Abstract

Reading skills are essential for high school students, particularly in grasping information efficiently. However, there remains a gap between theory and practice regarding students’ effective reading methods. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the skimming technique in improving reading fluency, speed, and main idea identification skills among grade 11 students at SMA Negeri 5 Pematangsiantar. Using a quantitative quasi-experimental design, this research involved three randomly selected classes. Data collection utilized reading tests focusing on three key aspects: fluency, main idea identification, and reading speed. Results showed significant improvements across these areas following the application of skimming techniques, as evidenced by higher average post-test scores. This suggests that skimming effectively enhances students’ reading performance by enabling quicker comprehension and main idea recognition. In conclusion, the skimming technique proves beneficial for developing essential reading skills, supporting both academic progress and efficient information processing for students in high school.
