Yakub Nasucha, Haris Mudjiman

Abstract: The study aims to describe an effective learning of exposition writing with sequential jigsaw method at SMA Negeri State Senior High School, Karanganyar regency, Central Java, Indonesia. A teacher-centered learning makes students uncreative and silent participants. In addition, the teachers always employ a conventional method so that it makes the interaction between teachers and students ineffective and boring. With a cooperative method such as jigsaw as a student-centered, in contrast, it seems that there is a closer interaction between teachers and students so that it makes the students feel comfortable. The finding of the study shows that a learning method of jigsaw method called Jigsaw Innovation relates to producing a material of exposition text. The sequential activities include six stages (1) conditioning, (2) operating/writing sequentially, (3) discussing, (4) presenting, (5) writing independently, and (6) scoring. The results of the study state that the learning method of sequential jigsaw makes the students more active, creative, and effective than the conventional one. It is indicated with t-test where a value of t-count is higher than t-table (5, 529 > 1, 645).
