💡 Most importantly, we need to teach students to treat paper and screen as different formats and explicitly teach different strategies to read them effectively. When students understand the 'why' behind these decisions, they become more strategic readers across both formats.

Key takeaway for schools...

✏️ Choose paper for texts that need deep analysis and sustained focus.

💻 Digital works well for shorter reads and when easy access is a priority.

Hopefully as educators, we've moved beyond a Digital vs. Paper debate to focus on teaching how and when to use both effectively. This research confirms screen reading tends to be faster but shallower and students aren't aware of this difference in their comprehension or level of understanding.

Thanks @thismighthelpedu.bsky.social I didn’t know about it till you told me and still I couldn’t find it! So great to catch up again, hope next time won’t be so long!
