SKRIPSI THE EFFECTIVENESS OF RAFT STRATEGY USING ANIMATED SHORT MOVIES AS LEARNING MEDIA TO IMPROVE THE EIGHTH GRADERS’ WRITING SKILLS OF NARRATIVE TEXT

---

Writing is a tricky productive skill in English as it requires students to put their ideas, vocabulary and sentences into written form. Many students find learning to write in English challenging, so they believe that writing is a difficult skill. They often struggle with generating ideas, organizing thoughts, and structuring texts. On top of that, students do not always know enough about the writing process, and teachers sometimes don't use writing strategies that are suitable for their students. This study aimed to find out if the RAFT (Role, Audience, Format, Topic) strategy, when used with Animated Short Movies, could effectively improve the narrative writing skills of eighth-grade students. It also sought to determine if there was a significant difference in writing skills between students taught with this strategy and those taught with the Story Mapping strategy, also using Animated Short Movies. A quantitative research approach with a quasi-experimental design and a Non-equivalent Control Group was used, involving a pre-test and a post-test. Two classes at SMP IT Ihsanul Fikri Kota Magelang, which is class VIII B as experimental group (25 students) and class VIII C as control group (26 students) were selected through purposive sampling. The data was analyzed using normality (Shapiro-Wilk) and homogeneity (Levene's test) assessments, followed by an Independent Sample t-test and a Normalized Gain Test to evaluate effectiveness and any significant differences between the groups. The study's findings showed a significant difference in writing outcomes between the two groups. The hypothesis test revealed a significant value (sig. (2- tailed) < 0.001), which is lower than the 0.05 significance level, leading to the rejection of the null hypothesis and acceptance of the alternative hypothesis. Furthermore, the N-gain test indicated that the experimental group achieved an average N-gain score of 63.8%, categorized as "moderately effective," while the control group's average N-gain score was 40.5%, categorized as "less effective." This suggests that the RAFT strategy combined with Animated Short Movies was effective in improving the narrative writing skills of eighth-grade students at SMP IT Ihsanul Fikri Kota Magelang
