Abstrak

This research aimed to finding out the improvement of the students’ reading comprehension in terms of literal comprehension dealing with main ideas and interpretative comprehension in English text. It conducted three processes, namely pretest, treatment and posttest consisted of four meetings. The researcher used a pre- experimental method with one group pretest-posttest design. It used a purposive sampling. The total number of sample was 34 students. The researcher used 20 multiple choice tests of reading test as instrument in pre-test and post-test. The research findings indicated that Collaborative Strategic Reading (CSR) gave greater contribution to the students’ reading comprehension. In the normality test, the researcher found that α = 0,05 for pre-test and post-test data were normally distributed, as the effect obtained for post-test data was 0,088 which is greater than 0,05. The calculation results showed that all significant values for students’ reading comprehension using Collaborative Strategic Reading (CSR) were the same, which was α = 0,05, with a value of 0,088 ( > 0,05). Based on the analysis results show that, Fcount = 80,718 > Ftable = 2,78. So that it can be stated that the implementation of Collaborative Strategic Reading (CSR) to improve students’ reading comprehension is homogeneous. Based on the results of the analysis of hypothesis testing shows that the researcher got the data Tcount = 8,984 > Ttable = 1,668. The significance value = 0,000 (p < 0.05). So that hypothesis (H0) is rejected, and Hypothesis (Ha) is automatically accepted. It means Collaborative Strategic Reading (CSR) can improve significantly to students’ reading comprehension
