states that the goal of teaching English at Senior High School is that the students 
must be able to develop communicative competence in written as well as in 
spoken to achieve functional literacy level. Writing is not only difficult to master 
by the students but also difficult to teach by the teachers. 
This research was designed to investigate whether Guided Questions could 
improve the student?s ability in writing recount text of the first year students of 
SMA N 1 Seputih Agung Lampung Tengah. The objective of this research is to 
find out whether there is significant improvement of the students? ability in 
writing recount text after being taught using Guided Questions. The design 
employed in this research is control group pretest-posttest design. The subjects 
were the first year students of SMA N 1 Seputih Agung Lampung Tengah.  
The finding of the research shows that the use of Guided Questions improves the 
students' ability in writing recount text. The computation of hypothesis test result 
using T-test shows that there is significant improvement of the students? ability in 
writing recount text after being taught using Guided Questions. The improvement 
of the average score of the students' writing can be seen from the experimental 
class pre-test (54.33) up to (70.08) in the post-test.  
Based on the result of the implementation of Guided Questions for teaching 
writing recount text, it is suggested that English teachers apply the technique, 
mainly to teach writing recount text. Moreover, for the future researchers, 
especially those who are interested in applying Guided Questions, it is suggested 
that they apply this technique for writing of other text types for examples 
descriptive, narrative, procedure, report other short functional text. }
