Reading Aloud strategy used in the teaching reading skills, which means the teachers and students pronounced the word loudly in front of the class to get the information. The strategy is rewarding for students to understand the reading texts. Then, the researchers used a reading test as an instrument to know the students' competence in reading skills. This research used Quasi-Experimental Design.  The result was proved that the score in the experimental class was 61 with a standard deviation was 8.20 and the post-test score was 69.1 with a standard deviation was 8.22 then the score of pre-test in the control class was 56.5 with a standard deviation was 8.53 and post-test was 60.40 with standard deviation was 9. 68. The results achieved from both tests were different. Next, the t-test score both in class was 0, 00. It means that the hypothesis is accepted, it concluded that the implementation of the reading aloud strategy can improve students' reading skills competence.

This study investigated the effect of using English Subtitle in “Zootopia” Movie as media in speaking skill of SMPN 6 Sidoarjo. English Subtitle can describe as practice media to help the students when they understand to watch movie. The method used Quasi Experimental Design. The result of this study showed that the student could improve their ability in speaking skill through English subtitle. The data got from both pre-test and post-test score were analyzed using T-test formula. The result of calculation showed that in the significance degree of 5%, the value of t-test (to) is higher than t-table (tt) (19.90 > 1.99). According to the criteria of the test, the result showed that there is an effect of student’s in speaking skill using English subtitle. It can be concluded that English Subtitle in “Zootopia” movie as media is effective and applicable approach at the ninth grade of SMPN 6 Sidoarjo to improve student in speaking skill.

This study attempted to find out: (1) Whether the Task Based Language Teaching (TBLT) affects students’ reading comprehension or not, (2) The application of task based language teaching towards students’ reading motivation. This study employed quasi experimental design to scrutinize the applicability of TBLT which involving 2nd grade students of Junior High School 7 Kendari registered in academic year 2019/2020. To this end, 62 participants (including an experimental group and a control class ones) were selected through purposive sampling from among 180 students. Task Based Language Teaching was applied in teaching reading comprehension in experimental group while in control group ones was applied conventional. Both groups were taught the same topic. The test was administered before treatment (pre-test) to examine the students’ previous reading comprehension and it was then compared with their post-test to examine their reading comprehension after being taught using TBLT. Reading test and questionnaire as the instruments of this study. The data from reading test was used to figure out the students’ reading comprehension by using t-test while the data from questionnaire was to figure out the students’ reading motivation. All collected data were computed and analysed by using SPSS 24. The results of reading comprehension test revealed that TBLT significantly effects students’ reading comprehension. Moreover, the result of questionnaire displayed that the students became more motivated to read through Task Based Language Teaching (TBLT).   Keywords: Reading Comprehension, Task Based Language Teaching.

<p>The objective of the study was to find whether there was a significant difference between the students taught using authentic materials and the students taught using non-authentic materials on the students’ writing score. The quasi-experimental design was applied in this study. The population was all the tenth year students at MAN Model Palangka Raya. The samples were determined using purposive sampling. The samples were XA as the experiment group and XB as the control group. The collected data were obtained from test and documentation. The main data were analyzed using t<sub>test </sub>formula and SPSS 17.0. The results showed that the mean of pre-test score in experiment group was 59.76 and the mean of post-test score was 72.9. The value difference of both means was 13.14. The mean of pre-test score in control group was 53.8 and the mean of post-test score was 58. The value difference of both means was 4.2. It means that teaching writing procedural text using authentic materials was more effective than teaching writing procedural text using non-authentic materials because the authentic materials taught was appropriate with the level of students’ ability in this study.</p>

The National Association of Educational Progress (NAEP) report shows that 39 percent of fourth graders fall below a basic reading level; by twelfth grade that figure is still 23 percent. Accordingly, early intervention initiatives should impact those figures in the future to eliminate the segment of students who have significant difficulty acquiring basic reading skills, generally estimated at 20 percent. In response, Filipino innovators founded “Alpabasa”, a game-based program in teaching reading that aims to effectively teach kinder and elementary school children how to read in 18 days. The study made use of the quasi-experimental method, specifically, the pre-post test design to investigate the effectiveness of the modified “Alpabasa”: A game-based program in teaching reading among 60 grade 3 and 4 non-readers of St. Paul University Philippines by incorporating costumes, music, movement, games, theatrical presentations and supplemental activities in learning. Findings show that the exposure of non-readers to the Modified Alpabasa Reading Program resulted in better performance of the students in reading. Through action songs and movement-based activities, pupils are geared to play with language as learning situations are made concrete and realistic; thus, making reading more meaningful, interesting and engaging.

The students’ reading comprehension of SMA Negeri 2 Tumijajar is still low especially in reading personal recount text. To solve the problem, the researcher applied Buzz Group. The objective of this research is to know whether there is a significant influence of using buzz group towards students’ reading comprehension on personal recount text at the eleventh grade of SMA Negeri 2 Tumijajar in the academic 2018/2019. The research methodology was quasi experimental design. In this research, the population was the eleventh grade of SMA Negeri 2 Tumijajar. The sample of this research was two classes consisting of 33 students for experimental class and 33 students for control class. In the experimental class, the researcher used buzz group and in the control class the teacher used think pair share. The treatments were held in 3 meetings in which 2 x 45 minutes for each class. In collecting data, the researcher used instrument in the form of multiple choice questions which had been tried out prior to the treatments. The instrument was given in pre-test and post-test. The researcher analyzed the data using SPSS to compute independent sample t-test. From the data analysis computed by SPSS, it was obtained that Sig. = 0.002 and α = 0.05. It means Ha is accepted because Sig. < α = 0.002 < 0.05. Therefore, there is a significant influence of using buzz group towards students’ reading comprehension on personal recount text at the eleventh grade of SMA Negeri 2 Tumijajar in the academic year 2018/2019.

Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian Quasi Eksperimental Design dengan jumlah subjek adalah 20 orang siswa. Hasil penelitian ini didapatkan kenaikan nilai standat deviasi dari hasil pre-test sebesar 4,161 terhadap hasil post-test sebesar 6,012. Hasil uji normalitas di dapatkan nilai Asymp. Sig pre-test dan post-test lebih besar dari 0,05 yang berarti hipotesis diterima. Dalam uji homogenitas didapatkan hasil signifitasi hitung sebesar 0,025 lebih besar dari 0,05 yang berarti hipotesis diterima. Hasil uji-t diperoleh nilai t hitung -3,876 lebih kecil dari 0,05, maka hipotesis diterima. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian yang telah diperoleh dengan analisis dan pengujian hipotesis maka dapat ditarik kesimpulan sebagai berikut: Terdapat Pengaruh yang signifikan dari model latihan modifikasi bola gantung terhadap kemampuan servis atas putra ekstrakurikuler bila voli siswa SMK N 3 Kota Bengkulu.Kata Kunci: Modifikasi Bola Gantung, Servis Atas, Bola Voli.AbstractThis study aims to determine the effect of the model of hanging ball modification on the service ability of volleyball extracurricular participants SMKN 3 Kota Bengkulu.
