Both the experimental group and the control group comprised 30 respondents who are sixth form students of SMK Rantau Panjang, Kelantan. The experimental group was exposed to the ‘tree-diagram’ writing strategy for a period of one month. This meant a total exposure of sixteen 40-minute period for the duration of the month. Both the groups were subjected to a pre-test at the onset of the experiment and a post-test one month later. A t-test showed that there was a significant difference between the pre-test and the post-test writing marks of the experimental group whereas no significant difference was found in the control group. A similar t-test showed that there was a significant difference in the grammar scores of the experimental group but none for the control group. There was also a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test motivation score of the experimental group. However, a t-test indicated that there was no significant difference in the motivational scores of the males and females at the conclusion at the experimental period. 2009-04 Thesis NonPeerReviewed text en http://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/34382/1/34382.pdf Husain, Ab.
