Abstract

The research aims at (1) finding out whether the peer reviewing technique significantly improves writing skill of the students at the second years of SMA Negeri 2 Luwu, (2) finding out aspects of writing that improve significantly by using peer reviewing on EFL writing skills. This research applied a quasi-experimental design to two groups. The experimental group applied peer reviewing technique while the control group applied self reviewing technique.

The data were collected through written tests of pre-test and post-test for both class and the results of the test were analyzed by using SPSS version 20 program. The findings showed that there was an improvement on students’ writing ability after the treatment.
