This study, utilizing MindMeister, aims to examine the impact of using the mind mapping technique on the ability of 7th-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Parbuluan to retell the content of a narrative text they have read. The research population consisted of 172 7th-grade students, with a sample size of 56 students divided into two groups: a control class and an experimental class, each comprising 28 students. The research employed a quantitative method with a true experimental design. The research instrument was a performance test, and the data were analyzed using a t-test. Based on the results, the average score of students’ ability to narrate the content of a narrative text using the close reading technique was 62.21, with a standard deviation of 6.33, which falls into the “poor” category. Meanwhile, the students’ ability to retell the narrative text using the mind mapping technique with the assistance of MindMeister was 80.07, categorized as “good,” with a standard deviation of 5.48. The data indicated an improvement in the average scores between the control class, which used the intensive reading technique, and the experimental class, which applied the mind mapping technique. Through hypothesis testing, it was found that Thitung > Ttabel, thus rejecting H0 and accepting H1. This means that the use of the mind mapping technique with the help of MindMeister positively influences the ability of 7th-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Parbuluan to retell narrative texts.

This study aims to examine the effect of the use of the Kahoot application in teaching materials for reading numerical texts on students' understanding and ability to solve problems related to the material. The research design used was an experiment with a quantitative approach, with a pre-test post-test control group model. The research sample consisted of two classes of junior high school grade VII students, each of which was given different treatment, namely the use of the Kahoot application in the experimental group and the conventional method in the control group. The results showed that the use of the Kahoot app could improve students' understanding of social arithmetic material, with a significant increase in scores in the experimental group (25 points) compared to the control group (8 points). In addition, the Kahoot application has also been shown to increase student motivation and participation in learning, with the majority of students feeling more interested and motivated to learn actively and collaboratively. These findings suggest that the use of the Kahoot app can be an effective tool for improving learning outcomes and student engagement in math learning.

Reading comprehension skills are a major focus in Indonesian language learning, especially in grade IX, as narrative comprehension helps students relate information in a broader context. The purpose of this study is to provide comprehensive guidelines for the development of more effective Indonesian learning materials and to strengthen the reading comprehension skills of grade IX students. This study evaluates the readability using Fry's Graph Formula and the effectiveness of sentences in narrative texts as teaching materials for reading comprehension in grade IX Indonesian literacy narrative books. By using the Fry's Graph Formula analysis method, this research helps to adapt the text to the intended grade level. Of the six narrative texts analyzed, there are three that have good readability, two that have poor readability, and one that has poor readability. In addition, this study analyzed sentence ineffectiveness. Sentence ineffectiveness can be caused by various reasons, such as word inefficiency, inaccurate use of conjunctions, inaccuracy in word usage, inaccurate use of punctuation, and meaninglessness.

This study investigates the effect of the Team Word-Webbing technique on reading comprehension among tenth-grade students at MAN Koto Baru, Dharmasraya. Reading comprehension is critical for language acquisition and academic success, as it encompasses the ability to extract and interpret meaning from text. Despite its importance, many students struggle with reading comprehension due to various factors including limited vocabulary and insufficient engagement. To address these issues, the study employed a quantitative experimental design, using a quasi-experimental approach with an experimental group and a control group. The research involved a pre-test and post-test assessment to measure reading comprehension levels before and after the implementation of the Team Word-Webbing technique. The experimental group was taught using this technique, which involves organizing ideas visually to enhance understanding, while the control group received traditional instruction. The sample consisted of two classes selected through purposive sampling, with data analyzed using t-tests to compare outcomes. Results indicated that the Team Word-Webbing technique significantly improved reading comprehension compared to conventional methods. The experimental group demonstrated higher post-test scores, with statistical analysis revealing a significant difference (p < 0.05). This suggests that Team Word-Webbing enhances students' ability to understand and retain reading material by facilitating better organization of ideas and active engagement. In conclusion, the study supports the effectiveness of Team Word-Webbing as an instructional strategy to improve reading comprehension. This technique not only aids in comprehension but also promotes active learning and student interaction, making it a valuable tool for educators aiming to enhance reading skills in the classroom.

The purpose is to develop the students of class XI-TFLM 2 of SMK Negeri 5 Surabaya in understanding the structure of news text by using SQ3R technique. The main problem identified is that students are unable to recognize the important elements of news text, such as title, introduction, news content, and conclusion. This research method includes two action cycles using the SQ3R strategy and consists of the following steps: research, questioning, reading, reciting, and reviewing. In Cycle I, this strategy was introduced to improve students' understanding of news text structure, resulting in an increase in students' average score from 55.82 points in the pre-action to 71.06 points. Based on the reflection of Cycle I, it was found that students still had difficulty distinguishing and analyzing the elements of news structure. In the second cycle, they strengthened the SQ3R strategy through group discussions and extensive reading, so that their average score increased to 80.76. These results show that the SQ3R strategy is effective in improving students' news text analysis skills. The improvement of students' ability in analyzing the structure of news texts is reflected in the better results in cycle II, showing the potential of this method as an effective approach in Indonesian language learning. This study recommends a more comprehensive application of the SQ3R strategy to improve news text analysis skills in secondary education.
