ABSTRACT:

This study investigated the effectiveness of combining brain-targeted teaching (BTT) and content schema (CS) in teaching critical reading in one of a private universities in Indonesia. The design was quasi experimental to investigate the effectiveness of combining BTT and CS. The sample was 60 students. The instrument was critical reading test. The data was analyzed by using inferential statistics both pair t-test and independent t-test. The result showed that (1) there is significant different effect before and after taught by combining BTT and students’ CS (2) the combining BTT and CS is effective. This finding encouraged other teachers to implement combining BTT and CS as one of the teaching strategies.

KEYWORDS:
