Abstract
The study reveals that most respondents hold Teacher I designations, with 52.5% having MA units. Most manage students aged 41 to 50, with a majority using devices. The knowledge level of teachers in using gadgets to teach reading comprehension is highest in incorporating gadgets, using online resources, involving students in group reading activities, providing personalized learning experiences, and having confidence in using gadgets effectively. The study reveals the benefits of teaching reading comprehension in terms of oral reading, oral communication, reading techniques, literal comprehension, and experiential comprehension. It also found a significant correlation between teachers' knowledge in using gadgets in teaching reading comprehension and their ability to use technology. The proposed learning recovery plan includes workshops for professional development, individualized coaching and support, access to technology resources, curriculum integration, formative assessment and feedback, data-driven decision making, collaborative learning communities, parental engagement, and ongoing support and evaluation. These measures aim to improve teachers' technological literacy and ability to use technology effectively in reading comprehension instruction. A study found that teachers with the highest educational attainment are most likely to incorporate gadgets into their teaching methods for reading comprehension. Teaching reading comprehension strategies, such as skimming, can enhance vocabulary, fluency, critical thinking, information processing, and contextual comprehension. A significant association exists between the advantages of teaching reading comprehension and instructors' technological proficiency. Recommendations include hosting conferences, training sessions, ensuring teachers have necessary tools, teaching specific reading comprehension techniques, recognizing each student's unique learning style, implementing technological standards, rewarding teachers who excel, setting aside money for professional development programs, and prioritizing integrating technology into education.
