QAR: Strategy implementation for reading comprehension of recount texts

Think-Aloud Method is believed to assist language learners in improving their reading comprehension. The objective of this study is to know whether students’ reading comprehension particularly in identifying main idea and supporting details, identifying reference, making inference and interpreting vocabulary. The sample was the students of class eight-5 of of SMP Negeri 17 Banda Aceh. This study was one group pre-test and post-test design. Based on the findings, the mean score of pre-test was 38.15and post-test was78.89. The critical value of t-table 0.05. The significant levels was1.71, the t-test value is higher than the critical value of t-table (4.75>2.05). The reading aspects that were improved the most were detailed information, main idea and inference. For the other aspects, such as vcabulary and reference were also improved, but not as much as the three aspects above. It means that the use of Think-Aloud Method could significantly improve the ability of the second grade students of SMPN 17 Banda Aceh in reading, especially in descriptive text.

The population of this research involved 60 students from the second grade in MTs Tarbiyatul Mustafid Batu Simpang. By using purposive sampling, the researcher took the students as a sample. In collecting the data, this study used pre-test, treatment, and post-test as the data collection procedure then followed by analyzing the data by using the t-test formula. Then the result of statistical analysis of t-test in this research was 2.85. It was higher than critical values for t- table in the degree of freedom (df) of 58 is 2.021(0.05%) and 2.704(0.01%). The researcher concludes that mean score before and after teaching by using schema activation strategy has a difference. It means the alternative hypothesis (ha) was accepted.

The result of this research is the teacher and students response in reading teaching using this model is excellent with the achievement of observation value of teacher activity is P = 87,5% between 81-100% with excellent category and observation value of students activity is P = 82,5% between 81-100% with excellent category too. And the aplication of this model effectuve to improve students’ ability in reading comprehension, the proof is that the value of T-test with p -value sig. (2-tailed) is smaller than the value of alpha ⍺ = 0,05 or (T-test < ⍺ = 0,05) with value is (0,000 < 0,05).
