the academic year 2023/2024. The samples of this research were two classes, X3
and X6. Both of classes consisted of 37 students. The research was factorial design

test and Chi-Square for independence.

between students who are taught through collaborative writing and those who are
taught through Mind Mapping through Collaborative Writing. The significant value
was 0.000 and it was lower than 0.05. There was no significant difference of
students? writing ability of extrovert and introvert students. It could be seen from
the significant value 0.618 in pre-test score and 0.105 in post test score, both scores
were higher than 0.05. There was no interaction between those strategies and
students? personality styles on writing ability. it could be seen from the significant
value 0.354 that was higher than 0.05. Therefore, it can be concluded that both
collaborative writing and mind mapping through collaborative writing can improve
students? writing ability. Nevertheless, mind mapping through collaborative writing
was better than collaborative writing. The extrovert and introvert students were
successful in improving their writing ability after learning with collaborative
