Training on Strategies for Reading Printed and Digital Texts for Students of MTs Mahdaliyah Jambi City
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: This community service activity aimed to provide training on reading strategies for print and digital texts to increase students’ interest in reading. Based on the findings of a study conducted by the community service team in the previous year, different strategies were identified for reading these two types of texts. Therefore, the findings were considered important to disseminate to the intended users, particularly junior secondary school students. Increasing students’ interest in reading useful and meaningful texts is important, as reading activities are increasingly challenged by the widespread use of smartphones, which provide access to various forms of entertainment, including games, social media, and other digital content. During the activity, the community service team provided materials on the importance of reading, reasons why students should read more, useful types of reading materials in both digital and print formats, and other supporting activities. At the end of the training, students reported a better understanding and mastery of reading techniques appropriate to the medium being used. They also indicated that they were better able to maximize the use of their mobile phones for learning purposes.
