Writing ability is what people intend to say in written form. Writing is one of important parts in teaching language. Nevertheless, in SMA 1 Mejobo Kudus, the writer found that most of students there still get difficulties in studying writing, especially in writing recount text. it may be caused by the technique used in teaching English, especially writing recount text. The English teacher of tenth grade students of SMA 1 Mejobo Kudus use Group Discussion in teaching the students in the classroom. Group Discussion technique is catagorized as technique teaching which focuses on group work. The teacher never tries to use other technique in teaching learning process. This fact leads the writer to compare the technique that teacher use with other technique, i.e Think-Pair-Share technique. This research comparing think-pair-share and group discussion techniques on its effect to the students’ writing ability. The objective of this research is find out if there is a significant difference between writing ability of recount text of the tenth grade students of SMA 1 Mejobo Kudus in the first academic year 2013/2014 taught by using think-pair-share and group discussion techniques. The subject of the research is the tenth grade students of SMA 1 Mejobo Kudus in the first academic year 2013/2014. The samples are two groups of students placed in experiment and control groups. Purposive sampling is the sampling technique that is used. In this quantitative experimental research control group design without pre-test, the writer applies two learning technique to two homogenous groups of students as the treatment.. The data are gotten from students’ score of the writing test in the form of essay test to both groups. The data analysis shows that the use of think-pair-share technique perform better result than the use of group discussion technique with the mean score of the students taught by using think-pair-share technique is 81.86 and the standard deviation is 4.5 which is catagorized “very good”. Otherwise, the mean score of the students taught by using group discussion technique is 77.46 and the standard deviation is 5.15 which is catagorized “average”. The t-observation (to) is 5.57. It is higher than t-table (tt) 2.00 in the level of significance 0.05 and the degree of freedom (df) 72, (to= 5.57 > tt= 2.00). Therefore, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) of this research that state There is a significant difference in writing ability of recount text of tenth grade students of SMA 1 Mejobo Kudus in the academic year 2013/2014 taught by using think-pair-share and group discussion techniques is “confirmed’.
