The study aims to design and develop a chatbot named MUETBot to support the learning of MUET reading skills. This study loosely employs multiphase mixed methods combined with Richey and Klein_s Design and Development Research (DDR) approach in constructing MUETBot. The study was conducted in three phases, namely need analysis, design and development, and evaluation phase. To identify the difficulties faced by ESL students in MUET reading skills, a needs analysis questionnaire was administered to 150 MUET test-takers in Phase 1. Phase 2 adopted the Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM) to identify the functionalities of MUETBot via a panel of 13 experts. In Phase 3, the validity and reliability of the developed MUETBot were obtained via content validation by five experts and User Acceptance Test by 30 students. The researcher investigated the effectiveness of MUETBot in supporting the learning of MUET reading skills among 80 university students through pre and post MUET reading tests followed by a .....
