Abstract

he purpose of this research is to apply a genre-based approach to improve
students' writing skills as an approach to assist the learning process. This research was conducted in class VIII MTS N 1 East Lampung, and the population of this class consisted of twenty seven students. The problem in this study is that students experience difficulties in composing writing and lack of understanding, especially in the aspect of writing. This study uses Classroom Action Research (CAR). This research was conducted in two cycles. Each cycle consists of planning, action, observation and reflection. In collecting data, researchers used tests, observations, field notes and documentation.

The test results showed an increase from the pre-test and post-test. the average score of students during the pre-test was 53.36 then in the post-test I it increased to 68.18. From cycle I the learning target had not been achieved because students who scored more than 75 were only 10 students out of 27 students. This means that only 37% get a score according to the criteria while the target to be achieved is 70%. In cycle II there was an increase from the results of the posttest I 68.18 to 80.46 in the posttest II. In this cycle the learning target was achieved, because 89% of students scored more than 75. In addition, student activity also increased, from 63.75% in cycle I to 85.75% in cycle II. The conclusion is that using a genre-based approach can improve students' writing skills and learning activities.
