Language learning strategies have been given more attention by researchers in the last couple of years. The Fact that although there are some strategy training models, there has not been any model specifically designed for writing. Hence, this study focused on developing writing strategy training to improve students’ autonomy in writing. This study was trying to find out: 1). How can writing strategy training be developed? 2). Does the students’ use of strategy improve after the strategy training? 3). Does the developed strategy training improve students’ autonomy? 4). Does the developed strategy training improve students’ writing? 5). What are the problems in implementing the developed strategy training?
After developing the writing strategy training model, it was tried out in a class of High Intermediate IV in an English course in Bandar Lampung. The class consisted of 19 senior high school students. This class was given the strategy training. The data were collected by giving a pre-test of learning strategy, autonomy and essay writing. The students were introduced with strategies based on the process of writing from topic selection, outlining, developing, correcting, revising, editing until publishing. After the strategy training, the students were given the post-test on the same aspects. The quantitative data was also supported by qualitative data collected through observation and interview.
The data were processed by comparing the mean of pre-test and post-test to see the improvement by using t-test. The results showed that 1). Writing strategy model could be developed by adapting from the existing model. 2). The developed strategy training model improved the students’ use of strategy. 3). The strategy training improved students’ autonomy. 4). The strategy training improved students’ writing, although not very significantly, but every aspect of writing improved. 5). There were some problems both from the students’ and teacher’s side. Although some difficulties were encountered, improvement was made in students’ strategy use, autonomy and every aspect of writing.
