Abstract This study investigated the usefulness of technology in studentsâ€™ reading effectiveness in Nigerian secondary schools. The study utilized a pre-test, post-test experimental design. The study involved 180 students from senior secondary schools in Oyo State, Nigeria. They were selected through purposive random sampling. Four instruments were used for data collection. Three null hypotheses were tested at 0.05 level of significance. Data collected were analysed using the Analysis of Covariance (ANOVA) and Scheffe post-hoc analysis. There was significant main effect of treatment on studentsâ€™ achievement in and attitude towards reading comprehension in English language. The students exposed to technology strategy obtained the highest post-test mean score, followed by those in textual strategy group while the control group had the lowest mean score. There was also a significant main effect of treatment on studentsâ€™ attitude to reading comprehension. The students exposed to technology strategy had the highest reading comprehension attitude mean score, followed by textual strategy group and those in conventional group had the lowest means attitudinal score. However, educational background did not affect the studentsâ€™ reading comprehension in English. It is therefore recommended that technology be incorporated alongside text books in teaching reading comprehension in Nigerian public secondary schools. â€ƒ
