Abstract

In 2018, the Philippines faced a controversy surrounding the Programme for International
Student Assessment (PISA) results, which revealed a score of 340 points in Reading
comprehension. As we enter the 21st century, the issue of declining reading comprehension
skills has become more pressing, with many individuals being distracted by social media and
spending less time reading productively.


The study found that digital natives tend to excessively use social media for entertainment,
which can be detrimental to their reading comprehension skills if they become too distracted
by the content.


To combat this, it is recommended that students increase their digital literacy and prioritize
their reading comprehension skills to achieve success in their academic pursuits.
