| Summary: | <p>The study aimed to determine the effect of Cooperative Integrated Reading Composition</p><p>(CIRC) to improve students reading comprehension achievement, motivation, and</p><p>interest. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design was used for this</p><p>study. Interviews were also used to support the quantitative data. A total of 54 fifth grade</p><p>students from the district of Kalimantan, Banjar, Indonesiawere involved in the study.</p><p>There were 28 students in the experimental group and 26 students in the control group.</p><p>Quantitative data were collected from the pre and posttests and surveys, while the</p><p>qualitative data came from the interviews. The quantitative data were analyzed by using</p><p>descriptive and inferential analyses. Descriptive analysis showed the frequencies, means,</p><p>and standard deviation, while the inferential statistics involved an independent t-test. The</p><p>findings of the pre and posttests showed that there was a significant improvement in</p><p>achievement for the experimental group (M=91.96, SD=5.33) when compared to the</p><p>control group (M=85.38, SD=5.28), t(52)=4.55, p<0.05. The result also showed that the</p><p>level of motivation for the experimental group (M=59.96, SD=6.40) was significantly</p><p>higher than the control group (M=35.92, SD=6.29), t(52)=12.16, p<0.05. Analyses of</p><p>students interest in reading showed a higher rate of interest for the experimental group</p><p>(M=55.92, SD=6.82) when compared with the control group (M=35.81, SD=6.02),</p><p>t(52)=12.19, p<0.05. Interview data indicated that students enjoyed reading when the</p><p>teacher used CIRC in the classroom. This study showed that the use of CIRC could</p><p>enhance the students reading comprehension in Bahasa Indonesia. In addition, CIRC</p><p>had a positive impact on the students reading comprehension of Bahasa Indonesia in</p><p>terms of achievement, motivation and interest.</p> |
