Abstract

IMPLEMENTING CRITICAL READING TASKS TO IMPROVE READING COMPREHENSION OF THE 11th GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA N 3 BANTUL A THESIS By: Rafidah Othman Munawaroh 06202241064 Abstract The objective of this action research is to improve the students’ reading comprehension by implementing critical reading tasks. This study was conducted in Class XI IPA 1 of SMA Negeri 3 Bantul which started on 26th February 2011 and ended on 2nd April 2011. The research members of this study were I myself, the second grade English teacher and the students of Class XI IPA 1. The study was conducted into two cycles each of which consisted of three meetings and comprised four steps: reconnaissance, planning, action and observation, and reflection. During the study, the researcher collected the data through observation, interview and questionnaire. The data were analyzed qualitatively to describe the results and then triangulated through the interview transcripts and questionnaire in order to determine the validation. In reference to the data analysis, the students’ reading comprehension improved through implementing critical reading tasks, despite the fact that there were some actions which considered successful and failed. Making prediction and brainstorming, marking, annotating, summarizing and retelling were confirmed in supporting the students’ reading understanding. While reading without dictionary needed much effort for the students. However, some changes occurred as a result of the implementation of the actions in term of the research members’ ways of thinking and behavior.
