Daftar Isi:
- Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh penerapan Sentence Combining Practice pada prestasi siswa dalam menulis teks deskriptif. Sampel dari penelitian ini adalah 35 siswa kelas X.4 yang dipilih dengan menggunakan teknik lotere. Instrumen untuk mengumpulkan data adalah tes tertulis. Rumus Pearson Product Moment diaplikasikan untuk memperoleh keandalan tes. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa keandalan pre-test adalah 0,81 dikategorikan sebagai keandalan sangat tinggi, sementara keandalan post-tes adalah 0.70 dikategorikan kehandalan tinggi. Setelah menganalisis data, ditemukan bahwa nilai t observed adalah -9,575 dengan derajat kebebasan (df) = 34 pada tingkat signifikansi (a = 0,05). Ini berarti bahwa t observed lebih tinggi dari t (9,575> 2,0301). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa Sentence Combining Practice memiliki pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap prestasi siswa dalam menulis teks deskriptif.

The samples of the research were 35 students of class X.4 which were chosen by using lottery technique. The instrument for collecting the data was a writing test. Pearson Product Moment formula was applied to obtain the reliability of the test. Based on the calculation, it showed that the reliability of the pre-test was 0.81 categorized as very high reliability, meanwhile reliability of the post test was 0.70 categorized as high reliability. After analyzing the data, it was found that the value of t was -9.575 with the degree of freedom (df)=34 at the level of significance (a = 0.05).
