Abstract

This research, conducted at SMAN 6 Sidrap. The purpose of this research is to know the significance improvement of students ability in writing by using discovery method eleventh grade students at SMAN 6 Sidrap. In this research addresses the challenges in the English writing learning process. Pre-observations identified issues in both teacher and student aspects, where traditional lecture methods were prevalent, hindering students' active engagement. Despite the successful implementation of the discovery learning method in other subjects, English classes remained conventional. Students' disinterest in English, attributed to its perceived difficulty and a lack of vocabulary, posed additional hurdles in mastering English writing. Motivated by these findings, the researcher embarked on an experimental study to assess the efficacy of the Discovery Learning Model in enhancing the writing skills of eleventh-grade students at SMAN 6 Sidrap. Many students expressed difficulty in learning English, particularly in the context of writing texts, making the need for effective pedagogical interventions crucial. Using a pre-experimental design, the research involved 30 eleventh-grade students over a 45-day period, incorporating pre-test and post-test assessments. Descriptive analysis, facilitated by the SPSS application, provided insights into the effectiveness of the implemented teaching approach. Results revealed a noteworthy transformation in students' writing skills. Prior to the intervention, only 14% achieved a very good score, with the majority falling into the good category. Post-treatment, all students exhibited a remarkable improvement, attaining very good scores. This study underscores the positive influence of the Discovery Learning Model on English writing skills, offering valuable implications for pedagogical practices in language education.
