Résumé:
Understanding written texts is very crucial in foreign language teaching classrooms. Therefore,
students have to improve their reading comprehension through informal learning by using
technology beyond the classroom. Within this scope, this research aims to investigate the role
of Informal Digital Learning of English in enhancing students’ reading comprehension. It is
hypothesized that informal digital learning may lead to high reading comprehension. To test
the hypothesis, the quantitative descriptive method was adopted through administering a
structured questionnaire to third-year students of English at 8 May 1945 University-Guelma.
The findings indicated that using informal digital learning tools in EFL classrooms can foster
students’ reading comprehension. Hence, informal digital learning allows learners to practice
reading in various formats which can improve their ability to comprehend.
