Abstract

This study investigates perceptions of, attitudes toward, challenges in, and how critique is influencing students’ academic and reflective growth. Data were collected according to a mixed-methods study design through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews with 25 undergraduate students enrolled in a Critical Reading course at Universitas Samudra. It has been found that appreciation by the students of the significance of critique in building critical thinking, analytical reasoning, and academic writing exists, but they find it challenging to handle complex terminologies, identifying arguments, and being objective. Time also seems to be a limiting factor. Students perceive that guided practice, group discussion, and further practice would make them more competent in critiquing. The literature addresses the need for learning processes that enable students to transition from recapitulation to critical thinking, and eventually to more intellectual engagement and confidence in scholarship. The literature guides the overarching argument about critical reading and its role in college learning.

Abstract

This study aims to explicitly determine how digital culture influences and contributes to the degradation of traditional English book reading habits among teenagers in Alue Pineung Village, East Langsa District. The rise of digital media in the era of Industry 5.0 has transformed the way adolescents access information and acquire knowledge. Teenagers have become accustomed to brief, fast-paced digital content, which has gradually displaced the habit of reading physical books. To examine this phenomenon, the study employed a descriptive qualitative method using observations, interviews, and questionnaires as data collection techniques, and the data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña. The findings reveal that digital culture has significantly contributed to the decline in teenagers’ interest in reading printed English books. Most respondents prefer digital reading materials because they are more practical, faster to access, and visually appealing. The contribution of this research lies in providing a deeper understanding of how digital exposure reshapes literacy behavior in rural contexts, highlighting the shift from deep, reflective reading to more superficial and instant information consumption. This study offers valuable insight for educators and policymakers to design literacy strategies that balance digital engagement with the preservation of traditional reading practices.
