CHAPTER IV
FINDINGS
A. The Implementation of Mind Mapping Technique in Teaching Reading
Comprehension
This is a classroom action research on the use of mind mapping
technique to improve students’ comprehension on narrative text. Its aims are
to describe the use of Mind Mapping Technique in teaching Reading
Comprehension and to describe students’ achievement in Reading
Comprehension after taught by using mind mapping technique. There were
three cycles, and there was also pre- cycle to get students base score in
reading comprehension and post-cycle to be compared with pre-cycle after
taught by using mind mapping technique. Each activity will be explained as
follows:
1. Pre – Cycle
This activity was done on Sunday April 19th
, 2009. In this first
stage, the teacher was used conventional way in teaching reading
comprehension (conventional method) this is done to know students’
basic score of reading comprehension when taught using Non – mind
mapping technique.
In this activity, the teacher was doing teaching learning process as
usual, the teacher learning process began with reading by teacher loudly.
But not all the students paid attention to the teacher. There were only
some students active to ask questions to teacher during the teaching
learning process. After that the teacher gave pre-test to got students basic
score using technique that usually applied by the teacher (teacher
learning center). The students’ mark that contained 20 items of multiple
choice. All of the questions were about the story of narrative text. It was
followed by 40 students as the participants of the study. The teacher
provided 40 minutes for them to do the test. The purpose of the test was
to measure the skill of the students in comprehending English reading
38
text and to know basic score of reading comprehension when taught
using conventional method.
Based on the observation in this activity, most of the students had
difficulties to do it. It can be seen from their faced which appeared
nervous and also from their activities. After doing the test, the teacher ask
them to which one of the 20 items of the test was to difficult for them to
do. The students said that almost of the questions were too difficult to be
answered. This condition was not interesting for reading class. The
teacher and researcher decided to use another technique to make students
interested and enjoyed the reading class in order to improve students’
reading ability and comprehend the text, the technique is mind mapping
technique.
2. First Cycle
This activity was done on Tuesday April 21st
2009. Knowing the
students result from the first cycle not satisfied enough. The teacher and
researcher decided to use mind mapping technique to solve the problem.
In this activity, the teacher taught reading comprehension using
mind mapping technique, it made students paid attention. Before the
teacher done the action, the teacher begun to explaining to the students
about mind mapping technique, gave overview, and how to work with it.
First time, the students faced difficulties about the teacher means, but not
long after that, by brief explanation from the teacher students can
understood and got the point of mind mapping technique. It maybe
caused the teacher ever little explanation about mind mapping technique
and gave example how to create in reading comprehension class.
After the teacher gave explanation about the material, then the
teacher divided the students into a group, each group consist of four
students. This activity made the class noisy because they have to change
the seat position in order to made good position to work in group. Then
the teacher distributed the material (narrative text) to each group to
demonstrate about technique that applied. Students still little bit confused
2
and need much help for the teacher. Based on the class condition it was
important by teacher must have ability to manage learning group.1
As we
know that one of the teachers’ roles facilitated teaching learning process.
So, the teaching learning process runs well.
Further result explained as follows:
a. Planning
The teacher arranged the learning instrument such as:
1) Lesson plan based on the teaching material
2) Reading material (narrative text)
3) Test
4) Observation scheme
5) Students’ attendance list
From planning above, the teacher used lesson plan as the form
to implement of action will be done. In the first cycle, teacher used
narrative text focus on story of folktale. Folktale are narrative that
have do not have a singular, identifiable authors, expanded and shape
by the tongues of tellers over time, and passed down from one
generation to the next, folktales often reflect the values and customs
of the culture from which they come.2
In this phase, the teacher began
from pre-activity, whilst activity, and post-activity.
Pre activity is the activity where a teacher must prepared for
teaching learning process. In this activity, the teacher greets the
students, checked the students’ attendance in order to the teacher
knew who the students absent today. In the whilst activity, the teacher
explained the material (narrative text), grammatical features and
generic structure of the text. Then teacher divided students into
groups, each group consist of four students. Then, the last activity is

post activity, in this phase, the students created mind map based on
the story discussed with their group.
b. Acting
In this activity, the teacher was introduced the mind mapping
technique in teaching reading comprehension, gave overview mind
map and how to created this technique. Before the teacher started the
lesson. After that, the teacher gave then reading text (narrative text)
by the title “ Mount Kinabalu” then the teacher asked the students to
read it , the teacher also gave keyword from the text in each
paragraph to help student more easy to understood the text. But, there
were some students who sit in the backside of the class did not pay
attention with explanation the teachers’ instruction, and they tried to
talk each other by her friend, look bored and feel sleepy. To solve the
problem, the teacher gave more attention to the students and
sometimes the teacher walk to behind of class.
After those activities the teacher explained about narrative
text including:
1. What is narrative text?
2. What is kind of narrative text?
3. The characteristic of narrative text?
a) Social functions: to entertain/ to amuse the reader and to deal
with actual or vicarious experience in different ways.
b) Schematic structure: orientation, complication, and resolution.
c) Language feature :
1) use specific character
2) use action verb and past tense ( V2, was/ were)
3) use temporal conjunction (once upon a time, then)
4) use saying verb ( said, told, answered )
All of students paid attention during the lesson, sometimes the
teacher gave some question in order to make students more active.
After that the teacher divided students into groups, each group consist
4
of four students. Then the teacher spread the narrative text to each
group to created mind map, before the students created mind map the
teacher asked students to read the text and gave keyword from the
text. Then the teacher asked each group to discuss the reading text
and got the main idea of the text. The teacher monitors this activity.
Sometimes each group asked the teacher if they faced the
problem. After those activities the teacher asked one of group to come
forward in front of class to present the result of their discussion in
group. Then the teacher asked them to compare their mind map with
another group. After worked in group, students come back to their
seat, the last activity the teacher gave individual test, each student do
it individually and they can not open the book or another. There were
some students who had difficulties to do it. It can be seen from the
class was noisy and students who always made noise tried to cheat
and discussed the answer with their friends.
c. Observing3
1) Teacher still had low preparation in learning tool
2) Teacher less motivate students
3) Some students had not paid attention well
4) Students less active in teaching learning process, although they
still confused.
d. Reflecting

2) Teacher should improve students motivation in learning process
especially for students that less attention.
The teacher divided students into groups, each group consist
of four students. The teacher spread the narrative text to each group to
created mind map, before the students created mid map, the teacher
ask students to read the text and gave keyword from the text. Then

mind map, the teacher asked to find the main ideas of the text, difficult
vocabulary, then converting it into diagram to made students understood
what they read. After that, the teacher gave a test to measure the students’
ability in understanding reading text.
As the previous observation, some of the students said that they
had difficulties in finding new vocabulary. So the teacher helps them to
explain once more how to get the meaning from text. In this cycle, the
teacher focuses more to the lowest students who get low score in the
previous score. According to the observer it can motivated to the students
because the teacher gave more attention.th
This appropriate with the
teaching skill that the teacher should have ability to monitor the students’
progress and make students develop and cooperative spirit in classroom.4

Classroom Action Research.
1. The Result of Pre Cycle
The pre cycle was conducted on Sunday April 19thth
, 2009. In this
activity, the teacher was doing teaching learning process as usual, the
teacher learning process began with reading by teacher loudly. But not all
the students paid attention to the teacher. There were only some students
active to ask questions to teacher during the teaching learning process. in
this teaching learning has passive communication, it means the teacher

The average of students test result of the pre cycle was 61, 8. It
means that the result was low. According to observer, this condition was
not interesting for reading class. The teacher and researcher decided to
use another technique to made students interested and enjoyed in reading
class in order to students improve their reading ability and comprehend
the text. The researcher applied Mind Mapping Technique.
2. The Result of First Cycle
This activity was conduct Tuesday on April 212009. Knowing the
students result from the first cycle was not satisfied enough. The teacher
and researcher decided to use mind mapping technique to solve the
problem.
In this activity, the teacher taught reading comprehension using
mind mapping technique. The planning for the first cycle is the
researcher preparing the learning tools, lesson plan, reading material that
used narrative text to balance with syllabus and comprehension that
contain 20 items of multiple choices. The other is observation scheme
was also prepared by the researcher to observed during teaching learning

students in this cycle, there opinion about reading material that the
teacher had give, the mark they got in previous cycle and why they got
such mark. From their answer the researcher noted some important event.
One of students got low mark in the previous test because they did not
review the lesson at home. They also said that reading was difficult
enough to be learned because they do not understand the meaning of the
text.th
It means that the vocabulary was limited.
