This study deals with the effect of POW+TREE Strategy on students’ ability inwriting hortatory exposition text.. The problem of the study is to find out whetherPOW+TREE Strategy significantly affects students’ ability in writing hortatoryexposition text or not. This study was conducted by using experimental design.The population of the study was the students of eleventh grade of SMA Methodist8 Medan in the academic year 2015/2016, there were 3 parallel classes of gradeXI. There were two classes selected to be sample. The Experimental group (XIIPA-2) was taught by applying POW+TREE Strategy, while the Control group(XI IPA-3) was taught by applying conventional strategy. The data of the studywas obtained from the students’ scores of writing test. There were two kinds oftest used in this study. They were pre-test and post-test. The data were analyzedby applying t-test formula. After analyzing the data, the result of the study showedthat t-observed (2.338) was higher than t-table (1.994) (t-observed > t-table) at thelevel of significance of p=0.05 and the degree of freedom (df) = 68. It can beconcluded that applying POW+TREE strategy significantly affects students’ability in writing hortatory exposition text, or in other words, the null hypothesisis rejected , therefore the alternative hypothesis is accepted.

Writing process involves thinking and creative skills. To stimulate the students’ thoughts to express their ideas, clustering technique is effective brainstorming activity to help the students explore their ideas and write consistently. Thus, the objective of this study is to find out whether or not there is any significant difference between the students who were taught in writing descriptive paragraph through Clustering Technique and those who were not. The population of this study was all of the eighth grade students of SMP Srijaya Negara Palembang in academic year 2016/2017. There were three classes that consist of 113 students. The samples of this study were VIII C as a control group and VIII B as an experimental group. This study was conducted by using quasi experimental method with nonequivalent control group design. Then, the data were analyzed by using paired sample t-test and independent sample t-test. The result of independent sample t-test shows that the value of sig. (2-tailed) was 0.00 < 0.05 in the level of significant 0.05. While, the value of t-obtained was 5.213 higher than the critical value of t-table was 1.665 with degree of freedom 76. It can be concluded that the null hypothesis was rejected and the alternative hypothesis was accepted. It means that there was any significant difference between the students who were taught in writing descriptive paragraph through Clustering Technique and those who were not.

This research applied experimental design with a quantitative approach. It was quasi-experimental research type. The instrument research used test (pre-test and post-test) and documentation. The population of this research was the whole class XI  students of  SMAN 3 Pamekasan and the sample of this research was XI-MIPA3 as control group and XI-MIPA4 as experimental group. The control group was 30 students and either the experimental group. So, the sample of this research was 60 students. the The data collected were analyzed by using t-test formula to find whether any effect of using physical line-up game on students’ grammar achievement at the eleventh grade of SMAN 3 Pamekasan. The result of this study showed that t-value ( ) is higher than t-table ( ) either 5% or 1% where (5% = 1,67 < 3,33) or (1% = 2,39 < 3,33). But in this case, the researcher used significant on 5% (5% = 1,67 < 3,33). Thus, it can be concluded that Ha (Alternative Hypothesis) was accepted and the Ho (Null Hypothesis) was rejected. So, the effect was far in achieving the student’s ability of grammar comprehension by using physical line-up game.   Abstrak: Penelitian ini menerapkan desain eksperimen dengan pendekatan kuantitatif. Jenis penelitian kuasi-eksperimental. Instrumen penelitian menggunakan tes (pre-test dan post-test) dan dokumentasi. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah seluruh siswa kelas XI SMAN 3 Pamekasan dan sampel penelitian ini adalah XI-MIPA3 sebagai kelompok kontrol dan XI-MIPA4 sebagai kelompok. Jumlah siswa pada Kelompok kontrol dan kelompok eksperimen adalah 33 siswa. Jadi, sampel penelitian ini adalah 66 siswa. Data yang terkumpul dianalisis dengan menggunakan rumus t-test untuk mengetahui apakah ada pengaruh penggunaan physical line-up game terhadap prestasi grammar siswa pada kelas XI SMAN 3 Pamekasan. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa t-nilai (t0) lebih tinggi dari t-tabel (tt) baik 5% atau 1% di mana (5% = 1,67 <3,33) atau (1 % = 2,39 <3,33). Tetapi dalam hal ini, peneliti menggunakan signifikan pada 5% (5% = 1,67 <3,33). Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa Ha (Hipotesis Alternatif) diterima dan Ho (Null Hypothesis) ditolak.
