Paper Abstract:
|
Participants in this study (N=1,986) were college students from four different regions of the United States: northeastern, southeastern, southwestern, and northwestern. Using survey methodology, participants indicated technology preferences and frequency of use as well as demographic information. Findings reveal a strong preference for print text; however frequency in digital use for contextualized purposes. Educational implications include professional development for educators to further understand these nuances and utilize tools and technology which most fit course and students differentiated needs. |
