Print Isn’t Dead: Students Prefer It Over Digital for Academic Reading, Study Finds

www.cmu.edu: Millennials grew up using technology at an early age, but when it comes to academic reading they prefer print materials over digital formats.

The work builds on prior research showing that in many cases students perform better academically after working with print materials.
