Abstract

The purpose of this research work is to develop an educational mobile app that is supportive and makes it easier for students in the second year of Basic General Education to develop didactic learning strategies, strengthening reading comprehension in the subject of Language and Literature that guarantees a better teaching-learning process. Reading comprehension is not only essential to understand what is read, but also facilitates communication with other people, and it is very essential that teachers in all educational establishments propose new methodological strategies that promote reading comprehension in students. Guzmán et al., (2017) tells us that: "Reading ability is understanding and personal reflection from written texts, with the aim of obtaining our desired goals." All this process leads to correctly carry out the development of communication; which must be mastered in order to communicate efficiently in all possible contexts by acquiring ideas, especially the most important ones in the text, and being able to establish links. The Tool called App Inventor helps students to improve their creativity and increase their skills, in a more updated way through Tablet or Smart Phones. (Jimenez & Larreal, 2017) In such a way that the main objective of this research is to develop a mobile app, which allows strengthening the reading comprehension of second EGB students in order to help them reinforce their learning in an emotional and active way. For this, qualitative and quantitative approaches were carried out by applying the Postes y Prestes research method (interviews and surveys) to a defined population of 13 students of the Second EGB and the teacher of the subject Language and Literature, which was carried out in person taking proper biosecurity measures. Then we have considered that the ADDIE model was used for the development of the prototype, because it resembles the characteristics that help to easily elaborate the construction of the prototype, while allowing the result of this to be satisfactory. In conclusion, we have developed an educational mobile application to strengthen a better reading comprehension in students of the second year of basic general education in the subject of language and literature, the APP has a friendly interface and is easy to use with the objective that students’ have a support tool that allows them to provide feedback on learning content through readings, phonemes, educational videos, activities and evaluation. The Angliss Reading APP had a favorable reception, these aspects are reflected in the results of the surveys and interviews applied to the teacher and students, which reveal that the use of the mobile application does increase the interest in reading in the students of a more dynamic way increasing motivation in the classroom.
