Abstract

Tesis ini mendiskusikan tentang diktasi, listening, dan penulisan naratif. Peneliti menggunakan factorial design dalam memilih latar belakangnya. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian quantitative. Metode yang digunakan adalah studi eksperimental. Sebelum penelitian dilakukan peneliti membagi kelas menjadi kelas eksperimen dan control. Tes diklasifikasikan kedalam auditory dan visual learner. Penelitia mencoba menggunakan ANOVA untuk mendapat data final. Oleh karena beberapa karakter ANOVA yang menyebabkan data distribusi tidak normal, peneliti menggunakan Kurskall-Walls tes dilanjut dengan pos-hoc ANOVA untuk menemukan signifikansi  dari strategi diktasi dan listening. Hasil menunjukan bahwa diktasi lebih efektif untuk mengajar naratif dibandingkan listening.
