ABSTRACT
This research aims to analyse the Effectiveness Of Instagram For Enhancing Students Reading Comprehension to Students With High and Low Motivation (A Case Study at the 9th Grade of SMPK Santo Albertus Sampit, Kalimantan Tengah in the Academic Year of 2022/2023). This type of research is quantitative using an experimental study approach. This research was conducted at SMK Santo Albertus Sampit, Central Kalimantan, with a population of 9B and 9C graders with a total of 51 students. Then the population is divided into 2 classes, namely the experimental class and the control class as the research sample. The instrument used in this research is a questionnaire. From the tests carried out, it was found that the t test in this study showed that Instagram media was more effective than conventional media, as evidenced by the two-sided P value of 0.002 which is smaller than the value of α = 0.05 (0.002 <0.05), whereas the calculated t value is greater than the t table value (3.225 > 2.00), meaning that H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted or in other words there is a significant difference between the learning outcomes of students' reading comprehension in the control class and the experimental class. The difference in learning outcomes in the two classes is actually the impact of the treatment given to the two classes and shows which combination of media and learning models is more effective in students' reading comprehension. The average value of the control class in the posttest was 76.20 while the experimental class was 85.58. Calculation of the n-gain of both classes with the help of PSS.25 shows that the n-gain value (mean increase) of the experimental class is higher, namely 33.85 and the control class only gets a score of 21.80 on the n-gain of the exam. Based on the results of the calculation of the t-test and n-gain test, it is known that there is a difference in the average value of learning outcomes between the control class and the experimental class and an increase in the average value of the experimental class. those taught using Instagram media were higher than the control class taught using conventional media.
