Abstract


The objectives of the research were to know the correlation between students’ reading style and grammar mastery towards the first grade of Vocational high school (SMK) Babussalam Pagelaran Malang. The research design in this research was a correlational design from a quantitative approach. The sample was students from majoring in software engineering class X grade consisting of 48 students. The data analysis was using descriptive statistics and Pearson Product Moment Correlation. The result showed that the first result (on-screen) of sig. (2-tailed) value showed that p-value 0.042 was lower than α 0.05, (0.042 < 0.05) and the second result (printed) of sig. (2-tailed) value showed that p-value 0.07 was higher than α 0.05, (0.070 > 0.05). This means that for the first research problem in H1 which states that there is a correlation between students who are passionate about reading on screen and their grammar mastery at Vocational High School Babussalam Pagelaran Malang was accepted and for the second research problem in H0 which states that there is no correlation between students who are passionate in reading printed and their grammar mastery at Vocational High School Babussalam Pagelaran Malang was accepted. In conclusion of this research was that the more students read text with screen material, the better their grammar mastery in learning English. However, this is inversely proportional to reading printed materials because the results of this study stated that there was no correlation between reading in printed materials and students' mastery of grammar. It means that even though the more students in Vocational High School of Babussalam read with printed material, it doesn't mean their grammar mastery is getting better.
