Abstract:
This study on the design and effectiveness of strategic instructional program, focusing on English comprehension among eight standard students in Kadi, Gujarat. Drawing from Gene and Bridg’s theory, the research examines whether strategic instructional program designed with or without Gene and Bridg’s theory influence English comprehension differently. A sample of students participated in a quasi-experimental study, with one group exposed to an instructional programme with Gene and Bridg’s theory and the other without. Using instructional programme was developed and validated against instructional design standards. post experimentation involved administering an English comprehension Test. Results indicate significant difference in English comprehension between the two groups, suggesting that designing instructional programme based on Gene and Bridg’s Theory does enhance students’ English comprehension. This outcome underscores the compare with other research into alternative learning outcomes in English education.
