摘要
With the widespread use of the Tablet computer in school and at home, there is an ongoing transition of reading from print to screen. This study examines the reading comprehension of linear text passages with three media platforms. 23 university students take part in this research. Results indicate that both scores of multiple choice and summarization of reading on Computer screen are significantly better than on Tablet computer. Suggesting that ICT familiarity might be an important factor to the reading performance.
