INVESTIGATING THE EFFECT OF EXTENSIVE READING ON STUDENTS’ WRITING DEVELOPMENT
Extensive reading is one of the ways students can learn a language. It is believed that giving students access to books that they can read extensively out of their own volition can improve their language skills. This thesis aims to explore the effects of exposure to extensive reading on students’ writing skills. The participants in this study are marginal students in Sungai Rengas. Tutored by preservice teachers from Sriwijaya Students. The methods used in this study was observation, semi structured open-ended interview, and document collection. The results of this study were that there is a positive effect on students’ writing proficiency after exposure to extensive reading. The aspects of writing affected by extensive reading were notably the vocabulary, coherence, quantity, and to a certain extent, bilingual writing. In addition, the way how students’ reading habit may improve is related to their motivation to read, their interest in certain genres, and the availability of reading materials.
