This study aims to measure the effectiveness of collaborative strategic reading (CSR) and cooperative-discussion-question (Coop-Dis-Q) strategies in teaching reading comprehension students with impulsive and reflective cognitive learning styles. To improve students' reading comprehension skills, the researcher wants to study both strategies. This research used 2x2 factorial experimental designs. The subjects were XI MIPA 1 and XI MIPA 4 classes of SMAN 1 Pangkah, Tegal Regency. They were divided into two groups, and categorized impulsive and reflective students. The instruments used were test, pre-test, post-test, and questionnaires. This research indicated that collaborative strategic reading (CSR) was more effective than cooperative-discussion-question (Coop-Dis-Q) to students with impulsive cognitive learning styles. Simultaneously, there was no significant difference between the students who were taught by using collaborative strategic reading (CSR) and those taught by cooperative-discussion-question (Coop-Dis-Q) with reflective cognitive learning style. It meant that CSR was more effective for the students with impulsive cognitive learning styles, while Coop-Dis-Q was effective for the students with reflective cognitive learning styles. Based on the findings, the researchers concludes that CSR and Coop-Dis-Q appeared to improve the students' reading comprehension skills for both impulsive and reflective students.

The research method used is a quantitative method which employs a quasi-experimental design. The data collection is conducted through pretests and posttests. The validity and the reliability of the tests are measured by using ANATES. Furthermore, the collected data are analyzed using SPSS version 23 to find the t-value, i.e. to know whether there is a significant difference of the mean scores of posttests of the two groups. The finding shows that the mean score of the experimental class is 77.27 and that of the control class is 70.00. The t-value is 2.892. In addition, the hypothesis testing shows that at the sig. 2-tailed, probability  values (p) is 0.006, while alpha value (α) is 0.05. In other words, p < α, which indicates that Hѳ is rejected and Ha is accepted. In conclusion, the Hamburger Strategy is effective to use in teaching reading comprehension of recount texts at the 8th-grade students of MTs.
