<![CDATA[This research was aimed at identifying the effect of using SCROL (Survey, Connection, read, Outline, Look Back) strategy toward students’ reading comprehension on hortatory exposition text. Since hortatory exposition is a type of text that influence reader to do something or act in certain way, a profound understanding of the text is something that the students should possessed. SCROL provides procedures that help students to achieve good comprehension. This researcher used a quasi-experimental design by using the pretest-posttest control group design with purposive sampling technique. The pre-test and post-test scores of the experiment class, indicate that the t-obtained (5.44) is higher than the t-table (1.68488) with degree of freedom (df) = 39 and (α) = 0.05. Therefore, alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted and it means that there is significant effect of SCROL strategy toward the students’ reading comprehension on hortatory exposition text. The calculation of post-test both classes indicated that the t-o is (2.82) which is higher than the t-table (2, 02439), with degree of freedom 20 + 20 – 2 = 39 and (α) = 0,025. Thus, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted and it means that there is significant difference between using SCROL strategy and common strategy. Finally, t-obtained both of classes is (2.82) which is higher than t-table (1.68488) with (α) = 0. 05. Therefore, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted and it means that SCROL strategy is better than common strategy in teaching reading comprehension on hortatory exposition text.
