Problem Formulation Problem Limitation Research Objectives

In conclusion, the ninth grade students of SMP BOPKRI 10 Yogyakarta implemented ineffective and inefficient scanning technique which was considered as an interesting case to study. Therefore, conducting research about the implementation of scanning technique in reading comprehension activities by the ninth grade junior high school students is important due to the students’ need to be effective and efficient readers.

B. Problem Formulation

Considering the research background, this research is going to answer some questions as the guideline of the process of conducting and writing the research paper. The problems of the research are formulated as follows. 1. What are the characteristics of scanning technique reflected in the students’ steps to answer reading comprehension questions on National Examination? 2. What are the supporting and inhibiting factors of the implementation of the scanning technique by the ninth grade students of SMP BOPKRI 10 Yogyakarta to answer reading comprehension questions on National Examination? 3. What are the possible solutions for the ninth grade students of SMP BOPKRI 10 Yogyakarta to implement scanning technique effectively and efficiently?

C. Problem Limitation

This research would specifically provide in-depth study of the implementation of scanning technique in reading comprehension activities. The reading comprehension activities for junior high school students are the reading comprehension of descriptive, procedure, report, narrative, and recount. The researcher emphasized on those five texts since they are five texts the junior high school students oblige to understand their meanings GBPP: 2008. The investigation of this research mainly emphasized on students’ activities, comments, and attitudes when they were implementing scanning technique. The students involved in the research are the ninth grade students of SMP BOPKRI 10 Yogyakarta. Further elaboration on the research participants will be discussed on Chapter III.
