Mr. Bean videos was proposed to be applied in the teaching of writing not only because it is interesting and attracting but also because it is a good medium to introduce and present the content organization and the grammatical feature of recount text since recount texts consist of series of events or experiences in the past usually in the order they occured. In addtion some previous studies found that video/film is able to stimulate the students to be more actively involved in the writing activity so their writing ability can be enhanced. This study used action research design. The researcher and her collaborative teacher worked together in designing the lesson plan setting the criteria of success implementing the action observing the action and making reflection. The subjects of this study were VIII-C students of MTs Negeri Terate Sumenep of the 2010/2011 academic year. This study was conducted by following the procedures of the action research i.e. planning implementing observing and reflecting.

In BKoF and MoT the students were given a recount text then the students analyzed the generic structure language features and the connectors used in the text. After that the researcher gave a modelling on how to write a recount paragraph based on Mr. Bean video. In JCoT the students wrote a recount paragraph in group following the procedure in modelling. In ICoT the students wrote a recount text independently.

Based on the findings of the study it is suggested for English teachers to implement Mr. Bean video in teaching writing especially recount text.

It is also suggested that the teachers be selective in choosing the appropriate videos for students to avoid negative effect of video. For further researcher it is suggested to use Mr. Bean video for different text types and on different grades and levels of education. In addition related to the weaknesses identified in this study further researchers are suggested to conducts preliminary study more than one time to get the students real condition in order to identify the students problem more accurately.
