Abstract:

[Purpose/Significance] The social application of technologies, such as generative artificial intelligence (AI), presents challenges for adolescents when it comes to deep reading. In response, China has promoted the Youth Reading Initiative and issued the "Notice on Further Implementing the National Youth Student Reading Action", which outlines five key projects and provides a clear roadmap for action. To thoroughly implement and effectively achieve the goals, tt is essential to clarify the specific path choices and their inherent rationality. vMethod/Process] This paper reviews China's decade-long initiatives to develop a youth reading ecosystem. It demonstrates that the nation has established a robust foundation to support "holistic reading" initiatives and prioritizes creating such environments as its strategic focus. The "Notice on Further Implementing the National Youth Student Reading Initiative" first mentioned both the concepts of "holistic reading" and "deep reading" simultaneously. Thus, in this paper, we first clarified four characteristics of holistic reading, and then analyzed the relationship between "holistic reading" and "deep reading" based on discussions about the real-world impact of the AI era on youth reading. We finally elucidated the logical and practical foundations for the formation of current youth reading promotion pathways in China. [Results/Conclusions] China's recent policies for youth reading initiatives demonstrate the nation's commitment to a "holistic reading" approach that encourages "deep reading" among adolescents. Emerging from the interplay between contemporary educational philosophies and evolving educational environments, this strategic choice signifies a return to the fundamental essence of reading. Cultivating reading can comprehensively enhance teenagers independent thinking, social responsibility, innovative spirit, and practical abilities. However, the development of deep reading skills among today's youth faces unprecedented challenges due to significant changes in media environments and knowledge acquisition methods. Therefore, in this era where technological environments profoundly reshape learning conditions, only by embracing the concept of "holistic reading" can teenagers develop the internal motivation needed to counteract the effects of the current information environment and cultivate their perseverance in deep reading. The progression from "holistic reading" to "deep reading" represents a significant shift from reading habits to reading competence. First, broadening one's reading scope lays the foundation for deep reading. Second, access to quality reading materials ensures effective outcomes of deep reading. Third, peer motivation cultivates the drive for deep reading. Fourth, promoting specialized reading creates societal momentum that propels deeper engagement. Finally, the paper posits that achieving this transformation necessitates coordinated efforts spanning various dimensions, including stakeholder engagement, goal-setting, and resource allocation.
