This study tried find the students’ improvement in listening achievement after having taught by using the shadowing technique. The method used was a quasi-experimental that involved two groups, namely the control group and experimental group. The population of this study was all the tenth graders of SMA Negeri 3 Unggulan Kayuagung with a total number of 198 tenth graders. Purposive sampling method was applied to select the sample involved 72 tenth graders. In collecting the data, try out the test was used to get the desirable questions that would be used in the pretest and posttest to both groups in the control and experimental group. To verify the hypothesis, the normality and homogeneity of the data were firstly analyzed before being continued to be analyzed by using a t-test. Based on the result of data analysis in an independent sample t-test, there were some findings found. First, the mean score of a posttest (75.56) in the experimental group was higher than the pretest (69.03) in the control group. Secondly, the value of tobtained was 2.77 at the significant level of p<0.05 in two-tailed testing with df = 70, the critical value of ttable was 1.99. Since the value of tobtained was higher than ttable, the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected and the research hypothesis was accepted. In conclusion, it showed that the shadowing technique could improve the tenth-grade students’ listening achievement at SMA Negeri 3 Unggulan Kayuagung.

The study explored the effect of PQ4R instructional strategy on reading fluency. The sample consisted of (107) students from four tenth-grade classroom sections in four schools in North West Badia Directorate of Education. The sample distributed into two groups: Experimental group consisted of two sections (one male and one of female), and control group consisted of two tenth grade sections (one male and one female). The study used a quasi-experimental design, by using PQ4R instructional strategy to teach the experimental group and the conventional methods to teach the control group. The instrument was a pre-post reading fluency test developed by the researcher based on reviewing previous literature. The results revealed statistically significant differences in the mean scores of the experimental group and the control group in favor of the experimental group. It found statistically significant differences in the mean scores of the students' in the two sub-skills of reading fluency due to gender, in favour of females, and no statistically significant differences in the interaction between groups and gender. The results showed significant improvements of the experimental group in the two sub-skills of reading fluency (speed, accuracy), which could be attributed to employing PQ4R instructional strategy.
