THE EFFECT OF USING MIND-MAPPING TECHNIQUE ON
ENHANCING NGUYEN HUU CANH HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS’
READING SKILLS
1. INTRODUCTION
According to Barnett (1989), reading comprehension is considered as an essential
part of the teaching and learning process in second language acquisition. Not only
does it serve the important purposes in after the students’ completion language study
at school, it also promotes the literacy skills later. Moreover, the ability to analyze
and interpret written materials is an integral element of success at tertiary level
(Ntereke & Ramoroka, 2017). Nevertheless, in high school’s context, study about
reading comprehension suggests most students find it hard when dealing with
reading texts. They almost do not understand the texts and cannot complete the tasks
due to their ineffective and inefficient strategies (Wood, et al., 1998). L2 research
also shows that one effective comprehension strategy is the use of mind-mapping
(Liu, Chen & Chang, 2010). Generalizing the main ideas of the reading passage and
vocabulary acquisition are somehow struggling for high school students. Teachers,
conventionally, ask students to highlight new vocabulary and they will explain the
meaning of the words, make students learn by heart. The students have to memorize
new words immediately and follow the reading text, simultaneously. Therefore, I
have thought of a new way to help students to not only memorize new words in
context but have a thorough understanding of the reading text.
This study investigated whether mind-map is an effective learning tool to Nguyen
Huu Canh High school students’ reading skills and their perception towards the use
of mind-map.
Research objectives
The study is conducted to examine the effectiveness of mind-mapping on Nguyen
Huu Canh High school students (Grade 12)’ reading skills, following are the two
research questions:
