Pre-tests and post-tests were used to administer the tests to the students. The test was in multiple choice. The instruments were developed using the materials taught to eighth graders over the course of 1st semesters.
The result is t: -7.155 and the standard deviation is 9.712 Sig. value is 0,000 means that 0,000 was lower than 0.05. It means that the SQ3R method significantly affect on students reading comprehension. It shows that there was a significant difference in the experimental and control groups' reading comprehension following treatment with the SQ3R approach as opposed to treatment without the method; the significance level is 0.000. So by using SQ3R method could assist the students acquired better score in reading comprehension and level of significance 0.000, and degrees of freedom were 55, the study's findings suggest that there was a significant difference between the students who were taught reading recount using the SQ3R technique and the students who were taught by the conventional method.
In conclusion, using the SQ3R approach to teach reading was extremely beneficial.
