Reading Preferences
Digital links to webpages vs. pdf version
Students surveyed in Online English were split down
the middle over their preference of hyperlinks to
articles vs. pdf versions.
Many cited a preference for color, graphics, variations
in font as reasons for preferring webpages. Others
cited these same factors as distractions and thus
preferred pdf versions.
