Abstract

The researcher conducted the research to increase the students’ reading skill through peer learing strategy in teaching procedure text. To make sure that peer learning as one of the strategies that can help the students, the research investigated about (1) How is the profile of the students’ reading skill on procedure text before using peer learning strategy in SMK N 2 Salatiga?, (2) How is the profile of the students’ reading skill on procedure text after using peer learning strategy in SMK N 2 Salatiga?, and (3) To what extent is the effectiveness of peer learning strategy in procedure text to improve the students’ reading skill in SMK N 2 Salatiga? The sample of this research is 54 students, 27 students came from Engineering of Industrial Electronic B class (TEI B) and 27 students came from Engineering of Audio and Video B class (TAV B). The passing grade is 75. Before treatment, none of the students from experimental and controlling classes passed the passing grade. After treatment, 59.25% students from experimental class passed the passing grade. 77.78% students from controlling class passed the passing grade. To analyze the data, the researcher used t-test. T-test (t_o) was -1.83. It uses the significant level of 5% and t-table (t_t) with df = (N_1+ N_2) - 2 = (27+27) – 2 = 52 is 2.007. The result is -1.83 < 2.007. From the data, the researcher can conclude that the score of t-test is lower than t-table. The null hypothesis (H_o) is accepted while the alternate hypothesis (H_a) is rejected. Therefore, there is no significant difference of the students’ reading skill on procedure text before and after having peer learning strategy.
