Abstract

This qualitative descriptive case study intended to identify the reading styles and challenges of twenty first century learners in modular distance learning modality. It prompted researchers to conduct similar or related research aiming at elucidating learners reading styles and experiences while participating in modular distant learning in the self learning module. The participants viewpoints and the development of their opinions on the phenomenon of interest that was researched were gathered through semi structured interviews. Purposive sampling was used to choose participants, who were chosen using the snowball technique, a non probability method based on their knowledge of the study. Triangulation through focused group discussion was done to validate the data. The data was interpreted using thematic analysis. The study revealed that learners have a variety of reading styles, including the Blended Flexible Reading Style, which is a combination of blended instruction and strategy, as well as flexibility, which makes it easy to learn and apply. Motivational Interactive Reading Style, which is defined as learners interacting with what they are reading by learning effective techniques to navigate ambiguity, discern facts from opinions, and accumulate knowledge to achieve a certain goal, and Exploration and Innovative Reading Style which sheds light on potential strategies for enhancing students ability to navigate the new information world. It emphasizes the importance of countries stepping up efforts to combat emerging digital divides. It also looks into what teachers can do to help students navigate ambiguity and manage complexity.
