TRILLOS-PACHECO, Juan José. Hypermedia Reading and its Impact on Reading Comprehension among College Students. Palabra Clave [online]. 2013, vol.16, n.3, pp.944-992. ISSN 0122-8285.

The social relationships now founded on instantaneous, media-based and eminently visual communication have led society into a highly volatile and unstable scenario where the only thing that seemingly does not change are the relations of production with its structures and organizations, which sustain it in a paradigmatic framework that is increasingly technocratic. In this rapidly changing context, the field of education is one of the most affected, since technology implies enormous challenges for its proper and pedagogic implementation in the classroom. Accordingly, this study looks at whether hypermedia reading is changing the degree to which journalism students at the Universidad Autónoma del Caribe in Barranquilla remember and understand what they read.

Palabras clave : Reading; student adaptation; comprehension; college student.
