The aim of this study is to analyse the effects of the multimodal texts created from print texts through the addition of digital mode on the students's summarizing skills. Through the ROAR the digital modes were integrated into the print texts and the multimodal texts were produced. There are two such texts, one of them is an informative text, and the other one is a narrative text. The participants of the study were 128 seventh-grade secondary school students from Antalya province (Türkiye) whose ages range between 12 and 13. They were randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups. At the pre-test step both groups read and summarized the print texts. In the post-test step the experimental group read and summarized the multimodal texts created by adding a digital mode whereas the control group the print texts. The results showed that there was a significant difference in favor of the experimental group in the total scores and content scores concerning the informative and narrative texts. On the other hand, it is found that the form and style scores from the informative and narrative texts did not differ significantly between the groups. In addition, in the post-test results of the experimental group, there was a significant difference in favor of the narrative text. The results show that the use of the multimodal texts has positive effects on the participants' summarizing skills. [Note: The page range (21-37) shown on the PDF is incorrect.
