Reading Holding Steady, K-12

A new report by the Kaiser Family Foundation shows that total media usage by 8-18 year-olds is seven hours and 38 minutes per day. Time spent with digital media rose, while the use of print media fell. According to Generation M, total media usage by that age group rose to seven hours and 38 minutes per day in 2009 from six hours and 21 minutes in 2004. Time spent with digital media rose in all categories, while the use of print media fell from an average of 43 minutes per day in 2004 to 38 minutes in 2009. The decline in reading print was due entirely to young people spending less time with magazines and newspapers over the last five years, while the time spent reading remained steady at about 25 minutes per day.
