Abstrak

This study aims to determine the difference between learning to write poetry using the video critic method and learning to write poetry without using the video critic method and to determine the effect of the video critic method on the ability to write poetry in class X high school students. The type of research carried out is quantitative with an experimental method that uses a research design of Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design. The population in this study were all students of class X SMA Nurul Iman Tanjung Morawa, with a sample consisting of two classes, namely class X IIS 1 as the control class and class X MIA 1 as the experimental class. Each class consists of 30 students who are selected using the Simple Random Sampling technique by means of a lottery. Data collection techniques are used in the form of pretest and posttest. The results showed that: 1) the average pretest score for the control class was 41.73 with a maximum score of 52 and a minimum score of 32 and an average post-test score for the control class of 66.13 with a maximum score of 76 and a minimum score of 56. while the acquisition of the average pretest value for the experimental class is 46.53 with a maximum value of 60 and a minimum value of 36 and the posttest average value for the experimental class is 70.33 with a maximum value of 84 and a minimum value of 60, 2) the results of hypothesis testing which was consulted with the table at a significant level of 5% with df = N - nr = (60-2) = 58, obtaining a t-table value of 2.39 which is smaller than t-count, which is 3.785 (3.785 > 2.39). So with a significant value of 0.00 <0.05, it indicates that H0 is rejected and H1 is accepted, 3) the results of the calculation of the value of d (large influence) obtain a value of 0.6 with the percentage of effect caused by 38.2% in the high category. Therefore, based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the video critic method has a high effect on the ability to write poetry in class X students of SMA Nurul Iman Tanjung Morawa in the 2021-2022 academic year.
