This study explains that the social constructivist approach emphasizes the importance of providing opportunities for students to engage in meaningful dialogue about reading. One way to do this is through reciprocal teaching. Supporters of social constructivism argue that besides the individual, the group to which the individual belongs determines the process of forming knowledge in a person. Through communication with the community, one's knowledge is expressed to others so that knowledge undergoes verification and refinement. In addition, through communication a person obtains new information or knowledge from the community. Constructivists start from the formation of knowledge, and the reconstruction of knowledge is changing the knowledge possessed by someone who has been built or constructed before and that change is as a result of interaction with their environment.
