The Use of Audio-Visual Media in Improving Students' Reading Comprehension and Sholat Movements in Online Learning

“…Students who have a visual learning type will quickly learn the subject matter presented in the form of writing, or pictures. On the other hand, material that is only conveyed verbally or gestures is still poorly understood (Andriyan et al, 2021;Bambaeeroo & Shokrpour, 2017). Students with the auditory type, easily learn the subject matter presented in the form of sound so that the information conveyed by the teacher will be easily absorbed by the child, such as radio/cassette sound and friends (discussion) (Azzahrah Putri et al, 2021;Wulandari et al, 2019).…”
