Abstract

ABSTRACT Meilandia Anggraini, 2025 : The Analysis of Students Writing Ability in SMAN 8 Rejang Lebong” Advisor : Dr. Eka Apriani, M.Pd Co-Advisor : Jumatul Hidayah, M.Pd This research investigates the writing ability of students at SMA Negeri 8 Rejang Lebong, focusing on their proficiency, obstacles, and the contributing factors that hinder their writing tasks. A mixed-method approach was employed, incorporating both a writing test and interviews with students from grades XI IPA and IPS. The study revealed that nearly 48% of students (50 out of 115) scored below the minimum passing grade (KKM) of 70, indicating significant challenges in writing, particularly in descriptive tasks. The obstacles students encountered ranged from cognitive difficulties, such as organizing thoughts and generating ideas, to language proficiency issues, emotional barriers, and environmental factors. The analysis identified several key factors contributing to these challenges, including individual factors like lack of confidence, limited vocabulary, and cognitive overload, as well as instructional issues such as ineffective teaching strategies, insufficient feedback, and inadequate writing practice. Contextual factors, such as time constraints and limited resources, along with emotional factors like anxiety and stress, further exacerbated the difficulties. The study highlights the importance of adopting a comprehensive approach to improving writing abilities, emphasizing effective teaching methods, peer collaboration, consistent practice, and the provision of a supportive learning environment. The findings suggest that addressing these multifaceted challenges could significantly enhance students’ writing skills at SMA Negeri 8 Rejang Lebong.
