abstract: Reading is a fundamental ability crucial for everyday life,
including learning. Research on reading comprehension has
intrigued scholars, resulting in various studies to uncover
effective strategies for enhancing students' reading
comprehension. In the Bahasa Melayu curriculum of Malaysian education, fostering students' reading and comprehension skills is crucial. This study aims to examine whether students' Malay reading comprehension could be enhanced using gamification methods. This study employed an experimental design, and a total of 74 students, aged
between 10 and 11 years and encompassing both males and
females, participated in the study. The participants were
from primary schools located in a rural district. An
independent-sample t-test analysis revealed a significant
difference in Malay reading comprehension among participants exposed to different instructional methods. Specifically, participants who engaged with the gamification method outperformed their counterparts who adhered to
the traditional method. These findings offer valuable insights for educators aiming to incorporate gamification into reading comprehension instruction. The implications of this study's findings extend to educational practitioners,
providing guidance on the integration of gamification into
the reading comprehension curriculum. Furthermore, these
results hold the potential to inform the Ministry of Education in Malaysia, supporting the advancement of gamificationbased learning initiatives.
