ABSTRACT Ramadhani Fadhil. 2018. The Implementation of SQ3R Technique to Improve the Eighth Graders Reading Comprehension of Recount Texts. Thesis Department of English Faculty of Letters Universitas Negeri Malang. Advisors (I) Drs. Andi Muhtar M.A. (II) Dra. Sri Andreani M.Ed. Keywords SQ3R technique reading comprehension recount texts This study is aimed at implementing the SQ3R technique to solve the classroom problems found in the class 8I in SMPN 8 Malang. The study was conducted on the basis of the preliminary study in which the researcher identified some classroom problems namely (1) the students had a low ability in their reading comprehension of recount texts and (2) the students had a low level of participation in the classroom reading activities. Thus the researcher decided to implement the SQ3R technique because this technique can improve the students reading comprehension and level of active participation in the classroom. SQ3R technique is a technique that focuses primarily on reading comprehension through five activities of (1) surveying (2) questioning (3) reading (4) reciting and (5) reviewing. In implementing the technique the researcher conducted a classroom action research (CAR) that was carried out in two cycles with total six meetings. The data presented in this study are the students scores which are obtained through reading comprehension tests and the results of the observation regarding the students participation which are collected from observation checklists. The study results were then analyzed and compared to the criteria of success defined in this study to see whether they were achieved or not. The findings of the study indicated that the implementation of the SQ3R technique was (1) successful in improving the students reading comprehension of recount texts and (2) able to increase the students participation in reading activities. At the end of the study 87.5% of the students had achieved at least a 10-point improvement in their reading comprehension test scores compared to their scores in the preliminary test. Furthermore 92.85% of the students had actively participated in all of the SQ3R activities in the classroom. Ergo the improvement in student scores and the students positive response showed that the implementation of the SQ3R technique has met all of the criteria of success in this study. This study proves that the SQ3R technique can improve the students reading comprehension of recount texts and the students also have a positive response toward the implementation of the technique. For those reasons it is suggested that English teachers apply and adopt the SQ3R technique in their classrooms. Moreover the findings presented in this study can be used a valuable reference for future researchers.
