The Role of Tablets in Improving Students' English Reading Skill

Abstract

The aim of this study is to identify the role of tablets in improving students’ English reading skill within classrooms. To achieve that, I use a mixed method that includes qualitative and quantitative tools such as Interview, survey, observation, and reports. The sample consists of 17 students at grade 7 who read for 55 minutes per day, five times a week. The study argue that teachers should maximize their efforts to find support in order to help them show the required progress. Therefore, I suggest tablet integration into their learning as the idea to initiate as a tool for enhancing their reading skills. The study reaches several results, the most important of which are: first, all students with a learning difficulty or disability should have access to technological means to help them improve their skills. Second, school administrators should support teachers to conduct more studies on their students and encourage them to integrate technology.
