Sinopsis:

Read, Play, Succeed: Gamifying Reading Comprehension through TGT explores the application of gamification through the Team Games Tournament (TGT) cooperative learning strategy to improve students’ reading comprehension in English language learning. The book discusses the concept and importance of reading comprehension, the factors influencing students’ reading abilities, the levels and skills involved in understanding written texts, and various strategies that teachers can use to help students comprehend English texts more effectively.

The book further examines TGT as a cooperative learning strategy that integrates teamwork, academic games, tournaments, and rewards to create an active and engaging learning environment. It explains the main components and implementation stages of TGT, including class presentations, team formation, games, tournaments, and team recognition. Through these activities, students are encouraged to participate actively, collaborate with peers, develop confidence, and experience English reading instruction in a more interactive and enjoyable way.

The final part of the book presents the implementation of TGT to improve students’ reading comprehension through classroom action research. It describes improvements in students’ reading comprehension, participation, engagement, confidence, and collaboration throughout the learning process. The book also explores the integration of Quizizz as a digital medium for TGT-based tournaments, offering opportunities to make reading activities more interactive, motivating, and relevant to contemporary educational contexts. By combining cooperative learning, gamification, and digital technology, this book provides insights into creating meaningful reading experiences that encourage students to read, play, and succeed.
