3. Problem : Many students in Indonesia have difficulty and feel bored in learning
English, especially in learning descriptive text.

4. Method : In this study the researcher will be use experimental quantitative

research. Experimental research will be used by researcher to evaluate the effect
ofindependent variables on different variables or the casual relationship between
variables. The researcher goal in this study is to peer how effect of the profile facebook
as media in teaching writing descriptive text to eleventh grade at SMA Singosari Delitua.
Experimental research, According to Ary (2010:26), Test is a scientific research in which
writer manipulates one or more independent variables and observes the effect of
the manipulation at the dependent variable (s) with the aid of using experimental
study, the sample devided into two companies, they’re the experimental and control
class. The students will be taught by using profile facebook as their media and in control
class without using profile facebook both of the groups will get pre-test and post-test

5. Data, Collecting data and Analysis data : As an experimental group, the researcher
used class XI IPA which consisted of 10 students, while as a control group, the
researcher took 10 students from class XI IPS. Then the researcher gave pre-test
and post-test for both assessments. The researcher taught descriptive text using
facebook profile picture media to the experimental group and general material from
textbooks to the control group. The mean score of the pre-test in the perimental
class was 51.7 and the post-test was 84.9. The mean pre-test score in the une control
group was 63 andthe post-test was 70. This was done so that the average score of
the experimental group was higher than the control group.

6. Result : The results showed that the average pre-test value of the experimental
class was 51,8. Meanwhile, the control class was 40,00. while the post-test average
value of the experimental class was 78. Meanwhile, the control class was 45,9. That is,
the average post-test score of the experimental class was higher than that of the control
class. The results of the t-test calculation show that the t-test value is higher than the t-
table value. The t-test value is 17,387 while the t-table value with db:38 which is
 included in the db=40 category is 2.21. This means that there is a significant the
effect of brainstorming techniquein writing Analytical exposition Text So, Ha is
accepted and Ho is rejected.

7. Conclusion : The results of t-count t-table as a significance level of p-0.05 (9.93

> 1.734). The alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted and thenull hypothesis (Ho)
is rejected. So, it can be stated that the hypothesis "the use of facebook profile
pictures for learning to write descriptive texts in class XI students of SMA
Singosari Delitua for the academic year 2022/2023 is effective" is accepted.

My Comment :

1. A good research method, experimental quantitative research design that can solve a

10. Problem : The errors that students may not pay attention to in writing a text. such as
the relationship between one sentence and another, improper writing of punctuation, poor
paragraph writing, inappropriate use of tenses, etc.

11. Method : The research design used in this research is quantitative experimental.
The purpose of this study was to see whether using brainstorming learning
techniques could improve students' ability to ask questions and express opinions in
writing analytical exposition texts. The population was at SMA N 1 Lintong Nihuta.
The sample was 2 classes, namely class XI iss-3 as the experimental class with
20 students and class XI iss-4 as the control class with 20 students.it means there are 40
students While the control group will only use a standard approach to learning, the
researcher will use the brainstorming teaching style in the experimental class. In this
study, researchers used SPSS version 22 software to calculatethe reliability and
validityof the test.

12. Data, Collecting data and Analysis data : in this study the researchers took two classes as
samples. They were 20 students in the experimental class and 20 students in the control
class. Data collection techniques are tests and documentation. The researcher used the
T-test statistical calculation to analyze the data. The tests used were pre-test and
post-test for both classes.

13. Result : The results showed that the average pre-test value of the experimental
class was 51,8. Meanwhile, the control class was 40,00. while the post-test average
value of the experimental class was 78. Meanwhile, the control class was 45,9. That is,
the average post-test score of the experimental class was higher than that of the control
class. The results of the t-test calculation show that the t-test value is higher than the t-
table value. The t-test value is 17,387 while the t-table value with db:38 which is
included in the db=40 category is 2.21. This means that there is a significant the
effect of brainstorming techniquein writing Analytical exposition Text So, Ha is
accepted and Ho is rejected.
14. Conclusion : The results showed that the post-test mean of the experimental class
(78.00) was higher than that of the control class (51,8). It was found that the comparison
between thescores of students who were taught brainstorming techniques and those who
were not was 17,387. This value is higher than ttable which is 2.21 at a significant level
of 5% with db = 38 which is included in the db: 40 categories. This means that ha is
accepted and Ho is rejected. So it can be concluded that the brainstorming technique is
effective for learning to write analytical exposition texts, especially for class XI students
of SMA Negeri 1 Lintong Nihuta.

My Comment :

1. A good research method, experimental quantitative design determine whether the

Facebook profile picture media was effective or not in learning descriptive texts in class
