摘要:This quasi-experimental study examined the contribution of concept-oriented reading instruction (CORI) on fifth grade students' reading comprehension, motivation and metacognition. Participants were sixty-six fifth grade female Jordanian students who matched in gender, socioeconomic status, number of years learning English, and school attended. Students completed measures of reading comprehension test, motivation, and metacognition twice (before and after the intervention reading program). Results of pre- and post-test analyses of female students' responses to the reading test and the metacognition and motivation questionnaires showed that reading comprehension, motivation, and metacognition increased only in the CORI group. This study has revealed the feasibility of implementing CORI in EFL reading contexts.
