“…Other researchers have turned their attention to special populations of readers to further broaden our understanding of how differences in cognitive capabilities influence comprehension in digital spaces. Findings from one review, for example, highlighted the nature of higher level comprehension strategy use among secondlanguage learners as they engaged with digital texts and new technologies (Liaw & English, 2017), and another study identified important considerations among young adult readers with intellectual disabilities asked to read critically on the internet (Delgado, Ávila, Fajardo, & Salmerón, 2019). Elsewhere, Schirmer, Bailey, and Lockman (2004) outlined the processes of young deaf students as they read and comprehended different kinds of texts; Crow (2008) reported how four types of disabilities (visual, hearing, motor, or cognitive impairments) impacted students' comprehension of online reading materials; and Mann, O'Neill, and Thompson (2018) have begun to characterize differences in comprehension between deaf and hearing children as they search for and read online hypertexts.…”

In this commentary, the author explores the tension between almost 30 years of work that has embraced increasingly complex conceptions of digital reading and recent studies that risk oversimplifying digital reading as a singular entity analogous with reading text on a screen. The author begins by tracing a line of theoretical and empirical work that both informs and complicates our understanding of digital literacy and, more specifically, digital reading. Then, a heuristic is proposed to systematically organize, label, and define a multifaceted set of increasingly complex terms, concepts, and practices that characterize the spectrum of digital reading experiences. Research that informs this heuristic is used to illustrate how more precision in defining digital reading can promote greater clarity across research methods and advance a more systematic study of promising digital reading practices. Finally, the author discusses implications for assessment, research, practice, and policy.

“…Williamson et al (2020) discovered that students who received a web-based education on intrapartum nursing care scored substantially better on theoretical knowledge and practical skills than those who did not get this education. In a research involving clinical nurses, webbased education substantially improved knowledge and abilities about breathing and heart rate monitoring, as well as assessing, treating, and reporting clinical problems (Liaw and English, 2017). McCrow et al (2014) showed that providing nurses with web-based education on delirium is an effective and pleasant way of learning.…”

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has made all lines of nursing education switch to an online system. The use of learning methods with an inquiry approach has been widely used but with a combination of podcast media there is still no research to improve critical thinking of nursing students. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of the learning method with an inquiry approach with a combination of podcast media on nursing students' critical thinking skills and student satisfaction.Methods: This research is a mixed-methods research with quantitative and qualitative approaches. First year nursing students taking community nursing courses consisting of 53 students. The quantitative study used Pearson's Chi-square test and the differences between the dependent and independent variables were analyzed by t-test. Qualitative research using students' opinions about the inquiry method with a combination of podcast media is determined by using a structured interview form.Results: The experimental and control groups also differed significantly in their scores for the CTMS expectation subscale (p: 0.036), achievement (p: 0.016) and utility (p: 0.014), but they were not significantly different in terms of costs (p: 0.071). The students reported that the inquiry learning method combined with podcast media facilitated their learning and management of the nursing process, but they sometimes had difficulty.Conclusions: It can be concluded that the learning method with an inquiry approach with a combination of podcast media improves the critical thinking skills of nursing students. The research implications show how the findings may be important for future policy, practice, theory, and research on learning methods.

Applied Linguistics is a dynamic and interdisciplinary field that examines the practical applications of linguistic theories and concepts in real-world contexts. This study delves into the diverse dimensions of applied linguistics aiming to provide an in-depth analysis of its historical roots, theoretical frameworks, methodological approaches, and practical implications. By examining key areas such as language acquisition, language teaching, sociolinguistics, and discourse analysis, this study aims to shed light on the profound impact of applied linguistics on various aspects of human communication and language use. The current study is relied on a wide range of academic sources, including influential works, contemporary research articles, and theoretical frameworks. The historical development of applied linguistics is traced back to its roots in the mid-20th century, highlighting the major contributions and milestones that have shaped the field. Furthermore, the study explores the theoretical frameworks that underpin applied linguistics, behaviorism, sociocultural, connectionism, and Universal Grammar perspectives, providing a deeper understanding of the conceptual foundations of the discipline.
