This study was aimed at finding out the effect of applying Venn Diagram Strategy on students’ achievement in reading comprehension. This study was conducted with an experimental design. The population of this study was the first year students in the academic year 2012/2013 at SMK Prayatna-1 Medan. There were sixty students taken as the sample of the research. The sample was divided into two groups: the first group (30 students) as the experimental group and the second group (30 students) as the control group. The experimental group was taught by applying the Venn Diagram Strategy, while the control group was taught without the Venn Diagram Strategy. The instrument for collecting data was a multiple choice test which consisted of 40 items. To obtain test reliability, the researcher used the Kuder -Richardson (KR-21) formula. The calculation showed that the reliability of the test was 0.66. The data were calculated by using the t-test formula. The result of the analysis showed that the t-observed (5.02) was higher than t-table (2.00) at the level of significance (α) 0.05 and the degree of freedom (df) 58. Therefore, the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted. It means that teaching reading comprehension through the Venn Diagram Strategy significantly affected reading comprehension.   Key Words: Venn Diagram Strategy, Reading Comprehension, Student Achievement.

This study deals with the effect of Contextual Guessing Technique (CGT) on students’ reading comprehension achievement in descriptive text. The problem of the study is to find out whether Contextual guessing Technique significantly affects students’ achievement in reading descriptive text or not. This study was conducted by using experimental design. The population of the study was the students of eighth grade of SMP Negeri 3 Perbaungan in academic years 2014/2015, there were 5 parallel classes of grade VIII. There were two classes selected to be sample. The experimental group (VIII-2) was taught by using CGT, while the control group was taught by applying conventional technique. The data of the study was obtained from the students’ scores of reading test. There were two kinds of test used in this study. They were pre-test and post-test. The data were analyzed by applying t-test formula. After analyzing the data, the result of the study showed that t-observed (2,322) was higher than t-table (2,024) (t-observed > t-table) at the level of significance of p=0,05 and the degree of freedom (df) = 38. Thus, it can be concluded that applying CGT significantly affects students’ achievement in reading descriptive text, or in other words, the null hypothesis is rejected; therefore, the alternative hypothesis is accepted.

The aim of this study is to examine the impact of using the reciprocal teaching model on Jordanians’ first year students at Mutah University in the academic year 2015/2016. 176 participants took part and were arbitrarily selected and divided into two gender mixed groups; the experimental group which was exposed to the reciprocal teaching model (RT), and the control group which was taught using the traditional method (TM). A total of fourteen  independent sample T-tests and paired samples T-tests were used for the purpose of comparing and analysing the scores of the pre-tests and the post-tests, and with the intention to pinpoint the effect of using RT as well as to measure the extent of such effect on the development of the students’ reading comprehension skills. Through the analysis of the results and in line with the two questions of this study, it has emerged that the use of the RT model has a positive effect on the first year students’ reading comprehension achievement in the experimental group; a fact that is reflected in the significant statistical difference when compared to the reading comprehension achievement of the students from the control group taught using the TM. It has also emerged that although the male students’ scores are better than the scores attained by the female students, the use of the RT remains of great benefits for both; male and female students.

Abstract: This study aims to trace the influence of using some meta cognitive strategies in improving reading comprehension on the conclusion and application levels among non-Arabic speaking students in Malaysian universities. The researchers made use of quasi-experimental method to suit with the nature of the study. The sample consist of 52 students from first year students of The Islamic Sciences University Malaysia selected purposefully for the objective. They were divided into two groups: 26 students for the experimental group and the other 26 for the control group. The former was exposed to teaching with meta cognitive strategies while the latter was taught ordinarily. The researchers had designed a teaching manual and assignment papers according to the meta cognitive strategies. An examination was deployed to measure the reading comprehension on the literal, conclusion and application levels. The results showed significant difference of α=0.05 in two levels: literal and interpretation that correlates with the meta-cognitive strategies applied on the experimental group.   Keywords: Meta cognitive strategies- Reading comprehension – Reading strategies – Teaching reading skills – students.   Abstrak: Kajian ini ertujuan untuk mengesan kesan penggunaan strategi meta kognitif dalam menambah baik kefahaman membaca pada tahap membuat kesimpulan dan applikasi kefahaman dalam kalangan pelajar bukan Arab di universiti-universiti Malaysia.
