Abstract

Reading is a fundamental pillar of education and student knowledge. However, reading deficiencies still exist in the classroom due to students' inability to interpret or understand texts. For this reason, this research aimed to develop audiobooks as a teaching resource to develop literacy skills and improve reading comprehension among second-year secondary school students at the Unidad Educativa del Milenio Victoria del Portete, in the Cuenca canton. The study was conducted using a qualitative approach and action research that helped identify certain classroom problems. To carry out the process, a teaching sequence proposed by Barriga (2013) was designed, thus defining the activities to achieve this purpose. To this end, a preliminary test was conducted, the purpose of the project was explained, the topic of the Andean Gothic genre and the book "Las voladoras" by Mónica Ojeda were presented, the audiobooks were designed, evaluated with a post-test, and the production comprehension and that the activities fostered their interest in reading. Ultimately, the use of inclusive strategies such as audiobooks successfully fostered students' interest in contemporary reading.
