High schools description: The purpose of this research was to investigate the influence of the PLEASE strategy on eighth-grade students' writing skills in recount texts at SMPN 13 Kota Serang. This research used a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental design. The researcher selected class VIII-A as the experimental group, with 42 students and class VIII-E as the control group, with 40 students. Data were gathered via writing tests, which consisted of both a pre-test and a post-test. The results revealed that the experimental group had an average post-test score of 80.05, while the control group had an average score of 74.12. A two-tailed significance value (p) of 0.002 was less than 0.05 according to the Independent T-test. The alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted, while the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected. Thus, the PLEASE strategy assisted students in planning, arranging, and minimising their workload, which had a major influence on their writing skills. It can be concluded that the PLEASE strategy significantly and positively influences students' skills to write recount texts. date: 2026-02-08 type: Thesis type: NonPeerReviewed format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58133/1/MEISYA_2223200083_FULLTEXT.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58133/2/MEISYA_2223200083_01.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58133/3/MEISYA_2223200083_02.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58133/4/MEISYA_2223200083_03.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58133/5/MEISYA_2223200083_04.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58133/6/MEISYA_2223200083_05.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58133/7/MEISYA_2223200083_REFF.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58133/8/MEISYA_2223200083_LAMP.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58133/9/MEISYA_2223200083_CP.pdf identifier: Meisya, Meisya (2026) The Influence of PLEASE Strategy on Students' Writing Skills on Recount Text in Eighth Grade at SMPN 13 Kota Serang.
