Abstract

In the era of artificial intelligence, the cultivation of digital reading skills has become a crucial focus for graduate students to disseminate their research findings and a key breakthrough point for cultivating high-quality talents. This study employed a questionnaire survey to investigate the current status of digital reading abilities among master's students at a southwestern normal university in China. The research findings indicate a steady improvement in the digital literacy of the surveyed master's students, with the digital reading environment provided by universities meeting the reading needs of these students. However, the survey also revealed several shortcomings: (1) 10% of master's students feel that their mentors provide insufficient support and guidance in digital reading; (2) 20% of master's students scored low in reading process management, indicating a lack of metacognitive abilities; and (3) 46% of master's students exhibit weaknesses in higher-order digital reading abilities. Based on these findings, the study proposes targeted recommendations to present new approaches for enhancing the digital reading abilities of master's students.
