This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of the Collaborative Writing method in improving the ability of tenth-grade students to write recount texts through an experimental approach comparing an experimental class and a control class. The total population in this study consists of 61 students divided into two classes. The researcher selected two classes as the research sample, one as the experimental class taught using the Collaborative Writing method and the other as the control class taught without the Collaborative Writing method. In conducting the research, the researcher employed an experimental method. Writing tests or t-tests were used to measure students’ writing abilities through the Collaborative Writing method. Students were asked to describe their experiences, and the test results were recorded as data on students’ writing abilities, assessed using the scoring system proposed by Yendra Pratial. The researcher determined the average value (x) and variance (s²) before applying the t-test formula. The average score of the experimental class taught using the Collaborative Writing method was x²ratio = 7.77, while the average score of the control class taught using direct instruction was x²ratio = 7.23. The null hypothesis (H₀) is rejected if x²ratio ≥ x²table(1-α) (k-3). At a 5% significance level, x²table = 7.81, and at a 1% significance level (α=0.01), x²table = 11.3. Based on these results, the null hypothesis (H₀) was accepted. The researcher used the cluster random sampling technique to select the sample, and the t-test statistical formula was employed to test the hypothesis in this study. Based on data analysis results, the researcher found that the t-test > t-table (t-test = 3.10, and t-table = 2.70 at the 1% significance level, and t-table = 2.02 at the 5% significance level). This indicates a positive influence of collaborative writing on students’ ability to write recount texts.
