Descripció
Sumari:The purpose of this research work was to increase the English reading comprehension through the use of graphic organizers. The scientific, descriptive, analytical-synthetic and the statistical methods were used to develop every part of the work. Tests and questionnaires were applied to thirty-six students at the beginning and at the end of the intervention as instruments to collect information about students’ limitation and the improvement of reading comprehension. The data were presented and organized in tables and graphs, after it was analyzed and interpreted, that allowed to draw conclusions and formulate the most pertinent recommendations. The main results obtained showed that students overcome their reading comprehension significantly in three aspects: inference, literal comprehension, and evaluation. The main conclusion was that graphic organizers as a didactic tool stimulated students to be engage and active during the development of the class, allowing them to move from the lower level to the higher level of reading comprehension.
