Key Words: Metacognitive Strategies, Reading Comprehension
This research discusses the use of metacognitive strategies to improve students’
reading comprehension. The aims of this research are: 1) to find out the differences
between the students who are taught reading comprehension by using
metacognitive strategies and those who are taught reading comprehension by not
using metacognitive strategies, 2) to find out the students’ perception toward the
implementation of metacognitive strategies in learning reading comprehension.
The data were obtained from 50 students from two classes (groups), Control Group
and Experimental Group. The instruments used for collecting the data were test
(pre-test and post-test) and questionnaire. The data collection was divided in four
different phases of research execution; pre-test, treatment, post-test, and
questionnaire. The results of the test were analyzed quantitatively by using
statistical formula proposed by Brown (1993) and Sundayana (2010) to see the
significance differences between the two groups. The results show that there was
statistically significant difference of using metacognitive strategies in teaching
reading comprehension to the students compared to those who are not using
metacognitive strategies in learning reading comprehension. The statistical
calculation illustrates that t-value (6.03) > t-table (2.01). It means that the
alternative hypothesis was accepted. Further, the results of the students’s responses
in the questionnaire also show the positive impact, such as; the positive
classrooms’ athmosphere, improve students’ motivation in learning, improve the
students’ knowledge, and so on.
