Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of cooperative laerning approach in increasing student’s writing skill especially in writing narative text. The method used was pre-experimental. Here the researcher looked at one class as the sample, namely experimental group. Variables of this research consist of dependent variable (student’s ability skill) and independent variable (cooperative learning). The population of this research was the second year students of SMA PGRI Jayapura. There were two classes and ach class was about 30 students. So the population of this student was about 60 students. The researcher used cluster random sampling technique in this research and one class was taken as the sample. The instrument used was writing test used on pre-test and post-test. Both in pre-test and post-test students were asked to make composition in narrative form according to their preferred topic. The result shows that the mean score of the posttest is greater than the mean score of pretest, where the mean score of the pretest is 61.87 and the mean score of the posttest is 68.20. The t-test result also greater than the t-table value, where t-test result is 14.83 and the t-table value is 2.045. It means that there are significance difference between pre-test and posttest. It means that the implementation of cooperative learning approach is effective to develop students’ ability to write narrative text.
