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.

This study aims to analyze how effective the listen-read-discuss (LRD) strategy and contextual redefinition (CR) strategy in teaching reading comprehension to EFL learners with different motivation levels. This paper explained the result of experimental research on reading comprehension skills to students with high and low motivations at SMP Islam Nudia Semarang. This study used a 2x2 factorial design in the experimental study. It was used to collect the data from 40 students divided into two groups; they were experimental group 1 and experimental group 2. They were treated with different strategies: LRD and CR strategies. Test and questionnaire were used to collect the data in this study. The data was analyzed using ANOVA to prove the hypotheses. The result showed a significant difference between LRD and CR strategies to teach reading comprehension to students with high and low motivations. The Contextual Redefinition (CR) strategy effectively teaches reading comprehension to high and low motivation levels than the Listen-Read-Discuss (LRD) strategy. Based on ANOVA analysis, there were no interaction among the LRD and CR strategies, students' motivation, and teaching reading comprehension.

Implementing social-emotional learning skills into Collaborative Strategic Reading (CSR), the current study intended to extend the efficacy of CSR for teaching reading strategies when applying it to students in rural areas from a working-class community. To this purpose, forty-four students who made the comparison and the experimental groups were taught reading strategies through CSR and ECSR (Extended Collaborative Strategic Reading), respectively. A reading comprehension test with different question types was implemented to the students as pretest and posttest, and an interview was given at the end of the study to investigate the perception of the students toward reading strategy instruction through CSR and ECSR. Analysis of data indicated that only the ECSR group improved significantly in overall reading comprehension, but the componential analysis of the reading test showed that despite the fact that the CSR group showed no significant improvement in the reading tests in four formats (true–false, multiple-choice, matching, and cloze), the ECSR group improved significantly in reading tests with multiple-choice and cloze test formats. Moreover, although the students in both groups showed a positive view toward the interventions, the students in the ECSR group improved in social-emotional and communication skills. It seems that CSR can be improved to be effective by implementing the emotional component to it.

The instrument for collecting the data was a questionnaire and interview. Quantitative data were collected and analyzed in the first phase of the research and qualitative data were collected in the second phase. The results reveal that the English teachers use several techniques in teaching reading comprehension such as Scanning Technique, Skimming Technique, SQ3R, Speed Reading, Detailed Reading Strategy, and Collaborative Strategic Reading. The result of the interview showed that the teachers tended to use the Scanning-Skimming technique and SQ3R compared to other techniques. According to them, the Scanning-Skimming technique were two techniques that were very effective for students to use when they did English exams, especially reading texts, they find it easier to get information from a reading text. Meanwhile, SQ3R is a technique that is very good for the benefit of reading intensively. The teachers at Madrasah Aliyah Pasangkayu Regency to upgrade in teaching reading are only some of them who have attended seminars/webinars or training from related agencies or schools. As for their efforts in improving their reading teaching skills, only a few of them were creative to learn independently to find references, hold study groups, review journals, and download videos about teaching reading techniques. Every teacher needs to be more creative for the learning process can be successful.

Students’ reading comprehension was found to be one of the major concerns with all teachers worldwide. It is essential to optimize students’ performance in all courses. Yet, we claimed that gender, and reading attitudes and practices could influence reading comprehensibility. We utilized descriptive-correlational design of quantitative research. Descriptive design was used to obtain the attributes of students’ reading attitudes and practices. Moreover, we used a correlational design to determine the relationship or association between and among attributes and their level of reading comprehension skills. We found out that students have a positive attitude towards reading when reading materials are educational and entertainment. In terms of the significant relationship between reading attitudes and practices, results reveal that reading attitude does not always affect reading practices. In terms of the relationship between student’s reading attitudes and practices and their levels of reading comprehension skills, student’s reading attitudes and practices have no significant relationships to all levels except between their reading attitudes and their comprehension skills in the Inferential Level. Lastly, in terms of the significant difference between male and female students’ reading comprehension skills, there is a statistical difference in the Literal and Evaluative Levels between the male and female. Thus, reading comprehension skills vary in these two levels. On the other hand, they showed no statistical difference in the Inferential and Critical Levels between the male and female. Therefore, the Literal and Evaluative Levels of male and female to reading comprehension skills are due to their reading attitudes and practices individually.
