than t-table(25.53>2.03). Therefore, the t-test was greater than t-table (25.53>2.03) and nullhyphothesis was rejected and Alternative hypothesis was accepted. It mean thatthere was a significant difference in the students’ writing ability before and afterapplying Picture Series.

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

A. Background

English is the third most widely spoken mother tongue in the world,

after Mandarin and Spanish. English is also used as a second language and

official language by the European Union, Commonwealth, and the United

Nations, as well as various other organizations. English in Indonesia is

generally taught as a foreign language. The term 'foreign language' in the

field of language teaching differs from 'second language'. A foreign language

is a language that is not used as a communication tool in a particular country

where the language is taught. While the second language is a language that is

not the primary language but became one of the languages used in general in

a country. For example, English in Singapore is a second language. Mass

media, communications, and talks in the country often use English. In

Indonesia, the policy of teaching English as a foreign language changes over

time and the turn of policies that are mostly economic and political.

Writing is one the four basic skills in teaching and learning which must

be mastered by the students and taught well by the teachers. Writing is a

language in printed form; it is used to convey information about something

and to express idea. Writing is also a system of intercommunication by means

of conventional visible marks. According to Flynn and Stainthorp in thresia

(2017:9) “writing is a complex process that allows writers to explore

1

Page 17: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

2

thoughts, ideas, and make it visible and concrete”. According to Richards and

Renandya in thresia (2017 :9) “ state that the process of teaching writing

consists of four basic stages. They are planning, drafting, revising and

editing”.

English has four skills that are speaking, reading, listening, writing.

from some existing skill in english, skill less interested student is writing.

because there are several factors so students are less interested in writing.

internal factors are obstacles that arise from within the student itself for

example students do not have sufficient vocabulary. external factors namely

obstacles that arise from outside the student, namely from the teacher itself

such as: The teacher does not provide process writing for students, so there

are no stages that can help students in making their writing. The teacher does

not teach writing using appropriate techniques. The teacher does not provide

interesting material or media in students' writing activities.

At the initial observation, the researcher see the school's teachers only

provide explanations to students and use the book package to write a narrative

text. Automatically if the teacher only gives an explanation and gives a book

to write narrative text, the student's skill will not develop especially the

student's vocabulary.

Based on the above problem, the researcher decided to promote one of

the teaching picture of series as media that appeal to the students in order to

help the students in making narrative text by using picture as media.

Page 18: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

3

The purpose of using the picture of series as media in learning this

writing so that students can develop skills in writing.

Based on the above problem, the researcher is interested to lift a

research title with The Use Of Picture Series as Media To Increase writing

Narrative Text ’ at The first Grade Students Of SMA Negeri 1 Gowa.

B. Problem Statements

Related to the background above, the researcher formulates the

problem in this study are :

a. does the use of picture series increase the writing narrative text in terms of

language use

b. does the use of picture series increase the writing narrative text in terms of

content.

C. Objectives of the Study

Based on the research problems above, the objective of the research

are as follows:

a. to find out whether or not the use of picture series increase the students’

writing skill in terms of language use at the first grade students of SMA

Negeri 1 Gowa.

b. to find out whether or not the use of picture series increase the students’

writing skill in terms of content at the first grade students of SMA Negeri

1 Gowa.

D. Significance of the study

1. For the students :

The students can apply the use of series of picture as media in their

study club to improve their writing ability. It helps them become better

learner and help them to evaluate and have responsibility for their own

learning.

2. For the teacher :

media, especially by using series of picture as media in teaching, so that they

can increase both teaching-learning quality and the students' learning

achievement.

3. For other researcher :

The result of the study can be used as a reference for starting point to

conduct further study about teaching and learning English, especially by

applying the use of series of picture as media in every classroom activity.

E. Scope of the study

This research was limited to the use picture series as media to improve

writing skill in narrative text. These were focused on content and language

use because most of the students have difficulty in writing well and they have

difficulty in expressing their idea to complete their writing’s content.

CHAPTER II

REVIEW OF THE RELATED LITERATURE

A. Previous Related Research Findings

There had been some research related to the writing skill by using

picture series. Some of them are quoted below.

The first research was Using Picture Series to Enhance Students’

Ability in Narrative Writing by Khotimah (2017). In this research, the

researcher found that by using picture series can improve the students’

writing skill. The result of this study showed that the improvement of the

experimental class was higher than that of the control class. It was known

from the comparison of the improvement of their average score in both

classes on the content aspect of writing that is 7.26 in the experimental class

and 3.28 in the control class. Besides, the result of the hypothesis testing

shows that the score is 0.000 which is lower than 0.05 (0.000<0.05), which

means the research hypothesis that “the use of picture series can improve the

students’ ability in narrative writing skill especially on the content aspect” is

accepted.

The second researcher was the effect of picture series toward students’

Descriptive writing skill by Nina Puspitaloka (2016). In this research,

research found that using picture series was effective to improve students’

writing skill. In this research, written test was administered as an instrument

for both experimental and control groups and the administrating of

5

Page 21: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

6

questionnaires given to an experimental group. To answer the first research

problem, the data from written test were analyzed using independent t-test.

The result of data was of t observed = 2.037 and t table = 2.00 with the

standard of significance 0.05. It means that t observed was higher than the t

table (2.037 > 2.00). Moreover, the result indicated that Picture Series media

significantly was effective toward students’ descriptive writing skill. Based

on the result of questionnaire, it can be explained that most of the students

had positive responses in learning writing of descriptive text by using Picture

Series media and they were felt enjoyable and interested series to use pictures

in learning writing descriptive text.

The third research was Using Pictures Series Technique to Enhance

Narrative Writing among Ninth Grade Students at Institución Educativa

Simón Araujo by Katia Gregoria Contreras Gutiérrez (2015). In this research,

the researcher found that by using pictures series can influence the students’

achievement in writing skill. The obtained results through descriptive

statistics (Mean) indicated there was a significant difference between the

group which was taught through Pictures series technique and Process-based

approach over the one which only received Process-based instruction. The

researchers conclude that the intervention with Picture series technique

improved the overall growth of writing skills, specific to the areas of

Transition or logical sequence and Ideas exposure.

Based on the previous related studies above, the researcher concluded

that the using picture series in the class is effective to improve students’

Page 22: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

7

writing skill and students more understand the material in their writing

assignment.

B. Concept of Writing

1. Definition of Writing

Byrne in Hartina (2013:8) states that writing is clearly more than the

prediction of the sounds. The symbols have been arranged according to

certain in convention. As rule, however the students do not write just one

sentence or a number of sentence as arranged in particular order linked

together in certain ways. Writing involves the encoding of message of some

kinds that translate throghout into language.

D’ Angelo in Fajriani (2016:7), states that writing is a form of

thinking for a particular audience, and for particular occasion. According to

this concept that one of the most important tasks as a writer is to master the

principles of writing and thinking that will help to achieve his goal. The most

important of these principles are those of invention arrangement, and style

invention is the process of discovering ideas for speaking or writing

arrangement.

2. omponents of good writing

Jacob in Fajriani (2016:15) points out five kinds of components in

writing. They are content, organization, language use, vocabulary, and

mechanics.

Page 23: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

8

a. Content

The content of writing should be clear for the readers so that the readers

can understand the message convey and gain information from it. In order to

have a good content of writing, its content should be well unified and

completed. This term is usually known as unity and completeness, which

become characteristic of good writing.

b. Organization

The purpose of organizing material in writing involves coherence,

order of importance, and general to specific general, chronological order and

spatial order of pattern. When writing the learner should arrange their writing

chronologically. They should present their ideas based on the order of which

happened from the beginning to the end.

c. Vocabulary

Vocabulary is one of the language aspects dealing with the process of

writing study. In the process of writing the writer always thinks about putting

word into sentences and then putting sentences into pharagraphs untill they

can create a piece of writing. The lack of vocabulary make someone fails to

compose what they are going to say because they felt difficult to choose the

appropriate vocabulary.

d. Language Use

Language used in writing description and other form of writing

involves connected languages and point of grammar should be one that is

Page 24: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

9

capable of producing grammar. We should not be able to do anything more

than latter separate function. And also grammar can help the students improve

the use of formal language.

e. Mechanics

Mechanics in writing deals with capitalization, spelling and

punctuation. Capital letters have principal use in English writing. This may be

use distinguish between particular and general classes of person, place, and

things.

3. The Important of Writing

There are a lot of reasons why writing is important by Hairston in

Fajriani (2016: 9):

a. Writing is a tool for discovey. We stimulate our thought process by the act

writing into information and tab into information and image we have our

unconscious mind.

b. Writing helps us to organize our ideas. We can arrange them in coherent

form.

c. Writing generates new ideas by helping us to make connection and see

relationship.

d. Writing down ideas allow us to dictate ourselves form them.

e. Writing helps us to observe and process information when we write a

topic, we learn it better.

Page 25: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

10

f. Writing enables us to solve the problems by putting the element of them

into written form; we can examine and manipulate them.

g. Writing on a subject makes us active rather than passive learns of

information while the other reason.

4. The Characteristic of good writing

Sumerset in Ashar (2014:18) states it’s never that easy to

characterize good writing. For the most part, we know instinctively when

something that we’re reading is of great quality. Similarly, we know it when

a piece of writing is better pushed aside.

While it’s likely not possible to create a play – by – play list of all

characteristics of great writing, certain things are present in almost every

well- made piece of text :

It has a clearly-defined purpose.

It makes clear and focused points.

It supports those points with details and accompanying facts.

It presents varied points in a cohesive manner.

It doesen’t waste the reader’s time by veering away from focus without

reason.

If you take account of all the well-made writing you’ve seen over the years,

those points will inevitably be present. They are, for the most part,

fundamental characteristics of what makes a piece of writing work.

Page 26: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

11

5. Types of writing

According to Oshima and Hogue in Fajriani (2016:11) there are

some types of Writings:

a. Narration

Narration is story writing. When you wrote a narrative pharagraph or

essay, you write about events in the order that they happened. In other

words, you use time order to organize your sentence. In the model essay, the

writer uses time order to divide the essay into pharagraphs. An outline of the

essay narration would like this: orientation, complication, and resolution.

b. Description

Descriptive writing to the sense, so it tells how something looks,

feels smells, tastes and sounds. A good description is like a “word picture”

the reader can imagine the object, place, or person in his or her mind of the

reader. In a description, writers often use spatial order to organize their

ideas. Spatial order is the arrangement of items in order by space. An outline

of description would like this: introduction, body, and conclusion.

c. Explanatory

There are three kinds of explanatory composition, they are:

1. Explaining a process

To write an explanatory composition that explains a process, rely on

the same skills you have used in everyday situations. Explain the steps in

Page 27: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

12

the process briefly and clearly. Start with the step and proceed through all

the step in the order in which they must be completed. It is essential that the

steps be presented in the correct sequence and that they are accurate and

complete. An effective way to organize an explanatory composition that

explains a process is to follow this plan: introduction, steps in the process

and conclussion.

2. Stating an opinion

An explanatory composition may express an oppinion and explain

why others should explain why others should accept that opinion. In an

explanatory composition, you need to present strong, specific reasons or

facts. An effective way to organize an explanatory composition that stating

6. Process of writing

This section included a description of the activities leading to the

writing for the previous essay. These activities include are prewriting,

writing, and rewriting:

a. Prewriting

Graham and Perin in Fajriani (2016:11) explain that pre-writing

engages the students in activities design to help them generate or organize

ideas for their composition. Engaging the students in such activities before

they write a first draft improve their quality of their writing. Prewriting

Page 28: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

13

activities include gathering possible information for a paper through reading

or developing a visual representation of their ideas before sitting down to

write.

b. Writing

Graham and Perin in Fajriani (2016:11) state that the process of writing

approach stress activities that emphasize extends opportunities for writing.

Writing for real audiences, self reflection, personalize, instructions and goals,

and cycles of planning, ad reviewing.

c. Rewriting

At this stage, you will need to work more careful. Read what you have

even a combination of both. In various sources Narrative Text can be

found in the form: fables (Stories about animals behave like humans

Page 29: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

14

pictured), fairy stories (The story is fantastic, full of wonders), mysteries,

science fiction, romance horror stories, legends, historical narratives,

personal experience (personal experiences written), ballads (ballads, which

can be a touching story readers, usually in the form of a love story that is

not up).

3. Generic Structure of Narrative Text

in the text, when and where it happens. The otherhand, orientation is the

introduction of the participant in the story.

conflict among the participants. Complication is the main element of

narrative. Without complication, the text is not narrative. The conflict can be

shown as natural, social or psycological conflict.

c. Resolution

This is the phase where the participants solve the problem aroused by

the conflict. It is not matter whether the participants succeed or fail. The point

is the conflict becomes ended.

4. Language Feature of Narrative text

According to Mislaini in Hartina (2013:40) there are three language

feature of narrative text:

a. Using processes verbs

b. Using temporal conjunction

c. Using simple past tense

D. Concept of Teaching Media

1. Teaching Media

Media is every tool to convey information or messages from one place

to another place. In teaching learning process also use media to make the

process run effective and interesting. This part describes definition of

teaching media, function of teaching media, and kinds of teaching media.

Generally, teaching media mean all tools which may be used by teacher to

deliver teaching material to students in teaching learning process to reach

certain learning goals.There are some experts that stated about teaching

media. According to Bakri (2011:3) media is plural form of medium, which

derives from latin word medius that has meaning “middle”. In language,

medium means “between or interval”. The meaning of media aimed at

something that delivers information (massage) between message sender and

receiver.

Page 31: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

16

2. The Function of Teaching Media

According to Sudjana (2001:64) the function of teaching media in

teaching and learning process as follows:

a) The using of media in teaching learning process is not addition function,

but has own function as an aid to express effective teaching learning

situation.

b) The using of teaching media is integral part of all learning situation. It

means that teaching media is one of element that should be developed by

teacher.

c) The using of teaching media is more important to accelerate teaching and

learning process and help student in comprehend material from teacher.

3. Kinds of Teaching Media

categories such as:

a) Graphic Media

b) Display Media

c) Three Dimensional Media

d) Projected Media

e) Audio Media

f) Video Media

g) Visual Media

E. Concept of Picture Series

1. Defenition of Picture Series

Picture series is one of the instructional media to overcome the writing

problems especially in writing narrative text. Picture series is a creative idea

to develop concepts of the story written by the students. Previously, they are

difficult to integrate sentence in making a composition because they are lack

of ideas. By using picture series, students can build concepts and raise the

ideas of the story they write. According to Metiawati in Nurkamri (2014)

“Picture series is a number of related composite linked to the form of series or

sequence of events”. According to Alex in Muna (2016) “Picture Series is

one of the media that is support the process of brainstorming during the

process of writing as visual aids that stimulate to provide inspiration to

express something”. Picture series contains the series of pictures forming a

story. Kreidler in Nurkamri (2014) states, “A series of pictures can be used as

cues for the retelling of a story.” Picture series guided them to write and

compose each pharagraph.

Wright (1988) states that pictures are very important in helping students

to retell expreriences or understand something since they can represent place,

object, people, etc. Harmer (2004:33) adds that pictures are often used to

present situations to help students work with grammar and vocabulary. It is

enjoyable for the students because it encourages activity in guessing the

messages from the picture based on their imagination. Students can

understand the content of the whole series of pictures because the pictures are

Page 33: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

18

related. Pictures series are arranged as media to help students express their

ideas and feelings fluently. Picture series can be used in various teaching

learning activities especially teaching writing in narrative text. By using

picture series, students are able to develop their ideas so that it eases students

to build concept of the story will be written by them.

2. The Advantage of Picture Series

According to Latuheru in Nurkamri (2014), pictures have several

function in the teaching and learning process. First, picture can translate

abstract ideas into more realistic forms. Second, pictures are easily obtained,

for example from schoolbooks, newspapers and magazines. Third, pictures

are usable in different kinds of academic levels. Fourth, picture can save the

teacher’s time and energy. In addition, Raimes in Nurkamri (2014), pictures

in sequence provide for a variety of guided and free writing exercises. A

picture sequence, such as a comic strip, provides the subject matter for

writing narrative and for speculating about the story beyond the pictures in

the strip.

By using picture series, the attention of students to be focused on the

picture. So picture series creates their inspiration. Picture series can be used

in every material and whatever the emphasis of the syllabus that teacher is

following.

Page 34: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

19

3. Step of Picture Series

Metiawati in Nurkamri (2014) state that there are several steps when the

student’s begin to write narrativ text:

a) Showing picture series to students and asking students to observe then

identify.

b) Asking the students to give their own ideas about the pictures.

c) Asking the students to write pharagraph narrative based on the series of

pictures in a group work.

d) Checking the suitability of students essay with pictures series concept.

After calculating t-test value (25.53), then it is compared with the t-

table value. For the level of significance (p)=0.05 with the degree of freedom

(df) = N-1, where N= Number of subject(35 students) then the value of t-table

was 2,03 t-test statistical, analysis for independent sample is applied. It can be

seen in the following table below

Table 7. the value of t-test

t-test value t-table value Comparison25.53 2.03 25.53>2.03

These findings are used to determine whether or not the hypothesis

stated in this research is statically proved. As being stated in previous that t-

table value and the alternative hypothesis (H1) is accepted. Therefore, based on

the result above where the t-test value is greater that t-table value (25.53>2.03).

it means that the hypothesis “there was significant difference of the students’

ability in writing narrative text before and after using picture series” is

accepted. So, it is concluded that using picture series in learning can make

students more active, enjoy and motivate in teaching learning process. It means

that using picture series as media can be used as one of the alternative to teach

narrative text.

B. Discussion

This research concerned to the use picture series as media in increasing

students’ writing skill in term of content and language use of first grade

students of SMA Negeri 1 Gowa.

Picture series is one of the media that is support the process of

brainstorming during the process of writing as visual aids that stimulate to

provide inspirations to express something. Picture series contains the series of

picture forming a story (Metiawati, 2014).

Teaching writing through the use of picture series is effective to be

applied in writing skill (Nina Puspitaloka, 2016; Ismawati, 2014; Pratiwi,

2016; Apsari, 2017; Dwi Ariningsih, 2010. The result of the study from

Nurkamri (2014) that Picture Series can be used as cues for the retelling a story

and picture series guided them to write and compose each pharagraph.

Picture series can be used in various teaching learning activities

especially teaching writing in narrative text. By using picture series, students

are able to develops their ideas so that it cases students to built concept of the

story will be written by them.

The research finding that the students’ writing skill by using Picture

Series as Media showed the improvement of the students’ writing skill in the

term of content and language use. From the improvement showed the process

in pre-test and post-test. The result of the students writing in pre-test was low,

especially in finding the content and language use. It showed that the students

Page 54: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

39

could not express their ideas and their understandable. It was before using

Picture Series as Media in writing activity.

Based on the problem above, the writer gave the treatment by using

Picture Series as Media, so that the students could show the improvement in

post-test. In pre-test, writer only gave the essay text to know their prior

knowledge before using Picture Series as Media.

At the beginning, their writing skill was very bad. Almost of them were

confused and spent much time to write. They are difficulty in writing well and

they have difficulty in expressing their idea to complete their writing’s content.

After students were given a pre-test, the writer gave the treatment by

using Picture Series as Media. As the result, students become active and enjoy

in writing activity. They would be easy to do writing activity. Most of their

utterance were correct and no need to write for a long time.

The result of students’ mean score after presenting in teaching writing

skill by using Picture Series as Media is better than before the treatment is

given to the students. Before giving the treatment, the students’ writing skill in

content and language use are fair. After giving the treatment, their writing skill

is significantly improve and categorized as good.

Based on this computation, it explains that the students of SMA Negeri 1

Gowa have a better improvement in writing both for content in terms of unity

and completeness and language use in terms of tenses by using Picture Series.

This finding is also supported by the score analysis which showed by the

students' mean score in pretest and posttest which improved The findings

Page 55: THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN ...Judul Skripsi : THE USE OF PICTURE SERIES AS MEDIA IN INCREASING STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILL AT THE FIRST GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA NEGERI 1 GOWA

40

indicate that the use of Series of Picture at the first Grade Students of SMA

Negeri 1 Gowa is effective in teaching and learning to improve the students'

ability in writing narrative text especially in content and language use of

writing It was supported by some opinion of some rescarcher before. Brown

(1983) state that pictures may improve the students' visual literacy. For

example, pictures may help them to comprehend various abstractions. There

are some valuable uses for pictures such as stimulating students' interest and

helping readers to understand and remember the content of accompanying

verbal materials. So, Picture series is one of the instructional media to

overcome the writing problems especially in writing narrative text. Picture

series is a creative idea to develop concepts of the story written by the students.

Previously, they are difficult to integrate sentences in making a composition

because they are lack of ideas. By using picture series students can build

concepts and raise the ideas of the story they write

B. Suggestions

As the result of conducting Series of Picture, the researc her would like

to give fours suggestions for the next research as follows:

1. It is suggested to the English teachers to use Series of Picture as one of

effective media in the teaching and learning process especially in teaching

writing ability

2. It is suggested to the next researchers that they can used Series of Picture

to improve the students writing ability about the other component or

variable of writing, because the researcher only observes a small part of

the component of writing including content and language use.

3. The result of this research can also be used as an additional reference or

further research with different discussion for the next researcher
