ABSTRACT
Supervisor : Rojab Siti Rodliyah, S. Pd., M. Ed
Co- Supervisor : Ernie Diyahkusumaning A. I, S. S., M. Ed
This study reports on the use of ‘One Stays Rest Stray’ (OSRS) technique in teaching
reading comprehension of Narrative text. The aims of this study are to investigate the
extent to which the use of OSRS technique helps students’ reading comprehension and to examine students’ responses to the use of OSRS technique in classroom. This study employed a qualitative research design, embracing characteristics of a case study. The data were obtained from non- participant classroom observation, written documents, and close and open- ended questionnaire. All the data were analyzed by using theories of aspects of reading comprehension (Morsy et al., 2010), supported the theories from Moreillon (2007), Westwood (2008), Burns et al. (2005), Klingner et al. (2007), Rice (2013), and Ueta (2005), theories of cooperative learning (Jacobs et al., 2006; Jolliffe, 2007; McDonell, 1992; Shoval & Shulruf, 2011), and theories of OSRS technique (Jacobs et al., 2006; Kagan, 2009; Surjosuseno, 2011; Agust et al., 2012; Felder & Brent, 2007). The results of the data in this study revealed that the use
of OSRS technique helped students’ reading comprehension by covering aspects of
reading comprehension namely background knowledge, vocabulary knowledge, reading fluency, and comprehension strategies. The OSRS technique facilitated students in activating their background knowledge to connect to the text, finding out
vocabulary knowledge in reading, improving students’ reading fluency, and covering
comprehension strategies so that they could engage in reading actively and comprehend the Narrative text better and easier. Besides, Students responded positively towards the use of OSRS technique in their learning. They felt motivated to participate and enjoyed in reading activities. Based on these findings, it is recommended that further research in the same field of this study investigate the use of the OSRS technique for teaching different types of texts and for different grade.

CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
This chapter presents the introduction which reviews background, research
questions, aims of the study, scope of the study, significance of the study, research
methods, clarification of related terms, and organization of the paper.
1.1 Background
Reading as a receptive skill is important to be mastered by students
because it deals with other skills such as listening, speaking, and writing. As
asserted by Brown (2001), reading has its own role in each language skill. In
listening, for example, reading takes its role in giving informative statements.
Meanwhile, it becomes the topic under discussion in speaking skill. Reading skill
is also needed to get information of the passage before students paraphrase the
passage in writing activity.
In Indonesian context, reading skill can be generally categorized as
reading comprehension especially in senior high school (Cahyono & Widiati,
2006; National Curriculum, 2006). Based on the National Curriculum (2006),
students of senior high school are expected to be able to comprehend texts and
develop their ability both in oral and written to achieve informational level in
which they are capable of accessing language ability as priority in global
challenges. Unfortunately, most of the teaching of reading comprehension in
senior high school is still conducted as teacher-centered approach. This is in line

THE USE OF ‘ONE STAYS REST STRAY’ TECHNIQUE IN TEACHING READING COMPREHENSION OF NARRATIVE TEXT

consequence, students get bored to learn reading. In addition, Burns, Hood and
Solomon (2005) state that the teaching of reading comprehension is still
considered as the teaching of grammatical rules which draws a line of students’ literacy levels only. Whereas, reading comprehension particularly should be able
to be obtained by students from many things for instance specific information,
vocabulary, or text structure.
In order to solve the problems above, the ideal teaching reading
comprehension should be built to create activities which involve some movements
and language knowledge including overall structure of language, literacy, and
content of a text (Burns et al., 2005; Ari, 2002, as cited in Shoval & Shulruf,
2011). One of the ideals teaching reading comprehension is through cooperative
learning which intends to improve the learning output of students. Cooperative
learning refers to a learning model in which a teacher acts as a leader and a
facilitator in guiding students’ group work (Jacobs, Iddings, & McCafferty, 2006). Group work may simply raise active learning in classroom that creates interaction
among students as functional part in sharing their thoughts and feeling.
One of the ways to implement cooperative learning is through ‘One Stays
Rest Stray’ (OSRS) technique. OSRS technique is a cooperative learning model
which can be used to foster students’ reading comprehension ability to a text
(Kagan, 1992, as cited in Jacobs et al., 2006). This technique exploits instructional
process actively that involves movement activity of students so that the students
have an opportunity to develop and collect ideas, discuss, and figure out a text by
building teamwork (Jacobs et al., 2006). This technique is basically somewhat
similar to jigsaw technique in which students make base groups and spread to
other groups to get information. After that, the students return to base groups to
discuss the information obtained. The difference between the jigsaw and OSRS is
in the way students interact with each other. In jigsaw technique, group mates
share information with each other, while in OSRS technique, mates share with

Some previous studies on the use of OSRS technique have been
conducted. A study of the use of OSRS technique in reading skill for college
students was conducted by Surjosuseno (2011) who used an experimental method.
He revealed that students’ reading achievement increased after implementing OSRS technique in instructional process. The OSRS technique helped students
work on task, speak orally, recall previous knowledge, summarize the passage,
and comprehend the text well and happily.
There was also a study which was related to the use of OSRS, namely One
Stays Three Strays (OSTS). This study was conducted by Agust, Ngadiso, & Asib
(2012) in order to see the use of OSTS technique in teaching reading towards
students’ self actualization in learning by using an experimental method. The findings showed that the use of OSTS was significantly effective in teaching
reading to students who have high self actualization. OSTS is part of OSRS in
which the number of strayers consists of three students.
The two previous studies concerned the use of OSRS technique in
teaching reading comprehension in correlation with students’ self actualization in
senior high school and its role in increasing tertiary students’ achievement in reading skill. Unlike those previous studies, the present research focuses on
investigating the use of ‘One Stays Rest Stray’ (OSRS) technique in teaching reading comprehension of narrative text in eleventh grade of senior high school by

1.2 Research Questions
This study is designed to answer the following questions:
1. To what extent does ‘One Stays Rest Stray’ technique help students’ reading comprehension?
2. What are the students’ responses towards the use of ‘One Stays Rest
Stray’ technique in their learning?
1.3 Aims of the Study
Based on the background and the problems stated, this study aims to:
1. Investigate the extent to which the use of ‘One Stays Rest Stray’ technique helps students’ reading comprehension.
2. Examine students’ responses towards the use of ‘One Stays Rest
Stray’ technique in their learning.
1.4 Scope of the Study
The study is limited to two concerns. It focuses on investigating the
extent to which the use of ‘One Stays Rest Stray’ technique helps students’ reading comprehension and examining students’ responses towards the use of
‘One Stays Rest Stray’ technique in their learning.
1.5 Significance of Study
This study is expected to be significanttheoretically and practically.
Theoretically, this study is expected to enrich literature on using
cooperative learning specifically OSRS technique in English as foreign
language, especially in teaching reading comprehension of narrative text.
Practically, this study is expected to be another alternative way in
learning reading for students and also for readers who are interested in teaching
English especially teaching reading skill. For the students, they can collect
ideas attractively so the teacher triggers them to improve their reading ability
better. For those who are interested in teaching English, this study is expected

1.6 Research Methods.
This study employed qualitative case study. It aims to get in depth
understanding of phenomena occurred specifically in the use of OSRS technique
in teaching reading comprehension of narrative text. The understanding was then
investigated into proper description that was relevant to the case (Algozzine &
Hancock, 2006; Duff, 2008; Cohen, Monion, & Morrison, 2007). Besides, this
study also bounded on singular phenomena or single case (Algozzine &
Hancock, 2006; Duff, 2008).
In collecting data, this study used classroom observation, written
documents, and close and open- ended questionnaires. To analyze the data, the
classroom observation, written documents, and the questionnaires were
interpreted by qualitative method. Further explanation about the study method
will be presented in Chapter III.
1.7 Clarification of Terms
There are some terms which are needed to be clarified to avoid
misunderstanding and misconception as follows:
1.7.1 Reading
Reading is a receptive skill that focuses on understanding the message of a
text and become the major source of meaning- focused input (Nation, 2009).
1.7.2 Reading Comprehension
Reading comprehension is the process of constructing meaning by
coordinating a number of complex processes that includes word reading, word and
world knowledge, and fluency (Klinger, Vaughn, & Boardman, 2007).
1.7.3 Narrative text
Narrative text is one of types of text that deals with a story in which it can
be drawn into plots to see how the story tells and the problem of the story gets

of generic structure of narrative text are orientation, complication, and resolution
(Emilia, 2012).
1.7.4 ‘One Stays Rest Stray’(OSRS) technique
OSRS technique is a technique of cooperative learning model that involves
collaborative teaching in which students work together in a group and spread to
another group to get understanding of the subject explored. (Kagan, 1992, as cited
in Jacobs et al., 2006; Surjosuseno, 2011).

CHAPTER III
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
This chapter discusses the elaboration of methodology of the study which
attempts to answer the two questions related to the extent to which the technique
of „One Stays Rest Stray‟ (OSRS) helps students‟ reading comprehension and students‟ responses towards the use of OSRS technique in their learning.
It covers research design, research site and participant, data collection
including research instruments and data collection procedure, and data analysis.
3.1 Research Design
The research design used in this study is qualitative approach. The
approach was chosen since this study focused on analyzing and identifying a
social phenomenon of instructional process in detail (Cohen et al., 2007). The
phenomenon was specifically seen from the use of OSRS technique in teaching
reading comprehension of narrative text.
This study has a characteristic to use case study research. There were
several reasons to employ case study. First, this study attempted to investigate
contemporary phenomenon that what happened in educational context
(Algozzine& Hancock, 2006; Duff, 2008). Second, this study concerned on vivid
description of an event that is relevant to the case (Hitchock& Hughes, 1995, as
cited in Cohen et al., 2007). Third, this study focused on single case or small case
with particularly definable boundary system (e.g activity, process, event, or

3.2 Research Site and Participants
This study was conducted at one of public senior high schools in Bandung,
West Java, Indonesia. The site was selected since it gave an easy access to that
school and it provided good facilities to support the instructional process.
The participants were an English teacher and 28 students of grade XI
Science 9. The teacher was chosen because she was familiar with the use of
cooperative learning in classroom, while the students were chosen because they
were recommended by the school.
3.3 Data Collection
The data collection techniques used in this study was classroom
observation, written documents, and questionnaire. The use of different
techniques is known as triangulation technique which is purposed to examine
validity and credibility of data in qualitative study so that the data gained will be
relatively consistent (Alwasilah, 2009; Sugiyono, 2011). Further explanation is
described below.
3.3.1 Classroom Observation
Observation was conducted to collect data of ongoing activities in
classroom. The data were gained through observing each conscious process
occurred in classroom. Observation gives sensitive data which deals with context
or human behavior and demonstrate the data validity of verbal/ non verbal
behavior (Moyles, 2002, as cited in Cohen et al., 2007).
The observations were conducted from April 9 to April 30 2013. The type
of participants applied in this study was a complete observer or non participant
observation which is to make the observation more effective (Fraenkel, Hyun
Noviga Darma, 2014
THE USE OF ‘ONE STAYS REST STRAY’ TECHNIQUE IN TEACHING READING COMPREHENSION OF
NARRATIVE TEXT
Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia | repository.upi.edu | perpustakaan.upi.edu 29
interaction among the teacher and students. To make the data of observation valid
and reliable, the data were gained from videotaping. Videotaping was chosen to
give an ease of collecting every activity in classroom in detail and supported by
field notes. (Duff, 2008).
3.3.2 Written Documents
As suggested by Guba and Lincoln (1981, cited in Alwasilah, 2009;
Algozzine & Hancock, 2006), document is a written data that give description and
information related to research questions naturally. The written documents were
then used to support data from observation. The data of written documents were
obtained in form of lesson plans which were seen from learning activities in
classroom and students‟ worksheets. To collect the data, the data were examined
and identified to answer research questions in Chapter I. The detail of those
documents can be seen in Appendix.
3.3.3 Questionnaire
The aim of using questionnaire was to support the data gathered from
classroom observation. It was also to elicit the students‟ responses towards the use
of OSRS technique in teaching reading of narrative text in classroom. The
responses of respondent basically were used to find out about their point of view
subjectively about a particular target (Dornyei, 2010).
The type of questionnaire used was close and open- ended questionnaire.
Close- ended questions allowed respondents to select the answer from each of the
questions definitely easily. The close- ended questions are in multiple choices,
yes- no questions, constant cum, and rating scales form that give respondents to
complete and to code it quickly straightforwardly by encircling and ticking one of
Noviga Darma, 2014
THE USE OF ‘ONE STAYS REST STRAY’ TECHNIQUE IN TEACHING READING COMPREHENSION OF
NARRATIVE TEXT
Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia | repository.upi.edu | perpustakaan.upi.edu 30
this study, the close- ended questions were implied by answering “yes” and “no”
in each question of the questionnaire.
Open- ended questions were needed to get simple reason as possible
answer. The open responses produce possible answer in form of graphic
examples, illustrative quotes, and can also lead to identify issues not previously
anticipated (Dornyei, 2010). In some cases, there may be good reason actually for
asking some questions both in open and closed form (Oppenheim, 1992, as cited
in Dornyei, 2010). For this study, both of close and open- ended questions were
collaborated to give ease of collecting data.
The distribution of the questionnaire was conducted on April, 30 2013.
The categories of questions in the questionnaire were divided into two parts
consisting of five positive statements. The categories of questions were adjusted
to answer the research questions of this study. The categories of the questions had
been made in the framework below.

3.4 Data Analysis
The methods used in analyzing data in this study were qualitative methods.
The qualitative data were analyzed from classroom observation, written document
and questionnaire in which the data were interpreted in form descriptive
explanation.
All the data were analyzed by using theories of aspects of reading
comprehension (Morsy, Kieffer, & Snow, 2010), supported the theories from
Moreillon (2007), Westwood (2008), Burns et al. (2005), Klingner et al. (2007),
Rice (2013), and Ueta (2005). In addition, the data were also analyzed based on
the theories of cooperative learning (Jacobs et al., 2006; Jolliffe, 2007; McDonell,
1992; Shoval & Shulruf, 2011) and the theories of OSRS technique (Jacobs et al.,
2006; Kagan, 2009; Surjosuseno, 2011; Agust et al., 2012; Felder & Brent, 2007).
After collecting the data from classroom observation, the data from videos
which consisted of the verbal and non verbal interaction were transcribed. Then,
the data were coded in categorization that was adjusted with the research
questions in Chapter I. The coding was aimed at narrowing form of descriptions
into a few themes (Cresswell, 2008).
The data from written documents were read firstly and then selected to be
analyzed based on the research questions. For the data of questionnaire consisted
of close and open- ended questions, those were interpreted and analyzed through
different ways. The answers of the data in close- ended questions were analyzed
by using formula of percentage as follow:
(Riduwan, 2009, in Gupitasari, 2013)

Note:
P = percentage
fo = frequency observed
n = number of sample
Meanwhile, the answers of the data in open- ended questions were
analyzed by using the following procedures (Dornyei, 2003): a) Clarifying the
questions. b) Clarifying sentence completion task. c) Clarifying short- answer questions. d) Analyzing students‟ responses by marking any distinct content, element, substantive statements or key points. e) Forming students‟ responses into broader categories to compare with another response. f) Drawing the conclusion.
By using triangulation technique in collecting data, the data were analyzed
by cross- checking in order to ensure whether the data were consistent or not. The

CHAPTER V
CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
This chapter presents conclusion and suggestions. The conclusion of the
research is a brief description that is based on the findings and discussion of the
research, while suggestions consist of recommendations to the teacher and further
research.
5.1 Conclusions
This research focuses on the use of ‘One Stays Rest Stray’ (OSRS)
technique in teaching reading comprehension of Narrative text. The purposes of
this study are to investigate the extent to which the use of OSRS technique helps
students’ reading comprehension and to examine students’ responses towards the learning.
Based on the findings, this study concludes that OSRS technique helped
students’ reading comprehension which was seen from aspects of reading comprehension namely background knowledge, vocabulary knowledge, reading
fluency, and comprehension strategies. As learning process, the students could
activate their background knowledge to connect to the text, find out difficult
words in reading, improve students’ reading fluency, and cover comprehension
strategies such as activating background knowledge, questioning among the
teacher and students, making predicting and inferences, and determining main
ideas. Therefore, they could engage in reading actively and comprehend the
Narrative text better and easier.
OSRS technique also gives positive attitudes of students. The data showed
that students enjoyed participating in reading activities. They are more

5.2 Suggestions
After finishing the finding, discussion, and conclusions of this research,
there are some recommendations regarding on the use of OSRS technique in
teaching reading comprehension as follows.
In teaching reading by using OSRS technique, the teachers are suggested
to know the concept of OSRS technique itself and be well prepared before
conducting instructional process. Then, the teachers should pay attention to each
activity of students because OSRS involves students’ interaction more in
classroom until the activity can be taken place effectively. Moreover, the teachers
should also pay attention to the use of time allocation in classroom during
teaching learning process.
Next, it can be recommended for other researchers who want to investigate
OSRS technique as future research. The research can investigate OSRS technique
to be implemented in learning different kinds of texts. Besides, the researchers can
use OSRS technique in different grade for instance elementary school or junior
