Abstract

This study focuses on the role of Extensive Reading lesson to develop students' positive attitudes. The positive attitudes may develop through the experiences of reading novels or short stories. Since they acquire a good comprehension of various reading texts, reading novels or short stories containing moral values may contribute mostly to shape their attitudes. A qualitative study was done which some interviews were done to the students and lecturer and interestingly, in fact it is found that it is highly motivating their critical thinking to come up with some considerations to take into account because they have more spaces to exploit reading to the fullest to be more confidence and internalize what they have read. Keywords: Extensive Reading, Positive Attitudes, Short Stories
