Introduction
The objectives of the study are to show the effectiveness of mind mapping strategy to
teach to the students with high interest, to show the effectiveness of mind mapping strategy
to teach writing to the students with low interest, to describe the effectiveness of
brainstorming to teach writing to the students with high interest, to describe the
effectiveness of brainstorming to teach writing to the students with low interest, to explain
the significant difference in effectiveness between mind mapping and brainstorming
strategies to teach writing to the students with high, to explain the significant difference in
effectiveness between mind mapping and brainstorming strategies to teach writing to the
students with low interest, to explain the interactions among mind mapping, brainstorming
strategies and students interest to teach writing to the students.
According to Buzan (in Riswanto and Putra, 2012:62), mind mapping is a graphic
representation of ideas ( usually generated via a brainstorming session). It shows the ideas
which are generated around a central theme and how they are interlinked. It is a tool
primarily used for stimulating thought. He realized that the education system primarily
focused on the left and brain strength, which include the use of language, logic, numbers,
sequence, looks at detail, linear, symbolic representation and judgemental characteristics. It
is hoped that mind mapping strategy can be implemented in teaching and learning writing by
the students and the teacher.
METHOD
The research design of this research uses experimental research design with a factorial
design in which there is one dependent variable, two independent variables, and moderator
variable. Two independent variables are mind mapping strategy and brainstorming strategy.
While dependent variable is writing skill and the moderate variable is students’ interest.
According to Brown (2001:94), an experiment is a process or study that result in the
collection of the data. The result of experiments is not known in advance. Usually, statistical
experiments are conducted in situations in which researcher can manipulate the conditions
of the experiment and control the factors. The subject of the study is the students of SMK
Kesehatan Darussalam, while the object of the study is the students’ writing skill. In this
research, the researcher uses observation checklist, test, and questionnaire to collect the
data. Observation checklist is used in order to observe the condition of teaching and learning
process in the class. The test is used in order to get the data of writing. While the
questionnaire is used in order to get the data about students’ interest. The method of
collecting data in this research, the researcher will use written test. The test will be used to
collect data of students’ writing skill and to know the students’achievement. The method of
analyzing the data in this research are descriptive analysis and inferential analysis. The
researcher will use multifactor Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). ANOVA test is used to find
out whether the difference between them is significant or not. It is calculated by using SPSS
version 22.

and Experiment Class Two
There is no interaction among the strategies, students’ interest, and writing skill. In
here the researcher used ANOVA to analyze the result of the interaction among the
strategies, students’ interest, and writing skill. From the calculation, the significant value
was higher than 0.05 (0.612 > 0.05). It means that there is no interaction among the
strategies, students’ interest, and writing skill. Mind mapping strategy is more effective than
brainstorming strategy to both of high and low-interest students, but it does not depend on
the level of interest.
CONCLUSIONS
Based on the results above, it can be concluded as follows: The first result indicated
that there was a significant difference in the mean score between pre-test and post-test of
high-interest students taught by mind mapping strategy. The result is the mind mapping
strategy is effective to use in teaching writing to the students with high interest.
The second result indicated that there was a significant difference in the mean score
between the pre-test of experiment class one with low interest and the post test of
experiment class one with low interest. It means that mind mapping strategy is effective to
use in teaching writing to the students with low interest
The third result showed that there was a significant difference in the mean score
between the pre-test of experiment class two of students with high interest and that of the
post-test. It means that brainstorming strategy is effective to use in teaching writing to the
students with high interest.
The fourth result explained that there was a significant difference in the mean score
between the pre-test of the experiment class two of students with low interest and that of the
post-test. It means that the brainstorming is effective to use in teaching writing to the
students with low interest.
Answering the fifth question, there was a significant difference in the effectiveness of
mind mapping strategy and brainstorming strategy to teach writing to the students with high
interest. It can be seen from the mean score of the students in experiment class one with
high interest which was higher than that experiment class two. It means that mind mapping
is more effective than brainstorming strategy to use in teaching writing to the students with
high interest.
While the sixth result explained that there was a significant difference in effectiveness
between mind mapping strategy and brainstorming strategy to teach writing to the students
with low interest. The mean score of experiment class one of the students with low interest
was higher than that of experiment class two. It means that mind mapping was also more
effective than brainstorming strategy in teaching writing to the students with low interest.
The last result showed that there was no interaction among the strategies, students’
interest and the writing skill. Mind mapping strategy is better for both of high and low-
interest students. It means that mind mapping strategy is more effective than brainstorming
strategy, but it does not depend on the level of students interest.
From the whole results, this research has proven that mind mapping strategy and
brainstorming strategy can help the students in writing skill for both students with High and
low interest.
