Abstract
This paper presents an intelligent tutoring system as seen to be successful in assisting in the instruction of basic skill, particularly, reading comprehension. The goal of the study is to develop an Intelligent Tutoring System that will greatly help the Grade 7. The system adapted considerable instructional needs of learners from early development to advanced reading comprehension skills. The developed system provided an immediate feedback to learners upon completion of an activity without requiring intervention from a Teacher. To improve the system, learners and teachers filled out survey questionnaires. The result reveals that teachers and students want the system to be user-friendly, have a user log-in, lesson content with text, audio and video as well as various types of questions in quizzes. They also perceived that the developed ITS is useful and the content is valid thus is very acceptable to be utilized by the learners. In addition, result reveals that student’s reading comprehension could be improved and developed by the proposed ITS.
