Abstract

This study aims to find out the correlation between vocabulary mastery and reading comprehension. Research subjects were selected using cluster random sampling technique, that is taken from the class assigned (VIIIC). Before using the test items, they were tested their validity and reliability. The result of validity and reliability test showed that 15 out of 40 test items were not valid and reliable so they were not used to collect data. Data of vocabulary mastery were collected using essay test while data about reading comprehension were collected using multiple choice test. Data were analyzed using Pearson Product Moment coefficient correlation in the SPSS program version 20. The result of data analysis indicated that there is positive correlation between reading comprehension and vocabulary mastery (0.440) with significant level (α = 0.05). This result belongs to the category of moderate or medium correlation according to Best and Khan (0.40 to 0.59). Therefore, the hypothesis (Ha) of this research is failed to be rejected. It means that the greater the English vocabulary students have the better their reading comprehension do.

Abstract

The objective of this research is to find out the effect of the Student-Centered Learning (SCL) technique to develop the speaking skill of second grade students. This research applied the experimental design of quasi-experiments. The population of this research was the second-grade students that were XI IPA 4 as experimental class and XI IPA 2 as control class. In sample selection, the research sample was selected using the convenience sampling technique to determine the sample. The data were collected through pre-test and post-test. Data were analyzed using t-test to compare the mean score of the pre-test and the post-test from experimental and control groups .The results showed that the mean differences in the classical abilities of the control and experimental class students were 45.1 and 49 in the pre-test, while the post-test were 61.16 and 55.29. Further analysis indicates t-counted (3.85) is greater than the t-tables (1.67)which means that the use of SCL has an impact on students’ speaking achievement. Therefore, the hypothesis of this research is accepted which means there is an improvement in their ability in speaking.

The data were collected through pretest and posttest. The data were analyzed using t-test to compare mean score of pretest and posttest of experimental and control group. The result showed that the mean differences of the experimental and control group students were (51.70) and (52.75) in pretest. While the posttest were (60.23) and (54.50). Further analysis indicates, t-counted (4.57) is greater than t-table (2.02). The control group got the higher score on pretest while the experimental group got the higher score on posttest which is mean that the hypothesis of the research failed to be rejected. In other word, the use of storytelling to teach English has impact in improving students’ speaking ability.
