THE EFFECT OF USING QUESTIONING THE AUTHOR (QtA) APPROACH TOWARD STUDENTS’ ABILITY IN READING COMPREHENSION AT JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL 1 TAMBANG OF KAMPAR REGENCY
No full textThe main focus of the research is to find out whether there is a significant
effect of using Questioning the Author (QtA) Approach toward Students’ Ability
in Reading Comprehension at the Junior High School 1 Tambang or not. In the
research, the type of the research was quasi-experimental research. The researcher
used nonrandomized control group pretest-posttest design. The researcher used
two classes as sample which a consisted of 50 students. The first class was
experimental group and the second was control group. Experimental class was
taught by using Questioning the Author (QtA) Approach and control class was
taught by using conventional strategy. The technique of data collecting was
observation and test. Observation was used in order to collect the data of using
Questioning the Author (QtA) Approach and the test was used in order to collect
the data of students’ ability in reading comprehension at Junior High School 1
Tambang. The technique of data analysis used T-test formula in order to find out
the difference of students’ mean score between experimental class and control
class by using SPSS 16 version. The students’ score was compared with T-table
which considered with degree of freedom (df).
Based on the data analysis, the researcher concluded that there was a
significant effect of using Questioning the Author (QtA) Approach towards
students’ ability in reading comprehension at Junior High School 1 Tambang
with consideration to = 12.000 is higher than T-table either in significant 5 %; =
2.01 or in significant 1 % = 2.68. It means that Ha is accepted and Ho is rejected.
So, it can be concluded that there is significant difference between students’
reading comprehension taught by using Questioning the Author (QtA) Approach
and control class taught by using conventional strategy at Junior High School 1
Tambang. In other words, there was a significant effect of using Questioning the
Author (QtA) Approach toward Students’ Ability in Reading Comprehension at
Junior High School 1 Tambang
Presidentide Lennart Meri ja Arnold Rüütli representatsioon Eesti ja Soome trükimeedias riigivisiitide kajastamisel Soome
No full textThe goal of this Bachelor’s Degree Thesis was to analyse the representation of President
Lennart Meri and President Arnold Rüütel in the Estonian and Finnish printed mass media in
the course of reporting on their state visits to Finland. The conducted content analysis covered
four Estonian weekly and daily newspapers and three Finnish weekly newspapers, totalling 50
articles. An additional analysis was carried out of articles published immediately after the
presidential elections (the sample has 69 articles) for the purpose of mapping out the
representation of the presidents in the same channels after the presidential elections and
compare it to that established during state visits.
When Lennart Meri was elected President, the domestic media was discreet in reflecting the
news. But when Arnold Rüütel was elected President, the media reacted to the event in an
extremely active manner. Here the author would like to point out that several Estonian
newspapers had special presidential election columns. The opposite was true of the state visits
– that made to Finland by Lennart Meri was reflected in a more active manner than the state
visit of Arnold Rüütel. The latter was never front page news in Estonian newspapers.
The Finnish printed media reflected the presidential election results and the state visits in a
relatively similar manner – no such remarkable differences can be noted as the ones observed
in the Estonian printed media. In both cases, the dedicated positive attitude of the Finnish
media toward Lennart Meri should be stressed.
The topics reflected during the state visit of the President in 1995 differ somewhat from those
discussed in 2001 as certain changes took place during those six years in Estonia and Finland,
as well in the world as a whole. The most remarkable change can be observed in the topic
columns on “culture and history.” Namely, in 1995 such topics had been of vital importance
in the printed media of both countries, while in 2001 their importance receded almost to zero.
A closer examination of the newspaper articles indicates that during the state visit of 1995 the
stress was more on the history of Estonia and Finland as two kindred nations, the first
President of Estonia and the period that had passed since his visit. Also, the schedule for
Lennart Meri contained more cultural events than the state visit of 2001. It is interesting to
observe that in 2001 the Estonian and Finnish media displayed more unity in the topics reflected than they had in 1995. The active attitude of the Estonian media was noteworthy
regarding the topic of medals – surprisingly, during both state visits.
When comparing media reflections in the two countries, one difference between the domestic
and foreign newspapers is the presence or lack of accusatory and ironic stories. During neither
of the visits did the Finnish printed media have negative-attitude stories related to the visit of
our President.
The optimistic and satisfied Finnish attitude of 1995 changed into a neutral one in 2001, with
no more impassionate stories, although the relations between the two countries remained
excellent. Nor could such impassionate stories be found in the Estonian printed media in 2001
– here the state visit reflection also became more diplomatic.
The greatest difference in the Estonian and Finnish media was that of quoting the Presidents.
The Finnish printed media’s quotations of the Presidents during the two state visits total 128
sentences in the analysed articles. The domestic media deemed it necessary to quote the
Presidents during the same period with only 53 sentences.
The attitude toward the President during the corresponding state visit was generally the same
both in Estonia and Finland. The President as the representative of the state and
simultaneously an exciting personality – this was the picture of Lennart Meri in the media of
both countries. President Meri was represented in his presidential institutional capacity and as
a personality in the Estonian and Finnish media. On the contrary, the picture of President
Arnold Rüütel during his state visit was discreet. President Rüütel in the Finnish media is
primarily the President of Estonia, without an outstanding personality, and the attention given
to him cannot be compared to the attention enjoyed by President Meri. The Estonian media
never praises Rüütel by quoting an opinion leader – he is only praised for being in the right
place at the right time.http://tartu.ester.ee/record=b1738718~S1*es
