Abstract

This study aims to: (1) determine the effect of implementing the PQ4R strategy assisted by Literacy Cloud on the reading comprehension skills of fifth-grade elementary students, and (2) identify significant differences between students using the PQ4R strategy with Literacy Cloud and those using conventional literacy media. This research employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental method using a nonequivalent control group design. The sample consisted of two fifth-grade classes at SDN Gunung 01 Pagi, each comprising 25 students. The instrument used was a reading comprehension test based on Barrett’s Taxonomy. Descriptive analysis showed that the average score of the experimental class increased from 57.40 to 83.60, with a gain of 26.2 points, accompanied by a decrease in standard deviation from 18.113 to 10.728. This indicates that the implementation of the PQ4R strategy assisted by Literacy Cloud positively influenced students’ reading comprehension skills. Furthermore, the results of the Independent Sample T-Test showed a significance value of 0.034 < 0.05, indicating a significant difference between students who used the PQ4R strategy with Literacy Cloud and those who used printed text-based media.
