Effect Of Jigsaw Cooperative Learning Model On Reading Ability Of 1st Graders SDN Jrebeng Kidul, Probolinggo City

Abstract

Reading is a basic skill that provides information, creativity, and imagination. The problem of this study is that the first graders are not yet able to read. To overcome this problem, researchers are using the Jigsaw collaborative learning model to improve students' reading skills. The aim of this study was to evaluate the positive/significant impact of this model on the reading ability of first graders in first grade. The research method used in this study is an experimental study with Quasi-Experimental-Control-Group Design (QED) consisting of two groups: experimental group (jigsaw group) and control group (conventional group). The sample size was 37 students, 20 students in the experimental group and 17 students in the control group. Data is collected through observation, testing and documentation. The results show that the Jigsaw cooperative learning model has a large and positive impact on students' reading skills. The t/hypothesis test confirmed the alternative hypothesis (Significance <0.001 <0.05). The data before and after the test are normally and uniformly distributed.
