The effect of interactive approach Vs. cognitive approach on students' reading comprehension

Abstract EN

This study deals with testing the effect of the contribution of interactive approach and cognitive approach on enhancing students’ level of reading comprehension.

Based on pre-test, two homogeneous classes from the College of Basic Education were chosen as the subjects.

To verify the effectiveness of either approach on promoting students’ reading comprehension one group (experimental) was taught by interactive approach and the other group was taught (control) by cognitive approach.

After ten sessions of class work, the subjects were participated in a post-test.

From data analysis via a t-test calculation, it became clear that the first group outperformed the second one.

Therefore, it was cogently concluded that interactive approach was more effective than cognitive approach.
