Forty-nine students were selected as the sample and quasi-experimental, non-randomized pre-test and post-test design were employed.

This result implies that CIRC is an effective method to teach reading comprehension, particularly on narrative text. Since this study only focused on narrative text, future researchers might be interested to seek the effect of CIRC on other text genres. Similar study though may be conducted with a randomized design of larger population.
