Abstract:
This study investigates how the impact of mind-mapping techniques on improving students' narrative writing skills, addressing challenges in organizing thoughts, and creating coherent written work. The aim of the study is to determine if mind mapping can significantly enhance writing performance. Using a sequential explanatory design and mixed-method approach, the research examined the effects of mind mapping on students’ writing abilities. The results showed a marked improvement in writing, particularly in structure and clarity. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference between the two experimental groups, with the first group performing better, supported by a posttest result (p-value = 0.001, less than 0.05). Both groups expressed high satisfaction with mind mapping, finding it engaging and helpful. These findings suggest that mind mapping improves writing performance and enhances students' learning experience.
