Abstract

This study investigates the influence of printed and digital reading formats on the reading comprehension of students in the English Tadris Study Program at IAIN Curup. Employing a mixed-methods approach with a Sequential Explanatory Design, the research involved both quantitative and qualitative phases. The quantitative data were collected through questionnaires distributed to fourth- and sixth-semester students, while the qualitative data were obtained from semi-structured interviews. The findings reveal that students demonstrate varied preferences: some favor printed texts for deeper comprehension, concentration, and reduced distractions, while others prefer digital formats due to accessibility, efficiency, and convenience. Overall, the study highlights that both printed and digital reading formats have unique strengths and challenges that affect students’ reading comprehension. These results suggest that integrating both formats strategically in the learning process can enhance students’ comprehension skills and adaptability in diverse academic contexts.
