A student is researching whether students learn better with print materials or digital materials. Through his research, he found the following information. Source 1: Article from an education magazine In today’s classroom, more teachers are using digital reading materials instead of print materials. However, despite digital materials’ ease of use, students who read digital texts over printed versions tend to retain fewer details. A recent study showed that students read digital formats faster and could explain the main idea just as well as when reading a print version of the same text. However, students were less likely to remember details from the digital version of a text. Source 2: Student blog entry I have always used printed books in school, and I think digital texts are better. I have never fallen asleep while reading something on a cell phone, but I have fallen asleep with a paperback in my hand. I think that digital materials would be better for my learning experience. Everything would be in one place, so my bag would not be heavy, and I would not forget books at home by accident. Also, I would be able to use annotation features such as underlining and highlighting. Overall, I think that digital materials are better than printed ones. Which evaluation of the sources is most accurate? Source 1 explains the difference between print and digital materials, while source 2 provides evidence from an expert. Source 2 contains opinions, whereas source 1 provides reasons and evidence. Source 1 shows favoritism toward digital materials, while source 2 shares logical information for why printed materials are better. Source 2 informs the reader of the benefits of using printed materials, whereas source 1 provides bias and opinions on digital materials.
