Students' Perceptions of Collaborative Strategic Reading on EFL learners
Abstract
Reading is one of the important aspects in teaching and learning processes, it is also important for the students to work together in pairs or in groups in order to build strong communication and to achieve mutual goals, especially in reading lessons. This paper examined the students’ perception of collaborative strategic reading stages during offline learning activity 2019. The researcher used a narrative inquiry as its research design and the researcher also collected the data using an in-depth interview with three undergraduate students from one of public universities in Central Java. The result of this research was that collaborative strategic reading activity is fun and less stressful for the students, and that every stage of the collaborative strategic reading activity brought an advantage for the students. In the preview stage the text students learn and guess the idea about what they are going to learn. The click and clunk helped the students with their understanding of the text; The “get the gist” helped them to find the most important information from the passage, while the “wrap-up” helped the students to summarize the text and answer the question given by the lecturer.
