Abstract
In this study, we explored the effect of the Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition (CIRC) approach on students^ regulated learning in colligative properties of solution. This experimental study involved two groups of students (control and experiment) from a public senior high school in East Java, Indonesia. We found that self-regulated learning of students with CIRC is higher, implying a potency of this approach to be applied to other chemistry topics. The implication of this study for teaching colligative properties of solution is also discussed.
