the effect of using english poetry on vocabulary mastery and writing skill of students of smp muhammadiyah 4 pekanbaru
This study investigates the effect of using English poetry on students’ vocabulary mastery and writing skill at the junior high school level. The research adopts a quasi-experimental design involving two classes: an experimental class taught through English poetry and a control class taught using conventional methods. Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests in writing, assessing five key aspects: content, organization, vocabulary, language use, and mechanics.
The statistical analysis included paired samples t-tests, independent samples t-tests, and a two-way ANOVA. The results of the paired samples t-test in the experimental group indicates a significant improvement in writing scores after treatment (p = 0.0029). The independent samples t-test reveales a significant difference between the post-test scores of the experimental and control classes (p = 0.000044), favoring the experimental group. The two-way ANOVA shows that while the individual writing aspects did not significantly differ, the group factor had a statistically significant impact (p = 0.031).
These findings demonstrate that using English poetry is an effective tool for improving students’ vocabulary mastery and writing skill. It not only enhances linguistic competence but also fosters creativity and engagement in language learning. The study recommends the integration of poetry into English teaching to enrich students' learning experiences and outcomes.
