The previous table shows that the
score of experimental
class Lo = 1.83< Lt = 11.070 with n = 26 and control
class Lo = 0.34< Lt = 11.070 with n = 26, and real level
The coefficient of Fcount= 0.84was compared with Ftable. Where
Ftable was determined at real α 0.05, and the different numerator dk
= N-1 = 26-1 = 25 and denominator dk N-1 = 26-1 = 25. So, by using the list of
critical value at F distribution is got F0.05
=4.28. It showed that Fcount0.84<Ftable4.28. So, the researcher concluded that
the variant from the data of the students’ reading comprehension in narrative
text at grade Xof SMANegeri8 Padangsidimpuan in
experimental and control class was homogenous. The calculation can be seen on
the appendix 18.
2. Hypothesis Test
After
calculating the data of post-test, researcher has found that post-test result
of experimental
and control class is normal and homogenous. The
data would be analyzed to prove the hypothesis. It used formula of t-test.
Hypothesis of the research was “peer tutoring has significant effect on students’ reading
comprehension in narrative text at
gradeX ofSMANegeri8 Padangsidimpuan”. The
calculation can be seen on the appendix 19
and 20.
The result of t-test was as follow:

The test hypothesis have two criteria. First, if tcount<ttable, H0 is accepted. Second, tcount>ttable, Ha
is accepted. Based on researcher calculation in pre test, researcher found
that tcount -2.92 while ttable 2.021with opportunity (1 –α ) = 1 - 5% =
95% and dk = n1 + n2 – 2 = 26 + 26 – 2 = 50. Cause tcount<ttable(-0.29<2.021), it means that hypothesis Ha
was rejected and H0 was accepted. So, in pre test, the two classes were same. There
is no difference in the both classes. But,
in post test, researcher found that tcount2.28while ttable 2.021 with opportunity (1
–α ) = 1
- 5% = 95% and dk = n1 + n2 – 2 = 26 + 26 – 2 = 50.
Cause tcount>ttable (2.28> 2.021), it means that
hypothesis Ha was accepted and H0 was rejected. The calculation can be seen on the appendix 20. In this case, the mean
score of experimental class by using peer tutoringstrategywas 82.12 and mean score of
control class was 75.76 that was taught by using lecturer strategy. So,
there was the significant effect of using peer tutoring strategy on students’ reading
comprehension in narrative text at
grade XSMA
Negeri 8 Padangsidimpuan.
C. Discussion
Researcher
discussed result of this research and compared with the theory and the related
findings that have been stated by the researcher. First, Related to the theory from Densereau
stated that Peer tutoring has been used with college students to develop
higher-order skills such as reading comprehension.[1] L.
S. Fuchs Fuchs also said the peer tutoring strategy has been well validated for
promoting the development of low-level skills, such as spelling, math and
reading.[2]
Then, Anita Lie said that teaching by peers (peer tutoring) was more effective
than teaching by teachers, this is due to the background of the student
experience that is similar to one another than with the schemata teachers. It means that learning process does
not have come from the teacher to students, but can also from students to other
students.
Second, based on
related findings: Yanuar Irakas Prihatno has done
research.[3]
He found that students’ scores mean of the pretest was 66.26, whose the highest
and lowest score in turn were 88, and 32, in the post-test mean score was 78.5 having
85 as the biggest, and 55 as the smallest score. It indicated that the
students’ scores improved during the implementation of peer tutoring.
Then,
Dika Prima Nugraha Putra also has done research.[4]
The result of the research had shown that Peer Tutoring could be an effective
technique to improve the students’ reading comprehension. This conclusion came
from the analysis of the test result. He found that students’ scores mean of the pre-test was 47.26,
whose the highest and lowest score in turn were 70, and 35, in the post-test having
mean score was 77.41 and having 85 as the biggest, and 55 as the smallest
score.
The last, Besty Maghfiroh has also done
research.[5]
The result of the research had shown that Peer Tutoring could be an effective
method to increase the students’ interest and matematika study result. This
conclusion came from the analysis of the test result. He found that students’ scores mean
of the pre-test was 61.83, in the post-test having mean score was 77.30.
The research
result and the theory have proven that this strategy
is good where the students were so enthusiastic to follow the lesson. This proofs show that peer
tutoringis suitable to be applied in teaching reading comprehension. So, peer tutoring strategy has given the effect to the research that has been done
by the researcher or the other researcher who mentioned in related findings.
D. Limitation of the Research
The research was limited in some
situations. It was the problems in the class that appeared during doing the
research, but the researcher couldn’t hold or improve those things. The
limitation of the research was as follow:
1. The researcher was not sure whether all
of students in the experimental class and control class did the test honestly.
There was a possibility that some of them answered the test by copying or
imitating their friends’
answer.
2. The students were noisy while in learning process. They
were not concentrating in following the learning process. Some of them talked
to their friends and some of them did something outside the teacher’s rule. Of
course it made them cannot get the teacher’s explanation well and gave the impact
to the post-test answer.
3. It was also a possibility that some of
students were not too serious in answering the pre-test and post-test. It may caused by the test, because they knew before that the test would not influence their score in the
school. It made them answer the test without
thinking hard and the answer of the test was not pure because they did not do
it seriously.
