THE ROLE OF COHESION IN RECOUNT TEXTS : A CASE STUDY OF SECOND SEMESTER STUDENTS OF STMIK PROVISI IN ENGLISH 2 WRITING ASSIGNMENT

Qorinta Shinta

Abstract


This study is a descriptive research aiming at discovering to
what extent students applied cohesion in recount texts in their writing
assignment. The participants were STMIK PROVISI students taking
English 2. Data were taken from students’ writing assignments in June
2008 and they were gathered by applying qualitative methods. Results
indicated that most students were relatively aware of the stages in recount
texts even though some of them applied past and present tenses
interchangeably without any logical reasons. Referring to cohesive
devices, the students mostly used anaphoric reference, personal reference,
and demonstrative reference, as well as simple additive conjunction.


Keywords


Cohesion devices, recount text, STMIK PROVISI students
