Effectiveness of Digital Literature in Improving the Level of Reading Comprehension of Grade 6 Learners

This study focused on improving the reading levels of Grade 6 learners using digital literature at Jose L. Perez Memorial School. The respondents were identified based on the Phil-IRI test results, which were verified by a teacher-made test. The LRMDS validated the teacher-made test. This study employed a quasi-experimental research design to investigate the significant effect of digital literature use on learners' reading comprehension levels. The intervention used was digital literature, which is ready-made stories in digital format or videos with subtitles. The analysis's findings attested to the effectiveness of digital literature as an intervention program in improving the reading comprehension level of Grade Six learners. The respondents’ scores during the pretest were described as frustrated based on the Phil-IRI, while this was also identified using the teacher-made, validated pretest. Following the implementation of the intervention program, the post-test learners’ scores garnered proficient remarks. Therefore, it is highly recommended to be involved in the school's reading program.
