Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of the Flipped Grouproom learning model on the reading ability of 11th-grade students at SMAN 1 Bengkulu City in the 2024/2025 academic year. The background of the research is based on the students’ low motivation, lack of learning independence, and difficulty in understanding reading materials in English. The research method used was a true-experimental design with the Solomon Four Group design, involving two experimental group and two control group. The instrument used was a reading ability test consisting of pre-tests and post-tests. The results revealed a significant difference between students taught using the Flipped Grouproom model and those taught with conventional methods. The implementation of the Flipped Grouproom proved effective in enhancing students’ reading skills, increasing active engagement, and encouraging independent learning. These findings reinforce previous studies and contribute valuable insights into the development of innovative instructional strategies in English language teaching. The study recommends the Flipped Grouproom model as an effective alternative to improve students’ academic achievement, especially in reading ability.
