Analysing the Reading Preferences and Degree of Reading Enjoyment of B Ed Students

Abstract

Reading fosters the development of intellectual abilities such as
vocabulary, comprehension, critical thinking, and problem-solving
techniques. Establishing a reading culture or habit is essential for
promoting academic, intellectual, and personal development as well
as lifelong learning. Children who read a lot can do better academically
because it helps them build strong writing and reading comprehension
abilities as well as a comprehensive understanding of many different
areas. Investigating the reading choices and habits of student teachers
enrolled in their second year of a bachelor’s degree in education is
the goal of this study. Technology has the potential to foster a culture
of reading as well. The study’s participants still have solid reading
habits and a favourable attitude toward reading activities despite the
advancement of media, technology, and other things that affect their
preferences and reading habits.
