Abstract

Writing English remains a difficult skill for EFL students of senior high school since they rarely practice English in daily life. In several cases, peer correction was successfully conducted for undergraduate students but it is required to test at senior high school level by combining the genre-based approach in teaching writing. Thus, this study aims at investigating the effectiveness of peer correction for students' writing skill at the first grade of MA Ma’arif NU Blitar. This research was classified as a quasi-experimental study which involved 58 students from two existing groups as experimental and control group. Class XD consists of 28 students as the experimental group who were taught by applying peer correction and class X-E also consists of 28 students as the control group who were taught by applying self-correction. The treatment was conducted by combining methods (peer correction and self-correction) with the genre-based approach in teaching writing as line as the K13 curriculum. The data were obtained by two essays writing of recount text which are pre-test and post-test. To test the hypothesis, an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used by using software SPSS 24. The results show that both peer correction and self-correction increased. There is a significant difference between peer correction and self-correction (.000 < .05) which means that peer correction is better than self-correction. In addition, the mean score in the post-tests of both the experimental group and control group are higher than the pretests of both groups. Therefore, the alternative hypothesis is accepted and the null hypothesis is rejected. In other words, peer correction is effective to improve students' writing skill at the first grade of MA Ma’arif NU Blitar. Nevertheless, conducting the research in a larger sample is highly recommended to avoid errors and distinguish exceptions that might skew the data in a smaller sample.
