B. Research Problems
1. Is effective Herringbone Technique in teaching reading
comprehension to the eight grade students of SMPN 13 Pontianak in
academic years 2019/2020 ?
2. How significant is the effectiveness of using Herringbone Technique
in teaching reading comprehension to the eight grade students of
SMPN 13 Pontianak in academic years 2019/2020
C. Research Purpose

Improve Students’ Reading Comprehension at Eighth Grade Students
of SMPN 13 Pontianak in academic years 2019/2020
2. To find out how significant is the effectiveness of using Herringbone
Technique in teaching reading comprehension to the eight grade students

D. Significances of Study
There are two significances of this writing might expected from
this study, they are as follow:
1. The Theoritical Significance
a. The result of this study expected could be a reference for the
English students to do similar research or another research.
b. The result of this study expected could use additional
information for English Departement and as knowledge in
improving English education.
2. Terminology
To ovoid any misconception or misinterpretation of term in this
reesarch, some of terms will be explained roastbelow:
a. Reading Comprehension the students’ ability to determine the
c. Narative text is a kind of text to retell the story that past tense.
F. Research Hypothesis
In order to find the answers to the research question, the researcher
needs to create the research hypotheses. A hypothesis is often described as
an attempt by the researcher to explain the phenomenon of interest.
According to Lodico et al (2010: 10), state that hypothesis is a tentative
explanation that can be tested by collecting data. Thus a null hypothesis
represents all other possibilities. According to Creswell (2012: 624) defined
null hypothesis as follows “make predictions that there will be no
statistically significant difference between the independent variable and the
dependent variable.” The null hypothesis is generally symbolized as H0 and
the alternative hypothesis as Ha. The hypothesis of this research can be
stated as follow:
1. Alternative Hypothesis (Ha)
G. Research Methodology
1. Research design
c. Sampling
A1 A2
X1 = × 100 X2 = × 100
N N
Where:
X1 = Student’s score pre-test
X2 = Student’s score post-test
A1 = Number of correct items pre-test
A2 = Number of correct items post-test
N = Total number of scoring item pre-test and post-test
Where:
̅ = 𝑋̅2 - 𝑋̅1
𝐷
Wherer:
̅
𝐷 : Students’ interval score of pre-test and post-test
4. Standard Deviation.
Where :
S = Standard deviation
∑ 𝐷2 = Sum of the squares of each score
(∑ 𝐷 2 ) = Sum of the scores squared
𝑁 = The number of elements in a sample
5. T-test
̅
𝐷
𝑡=
2
∑ 𝐷 2 − (∑ 𝐷)
√ 𝑁
𝑁(𝑁 − 1)
Where:
t = t ratio
̅
𝐷 = average difference
6. Testing Hypotheses
strategy effective or not, the researcher would use the p-value of t-test. If
the value of (p) < α (0,05) it means that PORPE strategy is effective and
Ho is rejected. If the value of (p) > α (0,05) it means that PORPE strtegy is
In simply way:
X̅ 𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑡𝑡𝑒𝑠𝑡 −X
̅ 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑡𝑒𝑠𝑡
ES = 𝑆𝐷𝑤𝑒𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡𝑒𝑑
Where:
ES = Effect size
Table 1.4
Effect Size
1. Administration
Last stage of the research is analysing the data collected from both
pre-test and post-test using formulas in this chapter.
