CHAPTER I A. Background of the study The objective of learning in SMK (vocational school) is to make

  students be able to communicate in English to support the s tudent’s major skills to enter labor market. In communication students can build a good relationship with each other by using language. In learning language, there are four skills that must be mastered by students, they are listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Reading is one of the most important skills of those.

  Reading is also an essential skill for all students in all stages.

  Reading is very useful in human life, because by reading someone would know about the world without having to go around the world. But in fact, reading is not as easy as what people think because it is not only about reading a sentence and saying it out to others but also we have to understand the content of the reading text and its purpose.

  English is one of many languages in the world. It is widely used in many field of life in this world. It has been used in global communication.

With these intelligences students can determine the potential and the weaknesses that students have, so they will be able to develop and students will understand how to relate well with others. It will help students to gain the knowledge that they need and recognize the ability of their own.

  According to Wheeler (2009: 352), students who have intrapersonal intelligence or ‘self smart’ are interested in doing a set of activities in language classroom which are totally different from those enjoyable to learner with interpersonal intelligence. Because students that have intrapersonal intelligence more enjoy having individualized and private space for studying. So, they have deep understanding in reading to measure their ability by themselves.

  Interpersonal intelligence is the ability to work together with others. Students will be easy to learn with discussion and share their opinion in group. Because students with this intelligence have ability to understand others feeling. Recognizing students intelligence can help them to gain learning process in reading better and to get more knowledge from others and

  Student’s intelligence isfundamentally different from each others. Each student has different ability and accuracy in learning process. So, students need to know their intelligence to improve their ability in reading with easier way.

  Based on that phenomenon, the writer wants to analyze a comparative study between intrapersonal and interpersonal intelligence of students to improve students ability in reading skill. So the writer chooses the title “THE DIFFERENCE OF

H. Graduating Paper Organization

  In this section, the writer will discuss about some parts of graduating paper organization. Chapter I is introduction, consisting of background of the study, limitation of the problem, statement of the problem, the objective of the study, the benefits of the study, definition of key terms, methodology of related and support the research. Chapter III is telling about setting of research, subject of the study, method of the research, procedures of research, technique of collecting data, and technique of data analysis. Chapter IV is describing about analysis of data. Chapter V is closure, containing conclusion and suggestion.

CHAPTER II RESEARCH THEORIES A. Theoretical Framework 1. Reading Reading is the process of acquiring an author

  ’s meaning and interpreting, evaluating, and affecting those meanings, Guy L. Bond Evan Bond Lagner, (1969: 4). Reading is a visual and cognitive process to extract meaning and from writing by understanding the written text, process information, and relating it to existing experience, Millrood (2001: 117).

  According to Reinking and Scheiner (in Kustaryo, 1988: 21) reading is an active cognitive process of interacting with print and monitoring comprehension to establish meaning. Lynn Beene (1992: 12) states that reading is the process of finding meaning in written

  Moreover, Strang (cited in Dian, 2003: 29) said that reading is more than seeing words clearly, more than pronouncing printed words correctly, more than recognizing the meaning of isolated words. Reading requires students to think, feel, and imagine.

  Based on the definition above, the writer comes to the summary of the definition of reading: b) Reading is visual and cognitive process to get information.

  c) Reading is an interpretation of graphics symbol.

  d) Reading is more than recognizing the meaning.

2. Reading skill

  Reading skill is the ability to relate the textual material to one’s own knowledge by comprehending the text (Fauziyati, 2008: 133). The purpose of reading activity is to obtain the meaning of language ideas. In reading, the process of thinking is very urgent and vital, because the students read the text and not merely move their eyes along the sentences they read. Instead the same time, their minds work to get the message. Goodman (1982: 135) in Fauziyati (2010: 33) states that based on psycholinguistics perspective reading is considered as “psycholinguistics guessing game” the reader construct a message which is encoded by a writer. This act of meaning construction is a testing, and confirming or revising these prediction and further sampling.

  According to Grant (1991: 79), the aims of using a reading text at intermediate level and advance level are; a)

  To teach basic reading comprehension skill

  b) To teach real life reading skill such as reading for gist and d) To develop critical reading skill

  e) To develop the students knowledge of vocabulary or idiom

  f) To reinforce certain grammatical features

g) To add stimulus for oral or written work later on.

3. The types of reading

  Reading skill can be divided into four types, there are: a.

  Scanning reading According to Risdianto (2012: 1) scanning is reading rapidly in order to find specific facts. When scanning students only try to locate specific information and do not even follow the linearity of the passage to do so. Students simply let their eyes wander over the text until students find what students are looking for, whether it be a name, a date, or a less specific piece of information, francoise Grallet (1988: 19). Scanning, on the information is relevant to stude nt’s purpose.

  b.

  Skimming reading Risdianto (2012: 1) states skimming is reading rapidly in order to get a general overview of the material. When skimming, students go through the material quickly in order to get the gist of it, to know how it is organized, or to get an idea of the tone or overall view of the context and implies a definite reading competence.

  c.

  Intensive reading The work of Palmer (1921) in Risdianto (2012: 1) notes that intensive reading means that the readers take a text, study it line by line, and refer at very moment to the dictionary about the grammar of the text itself. Intensive reading is reading for complete understanding of entire text.

  d.

  Extensive reading Extensive reading is an approach to language learning, including foreign language learning, by the means of a large amount of reading. Extensive reading is rapid reading for main idea of a large amount of text.

4. The principles of reading

  are: a.

  Reading is not passive skill. Reading is an incredibly active occupation. To do it successfully, we have to understand what the words mean.

  b.

  Students need to be engaged with what they are reading. As with everything else in lesson, students who are not engaged c.

  Students should be encouraged to responds to the content of a reading text, not just to the language. It is important to study reading text for the way they use language, the number of paragraphs they contain and how many times they use relative clause.

  d.

  Prediction is a major factor in reading. When we read text in our own language, we frequently have a good idea of the content before we actually read.

  e.

  Match the text to the topic. Once a decision has been taken about what reading text the students are going to read, we need to choose good reading task, the right kind of question, engaging and useful puzzle, etc.

  f.

  Good teachers exploit reading texts to the full. They integrate the reading text into interesting class sequences, using the topic for later activation.

5. The purposes of reading

  Risdianto (2012: 94) state that the purposes of reading are: a.

  Skimming for general information Students who want to find general information about a subject such as “frogs” will want to skim through a book or through the pages of the book or article quickly to find out whether it might cover the information students need.

  b.

  Scanning for specific information When a student wants to know how tadpoles (Indonesian: berudu, cebong) become frogs, students will need to scan a book or article about amphibians or frogs to find out whether the material covers tadpoles. When students scan, students will look at the title, the table of contents, the headings, and the index to find out if the material gives information about tadpoles.

  c.

  Reading to learn Another purpose for reading calls for reading carefully and slowly. When a student studies for a test, student will want to skim the book or chapter first to see what it covers. The students will read the headings and subheadings to discover how the book the material and what students already know.

  Once a student has a general idea about the material students want to learn, students will read the section carefully. It is a time to read with a dictionary close by and to check the glossary for words students don’t know. After reading the chapter or section carefully, the students will go back and review Different from Shah Mahmood (1992: 10) who states that the purposes of reading are: a.

  Reading for specific information Reading for specific information is a common form of reading used to discover specific or limited information.

  b.

  Reading for application Reading for application is used to accomplish a special task.

  c.

  Reading for pleasure an entertainment It includes reading popular magazines, newspaper, novels, and similar material.

  d.

  Reading for ideas This type of reading requires paying special attention to main ideas, concepts and the nature of the presented information. and conclusion in order to obtain a general of the content. Reading for idea is enhanced through familiarity with the overall field of study, related topics, facts, and discussion.

  e.

  Reading and understanding It requires comprehension of the relationship between the information introduced and overall knowledge of the subject. It William Grabe and Fredicka L. Stoller (2002: 13) state that the purposes of reading are: a.

  Reading to search for simple information b.

  Reading to skim quickly.

  c.

  Reading to learn from texts d.

  Reading to integrate information, write and critique texts.

  e.

  Reading for general comprehension 6.

   The aspects of Reading

  Some of the aspects of reading which deserves both specific attentions in isolated learning situation and at other time, more balanced attention in more normal reading situation are word recognition, comprehension and reflection. Dallman (1982: 25) states that the aspects of reading are: a.

  Word recognition recognizing words continues to enjoy support in respectable and influential quarters.

  b.

  Comprehension c. The vast majority of teachers do not endorse the claim that the individual who can recognize words can read. To them comprehension is an absolute necessity in reading.

  Many educators have pointed out that word recognition and comprehensions do not comprise the total of the reading act. During the process reading, when defined as gaining meaning from the printed page, it is necessary to be to hold ideas as they occur and conceptualize meaningful interpretation through reflection.

7. The Factors which Influence Students Reading Skill

  The students reading skill will be influenced by two kinds of factors. These factors come from students themselves or named as internal factor and from out of the students it is or named as external factor.

  a.

  Internal Factors 1)

  Physical factor are everything about students body, such as eyes, ears, mouth, hand, etc.

  Psychological factors consist of two elements, they are:

  a) Intellectual factor are factors which influence student ability in receiving materials, understanding the information or create the ideas. These factors consist of talent, intelligent, etc.

  b) Non intellectual factors are factors which influence student personality, this factor consist of attitude,

  1) Social factors consist of students family environment, school, society where students life, and students group such as students learning group, classmate and playmates.

  2) Cultural factors such as customs and traditions, knowledge, technology, and art.

  3) Equipment factors including student learning facilities in home and school.

B. Intelligence 1. Definition of Intelligence

  Intelligence comes from the Latin verb “intellegere”, which means “to understand”. By this rationale, intelligence (as understanding) is arguably different from being “smart” (able to adapt to one’s environment), or being “clever” (able to creatively adapt).

  (find Google) complex ideas, to adapt effectively to the environment, to learn from experience, to engage in various forms of reasoning, to overcome obstacles by taking thought. Although these individual differences can be substantial, they are never entirely consistent: a given person’s intellectual performance will vary on different occasion, in different domains, as judged by dif ferent criteria. Concept of “intelligence” is no such conceptualization has yet answered the entire important question and none commands universal assent. Indeed, when two dozen prominent theorists were recently asked to define intelligence, they gave two dozen somewhat different definitions.

  According to Sitatava (2013: 60) intelligence is a general term used to describe the nature of the mind which includes a number of capabilities, such as the ability to reason, plan, solve problems, think abstractly, comprehend ideas using language, and learning.

2. Intrapersonal intelligence

  According to Sitatava (2013: 65) intrapersonal intelligence is the ability to analyze themselves and reflect on themselves, able to contemplate in silence and assess one's accomplishments, review the person's behavior and feelings deepest, make plans and set goals to be achieved, know the true self. apersonal intelligence refers to one’s ability to understand student’s inner thoughts, feelings, desires, strengths, and weaknesses.

  This helps students know how students are different from or similar to others. Students also know how to act and behave and specific situation such as when students angry, happy, sad, or worried. Further, students like to be alone. Students are excellent when learning by themselves; that is, students are self/independent learner. Students do

  Intrapersonal intelligence can be defined as the ability to understand themselves and to act on that understanding, Muh. Yaumi (2012: 20). The core component of intrapersonal ability to understand self intelligence accurate include strengths and limitations, intelligence will moods, intentions, motivations, temperament and desires, as well as the ability to discipline themselves, understand, and appreciate himself. The ability to appreciate yourself also means knowing who he is, what can and want to do, how the self-reaction to a particular situation, and addressing it, as well as the ability to direct and reflection. Intrapersonal intelligence is the intelligence of the inner world, sourced intelligence in abundance, a thorough understanding of self in order to face, to plan, and solve various problems faced.

  An intelligent individual in intrapersonal intelligence has

  1. Regularly spend time alone to meditate, contemplate and think about various issues.

  2. Able to face setbacks, failure, obstacles with courage,

  3. Have a realistic view of the strengths and weaknesses of feedback obtained from other sources.

  Intrapersonal intelligence refers to an understanding of us in high intrapersonal intelligence can cause the students shy or insecure and tend to shy away from contact with other people. They are in tune with their inner feelings; they have wisdom, intuition and motivation, as well as a strong will, confidence and introspection.

  People who have intrapersonal intelligence are dominant and tend to have high self-awareness that they are able to process the clear objective of everything that is done today and the days to come. Intrapersonal intelligence refers to the individual's ability to recognize and accept that there are advantages and disadvantages in him. That is, an intelligent person in intrapersonal mean people aware of himself in depth, including feelings, ideas, and purpose of his life.

  For a more comprehensive understanding of intrapersonal characteristics, the following elaboration;

  1. Recognizing the well about matters relating to faith or

  2. Working alone is more productive than working in a group or team.

  3. Attitudes and behavior, affect methods and learning styles

  4. Happy to think and talk about the causes of the causes someone can help others.

  5. Open yourself or willing to protest or to sign a petition to fix

3. Interpersonal intelligence

  According to Sitatava (2013: 65) interpersonal intelligence is ability to work effectively with others, connect with others, show empathy and understanding, as well as pay attention to their motivations and goals.

  Interpersonal intelligence points out one’s ability to cooperate skillfully and effectively with others. Such people are friendly and sociable, thus students have many friends. Student’s can understand others’ feelings, intentions, interests, and motivations,Gardner (1999: 43).

  Interpersonal intelligence is the ability to understand the thoughts, attitudes, and behaviors of others (Gardner & Checkly, 1997: 12). This intelligence is the intelligence of the indicators is fun for everyone else. Attitudes exhibited by students in interpersonal intelligence can be defined as the ability to perceive and distinguish moods, intentions, motivations and desires of others, as well as ability to respond appropriately to the moods, temperaments, motivations and desires of others. By having interpersonal intelligence, the students can feel what others feel, capturing the intent and motivation of others to act something, and able to provide appropriate responses so that

  The core components of interpersonal intelligence are the ability to digest and respond appropriately various moods, intentions, motivation, feelings, and desires of others in addition to the ability to do the same job. While the other is the ability of sensitivity and ability to capture the subtle differences of the intent, motivation, mood, feelings and ideas of others. Those who have interpersonal intelligence are very concerned about others, have a high sensitivity to facial expressions, voice and gestures. Premises In other words, interpersonal intelligence involves many skills: the ability to empathize with others, ability in organizing group of people toward a common goal something recognizing capabilities and read the minds of others, the ability of friends or make contact.

  Interpersonal intelligence is the ability to read the signs and social cues, verbal and nonverbal communication, and is able to adjust muh.Yaumi, 2012:145). Interpersonal intelligence related to the concept of interaction with other people around. Interactions are intended not just ordinary relationship dividing discusses the ups and downs, but also to understand the thoughts, feelings, and the ability to provide empathy and response. Usually students who have interpersonal intelligence tend to be dominant in the group extroverts to work in a group as capable of understanding the nature and character of others with ease.

  Mork (2011) (cited in muh.Yaumi, 2012:145) focuses on four essential elements and interpersonal intelligence should be used to establish communication.

  1. Reading social cues Fully notice how others communicate, understand communication, understand verbal and nonverbal communication that is used to interact, watch successful and unsuccessful communication to determine what really makes communication run or not run properly.

  2. Giving empathy Trying to position themselves to be in another person's perspective when discussing about something in particular if resolve conflict, ask questions to find out what is really desired by the person in a situation. Comparing our desire to desire that person, and then look for similarities that can be compromised.

  3. Controlling emotions If you feel hot or tense about the topic being discussed, should step back for a cool atmosphere. After controlling the situation, and expressed a desire to work together and find solutions, focused on positive outcomes and avoid conflict.

  4. Expressing emotion in place.

  Knowing when express compassion and affection, emotional relationship, or express positive emotions. Learn how a smile, a member of praise, revealing a warm conversation, looking for things that are preferable to others, and revealing verbally as positive thoughts. Studying models of interpersonal relationships that have played others and imitate their actions build spirit and interpersonal relation in a team or group.

  In particular, the characteristics of people who have interpersonal intelligence are:

  1. Learning very well in a situation that build interactions with one another. and collaboration.

  3. The more associated premises of others, the happier. 4. had the pleasure of participating in social, religious, and political organizations.

  5. Very caring and attentive to the problems and social issues.

4. Intrapersonal intelligence and interpersonal intelligence in

  According to Sitatava (2012:176) intrapersonal intelligence has deep understanding in reading because students with intrapersonal intelligence like to think themselves. Students can understand well the meaning from the context and appreciate student’s knowledge. Than students with interpersonal intelligence enjoy to work in group because students can share their opinion with others to get a solution.

  Usually students with intrapersonal intelligence will feel difficult when they work in group because they can’t accept others idea or just be a passive. Students with interpersonal intelligence can work by self but need more time to finish the text. Because students with interpersonal intelligence like to work together and can be an active person when in group.

  Different from students that enjoys both intrapersonal and interpersonal intelligence, they are not only smart self but also able to work in group and share ideas with others.
