This study took a sample of 14 experimental class students and 15 control class students. The instrument of this research is a description test which consists of 10 questions related to the ability to summarize the content of the module. Test validity is calculated by construct validity. To measure the validity of the construct can use the opinion of experts (Expert Judgment).

Thus H1 is accepted and H0 is rejected because 0.021 <0.05, so it can be concluded that there is an effect of using the speed reading method on the ability to summarize the contents of the module.
