Abstract

The primary goal of this research is to find out whether using Instagram gives a significant effect on students’ writing skills, especially in writing recount text. The object of this research consisted of 50 students who were divided into two classes, namely class X 6 as the control class and class X 3 as the experimental class.

This present research is a quantitative study conducted in the form of a quasi-experimental design. To collect the data, the researcher applied cluster random sampling. A writing test was used as the instrument of data collection, consisting of a pre-test and a post-test. The formula used to analyze the data was the independent sample t-test. The purpose of giving the pre-test and post-test was to determine the differences in students’ writing skills before and after the treatment using Instagram. The result of the pre-test showed that the experimental class obtained an average score of 57,6, while the control class obtained 58,2. After the treatment was given, the post-test results showed that the experimental class reached an average score of 76,6 and in control class obtained 55.5.

Based on the analysis result, the independent sample t-test showed that the Sig. (2-tailed) value was 0.000, which is lower than α = 0.05. It means that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted. In other words, there is a positive and significant effect of using Instagram on students’ writing recount text. Therefore, Ha is accepted and Ho is rejected. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that using Instagram can improve the students’ ability in writing recount text of the tenth graders at MA Ma’arif NU 5 Sekampung.
