Abstract

This study aims to improve the reading comprehension of grade 10 students at Dez de Dezembro High School, Comoro, Dili, Timor-Leste, through the application of graphic organizers. Carried out during the 2024 academic year, this study involved a sample of 30 students. Data collection methods include observation checklists used during classroom action research, as well as preliminary and final tests. The findings from this two-cycle study show that the use of graphic organizers significantly improves students' reading comprehension. When integrated with skimming and scanning strategies, as well as communicative reading activities, this approach substantially enriches the teaching and learning process. Reading activities become more interactive and engaging, facilitating students' understanding of concise information and connections between ideas. As a result, students show noticeable improvement, with focus and active participation in the lesson. In addition, they become proficient in implementing various reading strategies, resulting in more effective and efficient reading comprehension.

Abstract

In the digital era, English learning has increasingly integrated online platforms and digital technologies, making it essential to create a conducive classroom environment to support effective learning, particularly in improving students’ listening skills; therefore, this study aims to review current research on how digital tools and strategies enhance the listening learning process in schools. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach through a literature review, with data collected from journal articles, books, conference papers, and online sources published between 2014 and 2024, and analyzed using thematic content analysis to identify key tools, strategies, and challenges in integrating digital media into listening instruction. The findings indicate that digital tools such as YouTube, Podcasts, and other applications significantly improve students’ listening skills by providing authentic, engaging, and interactive learning experiences, enhancing motivation, comprehension, and overall learning quality, although their effectiveness largely depends on teachers’ ability to select appropriate content and design meaningful activities. In conclusion, integrating digital technologies can create a more conducive learning environment and improve students’ listening proficiency; however, teachers must adapt to ongoing technological changes, develop creative teaching strategies, and engage in continuous professional development to maximize learning outcomes in the digital era.
