Abstract

Abstract: Reading comprehension constitutes one of the most critical elements to be strengthened during the school stage, considering its significance within the teaching-learning process. The purpose of this research was to analyze the influence of the digital tool Book Creator on the reading skills of fourth-grade students of General Basic Education at the "Isabel Tobar Landázuri" Educational Unit. The study stems from the necessity to reinforce both reading habits and comprehension through innovative technological strategies incorporated into the classroom. To achieve this objective, a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design was applied, utilizing an analytical-synthetic method. The study involved a participating sample of 23 students and a control group of 24 students. Data collection instruments consisted of a pre-test and a post-test comprising 10 questions, which assessed the level of reading comprehension achieved. The results obtained reflected notable progress in the comprehension of narrative texts and written production, enhancing the development of digital competencies, autonomy, and student engagement using the Book Creator tool.
