dc.description.abstract | There were two kinds of data in this research, namely primary data and
secondary data. The primary data of this research were collected from the students’
scores of reading pretest and posttest, while secondary data were collected from
interview and documentation. The result of interview and documentation were used to
support the primary dat. The scores from the result of reading pretest and posttest
were used to compare the students’ reading comprehension of the two groups after
the treatment. Based on the results of students’ score analysis through Independent
Sample t-test that were analyzed by using SPSS, the mean score of the experimental
class was 83.1176, while the mean score of the control class was 77.6471. The degree
of freedom was 68. The value 68 here was the total number of students from both
classes (the experimental and the control groups). Moreover, in the output of t-test
column showed sig. value was 0.000. It was lower than 0.05. It means that the mean
scores of two groups were different. According to the mean score of two groups, we
could see that there was a significant difference between the mean scores of the
experimental and the control groups. It proved that the null hypothesis in this research
“There is no a significant effect of using skimming and scanning techniques on the
eleventh grade students’ reading comprehension achievement at SMAN 1
Pesanggaran, Banyuwangi” was rejected and the alternate hypothesis “There is a
significant effect of using skimming and scanning techniques on the eleventh grade
students’ reading comprehension achievement at SMAN 1 Pesanggaran,
Banyuwangi” was accepted.
Based on the research result above, it could be concluded that skimming and
scanning techniques can be recommended to the English teacher as teaching
techniques in reading comprehension class and to give variation in teaching learning
process of reading. | en_US |
