Abstract

Junior high school students still experience significant difficulties in reading comprehension, particularly when dealing with narrative texts that require the ability to distinguish between main ideas and supporting details. This study aimed to investigate the effect of skimming and scanning strategies on the reading comprehension of eighth-grade students at SMPN 14 Tanjungpinang, Riau Islands, Indonesia. Employing a quantitative approach, the study used a pre-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design involving 24 students. The research instrument was a reading comprehension test consisting of ten essay questions, which was administered before and after the treatment across four instructional sessions. The results revealed a significant improvement in students’ reading comprehension following the implementation of skimming and scanning strategies. These strategies effectively assisted students in identifying main ideas and specific information in narrative texts, leading to improved overall comprehension. Therefore, skimming and scanning can be considered effective techniques for enhancing students’ reading comprehension and English literacy.

Abstract

The research of this study was to determine whether the narrative essay writing abilities of male and female fourth-semester students in the English Language Education Study Program differed noticeably. The study adopted a descriptive comparative quantitative design. A total of 18 students from Class K1 at Raja Ali Haji Maritime University took part, comprising 9 males and 9 females chosen via purposive sampling. To collect the necessary data, participants completed a writing test requiring them to produce a 450-word narrative essay on a shared topic under uniform conditions. Two raters then assessed the essays independently, applying an analytic scoring rubric adopted from Jacobs et al. (1981) that covers five writing dimensions content, organization, vocabulary, language use, and mechanics. Each student's final score represented the average of the two raters' evaluations. The researchers analyzed the data using several statistical procedures: descriptive statistics, the independent samples t-test, Cohen's d to gauge effect size, Levene's test for homogeneity of variance, and Shapiro-Wilk test for normality. Results indicated that female participants scored higher on average (84.11) than their male counterparts (72.89). With a two-sided p-value of 0.033 below the 0.05 threshold the t-test confirmed a statistically significant gender-based difference in narrative essay writing performance. The effect size, measured at 1.10 using Cohen's d, further indicated a substantial (large) practical distinction between the two groups. When combined, these findings indicate that female students in this sample were better at writing narrative essays than male students.
