Sid Rayne Digital v. Paper: Which should you choose? The use of educational technology is on the rise. Reeves (1998) states that “media and technology have been introduced into schools because it is believed that they can have positive effects on teaching and learning” (p.1). Students use a variety of media for academics, including e-books, tablets, hard copy books and computers. To explore how effective different media are for learning, 34 undergraduate students read an article on either on a tablet, computer, or printed copy. Once the article was read, participants completed a comprehension quiz and survey. In the survey, participants rated their satisfaction with the medium, amount of effort expelled to complete the task, and difficulty of learning from that medium. We also recorded the amount of time participants took to read the article in each of the three formats. Results showed that students’ comprehension, time on task, and self-reported satisfaction, effort, and difficulty were equivalent across the three media. This research suggests that students learn equally well from the three formats. Students can choose whichever tool they prefer when tasked with reviewing a short reading, knowing that their comprehension will be similar to that of their peers.
