Evaluasi Perkembangan Literasi Menulis melalui Analisis Logiko-Semantik: Studi Perbandingan Teks Argumentatif di Sekolah dan Perguruan Tinggi
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aims to examine the development of students' writing literacy across educational levels. The research questions to be answered are: 1) How does writing literacy, in terms of logico-semantic aspects, develop in argumentative texts between high school students and university students? And 2) Are there significant differences in the logico-semantic structure of argumentative texts between high school students and university students? The method used is a comparative study with high school students and university students as subjects. Data in the form of argumentative paragraph texts were collected and analyzed using logico-semantic analysis, which involves the identification and assessment of the structure and logical relationships between clauses. The results of the study indicate a significant development of writing literacy from high school students to university students, marked by an increase in complexity and variation in the use of logico-semantic relations. University students' texts show better argument quality and coherence. This study suggests the need for systematic development of argumentative writing instruction from school to university, with a focus on strengthening text structure, logic, use of evidence, and more complex use of logico-semantic relations.
