Abstract

Low reading interest remains a significant challenge in Indonesian education, as reflected by Indonesia’s PISA 2022 score of 359, well below the OECD average. This classroom action research (CAR) aimed to improve the reading literacy skills of Grade VII A students at SMP Negeri 16 Pontianak through the implementation of Project Based Learning (PjBL) model assisted by webtoon and storyboard media. The study employed a two-cycle action research design based on the Kemmis and McTaggart model, encompassing the stages of planning, acting, observing, and reflecting. Subjects were 32 students in Grade VII A. Data were collected through reading literacy post-tests, reading interest questionnaires, and observation sheets (APKG 1 and APKG 2). Findings revealed that PjBL with webtoon and storyboard media significantly improved students’ reading literacy achievement. The mean score increased from 47.19 (pre-cycle) to 76.88 (Cycle I) and 86.56 (Cycle II). Classical completeness rose from 9.40% to 62.50% and finally to 81.25%, surpassing the 80% target. Students’ reading interest also improved from the sufficient category (mean 2.81) in Cycle I to the very good category (mean 3.50) in Cycle II. These results demonstrate that webtoon and storyboard within PjBL effectively addresses low reading frequency and limited reading discussion among middle school students.
