Abstract

ABSTRACT This research investigates the influence of using Webtoon on students' reading comprehension at the eleventh grade of SMAN 15 Bandar Lampung. The study aims to determine whether Webtoon can enhance students' reading comprehension and motivation. The research adopts a quasi-experimental design, involving 70 students divided into two groups: an experimental group (34 students) using Webtoon, and a control group (36 students) using traditional textbook based methods. Both groups took pre-tests and post-tests to measure their reading comprehension progress. The results show that the experimental group, which used Webtoon, had a significant improvement in their reading comprehension scores, with a pre-test mean of 30.35 and a post-test mean of 56.24, compared to the control group's post-test mean of 47.22. The Mann-Whitney U test indicated a significance value of 0.000, rejecting the null hypothesis (H0) and confirming a considerable impact of Webtoon on reading comprehension. The study concludes that that there is a significant influence of using Webtoon on students‟ reading comprehension at the eleventh grade of SMAN 15 Bandar Lampung in academic year of 2024/2025. Keywords : Digital Comics, Quasi-Experimental Design, Reading Comprehension, Webtoon.
