High school students lack basic print literacy skills, specifically the ability to navigate and extract information from a magazine, causing lesson failure.
Teachers assume students have basic print literacy (like knowing how to read a magazine), but students raised in a digital age lack these skills, yet no digital tool bridges the gap or explicitly teaches magazine navigation.
