Abstract
The objective of the study was to improve the reading comprehension ability in a large class through cooperative integrated reading and composition at the eighth grade students of SMP IT Abu Bakar, Yogyakarta. This study was an action research study, consisting of two cycles with three meetings in Cycle 1 and two meetings in Cycle 2. The research members were students of class VIIIH of SMP IT Abu Bakar, the English teacher, the collaborator, and the researcher. The phases of the research were reconnaissance, planning, implementing and observing the actions, and reflection. There were two forms of data in this research. They were qualitative and quantitative data. The qualitative data were obtained by doing observation, interviewing students and the collaborator, making field notes, and having the discussion with the collaborator as an observer. Meanwhile, the quantitative data were obtained from the pre-test and the post-test score. The validity of the data was obtained by applying democratic validity, outcome validity, process validity, catalytic validity, and dialogic validity. In addition, this research applied the investigator triangulation to get the trustworthiness. In reference to the actions conducted in two cycles, Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition (CIRC) could improve students’ reading comprehension ability as justified in the following results. First, there was an improvement on students’ reading comprehension involvement as 25 out of 31 students showed their good participation and enthusiasm in reading comprehension practices.
