comprehension and motivation in learning English using Cooperative Language
Learning (CLL) approach.
The collaborative classroom action research was conducted by the
researcher from March to September 2011 to the eighth grade students of SMP

word meaning; (2) Identifying main idea; (3)Find detailed information of the text;
(4) Find implied information of the text; (5) Identifying referent of pronoun.
In this research, the researcher taught reading using Cooperative Language
Learning (CLL) approach. Cooperative Language Learning (CLL) is a variety of
teaching learning approach in which students are divided to work in a group, help
and criticize one another. The primary role of learners in cooperative learning is
as a member of a group who must work collaboratively with another group
member. One of the characteristics of cooperative language learning is a group of
learning activities in which there is learners’ interaction to increase the
motivation. It means that it is through language that learners come to understand
ideas. In delivering ideas, students need to talk and share their ideas, and through
this way, students’ reading comprehension can be improved since the purpose of
cooperative learning itself is to stimulate students’ interaction.
The researcher conducted two cycles of action. There were great
improvements resulted from conducting the action. The result of the action
showed that the students’ reading comprehension improved as shown in the result
of both the observation of students’ activities during the actions and the results of
the pre-test and the post-test mean scores. The pre-test mean score was 58.97
increasing to 75.38 in the post-test. There were also improvements in students’
behavior. During the action, the students paid good participation to the lesson. It
was proven by their activeness in doing all the assignments. They could
collaborate well with other students and fully participate in the lesson.

teacher. Cooperative Language Learning (CLL) can be chosen as an appropriate
approach in order to improve students’ reading comprehension and make the
students more motivated in learning English
