MA.
Keywords: Peer Learning Strategy, Procedure Text, Reading
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 skillin 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 (𝑡𝑜) was -1.83. It uses the significant level of 5% and t-table (𝑡𝑡) with df = (N1+ N2) - 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 (𝐻𝑜) is accepted while the alternate hypothesis (𝐻𝑎) is rejected. Therefore, there is no significant difference of the

CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
A. Background of the Research
Language is a tool of communication and information. By means of
language, people have chance to communicate with the others, share
experiences, learn each other, and improve intellectual and literature skills.
Consequently, Indonesian people are required to have good skills in language,
so they can communicate well. The communication is a process how the
teacher teaches concept, idea, opinion, agreement, attitude and information
using language to communicate to the students. Furthermore, the functions of
language include communication, expression of identity, playing, imaginative
expression, and emotional release.
English language as one of international language is familiar in the era
of globalization. Everybody knows English language. However, some people
learn and practice to use English language, and there still feel difficult to learn
English. Hence, English language starts to apply in Indonesia. Indonesian
goverment applies English in all schools in Indonesia. At the first time, the
students start to learn English in fourth grade in elementary school. Even now,
English language is taught in pre-school. The students have many problems
when they learn English. One of the problems is how to be a good reader. The
problem is underlined by the language itself that English is not the mother
tongue. There are also many difficulties on vocabularies that the students have
In addition, many people in Indonesia have difficulties to read English
texts because they do not have habit on it. It seems that they lack of passion on
it. Even university students still cannot read English Language well. The
researcher thinks that the students of vocational high school students have more
problems than university students. Eventually, the students’ reading skill is low. Reflecting to the facts in SMK N 2 Salatiga, the students learn four main
skills in English such as listening, writing, speaking and reading. Unfortunately,
they face difficulties on reading especially on reading text. Their reading skills
are still low. It is caused by some factors. First, they did not pay attention on
reading because they lack of habit on reading. Second, they have less interest
in reading because they face unfamiliar words and phrases. Third, the teacher
applies the method in the class but it does not match with the students’ interest. Hence, the researcher tries to improve the students’ reading skill on procedure text using peer learning strategy.
According to Goldschmid and Goldschmid as cited by Falchikov (2001:
1), a peer is broadly defined as mate in the same situation, while a peer group
consists of two mates in the same situation and interact each other. However,
the term ‘peer’ can also be used in teaching and learning context. It can be assumed that there are a variety of relationship between the students to
cooperate or work together to do the task from the teacher. The researcher is
also inspired by Theodore Newcomb (Newcomb and Wilson, 1966 as cited by
Falchikov, 2001: 1) to apply peer learning strategy. He identified that peer
Based on the explanation above, the researcher would like to make
research entitled “THE USE OF PEER LEARNING STRATEGY IN PROCEDURE TEXT TO IMPROVE STUDENTS’ READING SKILL
(An Experimental Research of the 𝟏𝟏𝒕𝒉 Grade of SMK N 2 SALATIGA in
the Academic Year 2016/2017)”. The researcher attempts to expose the use
of peer learning strategy on improving the students’ reading skill.
B. Statement of the Problems
To clarify the problems that are going to be analyzed, the statements of
the problems are formulated as follows:
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?
3. To what extent is the effectiveness of peer learning strategy in procedure
text to improve the students’ reading skillin SMK N 2 Salatiga?
C. Objectives of the Research
Based on the statement of the problems above, the objectives of the
research are as follows:
1. To find out the profile of the students’ reading skill on procedure text before using peer learning strategy in SMK N 2 Salatiga.
3. To measure how far is the effectiveness of peer learning strategy in
procedure text to improve students’ reading skillin SMK N 2 Salatiga.
D. Limitations of the Research
In order to come into focus on this research, the researcher limits the
research to be concerned as follows:
1. The research focuses on the implementation of peer learning.
2. The research focuses on procedure text.
3. The research is carried out at the eleventh grade students of SMK N 2
Salatiga in the academic year of 2016/2017.
E. Benefits of the Research
The researcher hopes that this research could provide information and
benefits for the readers. The significant of the research can be seen as follow:
1. Theoretical
This research helps the students to learn reading skill especially on
the procedure text. Therefore, the researcher hopes that this method helps
the varieties of teaching and learning for the teacher.
2. Practical
The result of the research is to give precious contribution to lectures,
vocational high school students and other researchers. For the lectures, this
research becomes a meaningful contribution in teaching reading skill. For
vocational high school students, this research hopefully can be used to
researcher, the result of the research is expected to be a previous research
for those who are interested in doing similar field of research.
F. Definition of the Key Terms
Based on the title of the paper, the key terms are needed to explain:
1. Peer Learning Strategy
According to Falchikov (2001: 3), peer learning is when the students
learn from each other in the same class and lessons. They interact each
other. By this interaction, the students can develop their skills and also can
increase their knowledge and understanding. It is important for the
students as Piaget (1971) as quoted by Falchikov (2001: 3) believes that
cooperation between the students promotes the encouragement to think
and discuss. Vigotsky (1962) as quoted by Falchikov (2001: 3) argues that
by peer learning the students’ skills that can be developed is highly can be attained without teacher’s guidance.
Meanwhile, according to Richards and Schmidt (2010: 559) strategy
can be defined as a way which is used in teaching and learning to reach a
goal. It can be assumed from those definitions that peer learning strategy
means a way of learning where the students learn materials by interacting
with each other to attain goals.
2. Procedure Text
According to Knapp and Watkins (2005: 157) say that procedural
instructions such as recipes and directions are concerned with telling
begin with the goal of the task, which is usually stated as a heading; for
example, ‘How to Make a Sandwich’ or ‘Directions for Using the Class Computer’. It can be said that procedure text includes guidance to do something. The example of procedure text can be a direction, instruction,
recipe, and itinerary.
3. Reading Skill
Reading skill is formed from two words, they are reading and skill.
According to Hunt (2004: 137) as cited by Hermida (2009: 23), reading is
a process shaped partly by the text, partly by the reader's background, and
partly by the situation, the reading occurs in. It can be assumed that reading
is the way of how the readers read and understand a text in hope for gaining
the purpose and information of the text.
According to Richards and Schmidt (2010: 532), skill is an acquired
ability to perform an activity in a good way. It can be concluded that
reading skill is an acquired ability to understand a text and the ability to
gain the information of the text in a good way.

CHAPTER II
LITERATURE REVIEW
A. Previous Researches
The researcher took relevant sources that related to this research. The
researcher used four previous researches. The first previous research came
from Thurston, et al. (2007), and the title was about “Peer Learning in Primary Science in Theoretical Perspective and Implementations for Class Practice”. The result of the researches explained that peer learning has an important role
to play in primary school science. However, in some educational contexts there
is a current trend away from using this important classroom strategy.
According to MacNab (2003) as quoted by Thurston, et al. (2007) reported that
in a sample drawn from 170 Local Education Authority and school
representatives, 46% of Scottish schools reported less peer learning since the
introduction of curriculum initiatives. The drop in reported peer learning may
be indicative of teachers losing the ability to apply an effective pedagogical
tool in the classroom. This was emphasized by Hutchison, et al. (2003) as
quoted by Thurston, et al. (2007) who reported there was a need to ensure that
peer learning was effective in classroom contexts, and concluded that education
was not just an activity that takes place in a group, but was a group activity. To
have maximum impact, it is clear that peer learning needs to be embedded into
the pedagogy and planning in individual curriculum areas. Therefore, there
may be a case for effective continuing professional development programs to
The second previous research came from Kodabux and Hoolash (2015).
The title was “Peer Learning Strategies: Acknowledging Lecturers’ Concerns of the Student Learning Assistant Scheme on a New Higher Education
Campus”. The Student Learning Assistant (SLA) scheme was introduced in 2010 at Middlesex University Mauritius Branch Campus (MUMBC). The
scheme is similar to traditional peer learning strategies, such as Peer Assisted
Learning (PAL) and Peer Assisted Study Sessions (PASS), which are widely
operated in higher education environments to motivate student engagement
with their learning. That research used qualitative approaches data gathering
have been employed to collect feedback from the teaching academic staff
through different formats, namely questionnaires, interviews, and focus group
meetings with each department at MUMBC. The result of the research said that
the lecturers’ general conception of peer learning at MUMBC principally
represents challenges to the development of a full-fledged SLA scheme on the
campus. The SLA’s role is limited and inflexible. They are restricted in the
tasks they can do during non-teaching classes only. Additional reasons
explaining why SLAs have not been used are not necessarily based on negative
notions of peer learning. Instead, some lecturers did not use the scheme because
they were responsible for newly introduced modules or for modules that have
undergone curriculum modifications and they wanted to familiarize themselves
with the changes first.
The third previous research was done by Umairoh (2015) entitled “The
Reading Skill in Eleventh Grade of SMA N 3 Salatiga in the Academic Year
2014/2015”. Her objective was to improve the students’ reading skill using Teams Game Tournament (TGT). The research was conducted in SMA N 3
Salatiga. She used experimental method. She compared two classes. From her
research, she founded improvement on students’ result that the score from pre -test to post--test significantly increased 32,15%. She claimed that Teams Game
Tournament (TGT) was successful to improve the students’ reading skill. The last previous research came from Svida (2016). Her title of the
research way about “Influence of E-library in Boosting High School Students’ Reading Habits and Skills”. As a whole the sample of this study consists of 306 users of libraries: 102 students of Senior High Schools (51 girls and 51 boys)
came from each type of school (namely 36 schools which are accredited A, B,
and C) in South Sumatra. Data collection was conducted by means of a
questionnaire and a test. Based on the result and the a formentioned description,
it can be concluded that: (1) the use of libraries was influenced by the existence
of important features of libraries such as acquisition or procurement of library
materials which are relevant and updated, sufficient length of service-time, and
the provision of information and communication technology (ICT); (2) reading
attitude, reading habit, and reading achievement of the students of Senior High
Schools (SMA) in South Sumatra were still low; (3) there was a significant difference between males and females in regard to reading attitude and habit,
students from the schools accredited A, had far better achievement in reading
compared to the students who came from the schools accredited B or C.
By considering the previous researches, the researcher conducted
research entitled “The Use of Peer Learning Strategy in Procedure Text to
Improve Students’ Reading Skill (An Experimental Research of the 11𝑡ℎ Grade of SMK N 2 Salatiga in the Academic Year 2016/2017)”. First previous research focused on peer learning in theoretical perspectives and
implementations. However, in this research, the researcher had deeper focus on
the implementations how peer learning improved students’ reading skill using procedure text. Second previous research was qualitative research using peer
learning strategy, but the researcher used quantitative in this research to find
the data. The researcher also focused in reading skill. The third previous
research was TGT method to improve the students’ reading skill. TGT was using groups that consisted more than two students in groups, however, in this
research, the researcher made a group that consisted by two students in the
learning process. The last previous research was about the influence of e-library
in boosting high school students’ reading habits and skills. The research
focused on media, but this research focused on strategy that the teacher used in
class. The teacher could pair the students between a smart student and an
B. Concept of Reading
1. Definition of Reading
In this research, the skill is reading. There are some definition of
reading from experts. According to Duffy (2009: 3) says that the main thing
in reading is to develop students who do read. According to Spears (2013: XVI), the readings are accompanied by a variety of practice exercises to
reinforce good reading skill and to help students develop a college-level
vocabulary. According to Spears (2013: XVII), reading also provides
students with a way for them to understand the world around them and to
search for meaning in their own lives. In addition, according to Duffy (2009:
13)
“A skill is something you do automatically without thinking about it. You do it the same way every time. Tying your shoes is an example of a skill. An example of a reading skill is instantly recognizing and saying a word such as the.”
Therefore, the researcher can assume that reading skill is activities
to read books, and the readers try to understand the content of the text. The
readers also are easy to get the knowledge from text without confused to
understand the texts.
2. Elements of Reading
The researcher, to evaluate the score of the students, uses some
elements of reading. There are fluency, pronunciation, stress and intonation.
According to Nunan (2003: 55), fluency is the extent to which speakers use
the language quickly and confidently, with few hesitations or unnatural
According to Harmer (2001: 183), pronunciation teaching not only
makes students aware of different sounds and sound features (and what
these mean), but can also improve their speaking immeasurably.
According to Harmer (2001: 191), stress is important in individual
words, in phrases, and in sentences. By shifting it around in a phrase or a
sentence, we can change emphasis or meaning.
According to Montgomery, Durant, Fabb, Furniss, and Mills (2007:
351 – 352)
“Intonation is melodic patterning of the voice, combining upward or downward pitch movements with contrasts achieved by placing the principal stress in different places in any given group of words. Intonation conveys information, feeling or attitude that go beyond the meanings of the actual words. Apart from occasional italics or capitals, written texts do not notate intonation; readers of words on a page assign different, imagined intonation patterns to what they read.”
3. Rubrics of Evaluation of the Students’ Reading Skill
According to McKay, Alderson, and Bachman (2008: 118), rubrics
are the instructions that are used in an assessment task are a component of
the characteristics of assessment task procedures. The way that instructions
are given (for example, by the teacher, in writing, on a tape), the length and

almost impossible to understand
Inadequate use of intonation makes the
speaker very difficult to follow without
compensation

Adequate use of intonation, making the
intelligibility of the message fairly
high, although there are occasional
lapses

Good use of intonation makes the
listener easy to follow

Perfect use of intonation makes the
listener very easy to understand and

4. Indicators of the Successful of the Students’ Reading Skill
The researcher combines from two experts to know the indicator of
According to Duffy (2009: 21), successful readers pay attention to
what is happening and anticipate that there might be a need to change a
prediction.
According to Duffy (2009: 21), successful readers stop and use fix
– it strategies to problem – solve a blockage to meaning.
According to Duffy (2009: 23), successful readers seldom
implement each strategy separately but instead combine several strategies
together.
According to Duke and Pearson (2002: 205) say that the students are
active readers, and they have clear goals in mind for their reading.
According to Duke and Pearson (2002: 206) say that the students try
to determine the meaning of unfamiliar words and concepts in the text, and they
deal with inconsistencies or gaps as needed.
According to Duke and Pearson (2002: 205) say that the students
read selectively - what to read carefully, what to read quickly, what not to
read, what to reread, and so on-, continually making decisions about their
reading.
According to Duke and Pearson (2002: 206) say that the students
read different kinds of text differently. When reading narrative, The students attend closely to the setting and characters. When reading
expository text, these readers frequently construct and revise summaries of
5. Intensive Reading
According to Harmer (2001: 204), intensive reading tends to be
more concentrated, less relaxed, and often dedicated not so much to
pleasure as to the achievement of a study goal. It means that the students
read some text from teacher related with curriculum. From the curriculum,
the teacher applies in syllabus.
6. Roles of the Teacher
According to Harmer (2001: 213) says that there are further roles
teachers need to adopt when asking students to read intensively such as
organizer, observer, feedback organizer, and prompter.
First, according to Harmer (2001: 213) says that organizer means that
the teachers need to tell the students exactly what their reading purpose is,
and give them clear instructions about how to achieve it, and how long they
have to do this. For example: teacher said that “You have four minutes to
read this text.”
Second, according to Harmer (2001: 213), observer means that when
the teacher ask students to read on their own, the teacher can observe their
progress since this will give us valuable information about how well they
are doing individually and collectively.
Third, according to Harmer (2001: 213), feedback organizer means
that when our students have completed the task, we can lead a feedback
The last point is prompter. According to Harmer (2001: 213) says that
prompter is when students have read a text we can prompt them to notice
language features in the text.
7. Reading Aloud
According to Brown (2003: 190), reading aloud is the test-taker that
sees separate letters, words, and/or short sentences and reads them aloud,
one by one, in the presence of an administrator. The researcher took test
using reading aloud in this research. The students’ reading skill was shown by this test when the students read a text.
C. Concept of Procedure Text
1. Purpose of Procedure Text
According to Barwick, et al. (1999: 44), the main purpose of a
procedure is to direct, information or explanation. A procedure text explain
how to do something.
2. Types of Procedure Text
According to Barwick, et al. (1999: 44), there are different types of
procedure texts. They serve different purposes. Procedure texts can instruct
how to do a certain activity. It can be science experiments, stage directions,
road safety rules, itineraries, and recipes. By reading a procedure text, the
reader can be directed in appropriate step to do something. Procedure texts
normally consist of directions and instructions.
Procedure texts communicate the rules and stages for all activities.
on an experiment and can be found in letters, games, pamphlets, newspaper,
magazine, etc.
3. Structure of Procedure Text
According to Barwick, et al. (1999: 45) explain that a procedure text
consists of three main parts. They are aim or goal, list of materials, and
sequence of steps in correct order.
a. An introductory statement (Title)
According to Barwick, et al. (1999: 45)
“It gives the heading, the goal or the aim of the activity and states what the procedure is aiming to achieve. Sometimes the goal is
indicated in the main heading for example, ‘Building a Modal of a Dinosaur’. This may be aided by a diagram or map.”
b. List of materials
According to Barwick, et al. (1999: 45) say that It is needed for
completing the procedure. This part usually provide list of things that
will be used. Sometimes, it can be in form of paragraph. In certain
procedure text, this part may be omitted.
c. The method or sequence of steps
According to Barwick, et al. (1999: 45) say that It written in the order
in which they should be completed.
4. Language Features of Procedure Text
According to Barwick, et al. (1999: 45), a procedure text is usually
characterized by some language features, they are:
b. Using conjunction to show chronological order, for example: before,
while, then, after, when,
c. Using action verb to start sentences, for example: take, put, link,
d. Using short statements or commands, for example: Pick them up,
e. Using adjectives to add detail related to size, shape, color, and amount,
for example: Place the red cube there,
f. Using specific words related to direction and location, for example: left,
north, right,
g. Using simple present tense,
h. Using underline and bold style to emphasis important information,
i. Using adverbs, preposition and adverbial phrases to add detail
information about how, where, and when,

D. Concept of Peer Learning
1. Definition of Peer Learning
According to Topping (2005: 631) defines that peer learning do
help and support among status equal or match companions gain
knowledge and skill acquisition. It is possibly as a collaborative learning
has taken place. However, it includes people from similar groupings. In
this case, they are students in the schools or even colleges. They are not
professional as teachers who help each other to learn. Topping explains
that peer learning includes peer helper as a surrogate teacher. The peer
helper can be their classmates.
Boud, Cohen, Sampson (2013: 413-414) explain that peer learning
can be defined as the use of teaching and learning strategies without
intervention from the teacher in which the students learn and study with
each other. It means that the teaching and learning is student-oriented. The
example of peer learning may be include study groups, team projects,
student-to-student learning partnership, and peer feedback sessions in
class.
Meanwhile, Falchikov (2001: 3) states that peer learning refers to
a learning activity in which the students learn with and from each other. It
is usually within the same class or lesson. The students interact with their
peer or partner to increase their knowledge and comprehension. It is
important because, as Falchikov explains, it influences on the students’
Based on the definition from some experts above, it can be
concluded that peer learning is a strategy from the teacher in which the
students learn material with and from their peer or partner that aim to gain
better knowledge and understanding.
2. Importance of Peer Learning
Slavin (1990) as cited by Boud, Cohen and Sampson (2013: 415)
explains that peer learning has been promoted to help development of
certain types or aspects learning skills. Those skills, which relate to peer
learning, are as follow:
a. The development of learning outcomes related to collaboration,
teamwork, and becoming a member of a learning community.
b. Critical inquiry and reflection.
c. Communication skills.
d. Learning to learn.
Furthermore, there are some reasons the importance of peer
learning:
According to Boud, Cohen and Sampson (2013: 415), peer
learning involves the students to work together. They develop their
collaboration skills. It makes them to be more active managing and
planning on teamwork. It means that they are become the part of learning
According to Boud, Cohen and Sampson (2013: 415), the
possibilities for the students to reflect and explore the ideas easily are high.
It is because they do not depend on the teacher.
According to Boud, Cohen and Sampson (2013: 415-416), the
students get more practice in communicating the problems. Here means
the learning material itself. Later, the students are able to convey their
understanding to their peer and directly get feedback from their peer.
According to Boud, Cohen and Sampson (2013: 416), peer
learning includes a group of students who have responsibility to identify
their own learning needs. They also learn how to plan and do problem
solving on their own. Thus, learning to cooperate with others is important
to gain mutual goals.
Later, Boud, Cohen and Sampson (2013: 416) address that
assessing peer learning is also important. There are three main reasons
underlie, they are:
a. Addressing important educational outcomes
Peer learning can help the students achieving particular learning
outcomes. It can also be used to reach other course goals, which is not
developed beforehand.
b. Valuing peer learning
As peer learning has not previously been highly valued in formal
c. Recognizing commitment
Peer learning can pursue a wider range of learning outcomes.
3. Implementation of Peer learning
Topping (2005: 633) explains that there are some variables need
to consider in the delivery of peer learning. Methods for peer learning can
vary on at least 13 organizational dimensions, they are:
a. Curriculum content
It is the knowledge or skill to be achieved.
b. Contact constellation
Peer learning in pairs is more intensive because there is less
opportunity to drift into token participation in a pair.
c. Within or between institutions
Peer learning do not only take place within the same institutions, but
also can be taken place between different institutions.
d. Year of study
The students may be from the same or different years of study, or in
the same or different ages.
e. Ability
There is increasing interest in same ability peer learning. One student
may have superior mastery than the other one, or both of them may be
have equal ability.
f. Role continuity
g. Time
Peer learning may be scheduled in regular class or outside, or in a
combination of both. It depends on the extent to which it is
substitutional or supplementary for regular teaching.
h. Place
Peer learning have various location of operation.
i. Helper characteristics
If the students are in the average stage, the students should find some
challenge in their joint activities.
j. Characteristic of the helped
All students deserve peer learning even though they may be gifted,
having disabilities, considered at risk of under-achievement, failure,
or those from ethnic, religious, linguistics, and other minorities.
k. Objectives
The target can be cognitive skill such as formal academic achievement,
affective and attitudinal gains, social and emotional gains, self-image
and self-concept gains, or any combinations.
l. Voluntary or compulsory
The project of peer learning can require participation.
m. Reinforcement

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
A. Location of the Research
1. General Situation of SMK N 2
The researcher conducted experiment research in SMK Negeri 2
Salatiga. It is favorite vocational high school in Salatiga. It is located on Jln.
Parekesit, Dusun Warak, Desa Dukuh, Kecamatan Sidomukti, Kota Salatiga.
SMK Negeri 2 Salatiga built in 1999. Before it had only three departments,
but right now, it has five departments and five specialized departments. It
has five departments with five specialized departments. The five
departments are engineering of building, engineering of electronics,
engineering of computer and network, automotive engineering, and
engineering of mechanics. In addition, it has the five specialized
departments. It divides from two departments. Engineering of building has
civil engineering, engineering of furniture, engineering of architecture, and
engineering of electronics has engineering of audio-video, and engineering
of industrial electronic. The principle of SMK Negeri 2 Salatiga is Drs.
Kamaruddin, M.Pd. In 2016-2017, SMK Negeri 2 Salatiga has 1731
students.
2. Time Schedule of the Research
The researcher planned the time schedule in hope for the research
was conducted smoothly. The research was done on April 2017. The table

B. Research Approach
According to Colwell (2006: 95), research is a systematic process by
which investigators gather information, organize it in a meaningful way, and
analyze and interpret it.
The researcher used quantitative research in this research. According to
Kothari (2004: 3), quantitative research is based on the measurement of quantity
or amount. According to Darmawan (2014: 128) says that it indicated
ontologically that object study of a quantitative research is phenomenon and
general relations between those phenomena. According to Lehman (1968) as
quoted by Colwell (2006: 95), quantitative methods greatly enhanced the study
of musical processes by providing the accuracy and rigor required to produce
quantative research is research to find quantitiy in the phenomena in the
quantitative research.
C. Research Design
According to Smith (1991: 177) as quoted by Cohen, Manion, and
Morrison (2007: 272) claims that the high ground for the experimental approach,
arguing that it is the only method that directly concerns itself with causality.
According to Cohen, Manion, and Morrison (2007: 272), the essential feature
of experimental research is that investigators deliberately control and
manipulate the conditions which determine the events in which they are
interested, introduce an intervention and measure the difference that it makes.
Experimental research has three types, but true-experimental design uses
in this research. According to Sumanto (2014: 227), true-experimental design
shows very high control design. According to Sumanto (2014: 232),
true-experimental design controls almost all sources of internal and external
non-validity.
According to Creswell (2012: 310), the researcher assigns intact groups
the experimental and control treatments, administers a pretest to both groups,
conducts experimental treatment activities with the experimental group only,
and then administers a posttest to assess the differences between the two groups.
Therefore, the researcher managed pre-test for both control and experimental
group. According to Sumanto (2014: 233) uses pre test-post test control group

the independent variable X
Y2 : Dependent variable after the manipulation of
the independent variable X
To make the data in this research complete and clear, the researcher
describes the design as follows:

In this research, the researcher had population and sample from SMK N
2 Salatiga. According to Kothari (2004: 55) states that population is all pieces
in any field of research. The population of this research was eleven grade in
engineering of electronics of SMK N 2 Salatiga consisting of 177 students.
According to Cohen, Manion, and Morrison (2007: 115), in purposive
sampling, the sample is chosen for a specific purpose to be the representatives.
It means that the researcher chooses randomly sample from the population of
subject in a population, then the researcher should decide the sample size
between range of 25-30% of the whole population. From population of
engineering of electronics in SMK N 2 Salatiga, The researcher got 177 students,
and it divided into engineering of audio-video, and engineering of industrial
electronic. The researcher select 30% of the population, and it became the
sample. The calculation of result showed 30% of 177 was 54 students.
Later, the researcher choosed 54 students from two eleven grade class of
engineering of audio-video class, and engineering of industrial electronic class
in SMK N 2 Salatiga. The first class consisted 27 students while the second
class was 27 students.
E. Method of Data Collection
The researcher uses two methods of collecting data to carry out the
research. Kothari (2004: 96) states that the data can be collected through
observation method, questionnaire, interview, documentation, test, etc. In this
research, the researcher used test as the primary method. Then, documentation
was the secondary method.
1. Test
a. Pre-Test
According to Sumanto (2014: 234), pre-test uses to know how
far the groups have same dependend variable or not. Therefore, the
researcher conducts pre-test. It aims to know how far the reading skill
of the students. Therefore, the researcher is able to know that dependend
b. Post-Test
After receives the intervention of peer learning strategy. The
students are asked for doing the post-test.
2. Documentation
The researcher used documentation as the secondary method to
collect the data. In this research, the researcher makes a record the students’ attendance list, list of the students’ scores, test sheet, photos and videos of the report.
F. Research Instrument
The researcher applied reading test for this research. The students
needed to read aloud a procedure text. A student read aloud the text, one by one.
The researcher gave the score of their performances. The rubric of pre-test and
post-test would be explained in table 2.1 rubric of oral reading.
G. Method of Data Analyses
The researcher does some steps to analyze the data, they are:
1. Scoring the Students’ Test
The researcher scored the result of pre- and post-test from both
experimental and control group. There are four aspects. The researcher has
formula to count the score, and it explains bellow.
A student score = 𝐹+𝑃+𝑆+𝐼 4
Fluency = F
Stress = S
Intonation = I
2. Calculating the Result of the Test
After the students’ test was scored, the researcher calculated the data using t-test to determine whether there was significant difference or not
before and after the treatment for both experimental and control group. The
researcher takes the following steps as Sudijono (2010: 306-315) explains:
a. Calculating the mean (M) from each group using the following
formula:
𝑀 =∑𝑥𝑁
M = Mean
∑x = Total score
N = Number of students
b. Calculating the standard deviation difference (SDD)
𝑆𝐷𝐷= √∑𝐷
SDD= Standard deviation
N = Number of students
D = Difference between pre- and post-test
c. Calculating the standard error of mean difference (SEMD)
𝑆𝐸𝑀𝐷=
𝑆𝐷𝐷
√𝑁 − 1
N = Number of students d. Calculating f-test
According to Ritonga (1997: 300) formulates
F = 𝑆1 2 𝑆22
F = f-value of observation
𝑆1/𝑆2 = Standard error of mean difference
If f-test is lower than f-table, it uses equal variance (f-test < f-table).
If f-test is higher than f-table, it uses unequal variance (f-test > f-table).
e. Calculating t-test (to)
According to Ritonga (1987: 209) formulates t-test (to) for equal
variance According to Ritonga (1987: 207) formulates t-test (to) for unequal
f. Comparing t-value (to) with t-table (tt)
Criteria of hypothesis accepted describes as follows:
to> tt = Reject null hypothesis (𝐻𝑜) and accept alternate hypothesis
(𝐻𝑎)
to< tt = Accept null hypothesis (Ho) and reject alternate hypothesis
(𝐻𝑎)
H. Hypothesis
Based on the research method explained above, the researcher
formulates the statistical hypothesis. According to Creswell (2012: 111),
hypothesis is statement in quantitative research in which the researcher makes
a prediction about the outcome of a relationship among attributes or
characteristics.
In this research, the researcher formulates null hypothesis (Ho) say that
there is no significant difference of the students’ reading skill on procedure text before and after having peer learning strategy. The researcher formulates
CHAPTER IV

e. Treatment
After the researcher conducted pre-test, he conducted treatment
for the subjects. The research process divided into two classes. The
experimental class is Engineering of Industrial Electronic B class (TEI
B), and the controlling class is Engineering of Audio and Video B class
(TAV B). In experimental class, the researcher divided the students into
peer (a group consisted two students). The researcher played the video
about how to make sandwich. After the students watched the video,
they gave questions about procedure text from the information that they
got from video. The teacher distributed the materials about procedure
text, and the students read the procedure text with their partners. After
they worked with their partner, the teacher ordered to the students to
perform about procedure text, to show up how to make a paper boat
step by step, and to read aloud about the step with their partners. After
having the students’ performance, the teacher gave feedback and
reinforcement about their performance.
In controlling class, the students worked in groups. Each group
consisted of four students. The controlling class had higher enthusiasm
than experimental class joining the lesson. The steps of teaching and
explained and gave explanation how to make a paper boat step by step.
At the end, the students received feedback and reinforcement about their
performance.

the Students’ Reading Skill in SMK N 2 Salatiga
After the researcher calculated the data of pre-test and post-test of
the students, the teacher tried to find out the effectiveness between
experimental and controlling class. The students consisted of 54 students
from Engineering of Industrial Electronic B class (TEI B), and Engineering
of Audio and Video B class (TAV B) in SMK N 2 Salatiga. 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). Then,
the researcher calculated the different square of pre-test and post-test
students, and it is explained bellow:
a. Differences Between Pre-test and Post-test of Experimental Class
After the researcher calculated the pre-test and post-test of
experimental class, the researcher calculated different square of pre-test
and post-test of experimental class.
