| Summary: | The purpose of this study is to examine the operational activities of the remedial
reading in a selected national primary school in Shah Alam, Selangor. Specifically, its
main purpose is to explore how the teaching and learning process of the remedial
reading is conducted and what are the factors that support or hinder the success of the
activities. The respondents of the study consisted of 27 Year 1 remedial pupils, school
administrators (Head Mistress and Academic Senior Assistant), the Remedial Teacher,
Bahasa Melayu subject teachers of those remedial pupils, School Counsellors, Media
Teacher, remedial pupils’ parents and Ministry Officials who are responsible for the
Remedial Programme in the Ministry of Education Malaysia (MOE) and the State
Education Department of Selangor. This study was conducted as a case study. The study
focussed on the following aspects: how the remedial reading activities were
implemented, and what are the factors that support or hinder the success of the
implementation of the activities. The data collection is conducted through observation,
semi-structured interviews, and document analysis in relation with remedial reading
activities in the sample school. Three types of instruments were prepared to provide
guidelines for the data collection namely, Interview Schedule, Anecdotal Observation
Guidelines, and Document Analysis Guidelines. The documentation and data analysis
was carried out simultaneously to maintain the validity of the data. In order to produce a
holistic thick-description of the research, the data analysis was obtained in two phases,
i.e., during and after the data collection. The impact of the research was observed
through the sharing of ideas in the focus group in order to triangulate and maintain
validity of the data. The researcher employed a narrative approach to report the findings
vi
in accordance with the respective groupings and sub-groupings which is based on the
objectives and the research questions of the study. The result of the overall remedial
reading activities in the school sample has shown that the activities, which were carried
out at the operational/implemenatiton level, have been carried out in tandem with the
Remedial Programme Guidelines of the MOE with some adjusted elements from the
Remedial Teacher’s experieces and creativity to fulfill the requirements and the needs
of the remedial pupils.The findings of the research concurred that Remedial Teacher,
remedial programme facilities (infrastucture), the related teaching and learning remedial
reading materials and support system at all levels formed the four critical success
factors of the remedial reading activities implementation. On the contray, failure to pay
attention to these same four factors could also contribute to the hinderence of a
successful implementation of the remedial reading activities, besides the quality of the
pupils and parental factors, ability of the pupils to understand the phonemic and
semantic system of the learned language, in this case, Bahasa Melayu, and the
interference of the pupils’ native language. Accordingly, all the factors that help in the
success of the remedial reading activities should be strengthened whereas those factors
that hinder its success should be remedied in order to reduce and to completely
abolished the illiteracy rate among the primary school children. |
