The Effectiveness of Extensive Reading on Students’ Reading

Comprehension Achievement as Observed from

Students’ Motivation

Based on the research problem and statistical computation in data analysis, there were four conclusions that could be made/drawn. First, there was difference in students’ reading comprehension achievement between students who are given additional extensive reading activity and those who are not given additional extensive reading activity. Second, there was no difference in students’ reading comprehension achievement of students with intrinsic motivation under extensive reading activity and students with intrinsic motivation under conventional way. Third, there was no difference in students’ reading comprehension achievement of students with extrinsic motivation under extensive reading activity and students with extrinsic motivation under conventional way. Fourth, there was no interaction between extensive reading activity and students’ motivation. The English Study Program can make special lecture for extensive reading for students to enhance their reading skills and reading habit. Motivation in reading is very important. Motivation can encourage students’ reading habit and also can support students’ to read a number of reading materials.
