Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of the School Literacy Movement (SLM) on the reading interest and reading ability of elementary school students. A quantitative survey was conducted using a questionnaire distributed to 97 teachers selected by simple random sampling from a population of 3,058 teachers, with a 10% margin of error calculated using the Slovin formula. Data analysis involved descriptive statistics, prerequisite tests, and hypothesis testing. The results indicate that SLM implementation, reading interest, and reading ability were all in the high category. Due to non-normal data distribution, Spearman's rank correlation was employed. The analysis revealed a significant, moderately strong correlation between SLM and reading interest (r = 0.492, p < 0.05), whereas the correlation between SLM and reading ability was weak and not statistically significant (r = 0.057, p > 0.05). This study contributes empirical evidence on SLM implementation in Eastern Indonesia, especially in Southwest Sumba Regency.

Abstract

The School Literacy Movement (SLM ) has been implemented in Southwest Sumba Regency (SSR) since 2018 to improve students' reading culture. This study analyzes the impact of SLM on students' reading interest. This quantitative research uses a survey method. This study involved 97 elementary school students as a random sample whose number was determined using the Slovin formula. Data collection used a questionnaire. Prerequisite tests showed that the data were normally distributed, but did not meet the linearity assumption. The analysis was continued with the Spearman test. The results showed that the SLM score reached 72.39 and the reading interest score was 61.00, both of which are included in the high category. The research data showed a normal distribution but was not homogeneous. Spearman's Rank analysis yielded a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05, indicating that SLM has a positive and significant effect on the reading interest of elementary school students in SSR. This finding indicates the need to strengthen the implementation of SLM aspects to increase effectiveness in building sustainable student reading interest.
