Abstract

This research aims to look at the effect of the Multipass strategy in teaching reading on students’ reading comprehension (A Library Research). The Multipass strategy and reading comprehension function as the independent variable and dependent variable consecutively. The Multipass strategy is a teaching strategy that aims to increase students' reading ability by using three main procedures; survey-pass, size-up pass, and sort-out pass. The researcher focuses on the lack of students' reading comprehension and aims to find out the effectiveness of the Multipass strategy to improve students' reading comprehension skills. The method of this study is library research and the data attached in this research are obtained from the previous works of the other researchers and some literature sources include journals, books, articles, and internet websites. The data analysis technique includes the process of data identification from relevant literature sources, determining where the data are located, obtaining the data, evaluating the data, and incorporating data into the research presentation. The results of this study show that the students reading comprehension skills were improved after they were given the treatment of the Multipass strategy using ten teaching instructions and the three Multipass main procedures (survey-pass, size-up pass, and sort-out pass). The results were proven by the students' test scores and validity tests. To sum up, the Multipass strategy is considered as the teaching strategy to improve students' reading comprehension skills.

Students’ vocabulary mastery is influenced by many factors. In this research, researcher wants to know if there is significant influence towards the students’ vocabulary mastery by using a game called I Spy as the technique used in this research. This research is a quantitative approach with pre-experimental design, one group pretest-posttest. The subjects of this research were the first grade students of junior high school. The class chosen as the experimental class was VII2 which consisted of 30 students at SMP Negeri 2 Takengon with 15 female students and 15 male students. The data was collected from the pretest and posttest result and analyzed by using statistical formula. The analysis result of this study proved that the students’ posttest scores are significantly increased higher than the pretest scores which the mean of pretest was 46.7 and the mean of posttest was 70.5 and the gain between the means was 23.8. According to the data analysis result, it can be inferred that students’ tests scores increased after the I Spy game technique was applied which means that it also influences students’ vocabulary mastery.
