Abstract

Teaching is an operational step or implementation of selected learning strategies in achieving learning objectives. The accuracy of using a method will show the functioning of a teaching. One of the methods used by teachers in this research is mind mapping. Mind mapping is a learning method used to train the ability to present the content of learning material using mind maps. Through this learning method, students know the essence of the problem because they read the material as a whole, then students can create their own mind maps according to their individual creativity.
The aims of this research are (1)to explain the implementation of mind mapping in teaching writing at MTsN 6 Ponorogo.Furthermore, it also (2)identifes the factors that hinder students and teachers as well as alternative solutions in making Mind Mapping in teaching writing at MTsN 6 Ponorogo.
This research was designed using qualitative descriptive. Data collection was collected through observation, interviews and documentation to gain the data related to the implementation of Mind Mapping to train students' critical thinking in writing classes as well as factors inhibiting students and teachers in using mind mapping and alternative solutions. Participants came from teachers and students of MTsN 6 Ponorogo, for data analysis using Miles and Huberman with data reduction, data presentation and drawing conclusions.
This research shows that (1)the use of mind mapping applied by teachers in writing classes at MTsN 6 Ponorogo is as follows. The first step, before the teacher enters the class, the teacher will says greeting and invites students to pray. Then, the teacher discusses the previous material. The teacher also asked students about their understanding of mind mapping. In the second step, the teacher gives an example of how to make a mind map on the blackboard and then the students also ask about the Mind Mapping that the teacher drew on the blackboard. At the post-activity stage, the teacher will look at the students' Mind Mapping and then assess it. After that the teacher reviews the material that has been studied that day. (2)Then, there are several obstacles experienced by students and teachers in using this method in learning. The obstacles experienced by students are difficulty in determining the concept or model of Mind Mapping and difficulty in entering material into Mind Mapping because they have to determine the material points. The solution used by students to overcome this problem is that students look for more references about mind mapping on Google or books, to determine the points that students will include in Mind Mapping. Students summarize the material and select important core material to be used as subchapters. The obstacle experienced by teachers when using the Mind Mapping method is that students are found to be passive and not creative during the learning process. The solution used by teachers to overcome this problem is to approach students and provide motivation, as well as suggestions for providing colors and pictures to make mind mapping more interesting and the learning atmosphere more enjoyable.
