This research aimed to enhance students' reading comprehension of narrative texts through the implementation of the Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition (CIRC) learning model. This research used a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design conducted in two cycles, each consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. The research subjects were 32 students of class VIII-1 at SMP Negeri 7 Tarakan in the 2024/2025 academic year. The data were collected through reading comprehension tests and observation sheets of teacher and students' activities. The results showed an improvement in students' reading comprehension from Cycle I to Cycle II. In Cycle I, only 37% of students achieved the Learning Objective Achievement Criteria (KKTP) score of 74, which increased to 62% in Cycle II. Student activity increased from 92% to 96%, and teacher performance improved from 91% to 96%. The increase in student activity reflected higher engagement in key CIRC activities, including reading, group discussion, and writing. Teacher performance also improved as the CIRC steps were implemented more effectively, supporting students' engagement in reading activities. Thus, the CIRC model is effective in enhancing students' reading comprehension of narrative texts.

This study investigates the effect of Reciprocal Teaching on the reading comprehension of eighth-grade students at SMPN 10 Tarakan, focusing on narrative texts. Employing a pre-experimental design, the study involved 25 students from class VIII-4 as the sample. Data were obtained using multiple-choice reading comprehension tests administered as a pretest and a posttest. The findings demonstrate a meaningful improvement in students' performance, with the mean score increasing from 31.60 in the pretest to 56.20 in the posttest. The Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test revealed a significance value of 0.000 (p 0.05), indicating a statistically significant difference between pretest and posttest scores. In addition, the Normalized Gain (N-Gain) score was 0.35, which falls within the moderate category. These results suggest that Reciprocal Teaching contributes to improving students' reading comprehension through its four instructional steps predicting, questioning, clarifying, and summarizing-which encourage learners to engage actively with texts through collaborative discussion. In practice, this approach supported students in addressing vocabulary-related difficulties and strengthening inferential comprehension. The study implies that Reciprocal Teaching can enhance students' independence in monitoring and regulating their understanding, offering practical value for teachers in addressing reading challenges and providing a reference for future research on literacy-focused interventions.

This research was conducted to (1) identify and describe the types of errors in narrative text made by the fourth semester students majoring in English education at the Borneo Tarakan University (UBT); (2) find out the frequency of types of the errors; (3) identify and describe the sources of the errors. The subjects of this study were 29 third semester students. Data were collected by asking the students to write narrative text with the given topics. To get information about possible causes of the errors, 6 students were interviewed. The results showed that there were totally 140 errors found in students’ writings which were analyzed using Surface Strategy Taxonomy. They consisted of 55 omission errors, 62 addition errors, 17 formation errors, and 6 placement errors. Meanwhile, based on the comparative analysis taxonomy, 77 errors were caused by developmental factor, 25 errors by interlingual factor, 29 errors by ambiguous factor, and 9 errors by other factors. In conclusion, the students’ grammatical errors were due to their lack of grammar understanding and the influence of indonesian structure in the process of learning English.
