INTRODUCTION

A.    Background of the Study
As we realize that English is popular since it becomes of International Language. It is used by milions of people all over the world. Nowadays, English has become the language of commerce, technology, politics as well as education.
For Indonesia, English is a foreign language. Learnig a foreign language is an integrated process that the learner should study the four basic skill : listening, speaking, reading and writing. We use it to understand our world through listening and reading and to communicative our feeling need and desire through speaking and writing. By having more knowledge about language skill we have much better chance of undestanding and being understood and getting what we want and need from these around us.
Writing is one of four basic skills, it is very important in teaching and learning English. Writing involves some language component (spelling, grammar, vocabulary, and punctuation).
We all realize how important English for our children. The authority was obliged all of Educational official in all province in Indonesia should provide the lesson in each school. All Indonesia people agree with this curriculum that could be make their children know English from beginning. More better than before which they took in years ago. All of the component in this nation should support this policy by all their ability.
There are so many things that can get from English. Like a senoir high school students, they can proceed in their academic achievement with English. As well all know, most of the source books, whether it is social or natural science are written in English.

Based on the problem above, so the writer has chosen Blogging to solve the writing process in the classroom. The student will more motivate to express their mind on the blogging because it is as like their personal diary. The student can express anywhere they want in classroom, their room or at the park.

THEORETICAL DESCRIPTION

A.    Definition of Teaching
Teaching is a process to give guidance the students to reach the goals. Teaching known as “Instruction” it means process that makes someone do learning. Teaching is a media for learning process includes behavior individual changes through pre- planned.
Teaching is an existing job. Today, many references help teachers to get some solutions of problems in teaching learning process. The teachers can use some references to find out some techniques of teaching in their classroom. On the other hand, teaching is not easy to do. The teacher should do much of his work before entering the classroom. According to Brown,
Teaching is a superior job, is the demanding job. Among the demanding tasks are modifying the approaches, Syllabus, technique, and exercises to adopt and maximize the learning of a class as well as of most of its individual members.[1]

It can be stated from the definition above that teaching is not just presenting information or knowledge to students, but it needs strategies and tactics. The teacher must decide what goals it would be best to teach and what strategies and tactics are best suited for teaching these goals.
According to Patricia, “It is important for teacher to include as many techniques as possible to enhance student learning”.[2] The knowledge gives the intelligence concerning to import, as a knowledge before unknown, or rules for practice to inculcate as true or important to exhibits impressively as, to teach arithmetic, dancing, music, or the like to teach morals.
The objective of language is to encourage effective communication in daily life, by practicing effective expression, increasing vocabulary, give sample opportunities that use language to describe, to compare and relate experiences, thoughts and felling, creating stories dramas, song, poems, etc. Language should be embedded throughout all activities.
Moreover, young learner can learn easily many languages. Young learner are equipped by language acquisition device, therefore, they will not have any difficulty to learn two or three different language at the same time.
B.     Writing
Writing is a method of representing language in visual or tactile form. Writing systems use sets of symbols to represent the sounds of speech, and may also have symbols for such things as punctuation and numerals.
1.      Definition of Writing
Writing is important part of language learning. There are many aspects point out that writing is an activity or occupation which is done by a person to express their ideas clearly in a written form to an intended audience. Writing is a mean to communicate, to convey message, ideas and printed word. And writing can also be read by anyone known as written language. "Learning to write in essence is a lesson about how to express one's ideas and feelings through the medium of writing"[3]. And another said “writing is expressing someone about their ideas, opinion, thinking, or feeling use language writing”[4]
The writing process that a person does, not only involve the ability to write correct and appropriate sentences, the ability to use spelling, punctuation, commas ect. But also the ability to think creatively excluding all information which is not necessary. It is generally a greed that learning to write well is a difficult and time consuming process. In order to write well an individual needs more than basic mechanical control, especially the non native students finishing a writing assignment or project even though she/he has sufficient mechanical ability in the foreign language. Therefore, writing process will be better if it involves the writers interest in writing.
Writing, as one of four skills taught in learning and teaching english is defined in many ways by many experts. Writing is making the ideas visible and available to readers whether on paper, computer screen or through some other medium; using the brain stroming notes, outlines or other results of planning activities to produce text. This complex activity involves everything from the physical act of shapes letters or making key strokes to the mental processes of choosing words, forming sentences, arranging paragraphs and structuring the organizations.
2.      Genre in English Writing
English writing have divided into some of parts, for example : descriptive text, procedure text, narrative text, recount text, and report text.
a)      Descriptive text is we write to discribe a particular person, place or thing.
b)      Procedure text is we write to discribe how something is accomplished through a sequence of action or steps.
c)      Narrative text is we write to amuse, entertain, and to deal with actual or vicarious experience in different ways.
d)     Recount text is we write to retell events for the purpose of imforming or intertaining.
e)      Report text is we write to discribe the ways things are with reference to a range of natural, man-made  and social phenomena in our environment
3.      The Nature of Writing
Learning writing means learn to organize the experience, information and ideas particularly different language pattern. To produce a good text of writing needs hard practice and process.
Writing is not only how to make sentences in paragraph, but also how to express the ideas in consecutive way through the appropriate graphic symbol and structure. David Nunas suggest; Writing is an extremely complex continue activity in which the writer required to demonstrate control of a number of variables simultaneously. To get fluent writing, the writer has to check some components such as word , grammar linking ideas and spelling before finishing the writing.
In order to make the activities of writing meaning full and understandable, the activities of writing must be communicative. The students should know exactly what they want to convey.
4.      The Writing Skill
Writing skills are essential for sharing information and documenting ideas. Building writing skills takes practice and hard work. Students must be taught the basics before they can be expected to produce quality writing. Once student master the basics, they will be ready to write both creatively and for a purpose.
Finch and Crunkilton said that “competence means the mastery of tasks, skills, behaviors, and rewards necessary for the success or an achievement”.[5] Padmadewi adds that competence is the ability in the subject and the lab to be possessed by the graduates; capabilities that should be done by the student. Basically, two opinions have the same idea about the notion that at its core competence refers to the ability of students to do something by a certain standard.
a)      Handwriting
Handwriting is the first in a series of skill that emergent writers develop. Though very basic, handwriting is important to academic success because handwriting forms a connection between the writer letter and the sound it represents. As students improve their hand writing skills, they become more confident in their writing ability. Student who struggle with handwriting are often frustrated with written expression and begin to dislike the writing process. Student can trace letter, “draw” letters in paint or shaving cream, use tweezers to move small objects and complete connect-the-dot pictures to build handwriting skills.
b)      Identification
Identifying aspects of the written word is an essential skill for emergent writers. When teaching writing at any level, identification strategies are used to improve writing. Beginning writers should be able to identify uppercase and lowercase letters and sounds associated with letters. As writing skills become more fluent, students should be taught to identify complete sentences, sentence fragments and run-ons. Students should also be able to identify topic sentences and supporting details. These identification strategies are skill that create strong writers. Help student master identification skills through use of graphic organizers, peer editing and exposure to good writing samples.
c)      Mechanics
Grammar, spelling, punctuation, or organization are important aspects of writing. Often, it is assumed that writers possess these basic skills, and therefore, both student and teachers are frustrated when they are not evident. Proper use of grammar and sentence structures makes student’s writing more effective. Spelling is equally as important because student may not use words they are not sure how to spell. Punctuating sentences give added meaning of writing, and organization of words and ideas is also impreative to getting a point across. Grammar and spelling can be taught through repetition and drill. Direct instruction in grammar is necessary for student to master this writing skill. Help student build confidence in their writing skills by helping them edit mechanical mistakes in their writing, or by allowing them to dictate ideas to you.
d)     Content
The most important aspect of writing, for many people is the content. Getting student to commnicate ideas is a skill that must be encouraged and cultivated. Sentence starters, journals and free-writers are good ways to build writing fluency and to encourage student to practice writing down thoughts. Continue building this skill by teaching student the value of drafts in writing. Prewritten,or brainstorm for ideas, the write a rough draft. Edit and revise a rough draft until you are pleased with the final product. The drafting process is a valueable skill for all writers and will give student a final product they can be proud of.
5.      The Writing Process : Strategies For Writing
a.      Self questioning - Asking themselves questions about their writing to establish audience and purpose in their own minds, for example:
         Why am I writing this text?
         Who am I writing for?
         What kind of language do I need to use?
         What do I need to tell them?
         How will I organize my work?
b.      Planning content - Thinking about plot, theme, information content, etc., to suit the task through:
·         brainstorming ideas, alone or with others
         researching the topic in books or on-screen, and making notes
         using other resources to stimulate and/or inform.
c.       Sounding out - Rehearsing what is to be written orally prior to writing in small groups or with talk partners and experimenting until it sounds right. ‘If they can’t think it, they can’t write it.’
d.      Writing first draft Getting something down on paper or on-screen. Focusing on the sequence of ideas/content. ‘Having a go’ at problematic spelling at this stage using spelling strategies specifically taught. This is especially important for under at training learners and dyslexics/learners with specific learning difficulties (SpLD) who should not be allowed to become demotivated by errors or poor handwriting.
e.       Revising the text - Reading what has been written aloud to a partner or to self. This highlights omissions, grammatical inconsistencies, etc., that might not be apparent if the work is read silently since the writer will often ‘read’ what should be there rather than what is actually on the page. Reviewing the text and identifying :
         whether or not the text makes sense
         whether or not it needs further detail to support the plot, add to description or provide missing information
         whether or not the tone is appropriate for the audience
         whether or not anything needs to be omitted because it is repetitive or irrelevant, etc.
and making revisions on paper or on-screen.
d.      Editing - Checking:
         organisation/sequencing of ideas/events/paragraphs to ensure writing is coherent
         spelling, punctuation and grammar.
e.       Preparing final copy - Producing a final copy suitable for ‘publication’, preferably for a real audience, paying attention to presentation either in legible handwriting or through using ICT

D.    Teaching Writing Skill by Using Blogging
Espicially in teaching writing, these is make a big succes in learning writing :
·      The learning and studying process.
Often happen, the learning and studying process writing skill in the classroom is still very simple. Teacher explain about the material, and then students is writing, then make evaluation by teacher and give some comments. Nothing process that able give understanding to improve the student’s writing.
·         Feedback.
Feedback is the most improtant in writing activity. However, often never give  feedback process variously between students and teacher. The teacher usually give more comments so just one purpose in teaching writing. The students do not know what happen for their writing because after they finish writing, they must collect to the teacher for correction.
·         Assessment standards.
Assessment standards used must be clear so as not to invite questions the validity of the values ​​obtained will be students.
·         Creativity and Innovation
These shades can also work very oentik in the process of learning to write. However, the lack of nuance in the creative and innovative learning in the classroom is often 'just happen where all the writing is done in class so that it looks monotonous, less' challenging' exploration of student knowledge.
·         Motivation.
Motivation is an internal factor that oenting to help someone obtain better results. Students who have low motivation in following the studying will certainly affect their success in learning to write so that in the end, the students are not able to produce a good writing and in accordance with the demands of the curriculum after completing the studying.
Blogging, similarly to online threaded discussion groups, is an easy way to engage in students’ writing to the classroom. It is an effective way to manage the lodgement, marking and return of student assessment with no fuss. Blogging with Google’s blogger.com, LiveJournal.com, and WordPress.com is free and easy to set up, manage, and update without additional support. As many students are active users of Facebook, Twitter, hi5, they become familiar with blogging. Jati said that :
“By utilizing free blogging services on the Internet, teachers are capable of creating and storing online supplemental materials for students, post class notes for student review, and give general feedback to the class as whole and individually. Additionally, students are able to submit assignments online.”[8]

The rationale behind blogging is that it is very convenient for users to check changes one has done to his/her blog. While with other tools, a user needs to “check in” occasionally to see if there is any new content posted, blogs make use of a “publish-subscribe” model, in which the subscribers receive notifies when new content has been posted. In the writing classroom; therefore, blogs are qualified as a pedagogical tool. They can replace the cycle of steps in developing essay: brainstorming, writing, submitting, receiving feedback, revising writing, and resubmitting. Blogs clearly benefit the writing classroom. Blogs enable the instructor and students communicate through and about writing. Both sides easily update an online writing.



E.     Advantages of Using Blogging in Teaching Writing Skill

Menabung di Bank atau Investasi plus Insurance 3i-Networks

Apa perbedaannya dengan kita menabung di bank? Kenapa kita harus berinvestasi di 3i-Networks? Pertama – tama marilah kita lihat perbedaan kalau kita menabung di BANK dan Investasi CARLink Pro Mixed. Dari gambar di bawah ini, kita bisa melihat perbedaan yang jauh sekali kalau kita menabung di BANK dan CAR. Nah, hitungan kasarnya begini : Rp. 350.000,- x 60 (5 tahun) = Rp. 21.000.000,- Rp. 21.000.000,- + Rp. 420.000,- = Rp. 21.420.000,- (kita anggap bunga bank 2% berarti Rp. 350.000 x 2% = Rp. 7.000,-; Trus Rp. 7.000,- x 60 = Rp. 420.000,-; yang mana sulit sekali tercapai di bank sekarang) Rp. 21.420.000,- – Rp. 600.000,- =  Rp. 20.820.000,-  (Kita anggap biaya admin bank Rp. 10.000 x 60) Dengan jumlah yang sama Rp. 350.000,- per bulan selama 5 tahun, uang yang kita tabung adanya malah berkurang, bukan bertambah.. dalam ilustrasi di atas, saya hitung dengan bunga tinggi 2% dan admin hanya Rp. 10.000,- saja, padahal kita semua mengetahui kalau bunga di bank 2 % adala

DALIL NAQLI (AL-QUR’AN & HADITS) HARAMNYA PEMIMPIN KAFIR

Aby Zen & Umy Windy – Banyak yang lalai dari kita Umat Islam dengan alasan toleransi, rela menyerahkan urusan dunianya hingga akhirat ke selain Umat Islam. Akibatnya hak-hak kita sebagai Umat Islam di abaikan bahkan di lindas dengan kerakusan, dan kebengisan mereka yang dasarnya memang begitu licik dan kafir. Menjadikan orang kafir sebagai pemimpin bagi umat Islam berarti menentang Alloh SWT dan Rasulullah SAW serta Ijma' Ulama. Memilih orang kafir sebagai pemimpin umat Islam berarti memberi peluang kepada orang kafir untuk "mengerjai, mempermainkan" umat Islam dengan kekuasaan dan kewenangannya. Berikut ini adalah sejumlah Dalil Qur'ani beserta Terjemah Qur'an Surat (TQS) yang menjadi dasar untuk bersikap dalam memilih pemimpin : 1.          Al-Qur'an melarang menjadikan orang kafir sebagai Pemimpin : a.     QS. Aali 'Imraan : 28. "Janganlah orang-orang mukmin mengambil orang-orang kafir menjadi WALI (PEMIMPIN / PELINDUNG) dengan meni
