The Use of Digital Technologies for Reading Tests by STEM Learners

This paper was aimed to examine the use of digital technologies for reading tests by STEM learners. In this paper, the researcher studied how STEM learners used translation tool (Google Translate), search engines and online authoritative dictionaries (Oxford, Cambridge and Merriam-Webster) and how they performed in reading tests. It was found that students preferred to use digital technologies when they tackled reading tests. However, tests should be individualized and that the format of assessment should be changed from multiple choices to graphic organizers.
