Abstract

Writing comments on viral phenomena and events through social media is extremely chatty, long and ease. This is due to the fact that the phenomena and events are presented in a compelling way, with satirical language that inspires others to post their comments without being asked and without standard structures. The fact however, numerous activities and strategies to enhance writing skills among non-English learners continue to experience various problems. Accordingly, it is essential to have learning alternatives in order to meet an effective learning process especially in English writing. The current research focused on the students’ writing ability after using story circle technique with a total of 35 freshmen of Visual and Communication Design Study Program involved during the study. An experiment of one-shot case study design was applied to find out and measure the influence of the technique on the students’ narrative writing after giving several treatments. The initial results revealed that the technique has significantly influenced their ability in developing a story. By adopting an assessment in order to observe the text on the organization, content, grammar, mechanics and vocabulary choice, the technique has also successfully inspired the students to have a creative way to develop a story.
