× This thesis is aimed at finding out whether interactive learning multimedia technique can improve students’ reading proficiency or not, what happens if interactive multimedia technique is used in teaching reading practices, and the strengths and weaknesses of interactive multimedia technique when it is used to teach reading. The research was done in SMAN 1 Salatiga from December 2009 to March 2010. The subject of the study was the tenth grade students of X-2 consisting of 37 students. It was a classroom action research. There were two cycles done where the reseacher did some steps for each. They were planning, action, observation, and reflection. In collecting the data, the researcher applied several techniques including observation, field notes, interview, questionnaire, and test. The result of the test then was analyzed using descriptive statistics including the average scores. Moreover, the researcher used t-test for non independent to compare the scores before and after the treatments. To analyze the qualitative data, the reseacher described the data by using flow model analysis that used words and sentences to get the conclusion. It consisted of three parts: Noticing, Collecting, and Thinking about available data. It was started from reducing the data, presenting the data, and drawing conclusion. In conclusion, first,there was improvement in students’ reading proficiency in this research. Before the research was conducted, the students had many problems related to their text understanding and their motivation to get involved in reading activity. At the end of the first cycle, the students showed better understanding of the text given. Their proficiency increased as they could define appropriate answers for several types of questions such as: main idea, word meaning questions, and the form of word. Their proficiency improvement was also on their post test marks. The class average increased. At the end of the treatment, in the cycle 2, their proficiency significantly improved. Second, there was improvement of the classroom situation, those were: students’ participation, motivation, and initiative. Students who were passive at the beginning of the first cycle were active in the cycle 2 during the reading activity. Students’ motivation also increased at the end of the first cycle, where the students were not enthusiastic to read at the beginning of the cycle. Moreover, their motivation kept increasing till the end of the cycle 2. Students’ initiative also improved. Students were anxious and shy in sharing their ideas at the beginning of the first cycle. In the second cycle, almost all questions given by the teacher were answered correctly and the students also gave their ideas to use interactive learning multimedia for other genre of the text. In the end of the second cycle all the problems that were found before this research was conducted had been overcome. Interactive learning multimedia technique is empirically able to improve students’ reading proficiency as well as the classroom situation: students’ motivation, participation, and student initiative. In other words, it had attracted the students’ attention so that they were interested to get involved and be active in reading activity. As they were interested, their motivation increased, and their performances were better, finally their proficiency in reading improved. In short, it is recommended to the teachers to use interactive learning multimedia technique in teaching reading, so that it can be the students’ own reading stategies to be proficient readers.
