This study aims to develop digital learning media based on Articulate Storyline for reading narrative texts for grade IX students at MTsN 2 Medan. This study employs the Research and Development (R&D) method using a modified ADDIE model, consisting of three stages: Analysis, Design, and Development. Research data were collected through student needs questionnaires and interviews with English teachers. The results of the needs analysis indicated that students require more interactive, engaging, and accessible learning media to aid in understanding narrative texts. Based on these needs, the researcher developed a digital learning medium named Interactive Islamic Narrative Text (I-INT): Digital Learning for Grade IX using Articulate Storyline. The developed medium includes learning materials, Islamic story videos, analysis of generic structure and language features, interactive quizzes, educational games, a glossary, and digital assessments. The developed product was then validated by subject material experts and media experts. The results showed that the digital learning media developed met the feasibility criteria and are suitable for use in supporting the learning of narrative text reading for Grade IX students at MTsN 2 Medan.
