Sig (2 – tailed) is 0.001 (p < 0.05), so, that H0 is rejected and Hi is accepted, it continue with the result of the effect size test using Pearson correlation r, and obtained r = 0.411  (16.94%)  and  categorized  in  medium  effect.  (2)  The  aspects  of  writing  in  the experimental group (PGBA); The percentage of Organization (16.08%) and Spelling (81.3%) scaled with excellent criteria.
