| Abstract |

With the development of the internet, students can access online texts anytime and anywhere. Compared to off-line texts, web-based texts require different reading strategies, such as using sitemaps, hyperlinks, or multimedia. The purpose of this study is to investigate and understand elementary school students’ online reading strategies as they read web-based English texts in the online library. The Online Survey of Reading Strategies (OSORS), which was translated into Korean by authors, was used for this study. After a pilot study, the authors revised the OSORS and conducted a survey to 417 elementary school students. In addition, a second survey and interview were conducted in order to examine some information related to student’s online reading strategies in more detail. Results showed that elementary school students frequently used global and problem-solving strategies in reading web-based English texts. The participants rarely used support strategies because they did not know how to use computer or internet support tools based on their second survey and interview. There were significant relations between online reading strategies and age, gender, students’ English proficiency, and the amount of reading. Based on the findings, some implications were suggested for improving online reading strategies and encouraging a web-based text reading culture. |
