dc.description.abstractThis experimental research was intended to know whether or not there was a significant effect of using skimming and scanning techniques on the eighth grade students’ reading comprehension achievement at SMPN 1 Rambipuji, Jember. In this research, the researcher used skimming and scanning techniques in teaching reading as it was believed to be a helpful medium in teaching and learning process. These techniques are suitable to use in teaching reading especially for comprehension. Skimming is reading selectively to get the main idea of the reading material. While, scanning refers to reading a text quickly in order to locate specific pieces of information. The experimental group was treated by skimming and scanning techniques, while the control group received no treatment or it was taught reading by using lecturing technique as usually done by the teacher. This research was conducted to investigate the effect of using skimming and scanning techniques on the eighth grade students’ reading comprehension achievement at SMPN 1 Rambipuji, Jember . The population of this research was all of the eighth grade students of SMPN 1 Rambipuji. The research respondents were determined by using cluster random sampling. Two classes were taken from the available classes of the eighth grade at SMPN 1 Rambipuji, Jember. The two available classes were decided as the control group and the experimental group randomly because the research design used was quasi experimental with pretestposttest non-equivalent group. To determine the both groups as experimental group (VIII B) and as control group (VIII A), the researcher used lottery. The number of the respondents was 76 students; 38 students were in control group (VIII A), and 38 ix students were in experimental group (VIII A). The researcher used 3 lesson plans for each group and they were conducted in 3 meetings. The primary data of this research were collected from the students’ scores of pretest and posttest. The scores were used to compare the students’ reading comprehension of the two groups after the treatment. Based on the result of students’ score analysis through ANCOVA that were analyzed by using SPSS, the mean score of experimental class was 80.95, while the mean score of the control class was 78.53. And the total mean score of both classes was 79.74. The degree of freedom was 74. The value 74 was the total number of the students from experimental class and control class which has been subtracted by one for each class. The sig.value of the class was 0.035. Since the sig. value was lower than 0.05, the null hypothesis “There is no significant effect of using skimming and scanning technique on the eighth grade students’ reading comprehension achivement at SMPN 1 Rambipuji, Jember” was rejected. On the other hand the alternate hypothesis “There is a significant effect of using Skimming and scanning technique on the eighth grade students’ reading comprehension achivement at SMPN 1 Rambipuji, Jember” was accepted. The research results proved that there was a significant effect of using skimming and scanning techniques on the eighth grade students’ reading comprehension achievement at SMPN 1 Rambipuji. Therefore, it is recommended to the English teacher to use skimming and scanning techniques as a technique in teaching reading.en_US
