An action research method was utilized in this study for four months to explore the effects of reading comprehension, narrative expression, and reading attitudes. The training effectiveness has been evaluated through direct observation, the verbatim transcription of the interview, video, introspection record, the reading comprehension worksheets, the narrative expression checklists, and the reading attitude scale, etc. The results of this research were as follows: 1. Through the teaching cycle of the DMTP, we found that using image prediction, picture arrangement, Microsoft Word and X-Mind software, and mind mapping, can help to enhance the students’ reading comprehension and memory. The students’ ability of using narrative expression can be promoted by the autonomous operation of the multimedia image cue system and role-play. However, when the audio-book is used to read sentences, it would be easier for the students with learning disabilities to only rely on their auditory sense. Thus, the e-book image can be played, and the students can read the text under the guidance of the teachers. In addition, the benefit of training students to access the worksheets, as well as using the multimedia data via a cloud network, is that the learning materials can be easily saved and the students can freely review the materials at their own convenience. 2. Students can acquire computer-assisted learning skills through the DMTP so that their reading comprehension and narrative expression skills can be enhanced. 3.The use of the DMTP can help improve the students’ reading motivation and attitudes.
