Abstract: This study aims to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of BRIGHT, a website-based learning media designed to enhance English reading and writing skills among students with intellectual disabilities at Malang Special School. The study employs a pre-experimental method with a pre-test and post-test design involving a single group of 20 students. The findings reveal a significant improvement in students' reading and writing abilities, with the average pre-test score of 45 increasing to 75 post-treatment. These results demonstrate that technology-based learning media can be an effective tool for educating students with intellectual disabilities, enhancing their educational access, and improving their academic performance.
