ABSTRACT: this article provides full information about the effects of digital
media on reading and writing fields. The rise of digital media has significantly
transformed traditional reading and writing practices. This article examines how digital
platforms, such as social media, blogs, and e-books, influence literacy skills and
cognitive processes. It explores the shift from linear, in-depth reading to more
fragmented, hypertextual experiences, and its impact on comprehension and critical
thinking. Moreover, it analyzes how digital tools have reshaped writing practices,
fostering new forms of communication like microblogging and collaborative writing.
The study also considers the implications for education, literacy development, and
cultural engagement in a digitally-mediated society.
