The Effect of Teaching Methods on Students’ Achievements in Narrative and Report Text in SMA Negeri 1 Dolok Pardamean

Abstract

The objectives of this experimental research were to investigate whether: (1) Is there any effect taught by using Jigsaw method on students’ achievement in reading comprehension, Is there any effect taught by using Cooperative Reading Integrated and Composition (CIRC) method on students’ achievement in Reading Comprehension, and is the effect of Cooperative Reading Integrated and Composition (CIRC) method more significant than the effect of Jigsaw
Method. The population of this study was the Second year students of state senior high school in Pematangsiantar, SMAN 1 Dolok Pardamean in academic year 2012/2013. It is located on Jl. Sipintuangin Kab. Simalungun. Each class consists of 40 students. The total numbers of the students are 120 students. So, hopefully this research will also be useful for them not only in understanding further about what class is more suitable based on their learning style but also in
knowing the appropriate way of comprehending text whether by CIRC or Jigsaw. So the writer will take 25%, they were from students of second grade exatcly Class II IPA 1. The research design was experimental research by using factorial design 2x2. The students were divided into two experimental groups. The experimental group I was treated by using Jigsaw and experimental group II was treated by using CIRC. The data were analyzed by applying two-way
analysis of variance (ANOVA) at the level of significance α= 0.05. The result reveals that (1) There is the effect of Experimental group by using jigsaw method on students’ achievement in reading comprehension. It shows from the score of the students’ achievement taught by using
jigsaw that the mean is : 73 and varians is (S2 2 ) = 9,28 (2) There is significance effect in Experimental group by using Jigsaw method on students achievements taught by using Cooperative Reading Integrated and Composition ( CIRC ). It shows from the score of the students achievement in CIRC method that the mean is X3 = 78 and Variance =(S3 2) = 8,67 . (3) The students’ achievement in class control is = mean = X1 = 70 and variance is (S1
2 ) = 12,10. The significance effect on students’ achievement in reading comprehension between Jigsaw teaching method and Cooperative Reading Integrated and Composition ( CIRC ) method is CIRC because from the data analysis above we can conclude that students’ achievement taught by using CIRC method higher than jigsaw method. It shows from the score of Mean in CIRC = 78 and The mean in Jigsaw method = 73.
