Abstract

The need to create instructional material to aid the low level of reading comprehension among Filipino students is encouraged by the Department of Education. Hence, this study dealt with developing guided reading lessons featuring digital stories type of instructional material to help enhance the student’s poor reading comprehension. The study was carried out through the paradigm of IPO (Input, Process, and Output) and used descriptive statistics to analyze the data. Thirty-eight learners selected through purposive sampling took the Philippine Informal Reading Inventory (PHIL-IRI) to assess their reading comprehension. The results showed that students’ reading comprehension belonged to the frustration level. This served as the Input and was the bases for developing an instructional material (IM) called Guided Reading Lessons featuring Digital Stories. This newly developed IM was assessed by experts in the field using the rubrics on digital storytelling by RubiStar and evaluating rating sheets for print resources adopted from the Learning Resource Management and Development System (LRMDS) Department of Education. After the evaluation, it was evident that the developed material possessed the elements of effective digital storytelling and passed all the criteria of print resources in terms of content, format, presentation, and organization. Suggestions are made for further research, especially on the real contributions of digital storytelling to students’ reading comprehension, not just in English subjects but also in other subjects. Also, it is highly encouraged that the material is implemented and re-evaluated to test its effectiveness in improving student reading comprehension.
