This experimental research aims to find out the effectiveness of digital comic books in reading skills at SMP Bunga Matahari Banda Aceh in the academic year 2021/2022. The samples of this research were 16 students of ninth-grade students who were divided into two groups (one group as an experimental group and one group as the control group). The researcher administered a pre-test before the treatment to collect data about the students reading preliminary scores. Then, the teacher taught reading by using comics in two meetings at the experimental group and conducted a post-test to collect data about the student's reading ability after they learned reading by using narrative-based comics. Meanwhile, the students in the control group were taught reading by using the traditional method in two meetings and then they were given a post-test. Then, the pre-test and post-test test scores were analyzed by using N-Gain scores. The mean score pre-test of the control group was 75.50, and the experimental group was 70.63, the mean score post-test of the control group was 82.50 and the mean score post-test of the experimental group increased to 89.50. Based on the result of the research, it could be concluded that teaching reading narrative text by using digital comics could improve the student's reading comprehension of narrative text.

Abstract

Wattpad has emerged as a valuable tool in English language education, particularly for enhancing writing skills. Previous studies highlight Wattpad's efficacy in improving writing style, creativity, and students' motivation to write. This platform offers diverse genres and features, enabling writers to share their work and engage with a global audience. Despite its impact on writing skills; enhancing grammar, vocabulary, and structure there's a gap in understanding students' perceptions regarding Wattpad's role as a teaching tool, specifically in writing. Utilizing a qualitative approach with interviews, this research explores the perceptions of five English Education students at Serambi Mekkah University. Their insights highlight Wattpad as a space for regular writing practice, an assisting tool in refining language skills, storytelling and character development. The participants express that the Interactions with readers provide them with valuable feedback, and enrich their understanding of their craft. While Wattpad influences motivation and writing proficiency, it does not significantly impact students' reading interests. This research contributes to understanding Wattpads multifaceted role in language education, offering insights into its implications for writing development and broader exposure to diverse written works.
