Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the Effect of the Point Illustration Explanation (PIE) Strategy on Students' Writing Skills in Descriptive Texts at the Tenth Grade of SMAN 1 Malingping, Lebak-Banten, in the 2023/2024 academic year. The PIE strategy involves using concrete examples, in-depth explanations, and clear illustrations to help students understand and develop their descriptive writing skills. This quantitative study employs a quasi-experimental method with a sample of 74 tenth-grade students divided into an experimental class (using the PIE strategy) and a control class (using the KWL strategy). Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests, and analysed using normality tests, homogeneity tests, and paired t-tests with SPSS 22. The results indicate a significant effect of the PIE strategy on students' descriptive writing skills, as evidenced by a t-value of -28.066 with df 74 and a two-tailed significance of 0.000, meaning Ha is accepted and Ho is rejected. In conclusion, the PIE strategy significantly improves the descriptive writing skills of tenth-grade students at SMAN 1 Malingping, enhancing their understanding of descriptive writing structures and techniques, increasing motivation, helping them develop ideas more thoroughly, and improving their ability to present clear and creative descriptions.
