Abstract

This study aims to explore the effectiveness of the SQ3R (Survey, Question, Read, Recite, Review) method in improving the effective reading skills of Elementary School Teacher Education (PGSD) students in understanding scientific articles. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, this study involved 25 students in the fourth semester of PGSD at Sarjanawiyata Tamansiswa University as subjects. Data collection is carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation studies, then analyzed through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The results of the study show that the SQ3R method is implemented according to the stages to understand scientific articles and has positive implications for improving effective reading skills, especially through the Survey and Question stages that build a focused and critical reading orientation. However, there are still obstacles at the Read, Recite, and Review stages related to the absorption and articulation of information orally. Students responded positively to this method, although pedagogical assistance was still needed to optimize its implementation, especially in strengthening academic communication.

The population in this study is the students of Primary School Teacher Education Department in Yogyakarta and Klaten. Then, the sample is the second-semester students of Widya Dharma University in Klaten and Sarjanawiyata Tamansiswa University in Yogyakarta. The students involved in this research are 60 students. Then, data are collected by using the Indonesian reading skill test in way applying interactive multimedia in learning Indonesian reading skills, which is conducted into two stages namely before (pretest) and after (post-testt). Then, data were analyzed using paired t-test. The results of this study show a significant increase in students' reading skills, which is evident in the average score, namely a pretest score of 70.03 and an average post-testt score of 80.13. Also, the results of the paired t-test show a significance value of 0.000 less than 0.05, it indicates that there is a significant difference between the pre-test scores and the post-test students reading scores. These results show that the application of interactive multimedia has an impact on improving students' reading skills, this is because interactive multimedia is not only a conventional learning media but is a technology-based learning media that is able to attract interest in learning and is interactive.
