Abstract

Reading is the ability to extract meaning from written text. When students learn to read, they should be able to comprehend the text during reading process. Reading difficulties become most apparent when the students are unable to grasp the meaning from a text. They find it hard to get main idea, supporting details, and even deciding the schematic structure of the text. This is because the students do not know specific technique that can guide them to understanding the text and predicting the meaning. As the effort to improve students’ reading comprehension, teacher should be more creative and make learning process more interesting and more favored by learners. Therefore, the writer conducts a study about “Teaching Reading comprehension of Narrative Text by Using Mind Mapping Technique”. The purposes of this study are to find out the effectiveness of mind mapping technique toward students’ reading comprehension and to know the obstacle in applying mind mapping technique. This research was a pre experimental research which used one class as an experimental class. The sample of this study was class VIII-b of SMP Inshafuddin Banda Aceh. The techniques used in obtaining the data were test (pre-test and post-test) and questionnaire. The mean scores of the students in pre-test was 50, while in post-test the score increased to 72. It can be concluded that mind mapping technique was effective to improve students’ reading comprehension. Then, based on the analysis of questionnaires, most of students gave positive responses on using mind mapping technique while there are some of them who gave negative responses. However there are some of them who still find it difficult to apply mind mapping, but some others find it easy and enjoy applying the technique. By applying mind mapping technique they became more creative.Finally, the writer concludes that mind mapping technique is one of the techniques that can be used in order to improve students’ reading comprehension.
