Abstract

The current study aims at exploring the role of self-management strategies in developing Iraqi students' reading comprehension. In order to conduct the study, the researcher chose a sample for the study to consist of 30 first-year students. This sample was divided into two groups. Fifteen students were selected as the control group and fifteen were chosen to be the experimental group. The control group were taught using the traditional methods. On the other hand, the experimental group received instructions of self-management strategies. The outcomes of the study shows that the reading comprehension performance of the students in the experimental group is much higher than the control group performance. Furthermore, there was a significant increase in experimental group use of self-management strategies on the post- administration of the reading comprehension strategies survey. Thus, the results of this research proves there is a statistically significant difference in the mean scores of the two groups. Therefore, it can be said that using selfmanagement strategies can improve students’ reading comprehension, and it is recommended to make this strategies part of the reading comprehension courses.
