ABSTRACT
Annisa, Imro Atul. 2023. The Implementation of Group Discussion Method to Teach Reading Comprehension at MAN 1 Ponorogo Thesis, English Education Department, Faculty of Tarbiyah and Teacher Training, State Islamic Institute of Ponorogo. Advisor Fenty Andriani, M.Pd.
Key Word: Group Discussion Method, Reading Comprehension
Reading is a life-long skill that can be practiced not only at school but also in one's life. Reading activities are essentially more than just reciting written symbols; more than that, the reader must understand the message or information contained in the text. Reading is a basic language ability in the life of every human being. In an attempt to improve students' reading comprehension, it is necessary to implement the appropriate learning method, one of which is the group discussion method. The group discussion method is a learning process that involves conducting small group discussions that aim to give students the skills to cooperate in solving problems related to subject matter and problems faced in everyday life. In the application of the group discussion method, there are steps that must be considered by the teacher. This study describes the application of the group discussion method to teach English reading comprehension in class XI, Religion 2 MAN 1 Ponorogo.
The aims of this research are: 1) to describe how the teacher implements the group discussion method to teach reading comprehension; and 2) to identify students' responses toward the implementation of the group discussion method in reading comprehension. 3) To identify teachers' perceptions toward the implementation of the group discussion method in teaching reading comprehension.
This research was designed using a descriptive-qualitative method. The subjects of this study were 20 students in class XI (Religion 2, MAN 1, Ponorogo). Data collection in this study was carried out through observation, questionnaires, and interviews.
The results of this study show that the application of the group discussion method is carried out through several stages, namely the preparation stage, the implementation stage, and the follow-up stage of the discussion. In the application of the group discussion method, students are more active in arguing, and the teacher acts as a facilitator during the discussion process. Students feel happy if English learning is done in the form of group discussion. The group discussion method makes students feel comfortable during the learning process, but in the application of the group discussion method, there is one group member who tends to dominate the discussion.
