ABSTRAK
Rahmayanti, Tia Nur. 2018. Pemahaman membaca siswa dengan ketertarikan
membaca yang berbeda (Studi di SMA N 1 Tahunan Jepara) .Skripsi. Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris Fakultas Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan Universitas Muria Kudus. Pembimbing: (1) Dra. Sri Endang Kusmaryati, M.Pd., (2) Titis Sulistyowati, S.S, M.Pd.
Dalam memahami sebuah teks atau cerita, ketertarikan membaca adalah elemen penting yang berefek pada kemampuan siswa dalam memahami cerita. Ketertarikan membaca dalam hal ini adalah ketertarikan membaca cerita dalam negeri dan ketertarikan membaca cerita luar negeri yang mana mereka dapat memahami keseluruhan verita atau mereka tidak dapat menangkap maksud dibalik cerita tersebut. Yang mana, fungsi dari ketertarikan membaca adalah untuk menarik perhatian siswa sehingga mereka dapat memahami cerita dengan baik. Berdasarkan pada pengalaman peneliti dalam mengikuti program pelatihan mengajar di SMA N 1 Tahunan Jepara, Buku pegangan yang mana digunakan oleh guru Bahasa Inggris berisikan banyak jenis cerita luar negeri yang asing bagi siswa dan sulit untuk dipahami oleh mereka. Berdasarkan situasi ini, penelitian ini membandingkan pemahaman membaca siswa antara siswa kelas sepuluh SMA N
1 Tahunan Jepara pada tahun pelajaran 2017/2018 dengan ketertarikan membaca cerita dalam negeri dan ketertarikan membaca cerita luar negeri. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui apakah ada perbedaan yang bermakna pada pemahaman membaca siswa anta siswa kelas sepuluh SMA N 1 Tahunan Jepara pada tahun pelajaran 2017/2018 dengan ketertarikan membaca cerita dalam negeri dan ketertarikan membaca cerita luar negeri. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan desain kausal komparatif non eksperimental. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas sepuluh SMA N 1 Tahunan Jepara dengan guru dan mata pelajaran Bahasa Inggris Wajib yang sama. Sampel yang diambil berjumlah 60 siswa dengan ketertarikan membaca cerita dalam negeri dan ketertarikan membaca cerita luar negeri. Untuk menganalisis data, peneliti menggunakan formula nilai rata
- – rata, standar deviasi dan uji independen sampel t-test. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa siswa dengan ketertarikan membaca cerita dalam negeri memiliki nilai rata
- – rata 78,94 dengan standar deviasi 7,21 dan nilai ini dikategorikan baik. Sedangkan siswa dengan ketertarikan membaca cerita luar negeri memiliki nilai
- – rata 75,15 dengan standar deviasi 8,1 dan nilai ini dikategorikan cukup. Selanjutnya hasil uji independen sampel t-test dengan level signifikansi 0,05 dan derajat kebebasan 58 menunjukkan bahwa t-hitung lebih besar daripada t-tabel (t hit = 3.621 > t tab = 2.0017). Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah adanya perbedaan yang bermakna pada pemahaman membaca siswa antara siswa kelas sepuluh SMA N 1 Tahunan Jepara
- – cerita luar negeri untuk dibaca dan dipelajari. Siswa dapat mempelajari cerita
