Abstract

Literature, as a reflection of the socio-cultural conditions of society, must be passed down from generation to generation through the creative process of writing. The development of students’ writing skills and feedback on student writing from the teachers will have an impact on the quality of literary instruction in schools. Literature has great potential to help people change their character, increase their love for the homeland, inspire and be optimistic in facing a critical life, as well as shape people’s responsibility and increase their thinking skills. The current study aimed to measure the correlation between non-educational students’ literary appreciation behavior and acrostic poetry writing skills during the Online Tutorial (Tuton) sessions provided by the Indonesia Open University. The data set was designed in a quantitative study with a population of 238 students, of which 33 samples were obtained through random sampling technique. The results showed a positive correlation between the participants’ literary appreciation behavior (X) and acrostic poetry writing skills (Y), with a coefficient of 0.555 at a significance level of 0.001 (less than probability 0.05). The coefficient of determination ry2 indicated that X (literary appreciation behavior) contributed 30.8% to Y (acrostic poetry writing skills), whereas the regression equation of 57.919 + 0.246X indicated that an increase in one score in literary appreciation behavior (X) resulted in a 0.246X increase in acrostic poetry writing skills (Y) with a constant of 57.919. The correlation between X and Y was explained at sig < 0.05. Therefore, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted.
