They were at least externally imposed to the rules that they accepted as norms to follow so as not to feel guilty. Their attitudes and behaviors toward reading class were good enough as expected by the teacher. The students’ reading comprehension achievement was also improved to 66.73 as their average score of reading comprehension test had gained the minimal passing grade expected by the school curriculum that was 65.
