Abstract

This research is focused about the effect of using cooperative learning numbered heads together to students’ reading comprehension at grade VIII MTsN 1 Model Padangsidimpuan. The problem of this research are students’ vocabulary mastery is still low, different types of students, students’ ability in understanding the text is still low, and traditional method that still often used by the teacher. Most of the students still get low grade. Meanwhile, the standard of English competency in this school is 80. The aim of this research is to examine the students’ reading comprehension by using NHT (Numbered Heads Together) at Grade VIII MTsN 1 Model Padangsidimpuan. This research is an experimental research. The population of this research is the students nine classes at grade VIII MTsN 1 Model Padangsidimpuan. Then, the sample is divided into two class. The first class consist of 42 students as the experimental class, while the second class consist of 42 students as the control class. To collect the data, researcher used test for measuring students’ reading comprehension. To analyze the data, the researcher used t-test. Data analysis of the post-test showed that score of the students in the experimental class is significantly higher than score of the students in control class at the level of significance 5% with degree of freedom (n1 + n2 2) = 82. Mean score is get in experimental class is 83.7. While, mean score is get in control class is 70.9. The tcount is 5093, while the ttable is 2.000. Therefore, the hypotheses is accepted. So, there is the significant effect of using the Cooperative Learning Numbered Heads Together to Students Reading Comprehensin at Grade VIII MTsN 1 Model Padangsidimpuan.
