writing ability before and after being taught by using the integration the two
techniques, (2) the aspect of writing which is affected the most by using the
integration of the two techniques, (3) the students‟ perception towards the
implementation of the integration of the two techniques. In the context of

and perception questionnaire. The data were analyzed by using paired-sample t-
test. The results showed the students‟ writing achievement increased from 66.08
to 79.14. The p value is lower than 0.05, meaning that there is a significant
difference of students‟ writing ability between pretest and posttest. As for writing
aspects, the most affected one was content. The students‟ perception about the
implementation of technique showed a positive result. Thus, the integration of the
