Abstract

This study explores the relationship between self-esteem and reading comprehension among male students at SMK Karsa Mulya. It addresses a notable phenomenon where male students often exhibit lower self-esteem compared to their female counterparts. This lower self-esteem can potentially affect various academic achievements, including reading comprehension. The aim of this research is to determine if there is a significant correlation between students' self-esteem and reading comprehension. Correlational research using quantitative methods. 53 students from Class XI for the academic year 2022/2023. SPSS 26 with the product-moment correlation method. The correlation coefficient (r) between self-esteem and reading comprehension was found to be 0.811. The significance level (p-value) was 0.00, which is less than the alpha level of 0.05. The (r table) for a sample of 53 at the 0.05 significance level is 0.279. The calculated correlation coefficient (0.811) exceeds the critical value (0.279) and the p-value (0.00) is below 0.05, the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected in favor of the alternative hypothesis (Ha). The results indicate a strong positive correlation between self-esteem and reading comprehension among the male students studied. This suggests that higher self-esteem is associated with better reading comprehension skills. Improving students' self-esteem could potentially enhance their reading comprehension.

Abstract

A factor that has an impact on the teaching and learning process is the instructional material. This means that input has typically always been provided by material creators in line with their understanding of how language may be effectively learned through input. This study attempts to determine how well the English textbook "Bahasa Inggris Kelas XII SMA/MA/SMK/MAK Edisi Revisi 2018" satisfies the standards for a good textbook proposed by Tomlinson. In this study, data were gathered using a descriptive methodology from two chapters of the textbook "Bahasa Inggris Kelas XII SMA/MA/SMK/MAK Edisi Revisi 2018". Based on the study, fourteen of the sixteen criteria of Tomlinson's theory for a good textbook were perfectly fulfilled, and the textbook failed to fulfill two of the requirements since it had some extraneous elements. The material of "Bahasa Inggris Kelas XII SMA/MA/SMK/MAK Edisi Revisi 2018" is mostly linked to Tomlinson's criteria for a good textbook. This textbook can be used as a reference for teaching and learning support in collaboration with another textbook, allowing the teacher to provide additional supporting materials and students with a choice of materials on relevant topics.
