The Effectiveness Of Vocabulary Note Card Technique On Students' Inferential Reading

Abstract

This research is committed by the aim to know the effectiveness in teaching reading skills after being taught by vocabulary note card technique. It used a pre-experimental design as the method, and there are 20 students as the sample of this study. The result shows that the average achievement of the students' pre-test was 59%. Pre-test values had succeeded out of criteria minimum value ≥65% were five students (25%) of 20 students. And the post-test value of students obtained the average achievement was 77, 50%. It was successful of criteria minimum value. The N-Gain score was 15 students of 20 students getting medium category. Five students of other were two students getting the high type and three students getting a low variety. The final arithmetic that determined the result of pre-test and a post-test score of paired sample t-test formula on the SPSS program indicated that the value of sig (2-tailed) was 0,000. The critical value used 5%= 0.05 as the level of significance. It means the formula of Paired Sample T-Test had obtained the value of sig (2-tailed) was lesser than the critical of value (0,000<0, 05). It was the significance of pre-test and post-test scores. Finally, it can be said that the teacher can use this technique as one of the learning techniques.
