Abstract

Abstract This research was aimed to analyze the effect of “The Super family TV Quiz” on students’ reading comprehension skill. The preliminary research shows that there are two main factors which become issues in reading comprehension. It arise from the teacher’s side and from the students’ side. From the student’s side, it is caused by students’ limited vocabulary that make them cannot comprehend the text and cannot be motivated. From the teacher’s side, the problem is caused by the use of conventional technique (Questioning techniques and pictorial context) in pre-reading activity. This research was conducted by using an experimental research design and the population of this research was 68 business students in the second grade of SMK N. 3 Padang. Those students are divided in two classes; experimental group and control group. Both group received different treatment. The experimental group was treated by using the activities which were adapted in the superfamily TV Quiz while the control group was treated by using pictorial context (conventional technique). The score in post-test of the students in experimental group differs significantly from the students in control group after calculating it by using t formula. The value of t calculated (3,32) is higher than the value of t table (2.00). So, it is logic to say that the used of the “Super Family” TV quiz in pre-reading activity has a significant effect on reading comprehension
