The researcher chose class XI MIPA 4 of senior high school 1 Samaturu, Kolaka. The instruments of this research were questionnaires and interviews. The result of this research revealed that the students' attitudes were generally positive toward the use of google classroom in a writing activity. It is supported by the data obtained based on the three aspects of attitude. Cognitive (60%), affective (77,3%), and behavioral (77,3%) aspects of attitude were positive. The researcher also found there are two factors that hinder the students in writing descriptive texts assigned through google classroom, they are: poor internet connection and being lazy. While the supporting factors are four, they are: the display and the feature of google classroom, good internet connection, google classroom is flexible, and a study partner. In addition, there are three strategies used by the students in writing descriptive text, they are planning, drafting, and editing.
